Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Ike is a real pack animal and would be happiest with another dog. This gorgeous 28 lb, 10 month old male Blue Heeler/Aussie Shepherd mix is playful, and energetic.
Like most herding breeds, Ike is smart, loyal, and checks in and keeps an eye on his 'pack'.
Not a dog who likes to lay around all the time, he needs regular exercise and mental stimulation to thrive. He is working dog, so he needs a job. Ongoing training for Ike would help satisfy that need.
This boy loves going for walks runs, playing with other dogs, and hanging with his people. likes to entertain himself with toys and and is a constant source of entertainment
Ike has a previously healed fracture in his rear left leg. He had a very rough start in life and is now enjoying being a loved family member in his foster home.
Ike's adoption fee is $450 and includes neuter, microchip and current vaccinations.

More about this rescue
SPOT was created to fill the need to save animals who “fall through the cracks” in our sheltering system. Local shelters are overwhelmed—they receive so many strays and owner turn-ins that they run out of space and have to kill thousands of animals each year. The majority of these animals are healthy and simply need to be placed into a home. Others are medical cases which require some work, but do not have life-threatening diseases or injuries. And a few have some moderate behavior issues; we work with specialists to correct these behaviors before finding them their forever home. The bottom line is SPOT can save these lives.
