Adopt a Australian Cattle Dog in Minnesota

Australian Cattle Dogs — also called Blue Heelers — are tough, intelligent, and intensely driven herding dogs. They land in rescue when owners don't anticipate their non-stop energy and need for a job. A rescued ACD in an active, structured home is loyal beyond measure.

Minnesota's rescue dog community is active in the Twin Cities, Duluth, and Rochester. Many Minnesota rescues partner with regional transport networks to bring in dogs from higher-need states. A rescued Minnesota dog often comes from one of these well-organized programs.
