Skelly is a 2-year-old blue heeler mix with a big, teddy bear personality who’s eager to find his forever home. At 55 lbs, he’s a bundle of energy and loves nothing more than a good game of fetch. He’ll often turn it into keep-away with the other dogs, showing off his playful side. Skelly shines around other dogs and absolutely adores children. He gets along with some cats, but can get a little too excited and rambunctious around them, so it’s best to be cautious if you have feline family members. Water and pools intrigue him—he’s curious but sometimes gets nervous around them. Walks? He’s always game, whether it’s a backyard stroll or a day-long hike. Skelly has a loyal streak; he follows staff everywhere, making sure to greet everyone with his goofy expressions and never missing a moment to make people laugh. He thrives with active families who are ready for adventures and plenty of playtime. Vocal and expressive, he happily announces mealtimes and mornings, earning the title of "the big rooster" at the shelter. Skelly will make a devoted companion for anyone who wants a playful, talkative, and affectionate dog ready to be your sidekick every step of the way. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
