My story

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

Margo is a beautiful girl. She rolled over and trusted to show her belly in three days. Her energy level is fairly chill, but does have the aussie cattle dog trait of jumping up at you if you don't set boundaries. She crates well and is house trained. She is a fairly good walking dog, but will jerk if rabbits or small game come close. She is becoming better as we continue training. She is an amazing smart little lady.
Margo does have a tendency to resource guard and needs an experienced handler. Feeding in a crate is certainly one way to eliminate food resource guarding. Socialization and group classes are other ways of defusing guarding. Most cattle dogs are known for this trait..
Margo needs someone who is experienced with herders. She will need a fenced yard preferably, no small children or toddlers, and no small tiny teacup dogs. She will make a wonderful active companion, hiking, biking, running partner. Perhaps even a disc dog, or weekend agility with dog sports. Scent work is also a great sport for dogs to get into. She is currently fostered in the Naples area.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

We require potential adopters to fill out an Adoption Application.When that is approved we can arrange for the prospective adopter to meet the dog they are interested in. We do require an adoption contract to be signed at time of adoption. We have a virtual home-check process (don't forget to submit photos of the exterior of your home!) Adoption fees range depending on the age of the dog. We do have dogs located at qualified fosters throughout the state and also out of state.

Adoption application

Go meet their pets

Since all rescue dogs live in foster homes, there is no single facility to meet pups.

You will need to contact Ewenity Farms HDH to make arrangements to meet the rescue dog after you have an approved app on file. Apps can be filled out at ewenityfarm.org

More about this rescue

We are a small, foster-based rescue organization located in Southwest Florida. Being small helps us give more one-on-one attention to individual dogs and their needs. Rescued dogs are kept in our homes and treated as our own. Herding dogs are unique. They are highly intelligent and require much of the owner’s attention. The dogs are evaluated, when they come into the rescue, for any temperament and health issues. Then they are given basic obedience, socialization and rehabilitation as it is necessary.

It is our sole purpose to find forever homes for these loving, wonderful dogs that have been discarded through no fault of their own. All adopted dogs are spayed/neutered, up to date on shots, heartworm negative, micro-chipped, and on flea and heartworm preventative.
