Story
**THEO FINDS HIS HAPPY.** ***2/4/2024 - Adoption Pending!*** Theo has had a rough life up until now. And he’s 5 years old! He was a very sad and unsure dog when he boarded the transport for Idaho a couple of weeks ago. We know he had at least two owners before coming into rescue and we get the feeling neither of them appreciated Theo for the good dog he is. We believe Theo is an Australian cattle dog x border collie mix. He weighs about 35 pounds and is a beautiful, deep mahogany color. He has been thriving in foster care! He's done a complete 180 and now smiles and is showing us what a sweet, intelligent dog he is. So far Theo appears to be housetrained and he is now crate trained. He rides well in the car and in his crate. Theo is mostly neutral with cats and is currently living with two. He’s been good with other dogs, but sometimes if things get too wild, he might become the Fun Police. We feel he would do great as an active companion or casual sport dog. He has the drive to potentially enjoy agility, rally, scentwork or trick training, but he’s not over the top or difficult to live with. We get the feeling someone has manhandled Theo by the collar in the past creating some negative associations around handling. For this reason we are seeking a home for him with no small children. As long as we go slowly and communicate what we’re asking for he’s very cooperative! Theo has good food drive and loves working and training for treats. He’s a very smart boy and as long as you make things into a bit of a game he’s very enthusiastic to play along. We would be happy to share his training videos with his adopter to show what he has been up to while in foster care. Theo has had a dental and had to have a couple of teeth removed, but should be good to go now with his pearly white teeth. Theo’s adoption fee is $325. He’s neutered, microchipped and up to date on vaccinations. If you are interested in possibly adopting Theo, please complete an adoption application located here: https://idawg.org/application.html

Story
Bethany is a great dog. Very smart maybe to smart. She is house trained and knows to be taken out to use the restroom if in an apartment, also knows to go outside through the doggy door if a yard is available . She needs more exposure with other dogs but is great with humans. Is a great cuddle buddy. She can be a pain in getting into the trash but I just don’t have time to train her properly. She knows how to sit and shake hands and can be walked without a lease she will not run away but if she sees another dog she goes straight after them. Over all very sweet and smart dog just needs the proper person that has time to give her

Story
Meet Rio, a 10-year-old Australian Cattle Dog who's ready to find his forever home. Rio may be an old man, but he's still a friendly pup at heart.When you approach Rio to pet him, he may get a little shy at first. But with patience and trust, Rio will soon be soaking up all the love and pets he can get. He also knows "sit." Rio dreams of spending his golden years in a loving and trustworthy home, where he can enjoy the comfort and companionship he deserves.Rio will need an indoor home and a secure containment area to stay safe from wandering and escaping. Positive reinforcement, fear-free training will be needed. Daily exercise and mental enrichment will be very important. If you have other dogs in your home, we would be happy to arrange a meet and greet with your dog(s) to make sure everyone gets along. We do not know how he will do with cats.Rio is up to date on vaccines, microchipped, neutered, and ready to go home today.The shelter is currently open by appointment only.

*Please fill out the adoption form at the website at the bottom of this bio* Charlie is the sweetest little guy who was rescued from a Texas landfill. He had been attacked by coyotes and needed immediate medical care. He has been treated and is doing very well in foster care. He is great with other dogs and kitties and loves to be by your side. He’s friendly towards new people, and despite his hard life seems to love everything and everyone. Charlie deserves to only know love and kindness from here on out and is looking for a family to show him that life. He would love a family who will take him on car rides and walks in the park. Someone to play fetch in the back yard. Charlie’s adoption fee includes his shots, neuter, and microchip. If you think Charlie would make a good addition to your family please apply below!

Story
Meet 1 year old, 27 lb Cupcake! This girl is incredibly sweet. She loves to be near her foster mom and is always dishing out kisses. No bad days here, she is constantly wagging her tail. She is so well behaved. Uses the dog door already and hasn’t had any accidents in the house. Loves other dogs and toys. She is terrified of the vacuum cleaner and having her nails clipped (she is still adjusting so a little bit skittish about a lot of things). She does fine in a crate at night, or sleeping out on a dog bed, her foster mom says if she had to pick three words to describe her they would be loving, gentle, and happy. Spay, microchip, and current vaccines all included in her adoption fee. Please start with the adoption application: freedombooundhounds.com/adopt

Story
Ginger is a sweet girl who is 8 months old as of beginning of March ‘24. Ginger is visually impaired but that doesn’t stop her at all. Ginger understands "sit" well and is patient when waiting for her food. We're working on "come" and she's picking up on it faster than Nala, her foster sister. She can't follow the ball when playing fetch so she lets Nala get it, sort of hides halfway and pounces on Nala to get involved. She's getting more snuggly, not a real big cuddler yet, but at least when she's tired she'll do a little leaning in. Still seems to be doing well with what vision she has and really only seems to have issues outside on sunny day; she does well indoors and on cloudy days with things within a few feet. She's even started running and jumping a bit, she hadn't done that before. Ginger does well on leash and is crate and potty trained. She also does well off leash for about a mile as long as you have music playing on your phone so she can follow the music. Ginger would do best in a home with other dogs for her to play with. She is great with kids, cats, and dogs. She rides well in a car and loves to meet new people. Ginger probably has some Australian cattle dog (heeler) in her. If you are interested in adopting Ginger please fill out a pre adoption application. Https://linktr.ee/northernstardogrescue
