Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Brisco is a 30lb, 8 mo old Blue Heeler staying in Kirkland, WA. He's super sweet, social, snuggly, and a quick learner. PNWCDR originally got him and his sister as tiny little things from a hoarding situation, and we thought he'd landed in a permanent place, however due to a change in his adoptive family's situation, he has been returned to us recently. He was originally named Luke as a young pup in case you recognize him.
Brisco's ideal home would be one that is experienced with high-drive breeds, and is looking to include him in their activities. He likes whatever you do, as long as he can go. He's great at walking around parks/trails, and is not dog reactive in the situations he's been in with his foster. He's great at riding in the vehicle in a crate. At home, he wants to help you do laundry, trim trees, garden, run errands, or whatever sounds fun! If you have other playful dogs, that only sweetens the deal because he absolutely loves to play with anyone interested, especially if they will chase him.
If you're browsing for ACDs, hopefully you know about the breed, and know that they can be very busy, Velcro dogs that are meant to be alongside you, and are waiting for your next instructions. Brisco fits into that category. He's a super cool dog and someone will be lucky to have him. Super smart, sweet, playful, and a totally devoted dog. He really wants to be your everything. Can you be his everything?
Brisco is neutered, microchipped and has received age-appropriate core vaccines. He is being fostered in Kirkland WA and the adoption fee is $330. If you're interested in meeting Brisco, please fill out an adoption application on our website: pnwcdr.org/adopt
Please note: We do not do DNA testing on our foster dogs. The breed description is our best guess based on the dog’s appearance, mother’s appearance, paperwork, etc.
