Saving Paws

Adopt a Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler Mix

Please help us find a home for Bandit - he's such a dear boy! He came to the shelter 2 years ago as a stray. So - we know he's a smart boy to have survived all on his own. He was adopted by a wonderful family who has returned him to the shelter because their military housing will not allow them to have dogs. What a shame!

He is SO handsome! He is a light brindle with all sorts of ticking - freckles and speckles galore! He is approximately 4 years old, and he weighs in at 56 pounds.

Bandit is known for his bat-like ears - as you can see in his photo. Unfortunately, he arrived with them very irritated, so he is receiving medication for them. He shared his previous home with another dog and 1 CAT! (they claim he got along with that cat!), a newborn and an 11 year old child. Bandit seems to get along with everyone, but he's not too sure about men, apparently. We'll never know his true history, due to him being a stray originally, but with care and time, we hope that he will overcome that.

Bandit walks well on a leash, likes to ride in the car, is a complete cuddler, and is generally a wonderful boy. Won't you come and meet him? His previous owners left a telephone number for serious prospective adopters (a kind and loving gesture) so that you can 'chat'!

Bandit needs a loving home - come today! Bandit is currently at Frederick County Animal Control, located at 1832 Rosemont Ave., Frederick, MD 21702. (301) 600-1546. PRESS 0 WHEN YOU BEGIN TO HEAR THE RECORDING TO AVOID THE PHONE TREE. Pet ID:11-1362

Please pass this on to others. Bandit deserves a good home. See this dog now!.
