A strange request, but I'm not part of any dog forum or anything.
My girlfriend wants a blue heeler (australian cattle dog). She REALLY wants to adopt one less than a year old. Like REALLY wants to adopt, and until recently has not even once considering buying from a breeder. Sadly, we both live in the city, puppy adoptions are super competitive, and its really hard to convince the adoption agencies that the dog will see a ton of outdoor time. That being said she keeps on getting rejected. If you know me and my chocolate lab you know that we never spend any time in the city, ever.
Because of all the rejections, she may need to go the route of purchasing from a breeder. I drove 7 hours to get my dog in Amish Country, PA but my girlfriend is looking for someone more local, if she eventually needs to go the breeder route.
Anyone have any input on local ACD breeders or local families with puppies? My search is coming up super empty...there really only appears to be 1 or 2 breeders in the area.
