Story
We took in a dog who had 11 puppies in May 2024. Most were rehomed but we still have two (one female, one male) available for adoption. They are playful, sweet and love attention. They are a mix of large breeds and good for protection and very trainable. We moved and just welcomed a baby and are unable to keep or take care of them properly. We are not able to have them at our current home and have to travel to a different property to feed and care for them and will not be able to keep this up financially or physically much longer. We have attempted to rehome and place in a no-kill shelter multiple times over the past year and a half with no success for these two. Their sister was recently rehomed. Ruby (f) has been spayed and is up to date on her rabies vaccination. Caesar (m) has had no veterinary care. 30 for each rehoming fee, can be adopted together or separately.

Story
My wife and I just welcomed a baby last week and as we prepare to take him home, Mello could use a home that he can get the attention he deserves. He's 12 years old and up to date on all of his medical records. He's protective towards women and he doesn't do so well when I approach my wife or kid while he's nearby. Please consider giving him a home to go to. I'm not interested in potential options if I can't find you on Facebook

Rocko

Australian Shepherd

Male, Adult
Lake Charles, LA
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Rocko is a playful, loving, and adventurous boy. He came into my life unexpectedly and we spent the last 4 years enjoying road trips, runs and hikes, and cuddles. He is incredibly intelligent, understanding many commands including sit, stay, wait, drop-it, and much more. Being a mix of working breeds, daily enrichment through tasks, toys, and human interaction is of upmost importance. He is successfully coexisting with cats indoors and is very respectful of them in the home. However, he does have a high prey drive outdoors; if he sees a cat (even a familiar one) running in the yard, his instinct is to chase. He would do best in a home with 'dog-savvy' cats and owners who will manage their interactions when outside. I am making the difficult, but right decision to rehome Rocko. Due to many lifestyle & living situational changes, I am not able to provide him with the lifestyle he has grown to know or deserve.
