Story
Meet Skye!Skye is a beautiful young mama who has finished raising her puppies and is now ready to find a forever home of her very own. We have her listed as an Australian Kelpie, but she may also be mixed with Blue Heeler based on her personality and appearance. Like Blue Heelers and other herding breeds, Skye enjoys her exercise and has medium-to-high energy levels.Skye loves toys, enjoys playtime (including a game of fetch) and is just as happy settling in for a good cuddle. Skye walks great on a leash, but does like to stop and sniff! She loves doing puzzles, lick mats and doing nosework before bed. Skye is housetrained, but will tear up a blanket if she gets bored. She is very quiet in her kennel and will go right in with a treat. Skye is a very smart girl - she knows some basic commands: sit, stay, lay down and leave it. We are still working on off and tap. She has also completed a few training classes at Zoom Room!She did best with a slow, thoughtful introduction to the resident dogs in her previous foster home. After a week or two, once routines were in place - including separate feeding and managing high-value toys - she did well with them. Once she settled in, she enjoyed playing and wrestling with a foster puppy, sharing toys and even playing tug-of-war with her. Skye does have some unpredictable resource guarding behaviors. She is slighly reactive to other dogs, but this has improved with training. Her foster mom is still keeping a watchful eye to find out potential triggers. Now that she is in a different foster home, she loves to be the center of attention and would probably do best as an only dog. Skye does like kids and seems to understand that she should be gentle with little ones. However, her rough and rowdy playstyle suggests she may knock littles over when playing. Throwing toys around is very fun for her.Because of her playful energy, she may do best in a home with older, dog-savvy children. When excited, Skye has previously mouthed on hands or tries to herd feet, but we have mostly stopped this behavior with some training. Skye would really enjoy an active home. She loves going on walks and playing outside. Because she is a younger, high energy girl, we are requiring a fence for her at this time. She will get wound up without enough exercise. Skye is working on becoming her best self with training and thriving in her foster home, but would love her forever home. If you ar

Story
CARLY is an independent pup, just investigates everything, wants to see what other pups are doing and loves to play and wrestle with the others. She loves to eat and reminds me when she is hungry. She is working on potty training. Her adoption fee is $300. If you are interested in meeting Carly, please fill out the adoption application on our website. www.foreverhomedogs.orgAll adoptions are $300 per dog for puppies under 1 year, $250 for adults 1 - 9 years old and $150 for senior dogs which include spay/neuter, micro-chipped and up-to-date on required shots. Senior dogs, at our discretion, are adopted out at $150 per dog because we know they will have less time with your family and may eventually have more needs as they get older. But we feel these dogs deserve to live out the rest of their lives as part of a loving family.
