Meet Curly – The Cat-Loving Heeler Mix!
Breed: Heeler Mix
Age: 4 months
Weight: 25 lbs
Color: Black and White
Sex: Male
Looking for a puppy who’s as sweet with cats as he is adorable? Meet Curly, a 4-month-old Heeler mix with a heart full of love and a soft spot for feline friends. Curly has had nothing but positive interactions with cats—he's respectful, gentle, and even a little curious, making him a perfect match for homes with cats who are used to dogs.
Curly is still a pup, which means he’s full of energy, joy, and yes, a little mischief (watch your shoes!). But don’t worry—he’s learning quickly! He’s almost fully house-trained, sleeps well in his crate after a few whines, and is picking up on basic commands like sit, no, and leave it.
He loves going for walks, playing in water, riding in the car, and chewing on his favorite toys—especially anything squeaky or cheesy (Kongs are his jam!). After a good round of zoomies, he’ll melt into you for snuggles, belly rubs, or a nap with his head resting sweetly on your lap.
While Curly is still learning how to be his best dog self—especially around new people and dogs on leash—he’s come a long way and continues to improve every day. He’s a bit shy at first, especially with men, but once he warms up, he becomes a total velcro dog who’ll follow you everywhere.
Ideal Home:
Curly would thrive in an active home with a yard, where he can run and explore. He’d likely do best as the only dog, but does wonderfully with cats and would love a feline buddy. With a little patience and lots of love, Curly will blossom into the most loyal, cat-loving companion you could ask for.
If you and the dog are a good match then we'll connect you with our dog's foster parents to chat more in-depth. If both you and the foster agree that the dog is a good fit then a meet and greet is scheduled. We require applicants' dogs to meet ours to ensure they get along. We'll ask you to read and sign our adoption agreement and pay the adoption fee to complete the adoption when it comes time. Our adoption fees help cover the costs of saving more lives! A home visit will be scheduled within one week of your new pet going home with you.
The adoption fee for this pet is $450 (includes a $50 refundable puppy training deposit). Our adoption fee covers the following:
Spay/neuter
Microchip
DAPP vaccinations as age-appropriate for the dog.
Rabies vaccinations as age-appropriate for the dog.
Adopters shall be responsible for all vaccinations after adoption.

PLEASE NOTE: The breed listed is the information we've received from the shelter. Shelters usually guess at the breed, so there is no guarantee, as we don't DNA test our foster pets. Here is some interesting info on breed identification: arrcolorado/category/puppy-dog-tips/
