Story
We adopted him from an abused shelter and he became our favorite pet and companion and became our ESA. He is a very loyal guard dog who will attack anybody who comes near you or your property. Unfortunately, because he was trained to be a guard dog, he has issues with strangers, especially larger males, and he takes some time to adapt. He seems to do much better with women. He fairs well as an outside dog and has a thick coat, as long as there is a small heaterHis instincts are to herd, and kill anything that is a threat to a farm, including coyotes and even mice. Because he is a wolf breed, and young, he is always trying to find his place in the “pack”, which doesn’t mix well with young children. I wouldn’t adopt him unless your children are 12 or older. We are trying to have a child, and we just don’t think he will be suited for us. We recommend a good space to run and play. He is hyper, loving, loyal and trained. We will travel to help assimilate him.

Story
APPLICATION LINK: https://shaynesrescue.com/adoption-application-pet-central-satx/ We must have an application to move forward In foster near Tumwater, WA CASEY is a beautiful 48# Red Heeler aka Australian Cattle Dog. He has a docked tail (common in the US). He could be a purebred but without DNA test we don't know. There are two body types of the Heeler...the "mountain" type with a thick undercoat and short pointed ears. These are great for the cold weather...the coat keeps them warm and the ears don't freeze. The other is the "desert" type which is slender, short hair and big stand-up ears...better for the warm weather. Casey's given birthday is 9/19/24. He has a docked tail and a beautiful, thick coat. He will love the cold weather including the snow. He still pulls a little on the leash because he wants to sniff everywhere he goes but we’re working on that. He is crate trained and loves the other dogs. He has seen my cats and was more curious and not aggressive. One hissed and swung at him and he went the other direction. We know nothing of his background. I don’t believe he was a stray off the street. He loves people, affection, and treats. The Australian Cattle Dog is very smart because of the Border Collie in the background. Can’t tell of any other breed…only a DNA test will tell. All medical records will be provided to the adopter at the time they pick up their dog. Check out our YouTube Video… https://youtu.be/L_jsTW7abbg Adoption Fees The adoption fee includes transportation to WA/OR. All pups and dogs are fully vetted, spayed/neutered, microchipped, dewormed, have a negative heart worm test for all dogs over 6 months at time of transport, have a health certificate, and have all age-appropriate vaccinations.

Story
Meet Kira — our beautiful one-eyed girl with a whole lot of heart Kira is a 5-year-old female Cattle Dog mix weighing about 48 lbs. She’s spayed, vaccinated, heartworm-negative, and ready for her forever home. Why we love Kira Calm, steady, and low-to-medium energy Great with other dogs (no resource guarding!) Quiet, crate-trained, leash-trained, and potty-trained Loyal, intelligent, and deeply bonded to her people Confident and well-mannered with vets and caretakers Kira enjoys playing with other dogs but also loves taking time to herself to rest or explore. True to her cattle dog roots, she’s smart, curious, and responds beautifully to positive reinforcement. Ideal homeKira would thrive with an active adult or family with older kids who can offer structure, companionship, and regular exercise. She bonds closely with her person and is a classic “shadow dog” — happiest hiking, jogging, or simply sharing daily life together. A secure home with space to roam would be perfect. Her storyKira was found roaming the streets near Guadalajara with serious injuries to her eye. She trusted the right human, followed her to safety, and underwent surgery to remove her eye and end her pain. Since then, Kira has healed beautifully — physically and emotionally — showing incredible resilience and grace. Currently in Mexico, waiting for adoption Adoption Fee: $600 Apply at www.northwestwagrescue.org Kira may have lost an eye, but she hasn’t lost her sparkle — or her ability to love deeply.

Dog Name: GalaBreed: Australian Cattle Dog Spayed/Neutered? YesVaccinated? YesHeartworm Negative? Yes Good with dogs? YesGood with kids? YesGood with cats? Has not been around catsLeash experience? Yes—Gala walks well on leash and enjoys her outdoor adventuresPotty trained? YesCrate trained? YesWhen alone: Lives comfortably with other foster dogsSleeping arrangement: Sleeps in a cozy dog bed alongside her foster siblings   Meet Gala — Your Next Adventure Buddy! Gala was born to explore. Whether she’s zooming around the yard, playing hide-and-seek with treats, or heading out on exciting walks (especially near the lake!), her joyful energy and curiosity are contagious. Agile, smart, and always ready for fun, Gala has a way of turning everyday moments into little adventures. That said, she also has a wonderfully sweet and calm side. Gala loves curling up next to her people, relaxing in cozy corners, and soaking up affection. She’s affectionate, social, and thrives on companionship. Gala gets along beautifully with other dogs and children, adores her toys and chicken treats, and is happiest when she’s included as part of the family. If you’re looking for a loyal, loving, and active companion, Gala is ready to bring joy, laughter, and unforgettable memories into your life.   What Does Gala’s Ideal Home Look Like? Gala would thrive with an active individual or family who enjoys spending time outdoors and can provide regular exercise and mental enrichment. A home with a secure yard would be ideal, but she could also do well in an apartment with consistent walks and playtime. She’d be a great fit for a household with children and/or another friendly dog. Most importantly, Gala’s ideal home is one where she’s loved, included, and treated as a true family member.   Gala’s Rescue Story Gala is a beautiful Australian Cattle Dog mix who has overcome a heartbreaking start to life. She and her two siblings were found abandoned on a little-traveled road, inside a trash bag—emaciated and suffering from mange. Despite everything she endured, Gala’s spirit never dimmed. With proper care, patience, and love, she has blossomed into the happy, affectionate, and adventurous dog she is today. Gala is currently waiting in Mexico for a committed foster or trial home. Currently in Mexico and can travel with a committed trial family If you’re interested in adopting Gala, please apply at www.northwestwagrescue.org.Adoption fee: $600 ##2520918##
