Patsey Australian Cattle Dog / Blue Heeler Adamstown, MD

Here comes Patsy—a bona fide cattle dog movie queen!

Patsy is an approximately 5-year-old 35 lb female ACD. She is spayed, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations and preventatives. Patsy is a loving and affectionate girl, who would make a perfect family dog.

Before entering foster care, Patsy didn't have the opportunity to live her best life. She lived in an outdoor kennel with at least 11 other dogs and had multiple litters of puppies. Patsy has faced a steep learning curve while in foster care. She has learned to live in a house with other dogs, sleep in a soft bed, wait her turn for food, and eliminate outside. The good news is that her tough past hasn’t dampened her spirit! Patsy has a sweet and sunny disposition and is intelligent, resilient, and eager to learn. She absolutely loves people and always wants to be by your side. Patsy would be a great dog for a family with children or even toddlers. She would also be a great fit for an older person or a relaxed home. She has low to medium energy and happily becomes a couch potato after her daily walks.

Patsy experiences occasional anxiety, especially when overwhelmed by the chaotic behavior of her zany foster siblings. While she is sociable with other dogs, she prefers a quieter environment and may thrive as an only pet. Patsy has shown interest in chasing cats and should therefore live in a cat-free home.

Patsy is more than just a pretty face! She's a loving, loyal, and resilient girl who deserves a chance at her happily ever after. Despite her tough start, she's blossomed into a wonderful companion. Could you be the one to give her the forever home she deserves?

Patsy is being fostered in Adamstown, MD (contact: kirkdruey@gmail.com).
