Praline is a fun-sized Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler and Chihuahua mix with a brindle and chocolate coat. She’s about as resilient as they come—originally from New Mexico, she landed in rescue after being left behind at an overcrowded shelter when her puppies were taken elsewhere. Life handed her a tough start, so she prefers a quiet, stable adult-only home with a yard where she’s not pushed into busy or overwhelming environments. At first, Praline hangs back and may not give you much of a greeting. Give her time, and you’ll see her silly, affectionate side come out. She loves car rides, wrestling with toys, and lounging on the couch next to her trusted people. She’s excellent with other dogs and really blossoms with canine friends. Crate and potty training are solid, and she’ll nap calmly for hours. Praline’s happiest at home or roaming the yard and won’t require long leash walks or city outings—routine and calm suit her best. Snacks, toys, and a gentle approach are the keys to Praline’s heart. Once she bonds to you, she’ll be your steady, loving shadow. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
