About Hendrix

Adoption Fee: $100
Australian Cattle Dog
Age: Adult
Sex: Male

Hendrix is a 5 year old red heeler. I rescued him a little over a year ago with plans to temporarily give him a home but I had to move recently and I am heartbroken he cannot come with me. He is a ball of energy, always smiling, loves jumping in the air for a ball. He was never properly trained or socialized until he was 4 years old so I worked with him everyday on obedience and proper socialization. He can be reactive around smaller dogs but with proper focus and some yummy treats he has been able to create a positive association with the real world. He can get anxious around loud settings or fast movements. He is crate trained and place trained. He is truly a big sweetheart that was given up on too soon when he was first adopted by his original owner. He loves to protect and loves without barriers. Always at my hip, following me to the bathroom, throughout the kitchen, etc. He is a higher energy heeler and does need a lot of exercise both mental and physical. He loves some good mental stimulation, car rides, loves water, and he loves hikes. His vaccinations are up to date and he is microchipped. He has been around both female and male dogs and has not had any aggression issues with any of them but has been an 'only dog' his whole life so he has never lived with another dog. My mom did stay with me for a couple weeks with her 25 pound female corgi/lab/weiner mix and they got along just fine in the same setting. I just want him to be in a home where he knows he is loved, cared for, and is getting adequate care according to his energy and breed specifications. I truly will never forget our year together, he has the kind of personality that leaves a mark on your heart for sure.
