Labrador Retriever and Australian Cattle Dog Blue Heeler Dogs Available for Adoption in Maryville, Tennessee

⚽🐶 Patches: The One-Dog Soccer Team 🐶⚽

Patches is a 6-year-old Heeler/Labrador mix, 63 lbs, and fully committed to a lifelong relationship with his toys. His signature move? Sprinting around the yard with a soccer ball proudly carried in his mouth like he just scored the winning goal. He's still polishing up the "drop it" portion of fetch, but enthusiasm has never been his problem. Patches gets along well with other dogs, but truthfully, he'd rather they admire his athletic performance from the sidelines.

Patches is:
✨ Extremely toy driven (soccer balls preferred)
✨ Independent, happy, and endlessly entertaining
✨ Good with other dogs -- great with an audience
✨ Active, playful, and full of character
✨ 63 lbs of pure dedication to the game

Patches is looking for a home that appreciates a dog with hobbies, passion, and a love for the spotlight.
