My story

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

Sprocket is a handsome 2-year old male Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler who was brought to the HSOV on April 13, 2024 and kept safe for his owner in hopes that he would eventually be able to take Sprocket if housing/landlord issues were resolved. Sprocket's status was changed to adoptable in early July 2024 and is looking for a new home.

This good-looking boy has a shiny black-and-white medium-haired coat with blue ticking, a long tail with a white tip on the end, and a beautiful symmetrically-marked Blue Heeler face with hopeful trusting eyes, a black button nose, and large erect ears. Sprocket has natural wavy hair.

Sprocket has a friendly, outgoing personality. He is good with cats and also with other dogs. Sprocket has a fun-loving disposition and is full of playful puppy-like energy .. And is an accomplished 'fence climber' so he requires a little supervision.

These pictures were taken on April 14, 2024 when HSOV Volunteer Emma Dahlgren spent time with him outdoors for his 'glamour photos'. Sprocket posed like a Westminster Show Dog for Emma and also gave her the nicest hugs and sweet kisses.

Sprocket weighs 42.6 lbs and walks well on a leash.

Sprocket was neutered on July 2, 2024 and was also given rabies vaccine.

This sweet boy is currently in foster care but is still available for adoption. If you would like to meet Sprocket, please complete/submit the HSOV Adoption Application either in person or on-line (www.hsov.org) and we will arrange a meet-and-greet with an approved HSOV adoption application.
