Story
02/28/26 15:43 When staff approached the kennel to leash him, he readily walked into the leash loop on his own. Outside of the kennel, he was friendly and highly social, seeking attention from staff members.He approached multiple staff, sniffed appropriately, leaned into them, and moved his head to solicit petting.He allowed full physical restraint during handling (prior to vaccination) without issue.He was easily distracted by environmental smells while outside.When a muzzle was placed, he initially allowed it.However, when staff approached to administer a vaccine, he became highly aroused and began snapping and whipping his head around. He remained elevated/aroused until he was physically moved away from the vaccination area.Overall, he demonstrates friendly, social behavior in general handling situations, with heightened sensitivity during medical procedures involving injections. MH02/19/26 14:51Needs rescue urgent due to handling sensitivities, leading to attempts to bite and thrashing to deter handlers when being restrained or attempting to vaccinate; Bites made contact but did not break skin. Unable to fully vaccinate due to this behavior. Easily aroused and displays rowdy behavior, nipping at extremities when excited and attempting to mount/hump when interacting with handlers.

Story
Carrot is a 5.5 y/o Australian Cattle Dog who loves adventure, has a lot of personality, is incredibly smart, and thrives in routine. I’ve made the difficult decision that it will be best for the both of us to find a home that is more conducive to his needs and fulfillment. Carrot gets along with the large majority of other dogs and loves most people once he gets past the initial overexcitement. He has never lived with cats. He is reactive with children and would be best in a home with adults. Carrot will thrive in a calm environment with humans who prioritize exercise and the mental stimulation a typical cattle dog needs. He LOVES swimming, fetching, and learning tricks. He does have a good off-switch and enjoys cuddling up on your feet in bed. He has great recall and walks very well on leash. He is the perfect hiking companion and doesn’t chase wildlife. He is well trained and very eager to please, always up for learning new tricks and life skills. He is very food and play motivated.

Story
We adopted nugget when she was 2 months old. The people we got her from didn't know much about her, at least that's what they said. We later found out she was deaf. She was very skiddish and anxiety ridden. We've been working with her and she's been advancing. She's enrolled in weekly training and confidence building. However, she doesn't get along with our elderly cat nor does she get along with one of our family members. We love Nugget and really would like to keep her but know that she would probably do better with a one on one owner rather than a family. She is special needs, she is deaf and sometimes scared of her own shadow. If you are interested please reach out. At the moment she is being fostered by my adult daughter.
