Bora - Australian Cattle Dog Blue Heeler and Labrador Retriever Dog for Adoption in San Diego, California

Hello! My name is Bora, and Im a delightful Aussie Mix, with a little dash of Lab in my lineage, from the wonderful Island Litter. I entered the world on February 25, 2026, and Im growing up fast, though my foster family thinks I'll stay a perfectly portable size, likely just 30-45lbs Im all grown up. My journey started when my momma and I, along with my littermates, were scooped up by caring hands, and now Im blossoming into a confident and curious little guy ready to find my forever home.


* Little Genius Im a super smart cookie and incredibly food motivated, which makes learning new things a fun game for me!
* Adventure Seeker Whether its exploring the big, wide world of the yard or venturing out for a walk, I love to discover new sights and smells.
* Playful Pal I adore romping around with my two foster siblings, but Im also perfectly happy entertaining myself with my favorite toys when its solo playtime.
* Belly Rub Enthusiast Few things make me happier than a good, long belly rub; its my absolute favorite way to unwind and connect.

Im really hitting my stride with house-training and am almost fully potty-trained now, which is pretty great for a pup my age! Walks are becoming a joy as I continue to learn proper leash manners, soaking up all the new experiences outside. My confidence shines through in every interaction, making me a friendly playmate for other pups and a happy companion for people. Because Im so eager to learn and please, Id thrive in a home thats excited to continue my training journey, helping me grow into the very best version of myself.

My adoption fee is $550, this fee covers my first year of vaccinations, spay/neuter, and microchip. Do I sound like the dog for you? You can fill out an application to adopt me at http://www.thecantufoundation.org/adopt.html
