Story
Blue is a sweet dog - a purebred medium size (48 lb) Australian Shepherd that loves everybody. He will cuddle with you and stick to you like Velcro and great with other dogs at the dog park. He is very well trained and will walk at your side without a leash, sit, come, stay, lie down, back up, etc on command. Everybody loves him (including me). I will be moving overseas at the beginning of March and it is cost-prohibitive to take him with me. I am so sad to have to re-home him, as you can imagine, but I am very hopeful I can find a new loving home for him. The lucky person / family will get a dog that brings much joy.

Story
Olivia is a 2-year-old White Australian Shepherd that weighs about 50 lbs. She was originally found by her previous owner tied to a tree. She was abandoned by this owner and left at a pet sitter’s home. She is deaf and partially blind but does know some hand signal commands (Stop and come). Olivia is friendly and playful with other dogs, loves people and is very affectionate. She's very smart, sleeps well but sometimes gets up at night and walks around. She is leash trained and enjoys her walks. The Foster has helped her with some mild separation anxiety. Olivia is best suited in a home with other dogs and/or kids as she needs stimulation and activity. She is house trained and will be spayed, vaccinated and chipped soon. If you are interested in Olivia, please go to our website: www.amrdog.org and complete the application. LOCAL AREA ADOPTION ONLY

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
I adopted her from the Agoura Hills Animal Shelter, where they estimated she is a 10-week-old Border Collie mix. She’s incredibly smart, playful, and full of personality. True to her breed, she thrives with an active lifestyle and loves both mental and physical stimulation. She’s already learning so quickly—she’s making great progress with potty training, walks nicely on her leash, plays fetch, and knows how to sit. She’s currently teething but is easily redirected to her toys and has not shown any behavioral issues. She’s surprisingly independent for a puppy and absolutely loves her crate. She sleeps through the night from about 10 PM to 7 AM, which has been amazing. She’s affectionate, curious, and loves to play, but also enjoys her calm time. I’ve already taken her for her first vet checkup, and I’ve purchased many supplies for her that will be included with her adoption (crate, toys, etc.). I’m looking for a loving, understanding home that can give her the time and love.

Story
I hope this message finds you well. I’m reaching out to share the story of a special dog named Loki, who is in search of a loving forever home. Loki came into our lives (November 2025) after our daughter adopted him from the Simi Valley Animal Shelter in February 2025. As a delightful and energetic herding dog, Loki thrives on having ample space to run and play, something our daughter couldn’t fully provide. Loki is 7 years old and fully house trained. He loves going to the Laughing Dog Inn for playdates. We are unable to provide the space or energy Loki needs. Loki is loyal, protective, funny, and energetic. We are committed to only loving homes with space to run.
