My story

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

Available for Adoption in Western MA – Meet Mary!



Mary is a four-month-old Australian Shepherd puppy mix with a heart as big as her beautiful bright blue eyes. She’s black with adorable white socks on all four feet and a white tip on her tail—absolutely precious. At just 12 pounds, she’s still a little girl with lots of growing (and loving) left to do.



Mary came to us from Oklahoma, where she and her brothers were being given away outside a Walmart. Her dad is a full-blood Mini Australian Shepherd, and her mom is a mixed breed. Despite her rough start, Mary is thriving and ready for her forever home. She is current on vaccinations and microchipped.



Like most puppies, Mary has bursts of playful energy followed by epic nap sessions. She’s already doing wonderfully with training—she knows how to sit, waits patiently for meals, and is almost fully potty trained. She’s very food- and treat-motivated, which makes continued training a breeze.



Mary is a confident, smart little pup who figures things out quickly and isn’t easily startled. She was excellent for bath time and even stayed calm during nail trims. She loves toys, enjoys following her older foster brother around, and is happiest when she’s close to her people. Hugs, belly rubs, cuddles—Mary loves them all. If allowed, she’d happily stretch out and sleep at the foot of your bed.



She’s fantastic with everyone she meets and wants to play with every dog she sees. Mary would love a dog sibling to learn from and play with. She’s also interested in our cat, so she’ll need a dog-savvy cat who can set clear boundaries.



If you’re looking for a sweet, smart, affectionate puppy who will grow into a wonderful companion, Mary might be your perfect match.

More about this rescue

Nancy Pearlman-Gonzalez, Founder and CEO, created Australian Shepherds Furever (ASF), a non-profit organization to promote the education, rescue, fostering and adoption of the Australian Shepherd breed of dog.
In July 2012, Australian Shepherds Furever (ASF) initiated as a page on Facebook. Hoping to have 1,000 members at the end one year, ASF quickly grew into a network of more than 58,000 dedicated individuals striving to provide aid and refuge to Aussies all over the country.
From these phenomena, the website www.australianshepherdsfurever.org was developed to educate the public on this intelligent and beautiful breed, and provide resources to those seeking help or willing to contribute to the Adopt, Save and Foster (ASF) philosophy. ASF filed for non- profit status in July 2013 and obtained its status in July 2014 and through proactive networking, partnerships, training/rehabilitation and fundraising, ASF has saved the lives of countless dogs to include those with Parvo, Mange, Tick Disease, Cancer, Pneumonia, broken limbs and some of the most extreme cases of abuse that one could imagine. ASF focuses on the Aussies that most would turn their backs on. ASF is in its 5th year and over 1,910 Australian Shepherds have been rescued from high kills shelters, abusive owners and other high-risk situations.
We, as humans, have a responsibility to uphold, shelter and care for those beings that are less fortunate, that are simply cast away. Thanks to proactive individuals who work collectively, Aussies nationwide are being given a chance at a better life through Australian Shepherds Volunteers are an integral component of ASF for the maintenance of the website, screening potential fosters and adopters, providing training, fundraising, data base management, networking and transporting of recued Aussies. All Volunteers; Adopters, Fosters, Trainers and Transporters etc. are carefully screened and vetted to assure the safe and vital placement of these dogs into furever homes. We currently have over 170 foster families and over 160 dogs in foster care nationwide. We have professional trainers to work with our dogs with severe behavioral issues. We also have a team of Rescue Coordinators, Medical Advisors, Fundraisers, Regional Reps, Application Processors, Data Base Managers, Social Media Managers, Microchip and ID tag Registrars and Ground and Air Transport Coordinators that work together to save these beautiful dogs.
Furever (ASF).
