A little bit about Mr Biggs

Meet Mr Biggs

A gorgeous red Heeler raring and ready to go!

Apptly named for his chonky head, this stunningly handsome boy will win your heart over in a SECOND.

He is a very high-energy and smart little man. He's already got some fun tricks down-pat and is eager to learn more. Because of his breed you will need to work on his mental and physical stimulation - plenty of walks, playtime, and training and enrichment will be perfect.

Mr Biggs can get a little overstimulated with handling sometimes but he is very good at telling you when he's ready for some space. For Mr Biggs, rolling over onto his back is not a request for a belly rub but a sign that he's ready for the pats to stop. He may also give you a gentle tap with his paw to indicate this as well.

He will do best in a home with older kids (12+) who are able to understand his cues for space.

Treats are a great motivator for Mr Biggs, so if he needs a little polishing of his manners, treats will do the trick.

A family who enjoys outdoor activities and has the time to give Mr Biggs the exercise and mental stimulation he needs would be ideal. A securely fenced yard is a must.

Mr Biggs is also a big softy with other dogs and is happy to say hi and have a play. He would do well in a house with another active dog who can match his energy and spend lots of time playing.

If you're looking for an active and intelligent partner to join you on all your adventures, then Mr Biggs may be the one for you!

*Please bring any children and resident dogs for the meet and greet*
