DJANGO - AUSTRALIAN CATTLE DOG/BLUE HEELER / MIXED DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler / Mixed. Adoption Fee: $160.00. Django is affectionate, loyal, and mellow Django is affectionate and playful, best for experienced adopters in quiet environments. He enjoys fetch, training, and thrives on structure. Django is a sensitive and loyal soul who just needs a patient hand and a loving heart to bring out his best. Shy at first, Django truly blossoms into a devoted companion once trust is built. He enjoys peaceful walks in low-traffic areas, loves having his own space for meals and toys, and prefers calm, gentle handling. This special boy would thrive in a home without other pets, where he can soak up all the love and attention as your one-and-only four-legged friend. Back Story Django grew up in a wonderful home. His owner got married, and the new man of the house took Django’s place. He decided Django had to go. Django was dumped into a terrible situation, which left him confused and traumatized. Since being here, he has healed and loves all humans and dogs on the ranch. Behavior Profile Once Django chooses you, you’ve got a best friend for life. He adores quiet moments, gentle affection, and is always ready for a game of fetch or a romp in the yard. A professional snuggler with excellent house manners, Django is also a quick learner who thrives on praise and loves to work alongside you. His future adopter will not only gain a loyal companion but a partner in joy, play, and life’s quieter moments. Django’s perfect match would be an experienced, dog-savvy adopter or a calm, adults-only household. A secure yard, patience, and a commitment to positive reinforcement training will set him up for success. If you’re looking for a devoted sidekick who will reward your patience with unwavering loyalty, Django may just be your perfect match.
