Bandit is a 10 mth old neutered male Australian Cattle Dog. He weighs 34 lbs. Bandit was pulled from our local animal shelter. Bandit is a very good boy. He is so willing to please and ready to learn anything you would like to teach him. He has a moderate energy level and a wonderful temperament. He will require an owner who will spend time with him. He is a smart boy who thrives on learning new things. He would be a great hiking partner or just best bud. He would love to show you how smart he is. He can't wait to find his forever best friend.

Story

Meet Kat! 🐶 She is the sister of Kit, who was adopted last month. She is our sweet Blue Heeler mix, with a heart full of sunshine and zoomies! Kat was born around September 20, 2025, and she’s everything you’d expect from a happy, well‑socialized puppy. She adores people, loves other animals, and approaches the world with pure enthusiasm. If it moves, she wants to play with it! As a young herding‑breed mix, Kat is bright, energetic, and eager to learn. She’ll thrive in a home that’s ready to invest time in training, structure, and basic obedience. Kat has plenty of puppy energy to burn, so a secure, fenced‑in yard where she can run, explore, and practice her zoomies is a must. With the right guidance and consistency, she’s going to grow into an incredible companion! Adoption fee: $450

Story

Hello! This is a hard one for me. This beautiful boy is Cobain. He has displayed territorial tendencies in the past with new people coming into my home. I’m having a baby soon & I’m worried for Cobain and my child. I want to do what’s best for Cobain. Adoption fee is to ensure he’s not being taken for bad purposes. Cobain needs a home where he can be his energetic self. I will give you his crate/toys/etc. He is good with cats and female dogs, I have not tried male dogs since his neuter but doesn’t seem to react to the male dog who walks past our house. I am having to move from a farm to an apartment & Cobain needs space or someone who can take him for walks/let him run in a contained area. I have spent the last ten years somewhat sheltering Cobain due to his unpredictable behavior & fear of him getting hurt or hurting someone else. I have tried online training but I guess I’m not the best trainer for a dog like Cobain. I’ve given him love though. He needs an understanding owner.

Story

Weight: 54 lbs 💙🐾 Meet Bandit – A Gentle Soul with a Playful Spark! 🐾💙 Bandit is a handsome blue heeler mix with a shy, thoughtful personality and a heart full of potential. He may take a little time to warm up, but once he feels comfortable, his playful side shines—especially when it’s time to play fetch, his absolute favorite game! 🎾 This smart boy already knows how to sit and shake, showing off his brains along with his good manners. As a herding breed, Bandit has natural instincts that can make living with cats a bit challenging for him, so he would be happiest in a cat-free home where he can truly relax and thrive. Bandit would do best with a patient, loving family who will let him build confidence at his own pace while enjoying fun play sessions and gentle companionship. If you’re looking for a loyal, intelligent pup who just needs a chance to blossom, Bandit could be your perfect match. 🐶✨ Dogs: Yes, although we recommend bringing in your pups to meet him! Cats: No thank you!! Kids: Unknown, we always recommend brining in the whole family to meet with any new potential family member!!

Story

Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DxQD-9Bt1kw John Connor has been with the rescue since last summer since he and his mom were dumped in the country. He is about 18 months old now and I don't understand why he hasn't been adopted. He is adorable, he only weighs about 40 lbs, he is great with other dogs, people, and cats. Perfect little dude. He loves to run and play and splish splash in the water. He would make a great companion for an active individual or a family that enjoys outdoor adventures or spending lots of time in the backyard. He is currently still in Oklahoma where he was rescued but he can only be adopted out of state where people treat animals well. He has to be prepaid and picked up directly from transport at one of our transport drop off locations below. If things don't work out for some reason, which rarely ever happens, we will either find a local foster to take him in or he will go back to Oklahoma on our next transport until a new home is found. Note: No dogs are advertised as potty-trained because most dogs need at least some re-training in a new environment and after being in a shelter/rescue environment/strays. www.facebook.com/desideratarescue (copy and paste into a new browser window) Transport locations: - Washington State (Kennewick, Spokane, Tumwater, Tacoma, Tukwila, Lynnwood/Edmonds, Bellingham) - Oregon (Portland and Springfield) - Colorado (Ft Lupton) - Idaho (Heyburn and Boise/Meridian) - Utah (Ogden) - Wyoming (Evanston, Rock Springs, Laramie) - Montana (Missoula) - Illinois (Vandalia, Springfield, Chicago) - Indiana (Spiceland, Burn Harbor) - Michigan (St Joseph, Battle Creek, Ann Arbor) - Wisconsin (Madison, Wausau, Eau Claire, Appleton, Milwaukee) - Minnesota (Minneapolis/St Paul) - Iowa (Des Moines) - Ohio (Columbus and London) - Pennsylvania (Erie, Pittsburgh and Harrisburg) - New York (Buffalo and Albany) - Connecticut (Enfield) - New Jersey (Bedminster) - Nevada (Las Vegas) - Arizona (Flagstaff) -- Vermont (Brattleboro) Vetting: neutered, microchipped, rabies vaccine, bordetella vaccine, dhpp vaccine x 3, lepto vaccine x 2, dewormed several times, on monthly flea and tick prevention, on monthly heartworm protection, heartworm tested (negative).

Waylon

Australian Shepherd German Shepherd Dog

Male, 1 yr

Defiance, OH

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Shots are up-to-date,

Story

This spotted cutie is Waylon!Waylon was recently surrendered from a multi-dog household after his previous family could no longer care for him. He is a friendly, energetic pup who is looking for an active home ready to keep both his brain and body busy. Waylon has been an absolute angel with our staff and has been easy to handle. He can be a little anxious when meeting new people, but offer him a treat and you’ll quickly become his new best friend.Despite his large size, Waylon is surprisingly well-mannered on leash and has done excellent in a securely fenced area. He is probably not a good candidate for a tie-out. Waylon is still working on house-training, but he is young, smart, and very eager to please, making him a great candidate for continued training.We do not know if Waylon has experience with cats or young children, but given his friendly nature, we believe he could do well with proper introductions.Waylon is available for immediate adoption and ready to find a family that can keep up with his fun-loving, adventurous spirit!
