Australian Kelpie puppies and dogs in Bellingham, Washington

Let me introduce you to the warm soul we call George, He has a comforting presence. George can come off a little reserved at first, but that’s just because he’s not the type to push for attention. He’s the quiet kind—like a best friend who’s always there, steady and grounding. George has all the traits of a loyal, loving dog and he is ready to find himself at home. What stands out most about George is how easy his company is. He’s slow and steady across the board—whether he’s meeting new people, walking on leash, hanging with other dogs, or encountering a cat.. Based on his look and temperament, we think he may be a Kelpie/Shepherd mix, estimated to be around 4 years old, and he weighs 50 lbs. As with any rescue, we can’t say with total certainty on age or breed, but he is fully-grown size so we can testify to how perfectly midsize he is. George is so fortunate and is being fostered in a loving home while he waits for his adoption day and this not only gives us a front-row account to hi personality but he also gets to learn and master the best house manners while he waits. His foster has praised George for how well he rides in the car- laying in the back peacefully, only perking up once they have arrived. He is also both house and crate trained! We loooove that! George lives with both cats and dogs in his foster home and he gets along well with them all. We spent an afternoon with George outside of his foster home to get a feel of his play style and approach to new dogs along with observing him meet a new cat. The first thing that jumped out was just how politely George meets new dogs on-leash. He showed a little excitement when he saw the first dog, it was contained but obvious, he was happy to meet a possible playmate.With each additional dog the approach was the same, neutral and calm. Although he never found the perfect playmate to really let loose, he was easy company and is dog-friendly. The most natural pairing was with a female, similar age to him, with a sense of confidence and bouts of playfullness. If going into a home with another dog, that would be almost exactly the type of dog he would be best with. Dogs like George, who come across as reserved, are often naturally independent, confident and content with their own company. Another quality we love! Even though we know George lives with cats we love to see a dog in a new environment, meeting a new cat to get a grasp on what that could look like once he is arriving in a new home. He was introduced on leash and he was curious but respectful and calm. As the cat got more animated and jumpy playing with a toy, George definitely thought it was an invitation to play. He obviously can live peacefully with cats but we all know, cat personalities are a variable. If joining a house with a cat(s), it would be best if they were dog savvy. He will respect a swat and may need one to mind a boundary. George would do great in a home with a yard, if for no other reason than his simple joy of laying in the shade on a patch of green grass. It is heaven to watch! He has great basic leash skills with a nice pace but a hectic, busy environment might throw off his vibes. Basically, the busy environment of elevators and lobby are not for him. He could do it, but we can see he isn’t much of a busy city guy. The same goes for family-life, he could do it but he has really been spoiled by a foster home with the occasional 20 something year old kid coming by to do laundry. In other words, empty-nester? Not with George! He is ready to fill your time with good company! Invite this boy home to peaceful place and a patch of grass, with a doggie friend and a cool cat and George will be there to take it all in—his pace and by your side! If you’ve got room in your life for a gentle heart and a quiet companion, George is ready to bring calm, sweetness, and unwavering loyalty into your world. Questions?

Sophie here is just about the sweetest, sensitive, people-centered pup with quiet, loyal energy I have ever met. She isn’t going to be the loudest in the room—but she is sure going to be most attentive. That sweet, soft presence of her woo’d me in no time at all and I have no doubt she is going to do the same for you. Take a look at her video to fast-track the falling in love then come back to read more about this amazing girl. https://youtu.be/_pm2DZpp_aM Sophie is a 1-year-old (ish) mystery mix, like all rescue dogs., breed and birthday are details we cannot guarantee. She looks like a Border collie/Kelpie mix but her presence is that of a basset hound. What we do know is that she is a quietly devoted, deeply sweet dog. She is sort of like a shadow, close by, never underfoot. She’s not clingy just... present, I'll say from experience, she is the best company. Sophie is house-trained, crate-trained, and currently waiting for her adoption day in a loving foster home. Her foster shared that she is calm inside the house, respectful of space, and easy to live with. Outside, she can be a bit more reserved. She doesn’t enjoy loud environments or busy energy. She is polite passing and meeting new dogs but doesn’t have much interest beyond that. She isn’t reactive in these environments, she simply looks for her person and retreats a little. It is gentle and truthfully, not every dog wants to be out on the town and that is okay, we love a homebody! So, what is Sophies ideal home? Calm, quiet, and steady. Her foster works a very traditional 9-5 and she is thriving in the routine of weekdays and especially enjoys the weekend with walks and snuggle sessions. She would love to be a solo-dog but she can coexist with respectful dogs who won’t push her to play. From what we have seen she has potential to live with a cat. We consider her possibly cat-compatible only because when she met our spicy, very confident house cat, she was intimidated and uncomfortable. We are happy to introduce her to another cat if you are interested, simply we saw no red flags and her gentle nature and responsive nature leave us feeling positive about the possibility. Lastly, this girl isn’t your dog park type and she won’t need playgroups, love and a peaceful home are the keys to her happiness. People are where her heart is. Sophie may be a bit shy in her approach to new people but it only takes a minute to warm up, once she does, she your quiet companion. She won’t bark for attention or demand your lap, but she’ll be there—next to you while you work, waiting calmly while you cook, gently checking in with a look or a soft lean. She finds safety in connection. Sophie is the kind of dog who doesn’t just want to be loved—she wants to belong. If you’re kind, value a peaceful, simple life and you’re looking for a companion to walk through life with, you are in the right place for a dream connection. Sophie is ready and waiting! Questions?

