Story

We got Wrangler as an 8-week-old Australian Shepherd puppy from a local farm. He is now 8 years old. He is a very sweet, affectionate dog who loves being around people he trusts and enjoys giving kisses. He is gentle with kids, very food-motivated, and wants to be close to his family. Wrangler has developed anxiety over the years, and our current environment triggers him daily. Triggers involve hearing unfamiliar people talking nearby or other dogs barking close by. Despite years of training, veterinary help, and environmental changes, things have progressively worsened. Rehoming is a very sad decision for us, but our hope is to give him a calmer place to live where he can relax and feel secure. We’re looking for a quiet, low-stress home with fewer daily triggers — ideally a peaceful rural or semi-rural environment, or a quieter neighborhood with space. He does well with other dogs in the house, but prefers being close to his humans.

Story

Felix is a beautiful red aussie, approximately 7 to 10 years old. We are helping a veterinary find a home for Felix and his companion Minnie. Felix is aged at 7-10 years old, he is neutered and is more stoic and chill than Minnie, but he gets bouts of the zoomies that are hilarious to witness. Felix is stiff and dominant when meeting other dogs. He is not outright aggressive, by any means, but if a dog challenges him he will respond. Felix is quick to correct Minnie when she is over the top with him, but he is fair and quick in his corrections. Felix knows basic commands as well as a trick or two and loves to show off for treats! Felix is also slightly protective of his food and water -- we believe that is because he is diabetic. Felix is a controlled diabetic and has done VERY well on his insulin. This is a lifelong health issue and he will have to remain on insulin for life. Felix is crate trained and doesn't like to mess in his kennel. He has the walking schedule down and will let us know if we're late. Both dogs were found off highway I-40, just outside of Amarillo Texas. We have done everything possible to find their owners, with no luck, so now they are looking for a new home. I believe Minnie and Felix need to find a home together, preferably with no other dogs, or a very submissive female. We have no idea how they are around kids as this is a vet clinic, but they are both herding breeds and showcase most of the traits. Neither dog has EVER been mouthy towards staff or visitors. Mini is friendly with all people and has done well with controlled meets of other dogs. She did jump at one of our clinic cats, but after the cat slapped her, she decided that avoiding them all was the best course. Minnie is crate trained as she waits quietly until she has to use the bathroom and then she will let us know. Minnie does well on the leash and knows several basic commands. She LOVES her big brother Felix and is a prime example of the Australian Shepherd Breed, in her mannerisms, energy level and desire to be with people.

Story

Pretty as can be with a soft, thoughtful presence — say hello to Nita! New experiences still sparkle with a bit of mystery for this bright young girl: fresh sounds, unfamiliar paths, new people and pups. She prefers to take a moment to observe first, but she is curious and warms up quickly when she can approach on her own terms. Once she decides you’re part of her circle, her tail loosens into a happy rhythm and her trust unfurls in a lovely, steady way. Nita gains confidence from other dogs, so she’ll thrive in a home with a canine companion. She’s already nailed the essentials — easy leash walking, excellent house manners, knows how to use a door, and the cozy art of being a beloved family member. She’s smart, eager, and picking up new skills and confidence with surprising speed. In addition to another friendly dog, Nita will need a securely fenced yard and a family who gives her just a bit more time to ease into new environments. She doesn’t need anything extraordinary — just the space and patience to settle in and discover how good life can be. Nita’s story began on an Indian Reservation. After her owner passed away, she and several other dogs were rescued and given a fresh start. Now Nita is ready for her own forever home. She’s estimated to be around 10 months old and roughly 35 pounds. Likely an Australian Shepherd / Australian Cattle Dog mix — and, as with many rez dogs, almost certainly a beautiful blend of many hardy, healthy breeds.

Story

Hi, I’m Cedar. I used to be a rez dog but now I’ve been given a second chance at a safe, fun life. I’ve already discovered that this new life is pretty wonderful! I’m a kind, gentle girl searching for my best friend—my human. I’ll be polite with others, but my heart and focus will always be on you. I don’t need constant attention from everyone we meet, just a person (or people) to call my own. I’m fine sharing a home with other dogs, but it’s not a requirement—what I truly hope for is a human who wants me as their companion, someone who will see me as their best friend too. I get along with my foster siblings, but I’ll be honest—sometimes my foster brother tries to bug me into playing, and it gets a little annoying. I do best with other dogs who like outdoor adventures and don’t need constant playtime at home. I’m sensitive and eager to please, so gentle guidance works best with me. If you use kind words and positive reinforcement—praise, happy voices, claps, and “good girl!”—I’ll shine. I pick things up quickly, and encouragement builds my confidence. Even a simple “off” or “down” is all I need to listen right away—I never want to disappoint you. I’d love to go on walks, hikes, and adventures, or just be part of your daily life. The more time I get to spend with you, the happier I’ll be. I’m quiet, smart, and ready to learn how to fit into this new lifestyle. I’ll roll over for belly rubs, stretch out for a massage, or curl up at your feet. I’m crate-trained and do well there, though I won’t need it for long. And yes, I’ve got my own little quirks—but only the kind that will make you smile. If you’re looking for a loyal, gentle best friend who will love you with her whole heart, I’m right here waiting. Best guess on my age is about 1.5 years and I'm 35 to 40 pounds. Love, Cedar **** Cedar is out of town until Dec 1st. If you would like to adopt, please complete an application at https://www.circle2rescue.com/dog-adoption-application/ The adoption fee of $325 includes the spay/neuter, vaccinations, deworming and microchip. ##2486146##
