Story
Lucy is a sweet little dog who would do great in a home with older kids, over 14 or adults only. Lucy is a high energy, herding dog who has natural instincts to herd young children and in the process may nip at them. Lucy is a total lap dog who loves to be with her person! Lucy is more fond of women, but warms up to men as well. Lucy loves to give hugs and jump into your arms! Lucy enjoys going for runs and even went with a foster for 3 miles! Lucy will need someone who will be willing to keep up with her beautiful coat at a groomer. Lucy is crate and mostly potty trained. She will catch on quickly once she knows the routine. Lucy's ideal home would be someone who works from home or can take her to the office for the day. Lucy does well with cats and dogs her size or smaller. Lucy can be ornery and pick on larger dogs which can get her into trouble. Lucy can be vocal at times.

Story
Hi there! My name is Hobie, and I am a one-year old Miniature Australian Shepherd who weighs 25.8 pounds. I am described as shy, reserved, and timid. I’m a breeder release so I didn’t receive proper socialization. Everything seems new and scary to me but I am learning how to be a real pup in my foster home! Due to my more fearful nature, I need a quieter home with kids 16 or older. I'll need to be your one and only canine companion. I do best with woman and would love a home with women to shower me with love. If there is a man in the home, he will need to be very patient with me as we work on building trust. My forever family will need to give me time to acclimate to my new environment. I will typically go to my spot on the couch or my crate when I’m scared. I am fully house trained and even learned the doggy door very quickly on my own! However, I will need a fully fenced in yard at my forever home. I have slowly warmed up to my foster family. They shared that I am such a sweet boy and I “desperately want to love and be loved.” His minimum adoption fee is $295 plus a $15 fee, if 4 months or older, for rabies registration for McLean County residents. He has been neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, heartworm checked, dewormed, and is on flea and heartworm preventatives. For information about this dog's breed(s), visit: http://www.dogbreedinfo.com/abc.htm To fill out our adoption application, go to: http://fs16.formsite.com/WishBoneCanineRescue/adoptionapplication/index.html Wish Bone Canine Rescue  1303 Morrissey Drive Bloomington, IL 61701 www.wishbonecaninerescue.org           Since its our desire that you have a pet you can enjoy a lifetime of love with you, we take special measures to ensure that the pet is the best match for you and your family.  We require that you complete our online www.wishbonecaninerescue.org (Please give us 24 hours to verify your information).

I ride well in the car and I love my crate ! I only have three legs but that doesn't stop me I can move quick ! Sometimes hard wood floors make me nervous with my missing leg. I love to walk on rugs! I need someone who can show me how to walk on a leash because I don't quite understand it yet ! I am potty trained and I love to cuddle. I'm very calm and quiet and I just want to follow you around where ever you go!
