Meet Auggie!This 6-month-old Mini Australian Shepherd was rescued from a kill shelter, and hes ready to start his happily-ever-after. The second he decides he likes you, he flips right over for his favorite thing: belly rubs. Augustus came to ARPO after being owner-surrendered with his two brothers and landed on the euthanasia list at an overcrowded shelter before being saved. Now, hes ready for the second chance he so deserves and a forever family to love him for life. Hes working hard on potty training and even learning to ring the bell. Treat-motivated and smart, hes catching on to commands quickly. Auggie loves other dogs, adores kids, and would thrive in a patient, loving home where he can continue to blossom. Neutered, microchipped, and full of potentialAuggie is ready to find his person.

Story
Meet Hannah, a 1-year-old Catahoula/Cattle Dog mix and the sweetest Velcro dog you will ever met. Hannah is the very definition of the 3-3-3 rule. For a typical rescue dog, it takes 3 days to decompress, 3 weeks to understand they are home, 3 months to understand they are a family member at home. For Hannah it might be a bit longer in her new home to adjust due to hearing disability and her past. However, as her foster mom, I can tell you that she is absolutely worth the wait. She will be very cautious and unsure, but she is not aggressive or reactive. She needs a family that will put in the time and patience for Hannah to be her silly, sweet self. She will take longer to adjust to men because of her past interactions with them. It took Hannah about 4-5 months to freely walk around the house without trying to hide. Now she walks and hangs out with the whole family. A little history about Hannah. She was born deaf but has good vision. She was neglected and possibly abused the first year of her life in the home of a backyard breeder. She was then surrenderedto a shelter. She was living on borrowed time due to capacity concerns andwas extremely scared and confused. We had to give this girl a chance to blossom, and she is quickly becoming this sweet and happy Velcro dog. In the past five months inside her foster home, she has gained so much confidence and has become such a sweet girl.She loves listening to music loudly in the car on the way for a pup cup, especially Enyas Caribbean Moon. She probably likes to feel thevibrations or the beat. She does generally well in the car and has now learned to hop in and out with no problems. She loves her walks and will walk right next to you. Sometimes a little too close where she will accidentallystep on the back of my feet but she just wants to be so close so she feels safe on our walks. After a good long walk she enjoys sitting on the couch watching TV (with subtitles) with her foster family. Hannah's favorite genres are sci-fi, cooking shows, and rom-coms. She doesn't seem to like Stanley Tucci and she growls when he pops on the screen.We won't fault her for that. She has started vibration collar, light, and sign language training and is doing very well. When she feels safe, and confident with the humans around her, she is eager to learn. She knows stay, off, and we are working on sit and come here. She LOVES fetch and would like a home with plenty of indoor and outdoor toys to play with. She loves a good chew at night to settle in. She looks to her doggie foster siblingsfor her queues and mimics what theydo. Hannah wants to be in a pack. She will need a home with another dog friend that can be her forever companion and most importantly her guide and leader. This is a must. If you do not have a second dog, might we suggest Wapiti, another foster in ARPO. She felt very safe with him. She also needs a 5-6 completely fenced in yard for her protection. No holes or gaps. Due to her past, she is very wary and cautiousof male figures and slow to come around them, but shows promise with repeatedexposure.Her favorite special treats are Cheetos, Cheek chips (From Hollywood feed), and doggie icecream. She has perfect potty manners and will let you know when she needs to go. She is crate trained, and her crate is her safespace that needs to be respected and not used as a punishment. She is doing very well living in a home with big and little dogs and several cats. She is respectfulof the cats and if there is a patient feline in the home that loves to snuggle in bed with her, she would be over the moon. Hannah being deaf doesn't define Hannah. She is kind, sweet and needs a patient loving home that will appreciate her and make her feel safe for the rest of herlife.Hannah will take some time and patience, but she is well worth it. She is a diamond in the ruff :). Home inspection will be required as part of the finalization of adoption of Hannah.Transportation is available for the perfect home.

Story
We’ve had Wickett for the last 5 years. He has traveled many states with us and hiked many trails and has ran freely as a farm dog in between. We believe now at this stage of his life he would do best with an experienced family with no kids or kids that are older and can respect his space. Our son is in his toddler years and there is a lot of sporadic movements and food that puts him in difficult situations. He is friendly around our son and enjoys his pets when they are supervised. He is muzzle trained. Very sweet and loving dog. Wants to be with/near his people. Is very smart and food driven. Loves to chase squirrels/small animals and can jump 4ft fence. Meets new people best when he is outside in open space. Let him approach in his own time. Very protective of his space and area. He knows sit, stay, down, paw, touch. He has a dog brother for past 5 years and takes time being introduced to other dogs and animals.