If you're searching for a smart, athletic, and loyal dog who is adventure ready, Kai is your guy! Estimated to be around 2 years old, this handsome boy is giving us undercover-corgi vibes. Of course we cannot guarantee breed or birthday but this boy looks an awful lot like long legged corgi dressed up as herder…maybe Heeler or Aussie. His personality is a beautiful balance of the classic traits the breeds are know for: brains, energy, and a strong desire to connect with their people. Take a look at him in action then come back to read more- https://youtu.be/rc2NO4SRhU0 Kai weighs in at a perfect medium size guy weighing in at 41 lbs. He is so fortunate to be waiting for his adoption day in a devoted foster home alongside seven small dogs, a cat and at one point several foster kittens and a mama cat . He gets along with all of them and has shown he can live peacefully with a calm, medium-energy dog—he enjoys a good chase game more than wrestling and loves his down time as much as a good run. His ideal dog friend isn’t the constant-play type and knows how to take breaks Kai has basic leash skills and enjoys regular walks with his foster. He passes dogs with ease and can be initially avoidant when meeting new dog. Off leash, he’s more confident and relaxed, which is where his true social side shines. His herding instinct occasionally comes through in ankle nibbles during play, but it’s more playful than problematic and something a herding-savvy adopter will understand. Kai is not a fit for apartment living—he’s an active guy who needs space to move and explore. A home with a yard is the goal, and bonus points if you’re a runner, hiker, or outdoor enthusiast looking for a dog to join you. He could be a stellar jogging partner or trail buddy! Indoors, he’s crate-trained and he happily puts himself to bed in his kennel at night when told “bed.” He’s house trained and has good manners with people, and in the house. Kai has met neighborhood kids and does well with them, though older kids are best due to his energy and occasional urge to jump when excited. Kai has lived with cats and has shown that he can cat-tolerant and respectful. He has lived with kittens to adult cats and his foster shares that he enjoys watching them play. When he met our house cat, who is very confident and approaches dogs with a very forward and fearless approach, we could see he was interested but cautious. He has the potential to attempt to chase a cat, we all know cats personalities vary so much, but with slow intros and clear boundaries he has shown he can live peacefully with feline friends. Kai is a dog with drive, personality, and potential to be your perfect pal. If you’re ready, Kai is ready to be your devoted partner for life! Questions?

