Melody's Story
Melody is the only puppy left in her litter!<br/><br/>This CUTIE is a 10 week old, Australian Cattle Dog, Heeler, and Border Collie mixes. The one thing those breeds have in common is HERDING. This is something that comes natural to them and shouldn't be punished. They like to control their environment and may herd kids or other animals by nipping at their feet. These breeds get labeled as biters since adopters aren't aware and puts a “bite history” on their record making it difficult to adopt out. <br/><br/>Ideally we would LOVE an adopter with experience with these breeds! <br/><br/>She will need consistent training since they are very intelligent. With these breeds, they are high energy breeds. They will NEED DAILY MENTAL AND PHYSICAL STIMULATION. If they are bored, they can be destructive. With them being smart, they are usually eager to please. This makes training easier for adopters. <br/><br/>As always, when adopting a puppy, you should also plan to socialize them so they succeed as an adult. This helps them have positive experiences and develop coping skills. <br/><br/>We are a 100% volunteer 501c3 and rely solely on donations of our supporters and volunteers KLN 16814
