Australian Shepherd and Australian Cattle Dog Blue Heeler Dogs Available for Adoption in St. Peters, Missouri

Available in Denver!

Riley is the most adorable 5 1/2 pounds of cuddles and kisses you could ask for. He is 15 weeks old right now. Dad was a miniature Australia shepherd (15 pounds) and mom was a 20-25 pound cattle dog mix - so he won’t be too big. He was a part of an accidental litter. He is half the size of his siblings in the litter, but has the personality to make up for it! He is outgoing and affectionate. Riley loves to give kisses and loves to get and give cuddles. He has been doing so great in his foster home- he uses the doggy door 100% of the time and no accidents inside with consistency and paying attention! Riley likes to be where you are and also loves to play with his toys! He makes quick work of emptying his toy box! He is doing great learning basic puppy manners and has enjoyed meeting other dogs, cats, and kids! He loves everyone he meets and after about ten minutes he is showering you in kisses!
