Meet Dusty! This adorable Queensland Heeler is as sweet as they come. He loves going for walks and searching for all the best smells. He is great on leash making walks fun for everyone!Dusty is about 2 years old and just under 50 lbs making him a perfect medium sized dog. Dusty can be a little shy at first, but is coming out of his shell and showing us what a lovely little companion he is. Dusty is super smart and catches on quickly when learning new games and cues! He is very treat motivated and when you combine that with his intelligence, the sky is the limit for this guy!
