Boshi - Australian Shepherd and Australian Cattle Dog Blue Heeler Dog for Adoption in Pittsfield, Illinois

Boshi is a striking black and white mix of an Australian Cattle Dog and an Australian Shepherd, with a sleek, athletic build and intelligent, expressive eyes. His coat is a patchwork of inky black and snowy white. Boshi carries himself with a quiet alertness, often hanging back a bit when meeting new people, his cautious eyes observing everything from a safe distance. But once he senses kindness--and especially if you offer a belly rub--his demeanor melts into sweet affection. Boshi will roll over with a soft sigh, tail thumping, revealing his trust and loyal heart.
