Adopt Velvet a Black - with White Australian Shepherd Australia

This little girl is Velvet. She is 1 of a litter of seven pups. These pups (5 girls and two boys) were thrown out at a truck stop on Interstate 35 in Missouri when they were about six weeks old. We estimate their date of birth at August 20th. They are Australian Shepherd Australian Cattle Dog (Blue Heeler) mixes so they should be med sized adults between 35 and 55lbs adult. Velvet is a nice snuggler but is also curious and isn t afraid to toddle around and explore new areas and pick up new toys. Aussies and Heelers are working dogs and smarter than many people. They are active affectionate and loyal. They need companionship exercise and a job to do. They are not suited to apartment or condo living. They need fenced yards to exercise in. These breeds excel at agility and advanced obedience training. Both breeds were bred to herd cattle or young children that run and squeal if there aren t any cattle nearby....
