Story
Meet Indie- a 2 year old aussie mix with the cutest ears and smile. Indie can be skittish at first, but with slow intros and gentle movements she warms up fine. She does appear to have some reactivity with barriers. Indie enjoys playing with toys and getting yummy treats. She loves fetch. Indie had surgery to correct an issue with a luxating patella and is doing great! She is about 35lbs, but has gained weight due to the cage rest after surgery and can likely drop some pounds. Indie is a herding breed, so as always, we strongly encourage anyone interested in her to do research on these types of dogs. Indie would prefer to be an only dog.

Story
This wonderful girl was part of a neglect case and was forcefully surrendered. She is such a sweetheart despite the hardship of her young life. She is friendly to everyone she meets and likes kid. She does have the Aussie energy so will need an active family to keep her busy. She will also need all the basic general training as she was kept outside. We don't think she has ever been inside a house so it will be an adjustment for her, please be patient. She also spills her food as she was fed by having food thrown to her. She doesn't know what to do with a dog bed and is protective over any toy/treat she is given since she was never given these either. Any family will love the joy and smiles she brings as she is just happiness in a puppy body. We also use the most animal-friendly transport on the road. Rescue Riders Pet Transport.

Hi I'm Rosie. I am the sweetest 4 month old, 15 lb. spitfire you could meet. My foster mom believes I am aussie,and some other small breeds in this little package. I get along well with everyone, even my foster brothers and sisters. But my focus is on my person. I will be your shadow. I love to snuggle. A fenced yard would be very beneficial for me, because I have a lot of puppy energy. Doing awesome on my housebreaking.

Story
Hi, I'm Mountain and I am looking for a new home. I am a beautiful dog and I know it! I like to sit on your feet or stand in your lap. I got my name because I like to stand on people with all four feet, like a mountain goat. I am dog selective and don't like being greeted by other dogs on leash, but I have lived with and played with other dogs. I love people most of all. I am good with little kids, but do ask that I have a space that's my own where I can go if I need a break. I am housetrained, microchipped, crate trained, and know quite a few commands. Unfortunately, due to some family health issues, I need to find my next family to love. Fee includes several months of flea/tick and heartworm meds as well as any leftover food.

Story
Pax is an eleven year old Border Collie that was adopted from our facility over ten years ago. Unfortunately, he was picked up as a stray and we were thrilled to find a microchip on our ol' man and to see that he was JTAC alumni. Sadly, we weren't able to make contact with his previous adopters, despite phone calls and a notice mailed. With senior animals, we have to take extra precaution because we are usually unaware of their true health status. Thanks to the JJC Vet Tech Program, they were able to do xrays and bloodwork on him. Our vet gave him the clearance to go up for adoption so he is now looking to find his last home to spend his golden years in. Although Pax is an old man, he has PLENTY of pep left and loves to play. Toys, tennis balls, and treats are his favorite and he has no issue working for them. He loves to play fetch and can chase a ball from sun up to sun down. He loves to sit, lay down, give paw, and occasionally bark on command for his treats. He would do great as the only pet so he is looking to be your one and only. If you have a soft spot for senior dogs, Pax is your guy! His adoption fee is $90, which includes his vaccines, fecal exam, deworming, heartworm test, heartworm/flea prevention, registered microchip, and neuter. He is already fixed!
