Rusty Australian Cattle Dog / Blue Heeler Springfield, MO

Meet Rusty - A One-of-a-Kind Companion

Say hello to Rusty, a smart, spirited, and striking Heeler mix looking for his perfect match! With a playful soul and a love for tug-of-war and fetch, Rusty is always ready to turn up the fun. But what he's really searching for is his person-someone patient, kind, and familiar with the needs of a high-energy breed.

Rusty would thrive in a home with a fenced yard where he can stretch his legs and enjoy outdoor adventures. He's got an independent streak, and because he can be a little jealous of other pets, he'll do best as the only pet in the home-where he can truly shine as the center of attention.

While Rusty may be slow to trust, once he bonds with you, he's deeply loyal and never far from your side. He's happiest chewing a bone, squeaking a toy, or simply following you from room to room.

Rusty is curious about cats but may be a bit too playful for smaller animals. With the right guidance and environment, he will blossom into an incredibly loyal and loving companion.

If you're ready to welcome a devoted, intelligent, and fun-loving friend, Rusty is ready to fill your life with joy, snuggles, and long walks.

Rusty is waiting to meet his forever person-could that be you?

He's currently loving life in a foster home! To schedule a time to meet Rusty in person please fill out a quick "Match Me" form online at: https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/CAST/Dog to be pre-approved!

All C.A.R.E rescue dogs are vaccinated, heart-worm tested, spayed/neutered, and dogs are microchipped! So all you need to provide is the love.
