Looking for a Blue Heeler (Australian Cattle Dog) for adoption in Edmonton, AB? Didjeri would love to be considered for the position of your cherished family companion.
Didjeri the Delightfully Devoted Heeler – A Tail-Wagging Love Story Waiting for a New Chapter
Imagine waking up to the soft thump-thump of a happy tail at the foot of your bed. You crack one eye open, and there’s Didjeri—curled into a perfect blue-speckled ball, the same pup who definitely started the night on his designated mat but somehow ended up right where he belongs: beside you.

That’s Didjeri in a nutshell—loyal, loving, and just a little bit sneaky in the most charming way.
This 2.5-year-old Blue Heeler (Australian Cattle Dog) is a walking, tail-chasing, face-licking tribute to joy itself. He’s not just a dog; he’s a full-time mood booster with a part-time gig as a raspberry thief. (Yes, you read that right—Didjeri loves helping in the garden, but don’t expect the harvest to make it back to the bucket.)
He’s got a heart as big as Alberta and the energy to match. Didjeri lives for playtime—fetch, tug-of-war, wrestling with a soft mouth, zoomies at full throttle—you name it. He’ll even bring you his toy of choice like a proud little athlete, gently suggesting you pause your boring human tasks and do something truly important: play.
He’s smart as a whip, too. Clicker-trained, crate-trained, house-trained—basically everything-trained. But more than that, he’s emotionally tuned in, especially with his person. Every pack has a favorite, and if you’re lucky, you’ll be his.
Let’s be real: Didjeri isn’t looking for couch potato pals. He’s searching for a dynamic duo—or better yet, a whole team. He dreams of space to run, a job to do, maybe even a shot at agility training (he’d crush it). And while he’s the kind of dog who thrives on activity, he’s also the kind who melts into a puddle of love once the day is done.
So why, you might ask, would anyone part with a dog this amazing?
The truth is tough but simple: Didjeri’s current family adores him, but life has changed. Busy schedules, limited space, and a growing awareness that he deserves more than they can offer led to this bittersweet decision. This isn’t about giving up—it’s about giving forward. About letting Didjeri live the full, happy, purpose-filled life he was born for.
His only “bad” habit? He has a thing for socks. If you’re missing one, check his bed. Or the raspberry bushes. He may have buried it under the guise of yard work.
If you’re someone who believes a dog is a partner, not just a pet—if you want a loyal shadow for hikes, runs, fetch marathons, or simply to laugh with during tail-chasing moments—Didjeri might be your perfect match.
He comes with all the fixings: crate, toys galore, Halloween costumes (yes, he rocks them), and a heart ready to bond.
Apply today to meet Didjeri.
You won’t just be adopting a dog—you’ll be gaining a best friend, a backyard comedian, and a whole lot of happy chaos wrapped up in a blue-speckled coat.
His leash is ready. His heart is open. Could you be his forever?

Didjeri’s Personality
Didjeri is extremely friendly, energetic,and playful. He loves to be around his people, usually one in particular, and can spend all day playing fetch, tug-of-war, and anything that involves plenty of running. He’s still a tail chaser and will often bring over toys when he wants some attention. He loves a good face scratch as long as it quickly turns into some form of play.
Didjeri’s Favorite Toys, Foods, Activities?
Any form of ball or fetch toy and anything you can play tug with. He has been fed raw food his entire life but is still highly receptive to simple dry dog food as training and reward treats. He loves to chase down balls and kongs and any activity that he can run and jump. He’s also a great wrestler and fairly soft-mouthed just playing with hands
Cute Didjeri Story:
He still finds great joy in chasing his tail and will go for quite some time. He’s also a great assistant in picking raspberries, although they don’t ultimately end up in the bucket. He’s also quite receptive to holiday shirts.
Why is Didjeri Being Rehomed?
Our life has changed quite a bit in the past year and our home does not have the time to dedicate to such an active and energetic dog. We came to the difficult decision that our home simply isn’t conducive to pets and hope that Didjeri can find a home where he can be kept far busier and possibly given the opportunity for agility courses or other jobs. While he is loved and healthy we aren’t a home where a Dog like him can thrive.
Didjeri’s Perfect Adoptive Home Will Be:
A larger property or a home with people who want to spend more time in Dog activities, such as agility training, off-leash parks, or just a running partner. He is excellent with the family and eager to please, but would benefit from more activity.
It has been a difficult decision to rehome Didjeri, which has taken many months to come to, but we simply aren’t the best home for a Dog to be able to thrive. He deserves better than being cared for out of obligation rather than enthusiasm.
