Male Dog, Red Heeler
Red Heeler / Mixed
Description:
Say hello to our very sweet Red Heeler mix boy that we call Bert! This handsome boy is only 6 months old and weighs 27 pounds and was born in a barn in rural Middle Tennessee to a Heeler momma who was barely hanging to life. She was nursed back to health and has found a home already. Without knowing who dad is, we might just say that he is a “Heinz 57” Heeler mix boy that is destined to be a 35 pound dog when fully grown. What you realize about Bery when you meet him is that he is a little shy and follows like a shadow. He is needing some very specific one on one attention and confidence building. He would thrive in a home with lots of loving people and even other pets are welcomed like cats or dogs. He is very accustomed to lots of busy hustle and bustle in the foster home and this is a good thing. He just wants to be by your side and follow you around. We will say up front that he does not have a lot of leash practice. His busy foster mom has been moving in to a new house and she fosters cats and other dogs and stays a little tied up with running her own business from home AND being a busy foster to multiple abandoned cats and dogs. Bert is a healthy boy and is neutered and had all his shots finished and microchipped and dewormings done. Bert loves to play and frolic with his brother Ernie who looks more like a Red Heeler even than Bert. If you know about the Heeler breed, you will read that they are devoted and extremely smart. One of the smartest breeds of dogs on the planet. In his foster home Bert is more outgoing than when in new outside the home situations. That will change with some practice in taking him places. We predict that Bert will be one of those never to be forgotten family pets that will stand out in a family’s mind as one of the best dogs they ever owned. BERT IS HOUSEBROKEN AND CRATE TRAINED….and rides like a champ in the car. We love his brindle red coloring and his very unique and funky ears that may change shape still as he grows.
