Snowy, a cattle dog cross with his pretty markings and cute pink nose, is still very much a puppy at heart.
Pro's:
Playful - loves to fetch and be chased.
Energetic in short bursts (not hyper)
Loves other dogs (submissive) - very playful and respectful.
Obedient (easily corrected)- Sits and waits on command.
Walks well on lead.
House trained - sleeps through the night.
Loves car rides.
Good recall.
Loves playing in water.
Does not bark much at all - has a cute way of 'chatting" when he wants something.
No health issues.
Medium build.
Con's
Slight separation anxiety (whimpers) - he’s learning fast though and waits happily in the car.
Still mouthing a bit (like a puppy) - doesn't bite ! Stops immediately when corrected.
Loves ladies and still cautious of men (but will take treats and settles quickly if you play ball with him)
He would really suit a large property / farm with a dog friend.
He needs loads of love. Very obedient.
Snowy has excellent recall.
He’s definitely mostly speckled red heeler. The characteristics fit him almost perfectly.

Include as many details as you can about your lifestyle, family, accommodation, and work. Here’s some first-hand feedback from our member rescue organisations about what they'd like to see in your applications:

🐾 Details about your family

Add questions into the application.
Fill out the profiles of your current pets if you have any. Understanding the personality of resident cats and dogs will help rescue organisations or foster carers determine if the pet will adjust to your surroundings.
Remember to be respectful and kind in your enquiries. A simple greeting can go a long way! Behind that screen is a real hooman, who loves and cares for the pet you're enquiring about just as much as you will!
Be open and honest - rescues prefer having as much information as they can about potential adopters.
