Story
Joseph is the cutest little bundle of personality. Only about 5 pounds, he’s an Australian shepherd/Pomeranian mix who loves toys, the great outdoors, and his people. There’s a lot of energy in this happy boy, but he also likes to relax and snuggle. Joseph is 4 months old. He’s good in his crate, working at potty training, and is starting to figure out walking on a leash. Joseph absolutely loves other dogs and would love to have an active dog BFF. He chases balls, has fantastic zoomies, and wants to win every game of tag. We bet he’d be a natural at agility or dog sports. Joseph would love a home with a physical, fenced yard where he could race around and have fun. He’d love an active person who will take him on adventures. This happy boy is being fostered in the St. Louis area. ##2628704##

Story
We’re not sure about Veronica’s backstory, but we know that she’s likely been through a lot. It seems as if someone wasn’t always very nice to her because she shuts down in some situations. But she does want to be right with her person, following closely on their heels. We think Veronica is about 6 years old. She is a gorgeous Australian shepherd with a gentle personality. While she is recovering from heartworm treatment, she still has energy and wants to play.  Veronica is deaf and has limited vision. She’s very smart and has learned several touch commands including “good girl” and “come.” She is learning to walk nicely on a leash and is housebroken. She sleeps nicely in her pen overnight. Veronica would do best in a home with a friendly dog to help give her confidence. She does not like being left alone for very long, so she’d love someone who is home most of the day. She’d love an active person because she loves to explore and go on adventures. She’d prefer a physical, fenced yard to keep her safe. This sweet, beautiful Aussie is being fostered in the St. Louis area.  ##2378212##

Story
Sweet senior Stevie is a handsome guy who loves taking walks, wandering around his yard, and hanging out with his human. Just about 10 years old, Stevie is likely an Australian shepherd mix. He's pretty low energy in the house. He gets really excited when it’s time to go for a walk and he jumps up and down at dinner time. Stevie likes to lie at the top of the porch steps and just watch what’s going on in the yard. He comes in when called, especially if there’s a snack involved. He knows “out” and “eat” and is working on “place” and “touch.” Stevie has excellent house manners. He’s potty trained and has never had an accident. He doesn’t chew or get into things. Stevie gets along well with calm, respectful dogs. He’s been good with the kids he’s met when he’s been out and about. He’d love a home where someone isn’t gone all day. He’d really enjoy a fenced yard because he sure loves to spend time outside, just soaking in the sunshine. Stevie is a little shy at first, but comes out of his shell as he gets to know you. This sweet boy is being fostered in the St. Louis area. Please fill out an application: https://www.speakrescue.com/pre-adoption-form ##2527563##

Story
Arwen’s story is heartbreaking. She was dropped off at an emergency vet’s office with a horrific injury across her back. The area was infected and swarming with maggots. The vet’s office worked tenaciously to heal this sweet girl with the awful pain. No matter what medical procedures she endured, she greeted them with a wagging tail and wonderful disposition. In the meantime, her people vanished and never checked on her again. Now we are on the quest to find this beautiful and gentle Australian shepherd the happy ending she deserves. Arwen is about 4-5 years old. She is fairly mellow and, although she can be playful, she wouldn’t mind being a couch potato much of the day. She loves to cuddle with her humans and thinks snuggling is just the best. Arwen is completely housetrained, does well in her crate, and is working on leash training. She’s pretty polite in the house and has lovely manners. Arwen is deaf and is learning hand signals. She understands “sit” and “no” and is working on other signs. She’s very food motivated and is eager to show off for treats. Arwen would prefer a physical, fenced yard because she absolutely loves being outside. She would love a big yard where she could roam and explore. She barks at the door when she needs to go potty or would like to go play. Arwen is very friendly with other dogs and would enjoy having a friendly fur sibling. Because she has a patch of fur that might not grow back, she wears a shirt in the cold and will need to be protected in the sun. She has the most remarkable blue eyes and the cutest head tilt. Sweet Arwen is being fostered in the St. Louis area. Because the trip here was tough on her, we’d like to keep her adopted relatively locally.  ##2641490##

Story
Happy and sweet senior pup Scooter needs a forever family. Somewhere between 10 and 14 years old, Scooter is pretty energetic for his years, but he certainly loves relaxing too. He’s an Australian shepherd who really enjoys playing ball. He’s all about the chase, but isn’t always convinced it’s a good idea to bring the ball back! Scooter is very good in the house. He doesn’t chew or bother anything. He’s potty trained, but needs plenty of breaks to go outside. He gets along great with his canine foster sibling and pretty much adores everyone he meets. Scooter would love a home with someone around a lot. He absolutely wants to be near his person as much as he can. He would love a home with a physical, fenced yard. He’d be fine with another dog but would be totally OK as the only pup in the house.  Sweet Scooter is being fostered in the St. Louis area. Please fill out an application: https://www.speakrescue.com/pre-adoption-form ##2378226##
