Story
Teemo, is a 7 year old Australian shepherd born on 3/19/18 . Teemo is a very cool dog that loves playing catch all day or until your arm gives out. Even though Teemo is very energetic, he loves receiving love and hugs and will lay down with you. We decided to give Teemo for adoption due to small children as well as allergies caused to the 2 year old. The wife and I work all day and cant give them the attention they deserve. We want him to live a good life with the attention he deserves and be happy and loved. He has a lot of love to give and a lot of balls to catch!

Story
Hello! Unfortunately my husband and I have come to the sad conclusion that we will need to rehome our 3 year old Aussie, Augie. We adopted Augie in 2022 when she was 6 months, after she was found on the streets of Bakersfield. We had a baby this past December and Augie just hasn’t seemed to get comfortable with the baby. We also aren’t able to give her the attention and exercise she needs to be happy. Augie came to us leading heavily with anxious behaviors— lunging and barking at anything that would pass us. We put in a lot of training with her and she has improved so much. She’s a loyal dog and will bark when meeting new people but warms up quickly. She’s very friendly and snuggly once she’s familiar with you. She would do okay with a house with another dog, but a slow introduction at first would be helpful. She would not do okay with a house with cats or children. She’s a sweet girl who would thrive with an active owner!

12/17/25 12:33 CAMeet adorable Carlitos! A 2-year-old neutered Chocolate Kelpie mix bursting with energy and smarts. Carlitos enjoys going on as many walks and adventures you want to take him. He is an active dog who thrives on structure, routine, exercise, and mental challenges. Carlitos is a social butterfly that made many friends, both furry and human, at the shelter. He`s playful and adapts to the play style of his companions.During his time in foster, we learned that Carlitos is house-broken, crate trained, spends most of the time in the yard, and frequently seeks for affection. He is also learning agility and fetch, which full fills his breed needs.If you’re ready for an active, loyal buddy with tons of potential, Carlitos can’t wait to meet you. Email advocatessbcas@gmail.com for more information, his advocate would be happy to chat with you!