We travel to WA, UT, OR, ID, VA, PA, OH, NY, CT, VT and Canada (Canadian adopters will need to pick up in Bellingham, WA  or Brattleboro, VT for the eastern Canadian border)! Our pups travel in comfort with 24/7 care on our USDA licensed vehicles, including buses and cargo vans. You can join along on our private Facebook event page to follow their adventure, connecting you with other adopters and providing updates throughout their transport journey! You will get to meet your new pup over a video call before signing paperwork, creating a fun and personalized adoption experience!  The adoption fee is $1000 and includes all vetting (DAPP with booster, Bordetella, Rabies vaccine, multiple broad spectrum deworming treatments, spay/neuter, flea prevention, a 12 month heartworm preventative injectible, heartworm test and treatment if needed, a microchip with free lifetime registration, a high quality nylon Martingale collar, a health certificate deeming the pup healthy for travel, cost of transport*, and priceless years of love and loyal companionship!  We have over 15,000 successful adoptions so far and have excellent Google Reviews: https://g.co/kgs/UQ5Pyai We care deeply about making the perfect match between dog and family for long term success.  Our rescue has a 2 acre property in Texas where we assess every animal with trainers on staff, we modify behavior as needed, and create individualized behavior plans to help prepare dogs for their future families including crate training, potty training, leash walking, etc. Our fosters are able to attend group trainings and socialization play groups to keep dogs adoption-ready. Our on-site trainers support the positive growth of our dogs and we enjoy seeing their progress!  Our commitment to comprehensive medical care sets us apart. We've received glowing feedback from veterinarians who commend our dedication to ensuring the health and well-being of every animal in our care with treatments that often go above and beyond. Our adoption fees reflect the extensive care and resources that go into each animal we save. The adoption fee is a donation to the mission and goes far beyond getting a fully vetted pet.  The rescue’s hard costs alone (excluding transport) for a healthy dog to go through our program typically range between $412 to $859, which includes boarding, food, medications, vaccines, and spay/neuter. For heartworm-positive dogs, hard costs are upwards of $1,368. Additionally, dogs requiring extended boarding, extra training, or extra medical care—such as dental work, vision care, or orthopedic care—can lead to expenses running into the thousands. Also, included in the adoption fee are costs to cover transport up to the Pacific Northwest or East Coast. Transport is a significant additional expense to the rescue.  While adoption fees help cover part of these expenses, we want to emphasize that the rescue does not receive government funding and must fundraise to offset the remaining expense balance which ranges $100-1,000++ per animal on these direct costs. It doesn’t stop there! Our adopters also receive these SPECIAL PERKS: Extensive behavioral testing and information from trainers on our staff to ensure the perfect fit for your family  Discounts on Embark DNA test kit- $30 off of Breed ID test & $50 off of Breed ID plus Health test 30 day trial of pet insurance with Trupanion A free private online dog training session with GoodPup, plus low pricing for future sessions  70% off of your first order of Fetch, a delicious PNW based fresh dog meatballs subscription Coupons for a fun visit to Petco 20% off of Dr. Cuddles pet first aid and hygiene solutions Discounted heartworm, flea prevention, and monthly dewormer  Access to our exclusive FB Adopters page, where you can network for play dates, resources, and connect with other adopters that share their passion for their adopted pup!

Meet Castiel! Castiel is currently 3 1/2 months old, and we think he may be an Aussiepoo— Australian Shepherd poodle mix, but with rescue it’s always a guess! This puppy is from a part of the US where puppies are regularly euthanized. So, this puppy needs you! If you choose a puppy from this rescue, it saves their life AND it also allows us to save the life of another in its place. Castiel is a joyful boy with a wiry coat, probably moderate to low shedder, and he’s young so he has spunky energy. He likes toys and playing with kids! He tries to instigate play and engagement. Castile is so unique and beautiful! Everywhere we take him, people talk about how unique he is! Castiel is a Good little guy! He played with Jessica - another small playful dog- and he is not too pushy with his play, for a puppy. He played chase for a little bit and would come back up to me to sit next to my feet. Once he got tired he would lay down in front of me and relax taking all the affection he could get. He is a puppy so he will need some training as he gets older, but he will learn quickly because he is very much a people pleaser. When he met my kids ages 4 and 7, he was joyful and wanted to engage with them. He’s very trusting and outgoing. He does like toys and wants to initiate play. He met a cat with us and was uninterested. Watch Castiel's video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BA8uxj60QXw Castiel is currently in a loving foster home and loves to play and take lots of naps! Castiel is a special boy who doesn't let anything slow him down. He has limited eyesight and hearing but is still fully capable of jumping up on the couch for a romp and a snuggle. He is not shy and adores other dogs and wants to be everyone's friend. Castiel is a one of a kind guy! It’s not everyday you get the chance to adopt a blue eyed wonderboy! If you are looking for a friend to spend your days with, Castiel is your guy! Castiel is still young so he will need a family that can commit to training, socialization and all the dedication puppyhood requires. Baron's new family will need to continue with potty and crate training and daily exercise. We require a commitment from adoptive families to crate train their new puppy. When old enough, they will be perfect to go on walks and hikes or show off around your neighborhood. You will be guaranteed to get lots of kisses in return from your new best friend!
