My story

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


Location: Jessup, MD

Meet Eli, this handsome guy was brought in as a stray after a nasty run in with a vehicle. He had surgery on his back leg and is recovering very well. Eli has no issues getting around and is using both legs.
Eli is potty trained; he has had no accidents in my house since he arrived. He is crate trained and enjoys some quiet time in his crate. He has been the perfect gentleman. He walks well on a leash, loves playing and car rides, but needs to keep the craziness to a minimum as he continues to heal.
Eli appears completely deaf. He doesn’t let that slow him down as he loves to meet new people and animals. He would like a family with another dog he could hang with and follow around to help him with his lack of hearing. He can get a little mouthy when he gets super excited playing with you, so having breed understanding and skills would be helpful to keep him on the straight and narrow. 
Eli loves toys and snuggling with you and is great on a leash. We are working on our sign language and he is progressing well, he is very food motivated and happy to please!
Eli is barely over 1 year old and is 40 lbs. He is microchipped and is up to date on all his vaccinations and preventatives. He is being fostered in Jessup, MD and is looking for his forever family.

More about this rescue

We are an all volunteer group that rescues Australian Cattle Dogs. Our dogs reside in foster homes until they are adopted
Every year, thousands of Australian Cattle Dogs find themselves homeless through no fault of their own. Although the reasons are diverse, the result is the same. Healthy, adoptable dogs face euthanasia in shelters.

The Australian Cattle Dog Rescue Association rescues ACDs in shelters from Maine to Georgia and gives these dogs a fresh start with a loving family. Our foster home volunteers welcome the dogs into their homes where they live as members of the family. During the time in foster care, our volunteers determine what kind of forever home will be the right one for each dog.
