My story

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

Location: ME


Please allow me to introduce you to Ghost, a 14-week-old , 11 pound  black and white ACD female. Ghost immediately integrated into her foster home along with her brother Gremlin, also 14 weeks, black and white. As siblings Ghost and Gremlin enjoy their life together in their foster home but both exhibit a willingness to be independent.

Ghost is very alert and attentive to the humans around her, she enjoys responding to commands and is doing quite well on leash training.   Inside her home she remains respectful to the belongings and enjoys chewing on stuffed toys while resting in her posh bed. She identifies her kennel as a quiet and safe place that she retreats to whenever she wants some alone time. As for her personality, she exhibits a high degree of intelligence and is highly affectionate. She has a good appetite and is growing quickly.

S he is well on her way to potty  training   outside  ( but  at this time may have a mistake or two indoors if her attempt to alert us is overlooked ) and she has a good start on many basic commands like sit, stay, come and “NO”. She is good aroun d adults and kids, other dogs  and comfortable around cats. When kenneled or in a vehicle she is qui e t.  Cattle dogs are high energy dogs who know they are equal members of the family.  Sh e would be a great running/hiking buddy.  Sh e would not be happy being left in a yard by h er self.

 

Sh e was abandoned in Georgia and rescued on Halloween.  Sh e has had his first two distemper shots, h er  kennel cough vaccine and been dewormed.  Sh e and h er   brother, Gremlin  are being fostered in Maine.

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.
