Adopt a Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler / Mixed (medium coat)

Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler / Mixed (medium coat) Dog

Gordon the Dog needs a home

We will be doing adoptions on Saturday, February 17th and Sunday, February 18th from 12-4pm at Palo Alto Pet Food Express.  All of our dogs are spayed/neutered, shots current (DHPP, Bordetella and Rabies where applicable), dewormed, flea and tick treated and microchipped. 


* If you are interested in a dog, please first read the biography on the dog (keep scrolling down for the bio!) and then go to our website, www.dpsrescue.com for an application. * We do not have a facility. All dogs live in foster homes. Arrangements to meet dogs occur after an approved application has been accepted. * We do not ship our dogs for any reason. * Our adoption fee is $400 for each dog/puppy. * If it is on a weekend of our adoptions, follow us on @DPSRescue on Twitter to get real time updates on our adoptions. We will also post at the end of the evening the names of those dogs who have been adopted: www.facebook.com/DPSRescue


Gordon is an 8 year old ACD. He was adopted out as a 10 month old and is now being returned. He is housetrained and crate trained. He is very affectionate and loving with people. He is a great option for hiking and biking. He's still an active dog. No retirement home in his future.


He previously lived with a dog his whole life up until a month ago. He's leash reactive and dog choosey. According to his current owner he is best suited as an only dog. He is a great option for someone who loves the velcro nature of an ACD.


Gordon is only an option for a home that is experienced. If there are kids they need to be over the age of 10.


**Not all of our dogs go to each adoption event. We want to make sure if you are interested in a dog that we have the dog at adoptions but that can only happen if you fill out an application ahead of time and are pre-approved. (Generally this must happen prior to the weekend)


**If you are wanting to submit an application within 24 hours of an event, please print off the application and bring with you as well as submitting it. You may still submit it and if time and volunteers permit, we will contact you. Most applications submitted the weekend of adoptions are not responded to until after the adoption weekend.
