Australian Shepherd puppies and dogs in Norwalk, Connecticut

I have an Adoption Pending but hope you will consider one of our other dogs in need. Thank you! One of the advocates at a shelter in AL made us aware of this lovely little lady who was picked up as a stray, and not for the first time. This time, however, her former owners decided not to reclaim BlueBeri, and that was her lucky day! She is now a Sunshine dog, and she will never be lost or homeless again! Beri has the most interesting coat - it's shiny and mostly black with some beautiful brindle marbling throughout. She has intelligent eyes that seem to look right into your heart and soul. You can certainly tell she was once someone's beloved companion, and she longs to be just that once again. Beri soaks up affection like a sponge and will most certainly enjoy curling up on your lap while watching TV or reading a book. She takes treats gently, walks nicely on the leash, and is the epitome of all things you could ever want in a BFF. Beri gets along with other dogs but needs a home without cats. Heather, one of our volunteers in AL, tells us, "She’s an excellent retriever and is faster than she looks! She loves retrieving a toy, and more often than not, she brings it back. She’s playful and trots around the yard like a little queen. She lets me know when she’s ready to go back inside and is a social butterfly, greeting the other dogs in their kennels when she heads back to her space. She is super cute and perky with her adorable little ears and is so compact at 41 lbs! Her coloring is simply incredible!" So there you have it - Beri is all good things in a little package! If we ventured a guess as to what breed Beri is, we'd have to say she's a Heinz 57, but perhaps she has some Aussie in her. Whatever it is that went into her DNA mix, it created one totally AMAZING pup! Beri's microchip from her prior life shows her age around 10 years, but we think the age may have been an estimate, as she certainly has more energy than the average senior dog, and we place her at about 8-9 years of age. Once she is done playing or walking, she is happy to chill and hang out with her humans. If you would like to give Beri the best years of her life, and you are approved to adopt through SGRR, please contact Mary to be considered to adopt Beri. Check out Beri's video! BlueBeri is micro-chipped, spayed, and up to date on vaccinations. Beri is under treatment for heartworms and has been given a Proheart 6 injection for 6 months of heartworm prevention. Beri should be ready to come north to be directly adopted in mid-January. Can you just picture her curled up with you on a cool winter day after a walk in the fresh air? Well then... What are you waiting for? Ask about Beri soon! Rescued dogs come with a range of needs - from behavioral to emotional to medical. When approved applicants adopt such dogs, they agree to become an important, forever part of their life journey by continuing the rehabilitation we have begun. If not yet approved for adoption, please visit our website to learn more and to submit an online application. Click here to visit our website. Please contact us with any questions regarding your application status. PLEASE APPLY by submitting an application via this online link: Click for Adoption Application About Our Rescue Before being approved to adopt, all potential adopters need to complete our online application and participate in our pre-adoption review process. The process includes the completion of an online application, a reference from the applicants' vet, a phone interview, and a visit to the applicants' home. The application process helps us determine what type of Golden would be best suited for the applicants' life style. In some cases, the specific dog you are interested in may have found a home before this process is complete or further assessment may find that this dog is not the right match for your family. We are regularly getting new Goldens in need of a home, so we encourage you to apply and get approved so that when the right dog comes along you will be ready. The information provided on each dog is based on observations of our vets, volunteers, fosters and when available, trainers. While we do our best to report any and all issues, SGRR does not make any guarantees as to the health or temperament of any dog. Dogs evolve differently in different environments and we cannot predict with any certainty how the dog you adopt will act in your home.

Under the terms of the contract, all adopters are required to bring the rescue to a vet within 7 business days. The dogs receive basic veterinary care prior to adoption. If your vet identifies an illness that an adopter is not willing to treat, then the dog is returned and a full refund is provided. Many of our dogs are fostered in private homes and we do not have a facility to visit. We are committed to our dogs before, during, and after adoption! The rescue retains title to the dog and can never be released or sold. Should the adopters no longer be able to keep the dog, SGRR must be notified so that we can take the dog back into rescue and place it into another home. We reserve the right to remove a dog at any time should we find the adopter is no longer caring for their Golden in a way we see fit. Adopters then have to agree to follow up visits as needed. Please be a ray of light for this Sunshine dog and make a tax deductible donation toward medical and other expenses. Every cent of your generosity goes directly toward the care of a Sunshine dog.

If you’re looking for a loyal sidekick, the Joey is your guy. We think this gorgeous, tricolor male could be a cross between an Australian Shepard and an English Shepard, both of which are very intelligent breeds. He would be the perfect dog for someone who works from home. Joey walks well on a leash, even though he pulls a bit, and rides well in a car. Joey gets along well with other dogs and loves to play with the dogs in his foster home. Joey would make a great hiking buddy as he is always ready for an adventure. He was picked up as a stray and is guesstimated to be between 3-5 years old. Due to his activity level, we think he is closer to 3 years old. Joey has been neutered, is to up to date on vaccinations and is microchipped. Unfortunately, Joey did test positive for heartworms. Since he is asymptomatic for heartworms, he is on the slow kill method to eliminate them, and he should test negative in a year or two. In the meantime, he can live life normally without any restrictions. Joey’s adoption donation is $450 which includes the $165 transport fee. Joey is being fostered in Arkansas. If you would like to adopt Joey, please fill out an adoption application. The first step in the adoption process is to fill out an online adoption application. You can find a copy of that application here. We sometimes receive a lot of interest on an animal and can't always reply to each email in a timely manner.

