Story
Meet Rudy, a beautiful 2½-year-old Australian Shepherd/Border Collie mix. This guy has personality & I know his best chapter is still ahead. Rudy still has work to do and needs an new owner willing to be patient as he grows his confidence. He is:🐾 Housebroken🐾 Neutered & up-to-date on vaccines🐾 Extremely intelligent🐾 Loyal to his people🐾 Does well with familiar family dogs🐾 Mostly uninterested in cats🐾 Able to be left alone in new environments without incident Like many young, high-drive herding breeds, he needs consistency. His previous owners loved him deeply, but weren’t able to keep up with the structure and daily training he needs. Because of that, he can be reactive toward unfamiliar dogs while on leash. He can bark aggressively at delivery people, but he's just showing off. He has shown he is very capable of improvement. He has all the brains, heart, and potential in the world. He is strong & he needs someone willing to invest the time it will take to make him great!

Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained,
Story
This is my daughters dog and she moved away and was unable to take her do to know pets allowed where she is staying. . Sadie is 2 1/2 years old. She is in her kennel/cage during the day when I am at work. She needs just some basic training on not jumping up on people and not licking you. She is a very sweet dog and would do great with other dogs her size. She could use a good size back yard or someone who has time to take her for daily walks to get her energy out. I want to see her go to a happy home where she can play and get socialized and get the much needed attention she deserves. I have 5 other dogs(small one's with one being special needs) and a grandbaby on the way and also take care of my elderly father and a Autistic son so I am unable to give her time and attention she needs.

Unfortunately, I do not have the time or space to keep up with his energy currently. He loves going outside for walks, will play around with any animals. He loves to jump on people. He also loves ice cubes, lol.

Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Meet Hazel, the crazy Aussie! Hazel was a gift from my girlfriend after the passing of my childhood aussie. When we got her she was very calm, loving and friendly. As she got older she became very energetic, and high maintenance. Now that we have moved we do not have the space or yard that she needs. She doesn’t get along with our other dog. So we are looking for a family with a big yard, or a farm where she can roam and run by herself, and not have other dogs around. She also doesn’t get along with our cat. We think she’d be the perfect candidate for herding cattle, or sheep. We are unsure of how she does around children. She is a super energetic dog, loves to play with her ball and other toys, and loves being outside. We have had her potty trained since she was about a month old, but occasionally she has accidents in her bed, and we cannot seem to get her to stop. We would love to find a loving and caring home for her, with lots of room for her to burn her energy off!

Story
I am looking to re-home our 4-year-old Border Collie/German Shepherd mix, Mack. He is neutered, up to date on all vaccinations, and on flea/tick/heartworm prevention (all completed 8/26). We are making the very difficult decision to find him a loving family where he can be the only dog or the dominant dog. Our special needs daughter has had worsening behaviors over the past year and qualifies for a service dog, but Mack did not pass the compatibility test to work alongside one. We have spent six months working on this, including training and daycare, but have decided this transition is best for everyone.Mack is:• Neutered/ microchipped• Up to date on all vaccinations• House trained• Great with young and older children• Very patient, loving, kindMack is absolutely wonderful with people! He is a patient and loving companion who does great with children of all ages. However, he does not do well with small dogs and needs a home where he can be only dog or with big dogs💰 Rehoming fee: $100
