Labrador Retriever and Australian Cattle Dog Blue Heeler Dogs Available for Adoption

Hi there... I’m Buster Brown and I am a special little soul that is looking for a super special family to love. I was born around December 1st and, before I even opened my eyes to the world, I was facing one of the harshest upcoming Winter storms in Nashville TN history. My mom and the four of us puppies were discovered in a barn, bundled together against the snow and ice. It wasn’t the cozy beginning every puppy dreams of — but it makes the warmth I feel now that much sweeter.My mama is a gorgeous 80-pound Lab mix, and word on the street is that Dad was likely a Heeler. That means I’ll probably top out around 55 pounds — the perfect size for couch cuddles and outdoor adventures. Right now, at 8–9 weeks old, I’m a petite 11 pounds of potential. What makes me different? My foster mom says I have a beautifully calm spirit . While my siblings are busy roughhousing sometimes they decide to pick on me. I don't know why but I am not a rough guy honestly. I am a lover, not a fighter. I play quietly and am very easy in the puppy while my foster mom is away for the day. I hardlyl ever bark or make loud fussy noises. I’m often off to the side, quietly watching the world. I’m independent, thoughtful, and perfectly content entertaining myself. I wouldn’t mind having a dog sibling... but I also wouldn’t mind being your one and only. I’m the kind of puppy who will grow into a steady, loyal companion. I’m smart, observant, and eager to learn. Give me a little guidance and I promise I’ll make you proud.

If you feel like there might be a spot in your heart for a sweet, steady boy like me, please email Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrtennessee@gmail.com. I’m available for adoption locally in Tennessee, or I can travel to the Northeast on March 6th. The rescue makes long-distance adoption simple — you can talk directly with my foster family and see videos of me before making your decision. I started life in a snowstorm... but I know my forever story will be filled with sunshine.

ADOPTION FEE REQUIRED. Contact ccrtennessee@gmail.com.

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.
