Description
Dog Breed: Queensland Heeler (medium coat). Rosie is a 2-year-old Australian Cattle Dog with a gentle heart and a quiet strength that grows a little more each day. Naturally shy, Rosie has made tremendous progress thanks to the patience and dedication of our staff and volunteers, but sheâs now at a point where she truly needs a home (or committed foster) to continue blossoming.In the right environment, Rosieâs soft personality begins to shine. She thrives on consistency, kindness, and trust, and once she bonds, she forms a deep connection. While she does well with other dogs, Rosieâs favorite place is right beside her person. Sheâs the kind of dog who chooses you, and when she does, itâs incredibly special.Rosie would do best with someone who understands shy dogs and is willing to move at her pace, celebrating the small victories that lead to big transformations. A calm, loving home or a dedicated foster willing to keep building her confidence will make all the difference in her journey.Rosie isnât looking for just any home, sheâs waiting for the one where she can feel safe, loved, and finally home

Breed overview
Overview:
The Texas Heeler is a dynamic crossbreed, originating from the deliberate pairing of the Australian Cattle Dog and the Australian Shepherd, predominantly in, as its name suggests, Texas. This intelligent and energetic canine typically boasts a medium build, with a strong, athletic frame well-suited for an active lifestyle. Their coat can vary widely in color and pattern, often displaying the striking merle or mottled markings of their parent breeds. Temperamentally, Texas Heelers are known for their loyalty, eagerness to please, and high energy levels, making them excellent companions for active individuals or families who can provide ample exercise and mental stimulation. Due to their herding instincts and need for space, they are generally not suitable for apartment living and thrive in homes with yards. While generally robust, they can inherit health concerns common to their parent breeds, such as hip and elbow dysplasia, and certain eye conditions. Prospective owners should be prepared for a dedicated and engaging canine partner.
