There’s a song titled, “The Things I did for Love.” Mobley, a handsome, social with all species, Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler, showed up in neighborhood where no one had ever seen him. The two-year-old boy had taken the risk of straying down Dry Ridge’s busiest main street to visit other dogs, probably females, probably as a hopeful gentleman caller.

Yet, Mobley forgets about looking for love when he’s with people. He knows commands; he reads a room, charming both people and other dogs; and he demonstrates that he has his breed’s mind-boggling intelligence. Mobley is happy simply being a human’s companion.

Now Mobley’s neutered, vaccinated and ready to be an even more perfect, brilliant best friend. And Mobley has a chance at a longer life.
