Story
Bernie is a sweet, high-energy boy who needs a family ready to give him lots of love and attention. He is a purebred Australian Shepherd with a temperament typical of the breed. He enjoys playing, going on walks, riding in the car, and solving puzzles. Bernie does experience significant separation anxiety, which can lead to destructive or reactive behaviors. He often follows his owners from room to room and prefers to nap as close to his people as possible. He is crate trained and knows the commands sit and come. Bernie attempts to play with our cats, though his play can be too rough. He has bitten a few guests in our home, which we believe is related to protective behavior. He currently spends much of the day in a crate due to our full-time work schedules and would do best with a family that can be home more often. Bernie is taking anxiety medication, and we are actively working with him to reduce his separation anxiety.

Story
After a rough start to life, these Aussie mix puppies are thriving in their foster home. They were dumped in rural Mississippi and found by a caring FedEx driver as they huddled on a trash pile on the side of the road. Now they have learned to trust people and love to play and snuggle. They will be ready for forever homes after 3/6. They are located in Memphis, but can be transported to the Midwest, Colorado and the Northeast for an additional fee.

Story
Joni is a 3yo pure breed Australian Shepard. We have had her since 8wks old. In most ways she is a typical Australian with high energy and wants to work. She has been around dogs from daily walks, numerous camping trips, hiking adventures etc.but she has a dominate personality and depending on the other dog I’m not sure how she would be. Joni does have sensitivity with her neck (since we brought her home), so she likes to challenge putting a collar but we put one on everyday. She is crate trained. She does have a correction collar and has on during day and on walks. Her recall is overall good. Best if in a home with no kids Or older (13+) She would be a fantastic Dog on acres of land where she could Herd and just run!!

Hi, I'm Selena! I’m a 1-year-old Australian Shepherd mix with a sweet personality and just the right amount of spunk. I currently weigh around 20 pounds but still have a little growing left to do. I’m getting the hang of sleeping in my crate, though I’d much rather be close to my people. I’ve already mastered the doggie door and am learning that outside isn’t just for play... it’s where I’m supposed to go potty, too. Who knew? I absolutely love people and am currently living with a cat. He’s not really into playing, so I leave him alone—no big deal! I'm up to date on vaccinations, spayed, and microchipped. Apply to meet me today! Adoption fee includes the following: Spay/Neuter Rabies Vaccination Distemper / Parvo Vaccines (includes series of 3 for puppies) Bordetella Microchip with prepaid lifetime registration Deworming ##2394426##

Story
HOMEOWNERSHIP REQUIRED! Meet Deimos (aka Saul), you loyal best friend in the making! Are you searching for a sweet soul to complete your family? Deimos is a 4-year-old, 60-pound bundle of love who’s ready to find his forever home. This handsome guy is fully potty trained, knows how to use a doggie door, and has mastered his basic commands — sit, stay, heel, lay down, come, and shake — thanks to a comprehensive board-and-train program. He’s crate trained, calm when left alone, and sleeps soundly through the night (especially if snuggling is involved — his favorite!). Deimos has all the fun, joyful energy of a puppy without the pesky puppy habits. Silly? Wiggly? Bouncy? Absolutely. Chewing and constant jumping? Not this gentleman. He’d love to be your adventure buddy on hikes and outings, but he’s just as happy to cuddle on the couch or serve as your very handsome co-worker during Zoom meetings. He’ll brighten your days with his happy thumping tail, curious fascination with animals on TV, gentle head nudges, and soft paw taps asking for pets. Deimos is friendly with his foster brother and could live with another dog, especially a confident one who can help show him the ropes. He can be a bit apprehensive about certain dogs he sees out in the world, so structured introductions and a supportive, confident handler will help him continue building positive experiences. He adores people and bonds deeply, though he prefers a thoughtful introduction. When meeting someone new, he just asks for a few minutes to observe and choose when he’s ready for affection — and once he decides, he’s all in. Given a little space and structure, he quickly shows just how loving and trusting he truly is. Deimos will thrive in a home that provides consistency, gentle leadership, and lots of love. In return, he’ll give unwavering loyalty, companionship, and endless heart-melting moments. He is neutered, microchipped, up to date on vaccinations, and ready to start his next chapter. If you’re ready for a devoted companion who will be as loyal to you as you are to him, apply today to meet this true gem. Adoption fee includes the following: Spay/Neuter Rabies Vaccination Distemper / Parvo Vaccines (includes series of 3 for puppies) Bordetella Microchip with prepaid lifetime registration Deworming ##1193696##

Meet **Burkheart** — the dog who seems to have quietly read the *“Perfect Companion”* handbook and decided to follow it. This handsome boy checks all the boxes and then a few more you didn’t even know you had. Burkheart is the kind of dog who simply fits into life. He loves people of all kinds and greets everyone with a soft heart and a gentle spirit. With other dogs, he’s wonderfully intuitive — able to read the room like a pro. He’s happy to romp with playful puppies or keep things calm and respectful with senior dogs. No drama, no chaos — just easygoing companionship. Enjoy a good walk with your pup? You’ll love strolling with Burkheart. He’s a true gentleman on leash, happy to walk beside you and take in the world at your pace. And when you get home? He’s house trained and well mannered, the kind of dog who settles in like he’s always belonged there. Burkheart also comes with some pretty great genetics on his side. With traits often seen in Border Collies and Retrievers, he shows the best of both worlds: • Loyal and deeply devoted to his people • Intelligent and eager to please • Gentle and emotionally tuned in • Friendly and social And let’s talk about the looks for a moment — because wow. His flluffy black-and-white coat is as soft as it is striking, and if you look closely you’ll notice his adorable cropped tail which only adds to his charm. But what truly makes Burkheart special is his heart. He’s the most loving fella — gentle, easygoing, and wonderful with both humans and other dogs. He leans in for affection like he’s been waiting his whole life for someone to love on him… and maybe he has.  If you would like to adopt, please apply at:If you would like to adopt please apply at https://www.circle2rescue.com/dog-adoption-application/ The adoption fee of $350 includes the spay/neuter, vaccinations, deworming and microchip.  The adoption fee of **$350** includes the spay/neuter, vaccinations, deworming, and microchip. ##2674236##
