Stix is a smart, food-motivated Australian Cattle Dog / Blue Heeler mix, about 5 years old and ready for his next adventure. He has completed basic training and already knows commands like sit, lay down, stay, shake, and rollover. Stix stands out with his playful spirit—he thrives on games like fetch, enjoys hiking, and would make a great running buddy. He is crate-trained and house-trained, and he absolutely loves puzzle toys and anything that challenges his brain. Stix gets along with other dogs given careful introductions, but cats are not a good match for him. He tends to be protective around his food, so some experience with boundaries will help him succeed. Stix would fit best in an active household with people ready to include him in their daily routines and adventures. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
