Story
In Norfolk - Meet Saint! This 2 year old, blue-eyed, handsome boy found himself in a Louisiana shelter after being seized from a cruelty case in November 2023. Set to be euthanized, ASF rescued him in his final hour! ASF also learned that poor Saint had heartworms and had to be treated for several months, which consisted of restricted activity and crate rest. He is a solid, healthy & happy boy despite having a very rough start to life. Saint likes to play fetch and chase, but he's more on the medium energy level. He is leash reactive with dogs and squirrels and pulls on the leash (and he's strong!), but we're working on that daily. He's had several foster siblings, so he'd love a home with another dog for company. He is crate trained, but doesn't need it or like it. He isn't destructive or naughty when left free in the house. He will sleep in a dog bed or next to your bed at night. He doesn't guard his food or humans and shows zero signs of aggression. He loves to be right next to (touching) his people, on the sofa or in the bed. He is very affectionate and is quickly comfortable with people. He's actually a warm, snuggle machine. Saint's foster family is working on car rides because he gets very anxious, whining and barking for the first 10 minutes or so in the car. He has an Rx for anxiety if he's going to be in the car for a longer drive or around a lot of people. He's obedient, intelligent, and eager to please. He learned how to use the doggie door in about 30 minutes and will come inside from a knock on the window or a whistle. He gets a bath, nails trimmed, and teeth brushed without issues! He knows several commands like "sit", "wait", and "down." We're also working on better front door etiquette. He has a deep, intimidating bark for such a sweet boy. Older kids would probably be best for him because he doesn't realize his own strength. His prey drive is pretty strong, so no cats or small animals. Saint can jump chain link fences. Modifications will need to be made if his new family has this type of fence. Saint is looking for a loving and patient home to provide a new life full of love and cuddles. Saint is neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, and on flea/tick/heartworm prevention. He's being fostered in Norfolk, Virginia. If Saint sounds perfect for your family, please fill out the application. https://www.australianshepherdsfurever.org/adoption-application There is an additional $20 microchip fee which includes registration and transfer to his new furever family.

Story
Max will be surrender on December 13, 2025. I’m hoping I can rehome him with a nice, loving and active owner! He loves hard chew toys, walks, rubs and car rides, the beach. Can be skittish around new people and dogs. Needs to be walked or he will explore. I work a lot and I’m not able to give him the time he needs unfortunately. He knows direction if you point and tell him, he knows excuse me, sit, no, kisses, stop, good boy, potty, poop, pee, water, come here and eat, bed, go, outside, go for a walk. He’s very smart! He comes to “handsome, Mackey, Max, Big Boy, Pumpkin” He likes paper of any kind! He can’t eat bones nor hard jerky because he swallows them whole from excitement. 34 pounds small/medium size. Loves being brushed. Doesn’t like getting his nails cut nor bathe lol. Would recommend brushing twice a week.

Story
Titus is very loving and loves pets. I believe he would be great for any family. He doesn't require much. He likes socks. Never makes holes, it's a part of his personality at this point. He just made six. He is healthy no medical issues or history. He's house trained, and loves to lay in the room with you or next to your feet. Titus is very loving and caring. Rarely barks unless he is in discomfort. Honestly he's a great dog. He does well on long car, is just an overall great companion for almost any owner. He knows plenty of tricks. Roll over, pound it, down, sit wait, crate, come, quiet, shake, all types of stuff. Very easy and quick learner. Food/ treat motivated. Really, he's a great dog. I hope you can tell that from by the way he smiles in dog. I'm relocating and renting, a lot of the housing options that are in my price range have a huge pet fee that I cannot afford. So I'm hoping that he can go to a family. Price negotiable. Times are hard. Serious (xxx) xxx-xxxx

Story
Meet Cody! This gentle lady was transferred to us from a local shelter with her best friend Bluegrass & they are ready for a fresh chapter full of love and patience. Cody & Bluegrass are quite nervous/timid around new people & places along with being very bonded to one another, so they will be required to go home together! Additionally, due to their timid nature we would recommend children 6+ in her future home but if you have younger kids and experience with shy and nervous dogs we can discuss this! Bluegrass & Cody are extremely sweet & loving Australian Shepherds mixes who can certainly benefit from an adopter who can help them work on their confidence, just remember to do any introductions with either people, places, or animals slowly! Lastly, we unfortunately do not have any history on these two, so any adopter would likely need to begin or reintroduce potty/house training, & crate training would be highly encouraged! These two lovely dogs need a special home that will give them the time, love, and patience for them to grow into their family. Our kennel team will be happy to answer any questions about them when you come to visit!

Story
MAX - 6 years old, kid/cat/dog social, typical cattle dog behavior   Max is a vibrant and active boy surrendered for being too hyper and needing more room for his energy.   This dog needs exercise, playtime and room to move.  This dog needs exercise, playtime and room to move.  This dog needs exercise, playtime and room to move.    Reinforcing the fact that this boy is always on the move, please do some research on cattle dogs bc they, like all other breeds, have specific characteristics which may or may not align with your family's lifestyle.   Max is fun. He is the one bouncing off the walls. He is ready to go at all times.   He was silly in our shelter playgroup yard with the other dogs. He ran and chased and grabbed other dogs in his cattle dog style... always with a smile on his face!   Max is also great with children and cats.   He has some separation anxiety and is known to be destructive in the home if left alone. We recommend crating in these instances. PS He is already crate trained so there you go!   If you have done your research on the breed and feel Max would fit in perfectly with you and your family, come on in to meet him!  He is currently in a back kennel so if you don't see him, please just ask!Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.September 30, 2025, 9:42 am
