Phoenix

My story

Phoenix is a 6-year-old purebred Australian Cattle Dog (Blue Heeler) who is loyal, intelligent, and deeply bonded to his person. He was raised from a young puppy and thrives with structure and clear leadership. Like many ACDs, he is naturally protective of his home and handler and does best with experienced dog owners familiar with working breeds. Phoenix is house-trained, very food motivated, and enjoys chewing large bones, playing with balls, and squeaky toys. He knows basic commands such as sit and turn around and loves having space to run in a yard. He may bark at passersby and can be wary of strangers, so he would do best in a calm home with consistent boundaries and ongoing training support. He received initial puppy vaccines but will need updated veterinary care and microchipping. I am committed to full transparency and working closely with the right adopter to ensure Phoenix’s success.
