Petey - Papillon / Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler / Mixed (long coat) Dog For Adoption

View more

adorable, polka-dotted little bundle of fun is estimated to be around 2-3 years old, and can't wait to be your new best friend. He has a big plumy tail that he wags all the time, and a cute overbite like Geena Davis. Petey is a petite guy and weighs about 11lbs. Petey was found as a stray with a fractured leg and was brought to a local shelter. We were able to work together with the UC Davis Fracture Program to get surgery to fix his leg. After some crate rest and TLC in a foster home, h e’s all healed now and ready to find his fur-ever home! Petey is a high-energy guy who is looking for an active family that can keep up with his ever-curious mind and busy body. He loves hanging out in the yard playing with toys, and snoozing in the shade or in a doghouse when he’s ready to take a break. He is an affectionate and fun guy who bonds strongly with his people and is happiest when he can join you for whatever the day brings. He loves going for walks, and with his energetic nature, he can go block after block without getting tired. He would be a great hiking buddy for someone looking for a compact adventure buddy. Petey loves other dogs and has been doing well living with other small dogs. He can be a little much for low-energy or shy dogs, so he would do best with other active dogs who can match his energetic play style. We haven't seen Petey around cats, but he may do well with dog-savvy cats who can hold their own with a playful dog. Petey hasn't been around kids, but he may do well with kids 10 years old and older. Petey is house and crate trained. He quietly sleeps overnight in his crate and is content to hang out in there while his foster mom is gone for short periods during the day. Petey has a voice and isn't afraid to use it when he is excited, so he wouldn't be a good fit to live in an apartment.

Dogs are tested for heartworm, started on preventatives, and given a DAPP vaccination. Adult dogs are up to date on their vaccinations prior to adoption. Puppies will be current on the vaccinations appropriate to their age. The adopter is responsible for additional vaccinations as necessary after the adoption.
