My story

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


We are in need of rehoming our 10-year old Australian Shepherd with special needs due to severe anxiety. He is a very sweet, loving, loyal dog with no health or behavior problems at all other than he is very reactive to strangers and other dogs when he is with us. However, he does fine with the groomer, vet, and boarding kennel, other than needing medication for anxiety. He would be very happy with an owner who is an experienced trainer and can provide him plenty of exercise. I work full-time while my husband is retired and has Alzheimer’s. We’ve had to move to an apartment recently and have been required to remove him due to other resident complaints about barking at them while we are walking him. We only have until December 12 and are very worried. Please let us know if you can help.
