Story
Meet Thor a very handsome boy with a happy to be alive spirt. Thor was surrendered to the shelter when his previous owners lost their housing they were devastated, but they wanted the very best for him and couldn`t provide it at this time. Thor loves to play fetch with a ball. He`s a swimmer and loves to jump in water. He know sit and stay and laydown for a treat. He`s mostly potty trained but might have an accident if left too long, he is trained to use a pee pad inside. Thor loves to chew so providing the appropriate harder style chew toys is his preference. Thor loves other dogs and is always up for a good romp he doesn`t know his size and may be a little too much for some smaller breeds. He doesn`t history living with cats but will likely chase like he likes to chase squirrels at the park. Thor is neutered and available for adoption. Come meet your new best friend.The Santa Cruz County Animal Shelter Foundation is now offering “Pawsitivity Bucks” with every dog adoption. This $200 training voucher is a way for newly adopted canines and their guardians to connect with local positive reinforcement based behavior consultants and get their relationship started off on the right paw!Please note: Our Santa Cruz location’s Shelter hours are 11-6pm, 7 days a week!

Story
Meet Gumigoo (Gumi, Gumibear, ) Currently in Buxton, ME Gumigoo — also known as Gumi, Gumibear, or Gumbo — is a handsome young Border Collie with the perfect mix of athletic ability and affection. Border Collie Mix - Weight: 33 lbs- Neutered - 2.5 years old Health: Up to date on vaccinations • Heartworm negative • On monthly prevention Personality: Gumi is a true cuddle dog He loves to snuggle, nap with his people, and will happily sleep on your bed or in your lap if allowed. At the same time, he respects personal space when asked. He gets along very well with his foster’s female Aussie and would likely do well with other dogs after a proper introduction. He has not been tested with cats. He has excellent house manners, is fully house-trained, and is trustworthy in the home. Training & Intelligence: Gumi is very smart and eager to learn He already knows several commands: • Sit • Wait • Leave it • Place (very reliable) • Recall (“come”) is still a work in progress He is highly food-motivated, which makes training productive and fun. Activity & Play: Gumi loves to run, play, and chase toys He enjoys fetch and would likely excel in agility or other dog sports. A large, secure fenced yard is strongly recommended. He has a strong prey drive and is highly alert to movement. He will bark at chickens, bicyclists, delivery trucks, and machinery. Fence-running can occur once he becomes stimulated and can be hard to interrupt. A quiet home on a low-traffic or dead-end road would suit him best. Crate & Travel: Gumi is crate-trained but does not require one at home. He travels best when contained in a covered crate with music playing Because he reacts to outside activity, window coverings or film can help reduce barking triggers. Additional Notes: • Early riser (typically 5:30–6:00 AM) • Generally friendly with people, but not perfect with everyone • Caution recommended with young children • May jump during greetings; consistent cues like “sit” or “place” help • Nervous at the vet and may need sedation or pre-visit anti-anxiety meds Ideal Home: Gumi would thrive with: An active, experienced owner A large fenced yard A quiet environment with minimal outside stimulation Consistent training and structure Adults or families with older children Gumi is an affectionate, intelligent companion who will shine in the right home — one that appreciates both his loving nature and his working-dog instincts. If you think Gumigoo is the a perfect fit for you and your family please submit our adoption application at the link below. https://www.australianshepherdsfurever.org/adoption-application There are some additional fees: $20 microchip transfer fee to register and transfer him to his new furever family. ##2560186##

Story
Meet Monty Meet Monty! A 2 year old border collie. Monty came to us as a stray from San Joaquin County in California. Monty is about as sweet as they come! He loves his people and does well with most other dogs when introduced properly. This dog is so handsome and on the taller side..he’s about 40 lbs +. This dog loves walks, hikes and anything active but does have an off switch when his needs are met. He would make a great dog for someone who has property who would like a chore dog. Once he bonds to you, he sticks by your side. Monty acts like a young dog that maybe came from a place with little to no structure. He might have also missed out on some socializing as a puppy. In the short time he has been in rescue, we think he has experienced a lot of “firsts”. He took a lot of them in stride and was just happy to be with someone. He could use some more exposure when in public..he is pretty good on leash but will need some more leash work and mileage to get it refined. Monty loves people! He is so loyal and just wants to buddy up with someone. He also loves his foster brother and sisters and does well with them. We think Monty would do best in a home with another dog, preferably a dog who can show Monty the ropes. Monty Needs the following to be successful: -an experienced handler who is familiar with herding breeds -a home with secure fenced yard -someone that is home more often than not -someone committed and patient to help further his training and socializing -responsible Bonus -another dog well behaved dog. He does well with most dogs (male and female) but prefers female dogs -an active home - a home all the time and is inclusive with Monty Monty is a sweetheart. He rides well in the car, is learning about the crate and is house trained. He REALLY wants to do good and has the softest demeanor to him but needs some guidance when walking on leash in public. He will be great, just needs some time and more exposure. He is neutered, up-to-date on vaccines and ready for adoption for the right home! If you think Monty is the a perfect fit for you and your family please submit our adoption application at the link below. https://www.australianshepherdsfurever.org/adoption-application There are some additional fees: $20 microchip transfer fee to register and transfer him to his new furever family. ##2675444##
