Story
💛 My Personality • ✨ Describe me in 3 words: Loyal, playful, bossy 😂 • ❤️ My favorite thing in the whole world is: Being with my people. After raising 11 babies, I'm finally getting to enjoy being the baby myself! • 🤪 My funniest or biggest quirk: I can be the self appointed 'fun police.' If the other dogs are getting a little too wild or rowdy, I may step in and let everyone know it's time to settle down. Very Border Collie of me! 😂 • 🥹 The quickest way to win my heart: Give me snacks. Especially freeze dried liver treats will do the trick. • 👤 If I were a person, I'd be: a young adult who wants everyone to keep the noise down after 8 p.m.She's the girl at the party telling everyone to settle down and be responsible. She is also the responsible mom friend who keeps everyone in line. 🏡 Living With Me • ☀️ My perfect day looks like: Spending time with my people, getting some exercise and playtime, hanging out with my dog friends, and then settling in for some love and relaxation. • 🎾 Things I LOVE: My people, other dogs, playing, being included, and finally getting to enjoy life without a bunch of puppies hanging off me! • 🚫 Things I'd rather skip: Too much chaos and commotion. I can get a little bossy when other dogs are playing too hard or things get overly exciting. • 🛏️ Where/how I like to sleep: Still learning my favorite sleeping arrangements now that I'm puppy free! • 🚗 How I do in the car: good companion • ⏰ What I do when I'm home alone: nap. 🎓 Training • 🚽 Potty trained? Accidents occasionally • 📦 Crate trained? Still learning • 🦮 Leash manners: She's a smart, active girl and continuing to work on her leash skills but doing great • 🧠 Commands I know: Sit/crate/treat • 🌱 Things I'm currently learning: How to just be Kimber! She spent so much time being a mom that she's now getting the chance to show her own playful, puppy like personality. 🐾 My Friends • 🐕 Dogs: Yes! Kimber enjoys other dogs, but slow introductions are important. She can be a little rough at first and may come across as snarky until she feels comfortable. Once settled, she enjoys doggy friends. She can also be bossy and likes to referee when play gets too rowdy. • 🐈 Cats: Unknown at this time. • 👶 Kids: Yes! She has done well with kids. • 🙋 New people: does great • 🚪 Visitors to the home: instant friends 🏠 My Perfect Home • ❤️ My ideal family: A loving family who understands that Kimber may need a little patience in the beginning. Someone who appreciates a Border Collie type personality and will give her structure, exercise, love, and plenty of opportunities to finally enjoy being a young dog. • 🏃 Activity level: Medium ish. She has energy and loves to play, but she also has an old soul side and knows how to settle. • 🌳 Do I need a fenced yard? A fenced yard would be a great bonus for her • 🏢 Apartment-friendly? Possibly with an active family committed to giving her enough physical exercise and mental stimulation. • 🐶 Would I love another dog, or would I rather be the star of the show? Kimber can absolutely enjoy having another dog! A well matched dog who respects her boundaries would be ideal. She can be a little bossy, so a dog who doesn't mind her occasionally being the hall monitor would probably appreciate her most. 😂 ⭐ Just One More Thing… • 💕 What's something every adopter should know about me? Kimber has spent the first part of her rescue journey being an amazing mama. Now that her puppies are grown and she's officially off mom duty, we're watching this whole new side of her emerge. Underneath that responsible mama exterior is a young, playful dog who is finally getting her turn. • 📖 Tell us your favorite story or memory with me: Watching her go from devoted mama to realizing, 'Wait…I get to play too!' Her puppy tendencies are starting to come out more and more now that she doesn't have babies to worry about. • 🥹 Why do you think someone will fall in love with me? Because Kimber is the perfect mix of sweet, smart, quirky and fun. She loves her people, enjoys other dogs, and has that classic Border Collie personality where she occasionally feels responsible for keeping everyone in line. She just needs someone willing to let her finally enjoy being somebody's baby instead of everyone else's mom. ❤️ • 📸 What's your favorite photo of me and why? One that shows her finally relaxed and happy, because after everything she's done for her puppies, it's Kimber's turn to find the family who will take care of her. 🐾❤️ https://linktr.ee/loveconnectiondogrescueaz?utm_source=qr_code

Story
Courtesy Post – Meet Diamond! 🐶 This beautiful baby needs a loving home! Diamond is a 65 pound collie mix. She is spayed as well as microchip and does very well in a kennel. She has not been indoors so unsure if she is housebroken or not. She does like to dig a bit and chew on things but we have given her enrichment toys to keep her attention and energy at bay when kenneled. She does very well on a leash and really loves water. she does well around other dogs but we have not seen her interact with any cats. She is a huge cuddle bug and does like to jump up to give ‘hugs’ and get head pats. We are working on her recall but for starters she does know the sit command! Very loving girl. Unfortunately, we do not have space to take them in, so we are hoping to find loving homes through this courtesy post. If you or someone you know is interested in adopting Carbon or Diamond, please reach out to Joey Gonzalez at 602-535-9400. Let’s find these sweet pups their forever home! ❤️ https://linktr.ee/loveconnectiondogrescueaz?utm_source=qr_code

