Meet Stewart - Your Built-In Best Friend If you've ever wished you could skip the puppy chaos and jump straight to the loyal, well-mannered best friend stage -- Stewart is your guy. At 8 years old, this handsome heeler mix is the perfect example of why older dogs are such hidden gems. He's crate trained, house trained, and knows how to live in a home. No guesswork, no wild puppy antics -- just a steady, devoted companion who's ready to settle in and love his people. Weighing about 75 pounds, Stewart fully believes he is a lap dog (and will happily demonstrate this if invited). When he's excited, his tail goes full helicopter mode and his entire body wags along with it. His joy is contagious. He's also a great car rider and is happy to tag along for errands, road trips, or weekend adventures. Stewart enjoys being included and is content simply being near his person. True to his heeler roots, Stewart does have a strong prey drive. He'll need a home without cats, chickens, or other small animals. A secure yard and a home that understands his instincts will help him thrive. What makes Stewart special is the confidence and heart that come with maturity. He knows who he is. He knows how to be a good boy. And he's ready to offer steady companionship, loyal friendship, and plenty of full-body tail wags to the lucky family who gives him a forever home. If you're looking for a dog who's already the whole package, Stewart is waiting. 💛🐾 Thank you for choosing SandiPaws Rescue.
