About Biscuit

Meet Biscuit, an adorable 10-week-old Heeler mix eagerly searching for his forever home. Found abandoned outside a vet office with his siblings, he’s already showing remarkable potential. Biscuit is smart and quick to learn, fully crate trained with only two accidents in foster care, which is impressive for his age. He enjoys cuddling, playing, and napping, embodying all the delightful qualities of a puppy. Biscuit is friendly towards both people and other dogs, making him a perfect companion for a family. However, adopting him requires understanding the needs of working dogs; he’ll thrive in an active household that can provide mental stimulation and a secure yard. Biscuit won’t be suited for apartment living as he could start herding behaviors without the right environment. He will be ready for adoption starting Monday, 8/17, so you can apply now to bring him home! Ready to make him part of your family? Click apply to start the adoption process.
