Adopt a Queensland Heeler in California

Queensland Heelers — another name for Australian Cattle Dogs — are tough, smart, and tireless herding dogs that need a job to be happy. They end up in rescue when their drive overwhelms suburban families. A rescued Heeler shines with active owners who can channel their energy.

California has one of the largest populations of rescue dogs in the United States. The state's warm climate means many rescues operate year-round, and major metro areas like Los Angeles, San Francisco, and San Diego are home to hundreds of rescue organizations.
