Story
See more adoptable puppies at h2erescue.org! Hi my name is Buddy. I am a 10 week old neutered male Border Collie / Australian Shepherd MIX. My mom is a Border Collie Mix and my dad is an Australian Shepherd Mix. I am up to date on my shots and ready to go home. Please go to our personal website at, h2erescue.org and fill out an application under my profile "I'm Interested". Our adoption fee is $72. This is used to cover vet care, vaccinations, food etc. We are a rescue group, not a shelter and we foster these animals at our home.

Our primary address is 3616 Williams Lake Rd, New Philadelphia, Ohio 44663. We sometimes hold Adoption events at 4173 Mayfield Rd, South Euclid, Ohio 44121, like other rescues do at a pet store.

Story
Wave is a male Border Collie and Blue Healer mix (75% Border Collie, 25% Blue Healer). We are letting him go because he does not like young children. Waves pros are he is very intelligent, potty trained, listens to commands of quiet, sit, down, heal, out, off, stay, come, roll over, shake, high five and can play fetch like a pro. He can be a very sweet and loveable dog. He has a natural tendency to herd and loves being outside. He is up to date on shots, nutered and has a chip. His cons are he is territorial, barks and growl a lot but responds to "quiet" command. He growls at people he doesn't like yet can be friendly with others. He struggles with sitting down while inside and often follows the kids and myself around the house (tries to herd us).

Meet Callie! Callie is a playful, sweet, energetic five month old mixed breed! This petite gal would love a fenced-in yard to run and play. Callie loves playing fetch with tennis balls. She also loves her squeaky toys and keeps herself quite busy with toys and chew bones. Callie is a good girl and is working on potty training and going to the door when she needs to go out. Callie is crate trained and sleeps in her crate all night. She loves playing with her foster siblings and will need some time to warm up with a new pal, but would love to have a playmate! Callie is super smart and has the ability to learn lots - she already knows “sit”, “down” working on “stay”.

Story
Tuesday is in a foster home. To meet her, text Rachael at 440-773-0270. Hi! I'm Tuesday, and I'm hoping someone will adopt me! If it would help you decide, along with the meet-and-greet, here's what I know about myself: I'm housebroken! I'm crate-trained! I especially don't mind going into my crate if I have a couple of treat-filled toys to occupy myself when I'm told to "go to your crate. Sometimes I get too excited with treat-filled toys so I like it if they're only used when I'm in my crate. I'm a fast learner! I know a few commands: sit, down, shake paw, stop, stay, no-jump and off (sometimes I get too excited to see someone come home!). I'm used to being told to sit before eating from my food dish, and I know how to ring bells or nudge you if I need to go potty. I love toys! Sometimes I enjoy bringing them to you, sometimes I like fetching them, but sometimes I like taking a toy and being by myself for a while. I enjoy watching birds and squirrels! I like chasing the squirrels in a fenced-in yard! I'm athletic, and I love to accompany someone who's walking, jogging, or running. If you're not into that, my favorite activity happens to be running as fast as I can around a fenced-in yard! I love going for car rides! I love snuggling once I get to know someone, and I know what "kisses means and I'm happy to offer those too once I get to know someone! I'm a little skittish around loud traffic, and with the sound of trains and airplanes, but I'm getting more accustomed to these since I've been pretty active outdoors with my foster mom. I'm also a little skittish with having my teeth looked at, my paws touched, getting sponge baths, and having my collar taken off and put on, but I'm also getting more accustomed to these things too. I've also been working with my foster mom on meeting other dogs and other people when we're out on the trails. Although Tuesday can be around other dogs, we think she'd do best in a home without other dogs or cats. She would also do best with children over 10 years old that will respect her boundaries. Contact Rachael to meet her!

