Critter Details

Please contact Lowell Nelson (lowelln@luckydoganimalrescue.org) for more information about this pet.young boy ready to play! AUSTIN NEEDS A FOSTER OR FOREVER HOME!!!! Name: Austin       Best Guess for Breed: Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler mix, maybe some Aussie too Best Guess for Age:  1 year 3 months as of October 2024       SEX:   Male   Approximate Weight:  32 lbs   Gets Along With:    Other dogs! We haven’t seen him with kids or cats but he can be tested if you have them.   Currently Living at:   Texas shelter; needs a foster or forever home in the DC area to get his freedom flight here on Saturday October 26   Austin is Looking For:   His forever family! Look at his great markings and coloring. Those speckles are likely from heeler heritage – so his coat likely covers a high-octane, high-energy body! Heelers can run all day. Austin, as a young dog, might need a lot of  just that – activity. Mere daily walks and/or time in the yard won’t be enough. Austin is looking for someone who’s up for multiple long walks a day, daily trips to parks or other places where he can run, and lots of mental stimulation / enrichment. He would love an adopter who loves being active as much as he does and wants a buddy for fun adventures.   And he wants cuddles too! Most of all, he wants to know he’s safe and loved, where he belongs, and upon whom to bestow all his adoring gazes and happy tail wags. What do you say? Is Austin the one you see running by your side?
