Bernard (also known as Goose) is a confident, friendly Blue Heeler mix with a big presence and an even bigger fondness for the people around him. True to his breed, he's sharp, attentive, and happiest when involved in daily life, showing off his affectionate side and engaging spirit. He already knows cues like "sit" and pays attention to guidance, thriving on structure and routine. Bernard brings plenty of energy and drive to the table, so he's best suited to someone who enjoys active days, thoughtful training, and setting clear expectations. He tends to get excitable and vocal when other dogs are nearby, so ongoing training and established boundaries will set him up for success. Bernard is currently carrying some extra weight and could have mild joint stiffness, but regular exercise and weight management should help him feel his best. If you're looking for a loyal companion who loves to be included in the mix, Bernard will gladly step up. Start your journey together! Apply now.
