Shortbread - Beagle and Australian Cattle Dog Blue Heeler Dog for Adoption in Shorewood, Illinois

Attention all Beagle lovers

We have a batch of beagle pups who are finally ready for adoption!!

Meet Shortbread!!

Shortbread is 8 wks old and weighs 7 lbs. The DNA results are in!! Shortbread is a Beagle/Blue Heeler/American Eskimo mix. Mama Cookie is 18 lbs, so we are estimating adult size will be around 30 lbs or less.

Shortbread is a little on the shy side, but is getting more comfortable being cuddled and loved on. She is a follower and just goes with the flow. She just started going outside today, so potty training is just starting.

All the pups are very happy, playful pups, but settle down for several naps during the day after their belly is full and they've had a good play session. They sleep all night in a large pen with all their siblings.

If you are looking for a smaller medium sized pup, who is very playful, but not over the top in the energy dept, Shortbread is your gal!!

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 Beagle is a beloved breed known for its friendly nature, curious personality, and distinctive howl. These small to medium sized dogs are incredibly sociable and get along well with both humans and other pets. Beagles are curious and energetic, always eager to follow a scent with their incredible sense of smell, making them excellent hunting and tracking dogs. Their short coat is easy to maintain, and they are adaptable to various living environments, making them popular companions for families and individuals alike.
