My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Indigo is a very handsome Miniature Aussie. He has a gorgeous blue merle coat and two ice blue eyes. He weighs around 26 pounds. Still a young guy at just 1-year-old with his whole life ahead of him. This sweet and sensitive guy is looking for a compassionate and caring home with someone who understands Puppy Mill dogs.

For our sweet Indigo came from a puppy mill and never learned “dog it” yet. Indigo may take some time to get used to his new surroundings. Once he has warmed up and feels safe, he will be a very lovable companion.  Indigo is happiest when he is cuddling next to his human and getting all the belly rubs.

He is still working on his basic commands and leash training. He would do best with someone who has time to work on these things with him and help him learn. Indigo gets along with other dogs.

Since our sweet boy gets scared of loud noises and the zooming of children it does scare him (zero aggression!! He just hides.)  It would be best for our sweet boy to have a quiet home to help our little man gain his confidence!

 He has not been round cats but with his low-key drive, we think he should be fine.

Indigo loves his foster dog brother and laying on the bed with him getting confidence tips from him!

He is great in his crate and has discovered TOYS!!!!!!!

Our sweet Indigo needs someone experienced in shy sweet Aussies: preferably puppy mill dogs.

Indigo is a lover at heart and with consistency, patience and a forever home dedicated to him, you will have a lovebug for life!

Indigo is neutered, up to date on vaccinations of Rabies, Distemper, and Bordetella. He has been Heartworm tested (negative) and Fecal treated.

Indigo is also Micro-chipped and takes monthly preventatives for heartworm prevention and flea/tick prevention.

Indigo is being fostered in the Kansas City, Missouri area.  His adoption fee is $390.00.
