Story
Her name is Rio! She is a 16 week old puppy. She is a gorgeous mix of breeds. We rescued her but our older dog is not happy now and it is not a sustainable situation. She would be best in a home as an only dog or with an opposite gender dog. She has been in a home with children 8 and older and a cat. She is sweet with humans, crate trained, house trained, is learning to walk on the leash and knows some basic commands, such as “sit,” and “come.” She is leaning how to fetch with a tennis ball and frisbee. She is working on “leave it” and “stay.” She is still teething. She has had 2 rounds of shots and is due for her final set on 8/28/23. She would do best in a home with some experience with herding breeds.

Story
Meet Summer, an adorable 2-year-old cattle dog/lab mix pup weighing 32 pounds. She's a bundle of fun and gets along great with other dogs. Summer is a social butterfly, always eager to play, and she's really good at making friends with all kinds of dogs. Even with bossy dogs, she's super polite, and she never gets into fights with dogs who act tough. Summer absolutely loves splashing around in the water and will happily jump in for a swim just for fun. She's also a big fan of treats, so she's a quick learner when it comes to training. If you're into agility or other doggy sports, Summer could be a great partner.With her human family, Summer is a big lovebug, but it might take her a little time to get used to new people. All she needs is a bit of patience and affection, and she'll be your best buddy. Whether you're into outdoor adventures, dog sports, or you just want a great friend for your active dog, Summer is your girl. Plus, she really, really loves water!If you're interested in making sweet Summer a part of your family, please reach out to us. She's waiting for her forever home!

Story
Meet Muu, a resilient pup currently in foster care in Denver, CO!To try and encapsulate all things Muu in a small narrative could be tricky. He has the coolest personality, everyone is his friend, and he is a champion snuggler. He is the perfect size for an on-the-go companion. The innocent way Muu looks at you after a silly puppy interaction that would normally be conveyed as frustrating to the human, makes it all better. He is young, and playful. Muu loves his toys, and plays well on his own or with people/dogs!Muu is so quick to learn, even coming from a country that speaks a whole different language, he picks up on cues so quickly and is very treat and people motivated. He’ll walk miles and miles if I let him, he really enjoys his walks. But he got accustomed to his new routine very quickly. Muu conquered adversity after recovering from a hind leg injury sustained in a car accident. Now fully healed, he's thriving and full of life. Playful, potty trained, and great with other dogs and kids, Muu has even discovered his love for snow! Ready to bring joy and companionship to his forever home, Muu is eagerly awaiting a family to call his own.

Story
Classic Kelpie girl, NICE NIKITA is a 2yo Sweetie. It is an absolute pleasure to work with this adorable girl! Nikki demonstrates the Superior Intelligence of working breeds in everything she does. From her loving nature to her quick learning, this family doggy is a STAR! The IDEAL HOME will have two (or even LOTS more!) children, a VERY LARGE FENCED YARD, as well as someone home most of the time. Kelpies crave time to give their love and companionship. This is NOT an apartment dog. If you're looking for a FABULOUS girl to entertain your family, join you on daily RUNNING (or even walking) go hiking/beach/baseball games, THIS IS YOUR GIRL! We hardly have to mention that Nikki is ABSOLUTELY STUNNING- everywhere she goes she turns heads! Her grace, poise and charm turn heads. She is alert and aware of everthing in her environment. Also on her Doggy Resume is RODENT CONTROL! If you have a gopher or rodent issue of any kind, this FAST and bright girl will save you thousands of dollars in Pest Control. Nikki is an alpha girl, so any companion doggy should be mellow. She has not been tested with felines, but generally Kelpies are known to do well with family HOUSE cats (we can't guarantee outdoor cats though!) Australian Kelpies are in the same category as Aussies, Border Collies, etc. They are ALL VERY VERY VERY VERY Smart. That means they are NOT ideal for first time dog owners who have had no experience with these kinds of breeds. Nikki has basic training and the ideal adoption candidate to be her new family will be prepared to CONTINUE her training the minute she graces your front door. LET THIS SUMMER be remembered as the year YOUR FAMILY ADOPTED THE BEST, ONCE IN A LIFETIME DOG ever! To get an immediate interview to be on the list, respond with a PHONE NUMBER and SCHEDULE a SPECIFIC TIME WINDOW when our Volunteer Adoption Counselor will call you. (Our volunteers all take time from their own famililes/work/lives to help! No one wants to play endless telephone tag when phones are unanswered ) For the family who has been looking for the perfect FAMILY dog, CONTACT US IMMEDIATELY! This is the ONLY Australian Kelpie we have EVER had in our Rescue. She is highly valuable and impressive- we are committed to getting her into the IDEAL home so Nikkie can begin LOVING a new family and enjoying SUMMER IN SAN DIEGO!
