About Zoey

Adoption Fee: $100
Australian Cattle Dog
Age: Young Adult
Sex: Female

Chicago area, Illinois Zoey, female, 3 years, Blue Heeler Zoey is spayed and up to date on all vaccinations, as well as microchipped. She is around 40 lbs and takes heartgard and nexgard each month. Has not had heart worms. Zoey can be such a loving dog. When she is feeling restful, she will cuddle with you or enjoys just laying in her bed. She loves the outdoors, hiking, and running in the field by us playing catch. She is a very bright dog. She does get along well with our other dog, but she is reactive to dogs outside of our home. We have a 1 year old that she has gotten used to, but has recently become uneasy/nervous of him as he has been more vocal and walking. With other children, she does not like them running around, she tries to nip them. She would do better with older kids. She is house trained and crate trained. She actually loves her crate and lays in there on her own. Zoey has been through training and does know the basics of sit, down, leave it. We have tried working with trainers to assist in the reactivity, and it has helped some but recently she has become more reactive. Leash manners could be worked on, she pulls and gets very overstimulated. She has bad anxiety and we have trialed trazodone from the vet. It didn't seem to help much. She does not initially love new people, it can take her 4-5 times of meeting someone to be used to them. She can resource guard, and will resource guard random things at random times. With her anxiety being increased and unpredictable, we are looking to rehome. She really is a great dog, and has so much love to give but needs someone who is able to help her more with her anxiety and behaviors than we are able to now. $100 for rehome to give her a good family/home.
