Ozzie

Australian Shepherd

Male, Young
Irvine, CA
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details
Good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Ozzie was found abandoned on the street and taken to a high-intake shelter. After about a month without being adopted, a foster stepped in and promoted him, and I brought him home to give him a chance. He is an 1~2 years old Australian Shepherd mix, 77 lbs, very people-friendly, affectionate, cuddly, smart, and highly food-motivated (learns quickly). He is still adjusting and is working on leash reactivity around other dogs (barking/lunging), which has already improved with positive-reinforcement training and should continue to get better with consistency. Cats are not a good fit, he may fixate and want to chase, so a cat-free home is recommended. He can also jump up when greeting due to excitement, so a home without very young kids is preferred until trained. Vaccines are up to date, heartworm negative, deworming/flea-tick done. Neuter appointment is scheduled for Feb 4. Ideal home: patient, loving, has time for training/exercise, preferably no cats and no other dog at first.

Australian Cattle Dog Blue Heeler

Story
Meet Basil, a resilient and gentle Austrian Cattle Dog / Blue Heeler mix with a heart as big as his soulful eyes. Basil and his sister Sage were surrendered to a high-kill shelter suffering from a severe respiratory infection. Tragically, Sage didn’t make it and was euthanized. Basil was scheduled to be put down next—he was already on the table when our rescuer team stepped in at the very last moment and pulled him to safety. Despite everything he’s been through, Basil is the softest, sweetest boy you’ll ever meet. He never barks, never demands, never makes a sound—he simply waits patiently and quietly, hoping someone will finally see him. When you offer him a treat, he takes it with the gentlest, most delicate “lip” you can imagine, like he’s afraid to take up too much space in the world. His coat is absolutely stunning: classic blue-heeler speckles mixed with warm red tones and a perfect mask across his kind, expressive face. But it’s his energy that truly melts hearts—calm, loving, and overflowing with quiet gratitude. Basil is the kind of dog who leans in softly for pets, gazes up at you with pure adoration, and just wants to be whoever’s loyal shadow. After surviving the unthinkable, Basil is healthy, fully vetted, and more than ready for the one thing he’s never truly had: a safe, loving forever home where he can finally exhale and know he’s cherished. If you’re looking for a gentle, devoted companion who will love you with every ounce of his healed heart, Basil is waiting—quietly, hopefully, and oh-so-deserving.
