At just 6 weeks old, Lizzy the Australian Shepherd/Heeler mix has already shown incredible resilience. She and her siblings were heartbreakingly found dumped on the side of the road, left to fend for themselves far too young. But despite her rough start, Lizzy hasn’t let it dim her sweet, loving spirit.

This little girl is the perfect mix of cuddly and curious. She absolutely loves snuggling up close and soaking in all the affection she can get, but she’s just as happy exploring her surroundings and discovering the world one tiny paw step at a time. Toss her a ball, and you’ll see her playful side shine—she’s already a big fan of playtime!

Lizzy is current on her vaccinations and is on the path to a happy, healthy future. Like any young puppy, she’ll need a family ready to guide her through training, patience, and lots of love as she grows.

If you’re looking for a loyal companion who will stick by your side, fill your home with love, and grow up to be your best friend, Lizzy is your girl.

Medical & Spay/Neuter Information:
Most puppies travel with two rounds of vaccines, and sometimes three. Occasionally, we may not have had a puppy long enough for a second round.

Puppies under 6 months of age are not spayed or neutered. Spaying or neutering is a required condition of adoption and must be completed by the puppy’s first birthday or by your veterinarian's recommendation, at the adopter’s expense. Out-of-state surgery costs are not included in the adoption fee.

Breed Disclaimer:
Breed is our best estimate based on the puppy’s appearance and, when known, the mother’s appearance. Fathers are rarely known, and litters can have multiple fathers, meaning puppies may be half-siblings with different breed mixes.

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.

The Australian Shepherd is a highly intelligent and energetic herding dog known for its loyalty and work ethic. Originating in the United States, despite its name, this breed is prized for its agility, trainability, and versatility in various dog sports and activities. Australian Shepherds have a distinctive medium length coat that comes in different colors, often with unique merle patterns. With proper training, socialization, and exercise, these dogs make excellent companions for active families and individuals seeking a devoted and playful four legged friend.
