Meet Honey

Welcome Honey.  We had a long-time, repeat foster in the Southern California area step up for this 1 year old, 38lb cattle dog and boy oh boy is she sweet. Stumpy tail lovers, especially when the nub starts wagging and wiggling…this girl is for you. Here is what her foster has to report after getting to know her just a few short days: “Honey is an absolute doll! She is quite calm but does get the zooming after being let out of the crate in the AM. She is very polite and respectful with my 7yr old dog selective male ACD and unsure of my two cats at this time but doesn't chase them. She is learning to walk on a leash and loves being out and about! She's doing well with crate training and sleeps overnight with no issues and minimal whining, also LOVES comfy dog beds and will cozy up on the couch with us if we let her. She met a friend's little dog yesterday and they played and wrestled quite a bit. She definitely doesn't know her size and can be a bit mouthy while playing but she shows zero aggression. In true heeler fashion, she wants to be near her people and can be unsure of bigger dogs. With a slow and steady introduction and repeated positive exposure, we have no doubt she’ll be less fearful. The world is all new to her but she is blossoming and would make a fantastic member of an active family that is willing to be patient and further her training and development. She'd be a great hiking buddy and seemed to enjoy walking in the water at the bay with my boy yesterday. I can't say enough good things about this sweet little lady!”   Honey is located in Long Beach, CA. She is microchipped, UTD on vaccines, and awaiting a spay appointment. The wait time for a low-cost spay in the So-Cal area is months away so if an adopter steps up before her appointment, she can go home on a spay contract.   More photos, updates and video:  https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.1467798270848489&type=3   Interested in Honey?  Please complete an application at: http://bit.ly/CCHDR_App
