My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Bandit is in search of a new home after the loss of his owner. This beautiful 9 year old red merle male has striking eyes - one is blue and the other is split blue and brown. He is neutered, up to date on vaccinations and has been heart worm tested.

Bandit has been a beloved pet his entire life and he is looking for a home where he will be a treasured family member again. He enjoys going on walks and is a great leash walker. He also likes car rides. He has been a frequent visitor to the dog park and has been well socialized with other dogs so a doggy companion may be a possibility for him. He has not been around cats so will not be placed in a home with them. He has also not been raised in a home with children so a quieter home would be best for him. He has been described as a sweet, loving, obedient and loyal dog. HIs family is requesting a home with a physical fence.

Bandit is a typical Aussie that takes a few moments to warm up to people, an Aussie or herding dog experienced home is preferred. Bandit would be a wonderful companion for someone looking to spend their time with a mature companion. Bandit is currently living on Long Island, NY. If you are interested in meeting him please complete an adoption application http://www.aussierescue.org/Adoption/-Adoption-Application. ARPH is screening homes for the family.

Go meet their pets

Our dogs are taken care of in foster homes. These volunteers get to know the dog very well as they live as a member of the household. They are a support system for the dog throughout its life.
