Adopt a Australian Cattle Dog in New Jersey

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.

New Jersey's rescue dog community is highly active, with organizations across the state running on transport from Southern shelters. Newark, Trenton, and the shore communities have particularly active networks. A rescued New Jersey dog has typically traveled significantly to reach its new home.
