About Behr

Behr is looking for a special home after a challenging transition. Recently separated from the only family he's known, he needs someone to help him rebuild his confidence with patience and a structured approach. Resource guarding and sensitivity to correction are just a couple of things his new owner should be aware of, making him better suited for an experienced adopter rather than first-timers or homes with children. This adult male Australian Cattle Dog loves to cuddle in his blankets, zoom around the yard, and play with toys. He is both house trained and crate trained, and like any true heeler, he has a touch of stubbornness that makes him all the more charming. Consistent reinforcement and clear rules are key to his happiness. Behr deserves a safe and loving environment where he can truly thrive. Could you be the one to help him find his happily ever after? Foster or adopt Behr, and start making memories together!
