My story

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

Meet Scarlet, a spirited 3-year-old German Shorthaired Pointer / Blue Heeler mix. Bright, loyal, and affectionate, Scarlet blends Heeler intelligence and drive with GSP curiosity. She lives for play, learning, and outdoor adventures.

Personality and behavior
• Temperament: Smart, eager to please, affectionate
• Energy: High — loves playtime, training, and active outings
• Skills: Quick learner; thrives with mental stimulation and structure
• Social needs: Loves attention and human interaction; does well with consistent leadership and positive reinforcement
• Bonded pair: Part of a bonded pair with Kodak; happiest when adopted together

Ideal home
• Active household that can provide daily exercise, training, and mental challenges
• Someone who enjoys outdoor activities like hikes, runs, or interactive play sessions
• Best adopted with Kodak so Scarlet keeps her companion and confidence

Care notes
• Daily physical activity plus puzzle toys or training sessions will keep her happy and well-behaved
• Early routine and consistent boundaries help channel her smart, energetic nature
• Ask the rescue about Scarlet’s vaccination, spay, and microchip status before adoption
