I am 42 lbs, and I am looking for my forever home. Adoption Donation: $450 Meet Riley! This handsome Australian Shepherd is a sweet, playful boy with a big personality and lots of love to give! At just one year old, Riley is full of energy, enjoys spending time with people, and absolutely loves other dogs! Riley is looking for a special someone who understands that building trust takes patience and consistency. He has a history of resource guarding around food and can be uncomfortable with certain handling situations, including having his leash removed. Because of this, Riley needs an experienced adopter who understands canine behavior and is committed to providing positive reinforcement training, structure, and appropriate boundaries. An adult-only home is required, ideally with someone familiar with herding breeds who can provide the physical activity and mental stimulation Riley needs to thrive. Riley may need a little extra guidance, but he has so much potential and deserves a family willing to understand him, work with him, and love him for who he is. Could you be the person Riley has been waiting for? All dogs are microchipped, neutered, current on all vaccines, heartworm tested (if age appropriate), and up-to-date on preventatives at the time of adoption. All household members and any dogs from the household need to be present to be able to adopt. A photo ID will be required at the time of adoption. Appointments are recommended. All applications are considered general. Specific animals are NOT put on hold for adoption. When you visit, our adoption counselors will be able to make suggestions based on the type of pet you are looking for and help you find the best fit for your family. Animal House Shelter cannot guarantee the breeds of the adoptable animals. The animals are posted on the website as the breed or breed mix based on their physical characteristics they most resemble. We also cannot guarantee the ages of our adoptable animals or how large puppies will be when fully grown. We look forward to seeing you soon!

Story
Mongo is fostered in Omaha, NE. Mongo is a black tri male Australian Shepherd.  He is estimated to be about 8-9 months old and weighs just under 40 lbs.  Mongo was found as a stray, so not a lot is known about his past. But clearly he has a need for the soft and comfortable things in life. If you are looking for a snuggle buddy this winter, then stop your search now!!  Mongo is an expert level cuddler and would love to help you pick out your next throw pillow set. (This boy loves, and I mean LOVES, pillows.)  He’s amazing in the car and walks fairly well on a leash, although he is still a puppy and pulls occasionally. Mongo is potty trained and sleeps perfect in a crate all night. (Make sure he has comfort hook up!!) This boy loves toys almost as much as a pillow, but he is very gentle with them. Besides some light chewing, he hasn’t actually destroyed one! While currently living with cats in his foster home, he hasn’t quite figured out what makes them tick. Slow, meaningful intros will be crucial to success in a forever home with a kitty friend. He isn’t mean to them, he just doesn’t understand their cues and gets a little too excited. When it comes to other pups, he says the more the merrier! He loves to play and chase and tug! He currently lives with dogs ranging from 10 lbs to 115 lbs and does well with all sizes. We have seen no evidence of guarding, although he does like to steal toys when playing. Mongo comes with a home requirement of 25 pillows for him to steal. Could this be your buddy?! ##2872562##
