My story

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

 

 

Hi!  My name is Peanut.  I am said to be around 2-years old and a mixed breed of Australian Shepherd and Lab / Retriever.   I came to rescue after being dropped off at the shelter in early January 2025, I came to rescue in early November and LOVE my family and other dogs in the home……most of all, I love my soft bed to sleep on.  When not playing with the other dogs, I like to sit next to my foster mom while she works and talks to herself at the computer.  When my foster parents leave or it’s time for bed, I am crated.  I love to go for walks or just run and play outside, but now that it has gotten colder, I prefer to go out and do my business and come back inside where it is warm.   My foster is working on teaching me better leash manners, when we first get started walking I like to try to go fast and smell all the smells and pull on the leash, but once I get settled I just enjoy the time walking.    I am looking for a family of my own that likes bigger dogs (I am 67-pounds), enjoys some time outside, likes car rides.   Fascinated by the resident cat, but the cat has its own “safe space” so injustice watch her from the other side of the gate.

So now with the not so good stuff that can be scary, if you read too much online.   I am heart worm positive, I have started the meds and treatment is paid for by the rescue.   This isn’t my fault, but something that needs to be cared for so I can live a long life with my forever family.

My adoption fee is $200.  So far I have been neutered, vaccinated and microchipped.   I will also be heartwon treated
