Description
Dog Breed: Queensland Heeler (medium coat). Meet Abby! She is a 6-year-old, 55 lb. Heeler who was a service dog before being surrendered due to unfortunate circumstances. She's now resting comfortably in foster care while she waits for her next adventure. Abby is house and crate trained, and great with kids, cats, and other dogs. She loves being on the couch and following her people around everywhere. The most important thing in the world to Abby is her tennis ball. She loves to play with it by herself, bouncing it up and down on the ground to catch it again and again. She is a very happy girl with an outgoing and affectionate personality. Considering her breed, Abby is very laid back. Abby is now spayed, current on vaccines, microchipped, and heartworm negative. She is also on prevention for heartworms, fleas, and ticks. If you're interested in adding this very well-mannered girl to your family, please apply online. Her adoption fee is $275.

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.
