Baxter Australian Cattle Dog / Blue Heeler & Shepherd Mix Pottsville, PA

Baxter is a two year old Blue Heeler/Shepherd mix. He is neutered and housebroken. Baxter is the type of dog that is very playful. He loves squeak toys, he LOVES walks, and is also very good as a companion for car-rides! Baxter is inquistive and young and sometimes this gets Baxter in to trouble. He would do excellent in an active home and one with some redirection, guidance and obedience training. We feel Baxter would excel since he is so eager to please and is a quick learner. He is NOT the type of dog that would do well as a couch potato only. He needs lots of exercise and either a secure fenced yard or leashed walks. Since he is a herding breed, being chained up, would not benefit Baxter.  Baxter would do well in a home with a female dog but we feel a home with no male dogs would be best for him. Baxter  is very good with cats, and is content to nap nearby feline companions. BAXTER WOULD NOT BE RECOMMENDED FOR A HOME WITH KIDS! For more information on Baxter, please email shelter_dogs1@hotmail.com or call the shelter and ask for Tricia. Baxter looks forward to meeting you! Given the time and energy, Baxter will be your Best Friend.