🎖️🐾 Meet General from our Military Litter! 🐾🎖️ Ready to meet a little guy who is reporting for duty in the cuddle and companionship department? 🫡❤️ 🐶 General 💙 Male 🗓️ DOB: 7/25/2026 🐾 Border Collie / Shepherd Mix 🖤 Black with a white chest ✨ General’s current report: 🚪 Doggie-door trained 🚽 Working hard on potty training 👦 Does well with older kids 🐶 Wants to be friends with dogs 🐱 Wants to be friends with cats 😂 His biggest challenge? He gets SO excited to make friends that he can overwhelm his furry roommates! 🧠 A little about his breed: Border Collies and Shepherds are intelligent, active breeds that typically thrive when they have both physical exercise and opportunities to use their brains. General will need a family ready to continue his training, provide plenty of play and enrichment, and help him learn appropriate puppy manners. Think walks, games, training sessions, puzzle toys, and lots of positive reinforcement! 🐾🧩 General is still learning that not every dog or cat wants to party as much as he does! 😂 With consistency, patience, and an outlet for his puppy energy, this handsome boy is going to make an amazing lifelong companion. ❤️ 🎖️ General is ready for his next mission: finding his forever family! 👉 Apply to adopt General here: https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/LCDR/Dog

Our family adopted Hunter from a rescue in October. He’s been an amazing family dog who is eager to please! He’s amazing with children and other dogs. He loves affection and chew toys! He knows several tricks: sit, stay, paw, lay down, roll over, kennel. He’s working on leash training. He’s house trained. Landlord says we can’t have a dog, would love to rehome to someone who can give him love and attention.

Story
❤️ MEET HANK — A GOOD BOY WHO DESERVES A FRESH START! ❤️ Sometimes, life takes an unexpected turn, and the people we love most have to make heartbreaking decisions. Meet Hank, a handsome 3-year-old Australian Cattle Dog, also known as a Heeler, whose owner unfortunately had to enter rehab. With an uncertain future ahead, his owner wanted to make sure Hank had a better life and wouldn't be passed around from home to home while he figured things out. That decision came from love. ❤️ Hank deserves stability, and his owner wanted to give him the chance to find it. Now, we're looking for a special family who understands what makes this incredible breed so unique! Here's what makes Hank such a catch: ✅ Good with other dogs ✅ Good with cats ✅ Didn't bother his foster's chickens! ✅ House-trained ✅ Knows basic commands ✅ Does well in the car Hank has a lot going for him! But as an Australian Cattle Dog, he's more than just a handsome face. Heelers are intelligent, energetic working dogs who thrive when they have structure, exercise, mental stimulation, and a job to do. Hank needs an ACTIVE household that understands the breed. He's looking for someone who will take him on adventures, keep his clever mind busy, provide consistent training, and make him part of the family. He isn't looking for a temporary stop. He's looking for his person — someone who will commit to him for the rest of his life, through the good days and the hard ones. We can't change the circumstances that brought Hank into rescue, but we can help make sure his next chapter is everything he deserves. Could Hank be your next adventure buddy? Submit an adoption application at https://backthebluepetrescue.org/ Approved applicants can arrange a meet-and-greet, followed by a home check. Please SHARE to help Hank find the active, loving forever home he's been waiting for! ❤️ #AdoptDontShop #AustralianCattleDog #Heeler #CattleDogRescue #RescueDog #ForeverHome #BackTheBluePetRescue October 30, 2026, 3:58 pm

Story
Meet Yo-Yo!   Yo-Yo is a very special boy who was one of eight dogs fortunate enough to fly to the U.S. from Costa Rica in search of a second chance at life. He has been in loving foster care since May 2023 and is still patiently waiting for a forever home to call his own.   Yo-Yo has some neurological challenges from his past, which are noticeable in his walk, but they don’t slow down his joyful spirit. His playful, goofy personality shines through every day, and he is incredibly lovable. He does wonderfully with other dogs in his foster home and is great with kids as well.   This sweet guy loves cozy blankets, snuggling, and relaxing with his peanut butter Kongs. He enjoys a calm, comfortable routine and thrives in a home that will give him patience, affection, and understanding.   Yo-Yo does have incontinence and wears a belly band in his foster home. When not wearing it, he may have a few small accidents per day, but overall he manages well with routine care.   We believe Yo-Yo is a cattle dog mix who truly deserves a patient, loving home that will appreciate him for the special dog he is.   If you’re interested in giving Yo-Yo the loving home he’s been waiting for, please fill out an application. A meet-and-greet and home check are required. His adoption fee is $250.  Don't wait to add this boy to your family!  October 30, 2026, 3:58 pm
