Meet Mustang | 6-Year-Old Blue Heeler Mix | 37 lbs of Loyal Cuddles Looking for a calm, snuggly sidekick who will love you with her whole heart? Meet Mustang, a 6-year-old Blue Heeler mix with soulful eyes and a heart full of devotion. Weighing in at a manageable 37 pounds, Mustang is the perfect companion for someone who wants a mellow, affectionate buddy to share the couch—and their life—with. Personality & Behavior Mustang is calm, gentle, and incredibly sweet. While she can be shy and timid at first, she warms up beautifully once she trusts you. Her favorite way to ask for love? Gently jumping up to rest her paws on your chest or lap and gazing right into your soul. She loves belly rubs, head snuggles, and quietly lounging by your side. She gets along well with other dogs and has had positive interactions with kids of all ages. She hasn’t met any cats yet, but her easygoing nature suggests she may do fine with a proper introduction. Daily Life with Mustang House-trained: Yes! Over 95% accident-free Leash walks: Lovely walker—some zig-zagging, but overall a joy to stroll with Crate-trained: Struggling—Mustang has separation anxiety and is currently working through it with support and structure Commands: Still learning! Knows “up,” and is getting the hang of “sit” and “stay” Toys: Not big on toys or fetch—she prefers affection, treats, and short bursts of play in the yard Mustang is more of a homebody than a high-energy pup. She enjoys a couple of short walks or yard play sessions each day, followed by long naps and snuggles. When excited, she does an adorable “cyclone” spin before taking off in a little zoomy burst! Mustang's Challenge: Separation Anxiety Mustang bonds deeply and prefers to be near her person. When left alone, she has shown signs of separation anxiety—including attempts to escape her crate or scratching at doors. She’ll do best in a home with someone who’s around most of the time and can help her build confidence and feel safe when alone. Mustang's Ideal Home Mustang would thrive in a quiet home with a patient adopter who understands her sensitive nature. Whether it’s a retired person looking for a low-key best friend, or someone who works from home and wants a constant companion, Mustang is ready to be your devoted shadow and snuggle buddy. If you’re looking for a mellow, loving dog who just wants to be by your side, Mustang might be your perfect match. Ready to meet her?
