Due to no fault of his own, Blue is still looking for a home of his own.
He is a 10ish month old neutered male cattle dog type. Blue is ridiculously social with people, all dogs (male female, large, small, intact or not), and cats. He can be a bit exuberant in his friendliness with people, but has spent a good amount of time around other dogs to learn some manners and respect of boundaries.
He is crate trained, house trained, walks nicely on a flat collar, recall training has been worked on, and needs continued work, but he is super easy walking in a pack of dogs and sticks close. He’s young, so needs to see more of the world slowly and thoughtfully, he is too lovely to be wrecked by a dog attack at a dog park.
Blue is medium energy (for a working style dog), down for a good hike or run, and then happy to hangout. He does however need sufficient exercise every day. If you are clear and fair, he is a super easy chill guy.
Blue showed us a bit of resource guarding when he first came to us, but it was very specific. We have done some careful work on it, and it is now easily managed/a non issue.
Ideal home will be with active family or person who lives out of the city, who spends a lot of time outdoors, and who wants the brains, energy, and push of a heeler but *nice*. This breed of dog is not for the first time dog owner.
Heeler or herding breed experience preferred.
