Blue is a 1-year-old Blue Heeler mix (born 12/13/2024) and weighs about 70 lbs. He’s a super lovable guy with all the classic herding dog traits—smart, active, and always looking for something to do. He loves to play (especially soccer!) and needs plenty of daily exercise to keep him happy. Blue would do best as an only dog. He has a high prey drive and tends to see smaller dogs as something to chase. He’s fully potty trained and crate trained, and he picks up on things quickly—but if he doesn’t have enough structure or activity, he’ll definitely find his own “job.” He’s very athletic but also a big snuggle bug who loves to flop upside down and soak up attention. He can be a bit of a goofy oaf and doesn’t always realize how big he is. Blue does well with older kids, though he may try to herd them by nipping at their heels. He’s great for grooming but does have sensitive skin, so he’ll need a hypoallergenic shampoo. He’s also done well on food for sensitive skin and stomachs. Overall, Blue is a sweet, fun-loving dog who just needs an active home with some structure to really thrive.
