Walnut - mixed nut litter - Labrador Retriever and Australian Cattle Dog Blue Heeler Dog for Adoption in Horn Lake, Mississippi

Meet Walnut: Walnut is about a 12 week old (as of October 15, 2026) lab / heeler mix (best guess) that weighs 15 pounds. This adorable litter of mixed nuts (Hazelnut, Macadamia, Pistachio, Cashew, Almond, Chestnut, Peanut and Walnut) was unexpected surprise for the parents owners. These loved pups were surrendered to our rescue, but the owners are keeping mom and dad and have appointments already set to have them spayed and neutered to avoid this happening again! We are thankful that these cuties will have the opportunity for a great life ahead. Walnut is being fostered in the south and would love to catch the next freedom ride north to Pennsylvania to meet more prospective families!

Walnut and his littermates are all very, very sweet and friendly pups! Walnut is loving and affectionate, and is full of playful, puppy energy. Walnut has been great with all people, including children, and has gotten along wonderfully with all of the other dogs he has been around.

Walnut is working on house training, but as a young puppy, he will need some patience while he continues to work on the process. We would love for Walnut to have a home with a fenced in yard for him to run and play freely as he grows - playing outside is one of his favorite pastimes. Walnut is crate trained and working on his leash walking skills. Walnut is up to date on his puppy shots and will need to be neutered when age appropriate.