After you submit your application, please allow a few days for a volunteer to review your application. During this time your vet reference will be checked and a volunteer with determine if it is the best match for you and the animal. Applications are not approved on a first come, first serve basis.

I am a truck driver looking for homes for my 5 3 1/2 month old puppies. I lost my significant other, who passed unexpectedly, the same time the pups were born, and with the pups although we travel and they have fun, we are only home a few days a month. I want them to have the experience of having a home life. I want adopters who will never raise a hand to them or hurt them, and who are committed to keeping them until they reach their very last day. They are smart, love to be hugged and held, and have begun learning the wee wee. They eat mostly people food -- boiled beef liver is their favorite. Please, no brokers, middlemen, etc. These pets are great companions and just want to be loved. They have been traveling with me in the trucks now for about a month. They are happy but I want something better for them. Please, serious inquiries only, and no solicitations.

Hello, I’m Coco! I’m a 1-year-old Aussie/Corgi mix, and at just 20 pounds, I’m the perfect size to snuggle right into your life. People always say I’m the happiest little bundle, and it’s true—I can’t help but smile, especially when I’m around friends. My bright blue eyes are my favorite way of saying “hello,” and I’m always ready to share love with anyone who crosses my path. I get along wonderfully with dogs and kids, which makes me a great fit for a lively home. I love running around in the backyard, riding along in the car, and exploring the world on long walks. Adventure and play keep me joyful, but I’m just as content curling up nearby while you relax. Whether it’s sunshine or fresh grass, I find happiness in the simple things and love sharing that joy with the people around me. I’ve learned how to be calm and patient when it’s time to rest, so you can count on me to be a good housemate. More than anything, I’m searching for someone I can call my family. If you’re looking for a soulmate who will greet every day with excitement and every moment with love, I’m right here waiting for you. Thank you so much for your interest in adopting a dog from A New Chance Animal Rescue (https://anewchancear.org). We are a 501c3, tax deductible organization. ANCAR is a foster-based rescue, and we adopt within a 90 mile radius of Bedford Hills, NY. You will find the adoption application here: (https://anewchancear.org/adopt/adoption-application/). All fields on the application must be completed. Please read about the adoption process (https://www.anewchancear.org/adopt/our-adoption-process/) so you'll know what to expect when you submit. Our dogs are in foster care and we do NOT have a shelter or boarding facility. AN APPLICATION MUST BE COMPLETED IN FULL AND APPROVED BEFORE A DOG CAN BE MET. This is a firm policy. Our busy volunteers are not able to respond to questions about the dog or dog meeting requests in the absence of an application. We know these dogs very well because they are in foster care. Please read the profiles of the dog(s) you are interested in prior to submitting an application. If there are specific requirements stated (ie: Fenced Yard or Canine Friend Required) these are included because they are vital to the happiness, health, safety and adoption success of that dog. We are only able to save as many dogs as we have foster homes (https://www.anewchancear.org/foster/faqs/) and resources for. We provide medical care including vaccinations, testing, deworming, spaying/neutering and microchipping before transporting our dogs. We provide all supplies, preventatives and any follow up vet care necessary while they are in foster care. These costs are high and the number of lives we can save is entirely dependent upon donations from people like you. We do not receive funding from private foundations or government sources. If you can find room in your heart to help us, with any amount, we are truly grateful (https://www.anewchancear.org/help/donate/). We are a 501c3 organization, so all donations are tax-deductible. It is only through the kindness of supporters like you that we are 'changing lives...one tail at a time' by providing our dogs with 'A New Chance.' (https://anewchancear.org) Thanks so much.

Ms Lulu is quite the character! She is happy and funny and Loves to run and run. When she stops, she stops! She took over the house and yard the first day protecting and keeping all threats away from the fence. She is a snuggler and will sit on the couch and sleep in the big person bed or an open crate. She does prowl and protect through the night. She is house trained and uses a doggy door. Lulu is okay with small dogs but maybe no dog under 20lbs until proper intros are made - otherwise male or female dogs are fine. No idea about cats. She is a cattle dog and seems as if she may have been trained to herd beyond what comes natural? She got out of the gate once and was fine with the goat and chickens. Cattle and horses would be safe. She is an active working dog who would love an active lifestyle if you can provide it. She loves the water too. She will herd children by nipping on their heels so maybe a bit older children who understand that's just what her breed does and won't cry. She does pretty well on a leash, rides in the car like a pro, loves puppies because she was a mom a time or two. Her tongue hangs out and her jaw is a bit off (maybe birth defect or an injury) but it does not affect her appetite! She is spayed, HW negative and up to date on shots. Lulu is a really sweet dog and wants a home of her own. please apply at www.krrtx.org/forms Please note Lulu is in San Antonio, TX and is available to be transported to your location with Your TX Rescue Connection transport. The fee includes adoption and transportation fee.
