My story

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

Meet Bluey, the 'double shot of espresso' in pup form. This little Heeler dynamo is full of enthusiasm with so much love to give. She’s doing wonderfully in her foster home, though like any spirited puppy, she’s still perfecting her manners. Bluey has mastered the “sit” command while waiting for meals, treats and toys. All she truly wants is a quick pat on the head or some positive words and she is satisfied - a real happy go lucky gal.

Bluey is housebroken, sweet, and well on her way to being the perfect companion. She sleeps like a dream in her crate at night, giving everyone a peaceful night’s rest. During the day, she’s a playful ball of energy, and a fenced yard where she can run and play fetch is just the kind of space this little adventurer needs. While Bluey is happy to play with other dogs, she is an “in-your-face” kind of pup—always ready to engage and explore with others.

She’s also doing great on walks. Bluey pulls on the leash occasionally, but overall she’s a pleasure to take on adventures around the neighborhood. This gal is still learning to play with toys and, like most puppies, she has a little bit of a nippy side—but nothing that a loving home and consistent training won’t help her overcome.

Because of her energy and her instinctual herding nature, a home with older kids (around 10 and up) or a family familiar with Heelers would be ideal. Bluey would thrive with people who understand her breed’s intelligence, drive, and love for life.

Overall, Bluey is a fantastic pup—playful, loving, and loyal. She’s just a typical Heeler, full of spirit and potential, and ready to become your best friend. If you’re looking for a fun-loving, adventurous companion, Bluey could be the perfect match for you. Ready to meet her? Apply for adoption at https://peace4paws.org/adoption-application.

More about this rescue

Peace4paws is a 501 (c) 3 non profit public charity centered in Northern New Jersey. Through our foster home system, we are able to support the rehoming and adoption of dogs from kill shelters as well as facilities of research and related fields. Founded in 2007, our initial mission focused on supporting sanctuary and forever homes for animals retired from use in research and related fields. In the past few years we have broadened our scope of rescue. We continue to help our own retired research animals and independent sanctuaries but also save shelter dogs. We are able to do this work through the efforts of our volunteer network and generous donors. Please see our website or facebook page "Peace4Paws" to meet our adoptable dogs, success stories or volunteer opportunities. We organize fundraising events centered around yoga, music, health, or animal friendly activities. We are also involved with student outreach and education. We would love to work with you.


Our Motto...

Research Animals Make Exceptional Pets!
