He eats twice a day and that’s it. His stomach is sensitive so we don’t give him really any treats. He doesn’t love to go on long walks or run, he loves to just be at home.

Brave was rescued as a 4 to 5 week old puppy. He has been with us for the last six years and become a very beloved family member.

He’s happy to be outside or inside, laying at your feet or on his bed. He has the most easy-going personality and loves to be with people. He is super friendly with other dogs as well, and plays well. He has a sensitive stomach so we don’t give him hardly any treats. He’s happy to just eat his food in the morning and in the evening. He’s super fast, smart, and easy to train. We are heartbroken to have to give him up.

Coax / Jameson

Australian Shepherd Husky

Male, Adult
Santee, CA
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Coax and Jameson are six-year-old Aussie/Husky mix brothers, 65 lbs each, neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped. They were raised from an accidental litter and need a new home after their family moved and downsized following the arrival of a newborn. Outdoors They're high-energy, smart, and eager to please; indoors They're mellow, affectionate, and independent. Coax is the more expressive sibling, while Jameson is gentle and quiet. They alert to strangers near the home but are friendly on walks. They do well with similar-sized dogs and are good with smaller animals when supervised. Both have no history of aggression toward people or children. Jameson previously had a damaged tooth removed but has no current issues. Their last vet visit was 08/01/2025. They're healthy, playful companions looking for an active home. It is with a heavy heart that I need to rehome them. They are my my family- but the change in lifestyle is unfair to them.

Story
Astro is a happy, handsome boy with a gorgeous black-and-white coat, a smile that lights up the room, and the kind of loyalty you dream about. At around 1–2 years old, he’s in that perfect sweet spot: playful, curious, and full of love to give! He’s the kind of dog who will follow you around like your shadow, ready to join in on adventures, car rides, or cozy naps on the couch. Astro is super smart and loves learning new things — especially when treats are involved! Whether it’s fetch in the yard or a puzzle toy in the living room, this boy loves fun and engagement. Astro would do best in a home where he can get lots of attention, playtime, and a bit of structure to help him keep shining. He’s already got a great start and just needs someone who’s ready to keep building that bond with him. If you’re looking for a loyal companion with a big heart and even bigger potential, Astro’s your guy! 💫
