Australian Cattle Dog Blue Heeler Dogs Available for Adoption

If interested, please contact the foster home.

Meet Cinch! This 13 week old male cattle dog (heeler) mix has the most oddly beautiful red brindle coat with patches! Cinch is a confident, bold puppy that can be a little on the dominant and protective side while still being friendly, social and outgoing. He is athletic, strong and super smart! He would do best in a working household with good structure or an active family. He LOVES his people and is very cuddly, soft and gives lots of kisses to them, with a touch of cattle dog clingy. This pup shows the ability to excel as a training partner, good farm dog or jogging/hiking buddy, Cinch would be my pick!

Doing well with working on all the things a good pup needs to know. He has started crate training, house breaking, knows sit and comes when called. He sleeps in a crate quietly next to my bed getting up just once right now to go potty. He seems to do well for car rides. Not seen any signs of aggression or resource guarding. He does get a little jealous of the other dogs getting attention so we have been working on that. His play style with the other dogs is rough and tumbly but he has respected the adult dogs. Cinch is living with his brother Levi and 2 adult dogs right now and does well with them.

He has been exposed to cats and horses with no real reactivity just curious. Also does well with kids and doesn’t seem to do much puppy biting. He loves being outside and will need a fenced yard. He is up to date on current vaccinations and preventatives but will need to continue his vaccination series and will leave with a neuter contract to be done at approximately 6 months of age.

The Australian Cattle Dog, also known as the Blue Heeler, is a hardworking and intelligent breed originally developed in Australia for herding cattle. Renowned for their endurance and agility, these medium sized dogs have a striking blue or red speckled coat and alert, curious expression. With a strong herding instinct and boundless energy, they require mental stimulation and physical activity to thrive. Blue Heelers are loyal, protective, and make excellent companions for active individuals or families willing to provide the engagement and exercise they need.
