Story
Robin is an approx. 2-year-old Heeler mix weighing 47 lbs, and she is textbook Heeler in all the best ways. She’s a little cautious when meeting new people — the thoughtful “let me check you out first” type — but once she decides you’re hers, game over. You don’t own a Heeler… they own you, and Robin takes that job very seriously. She is incredibly smart, loyal to her person, and happiest when she has a purpose. Walks, training, puzzles, learning new things — she loves having a job and using that brilliant brain of hers. This girl forms deep bonds and offers the kind of devotion that makes Heelers so special. Robin is housetrained, great with other dogs, and does well in social settings as long as canine friends respect her space. She’s tolerant of “in-your-face” dogs but would rather not be body-slammed with enthusiasm — manners matter to this lady. She’d likely do best with older kids who understand boundaries and dog etiquette. Cats are unknown. Robin is one of those quiet, hidden gems: not flashy at first glance, but once you earn her trust, she’s all heart, all loyalty, and all in. If you’re looking for a smart, steady companion who will choose you and mean it, Robin might just be your perfect match. 🐾 Robin will come with a rabies vaccination, worming, spay certificate and a microchip.

Story
Phoenix is such a sweet smiley girl. She always looks happy. She was so very beautiful even as a puppy that she was the pick of the litter from our last group of puppies and we chose to keep her because she was so pretty. She has a dark tri coloring with cute freckles and a natural white collar. She can seem shy at first, but she warms up quickly, she is the sweetest natured dog and her owner is an elderly woman that needs to rehome due to medical reasons. Phoenix is very patient and has been raised indoors with two large bloodhounds a small miniature dachshund hound so she is comfortable around large medium, as well as small dogs. Her best friend who is a fellow Australian Shepherd named Amanda who is also up for adoption or rehoming