Story
Axel the Menace. Axel the Fun. Axel the Silly. These are the names we have for this happy, silly, fun boy! Only 30lbs and barely a foot tall, Axel is a ball of silly, loving, crazy energy. When you are in his company, you can’t help but chuckle at the way he plays and interacts with other pups. Don’t let his small stature fool you. He can keep up with the larger pups, holds his own. Axel is extremely vocal when he plays. He plays like he wants someone’s head on a platter. Yes, loud and with his mouth open, coming at you, full speed. Axel also loves to play with his humans. He loves tug, loves to learn new tricks. Axel is also wonderful at self-entertainment. He will chase balls around. A glow in the dark ball is his favorite. He thinks the glow is the coolest engineering marvel. Sometimes he is content to lay around and chomp on a toy. When he is done playing, he ‘herds’ them and puts them in a pile. What a genius! Some 2-legged kids can’t even be taught or bribed to do so! When Axel is done playing, he is sweet and snuggly. He wants to lay close and be petted while he chills. In the summertime, a pool is a must. Axel LOVES water. He will paddle around in the pool, even though is can only hold 6 inches of water 😊 If you leave the pool out in 40-degree weather, he will still jump in and paddle away. Axel is 6 months old. He is a 30lb Border Weenie (Collie Dachshund) mix. He is looking for a family who is engaging and who looks at his crazy energy and playstyle with affection and humor. A home with a dog of similar energy level and play style is best. He has the potential to annoy and irritate lower energy pups. A home with older kids is a must. Axel has no bite inhibition when he is playing. This is largely due to being removed from his mom and siblings from a young age. Axel is crate and house trained. He walks well in a harness.

Story
Border Collie crouch, anti-gravity boots, athleticism, this girl’s got them all! Bernedette exudes intelligence and the love to train! She is so insanely smart, she learned to recall in 5 seconds and sit in 10 seconds! She would be a dream to train for tricks and agility sport! If she sees people running, she immediately goes into stalking and herding mode. For this reason, she is a better fit for a home with older children. Training aside, Bernedette is a curious girl. She loves to explore when she is in a new environment. Sniffing, checking out who all has been there before her 😊 If a furry friend comes up to try to instigate play while she is in her exploring mode, she will just politely ignore the pup 😊 When there aren’t new tricks to be learned or an agility course to be completed, Bernedette enjoys quiet time with toys. She can get quite playful entertaining herself! When Bern is done for the day, she loves to hang out and chill beside you. She can be feminine, dainty and elegant when she is not in her training mode and oh yes, a bit vocal when she does not like something 😊 Bern takes treats like a dainty princess. Bernedette is about 9 months old, 45lb Border Collie Heller mix. She is looking for a family who is into sports like she is! Together, get and stay fit! A home with older children is best. A fenced yard is preferred. Bern is crate trained. She walks well on a leash. Bern is all around sweet and wonderful. She is a trainer’s dream.

These pups are in Cleveland, Ohio too!

Story
Get ready for fun with freckle-faced cutie Tortuga! Tortuga is a playful, active, adventurous young pup. He's a bright and friendly fellow, quick to greet new friends with a wagging and tail and charming smile. Tortuga is estimated to be around a year old, and comes with all the goofy energy you'd expect from his age. He seems to have some herder in him, so he'd do well with a family who's ready to help keep your minds and bodies active together! Tortuga is a smart cookie who has been quick to pick up on cues like sit, touch and down, and he seems like he would be a whiz with further training. Tortuga has been playful with other dogs so far, and might enjoy a canine companion in his home. He weighs 47 lbs.Visit www.tinyurl.com/meetacitydog to set up a meet!

Courtesy Post: Owner Surrender/Rehoming- Ashland, OH Meet Atlas! He is a 5 year old Australian Shepherd and weighs between 35-40 lbs.

He needs to find a new furever home as soon as possible! If you think you can provide a great home for Atlas, please contact the owner listed below. There is a $150 rehoming fee to assure good folks with good intentions. This fee will be donated to Australian Shepherds Furever for their assistance in placing Atlas.
