Introducing Aero!
Aero is a stunning 2-year-old, 45 lb Heeler mix with a bright mind, playful spirit, and a heart that's learning to feel safe and loved. This handsome boy was rescued just in time from a Houston shelter after landing on the euthanasia list simply because he was too scared to walk on a leash. Thanks to a dedicated foster family, Aero got his second chance and he's been making the most of it ever since. Like many Heelers, Aero is smart, active, and thrives when he has structure and routine. He has come a long way and now walks well on a leash, rides great in the car, and would make an amazing adventure buddy. Whether it's a walk, a road trip, or just hanging out in the yard, Aero is happy to be part of the action or to entertain himself with toys and solo play. One of Aero's most endearing quirks? He absolutely loves music. His foster brother starts playing guitar, and he'll sit quietly and listen like your biggest fan. Music even helps calm him, making it a sweet way to connect with him.
Ideal Home
Aero would do best in a home with older children due to his herding instincts and occasional nipping. He also does great with other dogs and would love a friendly furry sibling or at least opportunities to socialize with other dogs. He is not a fan of cats. He needs a patient but confident owner who can provide clear guidance and consistency.
Ongoing Health
Aero has completed heartworm treatment.
Training & Support
Aero still needs some continued training and reassurance, but he's eager to learn and bond with his person. He will protect his food from other dogs, so he is fed separately in his kennel. While Aero isn't a big fan of the kennel, he doesn't need it as he is not destructive. He may sneak off and hide a shoe or two if given the chance, which is part of his playful personality.
