Story

Meet Piper — A Beautiful Blue-Eyed Aussie Looking for a Loving Home Beautiful Piper is an Australian Shepherd with gorgeous blue eyes and a gentle, sweet personality. She may be a little shy when you first meet her, but give her some time and patience, and you'll see her wonderful personality begin to shine. Piper and her sister, Phoebe, found themselves in a kill shelter after their unspayed mother had an unwanted litter. Sadly, this is something that happens far too often, and these beautiful girls had no say in how their lives began. Now Piper is ready for a family who will give her the love, security, and patience she deserves. Piper enjoys going for walks and being brushed—she especially loves the one-on-one attention that comes with a good brushing session. She's perfectly comfortable with her sister Phoebe and could potentially live with another dog, provided they are a good match. However, Piper becomes frightened and overwhelmed when surrounded by large numbers of dogs, so dog parks and busy dog-filled environments would not be a good fit for her. Because Piper is still building her confidence, she would do best in a calmer home with older children who can give her the time and space she needs to feel comfortable. She could be happy as your only dog or with a compatible canine companion. Piper is a special girl who doesn't need a chaotic life—she needs a patient person who will let her blossom at her own pace. Once she trusts you, you'll discover what a sweet and loving companion she can be. Adoption fee includes: first 2 DAPP, bordetella, deworming, flea preventative, sterilized, heartworm test, microchip Adoption fee: $525.00 If you are interested in adopting, please fill out an application and a representative will get back to you shortly to answer any questions you may have. The adoption policies and applications can be found at the following links: https://fancycats.org/adopt-a-cat and https://fancycats.org/adopt-a-dog.

See our calendar of adoption events at https://fancycats.org/(scroll towards bottom) You can save animals like this one by becoming a foster! Fosters are like bridges between high kill shelters and forever homes. We need fosters so that we can save cats and dogs before they are euthanized at the shelters.

Story

Meet Phoebe — A Beautiful Girl With a Heart of Gold With her gorgeous merle coat and beautiful green eyes, Phoebe is impossible to overlook—but it’s her sweet, loving personality that will truly steal your heart. Phoebe and her sister were surrendered to a kill shelter after an unfixed female in their family had an unwanted litter. Sadly, situations like this happen far too often in rural areas where dogs are allowed to roam and are not spayed or neutered. Phoebe didn't do anything wrong—she simply found herself caught in circumstances beyond her control. Phoebe is a very sweet, affectionate girl who loves being close to her people. She is cuddly, gentle, and happiest when she knows she's safe and loved. She gets along with other dogs and is perfectly comfortable with her sister, but she is dog-selective. A busy environment with lots of dogs can be overwhelming for her, so she would do best in a calmer home with a compatible canine companion—or as your one and only. Phoebe is also good with older children who understand how to give a dog space and respect her boundaries. This beautiful girl has so much love to give. She deserves a home where she can relax, feel secure, and become part of a family that will cherish her for the rest of her life. If you're looking for a sweet, cuddly companion with stunning good looks and an even more beautiful heart, Phoebe may be the girl you've been waiting for.

Calypso

Australian Shepherd Hound (Unknown Type)

Female, 2 mos

Potomac, MD

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Story

Calypso — an adorable 2-month-old Coonhound, Treeing Walker/Collie, Border mix who's settling into her new world one day at a time! Calypso is still warming up to her foster sibling, Rebel, but she's making great progress — the two were already playing together this morning! Slow and steady, this girl is figuring out where she fits in, and she's clearly on the right track. Crate training has been a bit of a mixed bag so far. Her first night went great, no problems at all. Night two was tougher — there was some whining that led to a 1 AM bed invitation. Totally normal for a pup adjusting to a brand new environment, and with patience and consistency, she'll get the hang of it. Calypso stats, because you asked: 2 months old and already showing her sweet, adaptable side Australian Shepherd x German Shepherd — the "double dose of smart" combo platter Making new friends status: in progress, but off to a great start Warming up to other dogs at her own pace Currently working through some crate-training jitters Currently accepting applications for patient pet parents and cozy bedtime routines Fair warning: Calypso is going to want a family who understands that adjusting to a new home takes time — especially when it comes to the crate. Give her patience, consistency, and a little grace during this transition period, and you'll have a loyal, brilliant companion who settles in beautifully once she feels safe and secure. If you're looking for a puppy who's still finding her footing but has so much love and loyalty to give, Calypso might just be your perfect match! Ready to fall in love? Apply today — Calypso is waiting to meet her people! Warning: extreme cuteness (and a few 1 AM cuddle requests) ahead. **If you're viewing this on Petfinder, please visit www.petconnectrescue.org to complete our adoption questionnaire.** The adoption fee for this puppy is $475, which helps with the cost of routine vet care. A $250 spay/neuter deposit is required at time of adoption. This fee covers spay/neuter at one of PetConnect’s preferred veterinary partners. If the adopter chooses to use their own veterinarian, the deposit will be returned with proof of sterilization. For more information, please email: svessali@petconnectrescue.org

Story

https://foha.org/pet/alaska2026/ Hello, I'm Alaska! I'm ready to be your one and only! Fun fact about my Australian Shepherd breed! One-in-five of my breed is born with a naturally bobbed tail! So I'm kinda of a big deal with my super cute short tail! I love to play and romp and entertain you with my playfulness! Afterward, we could go on long walks and you could help me learn how to walk better on the leash. I'll point out all the unfamiliar smells on our walks and help you get your steps in each day! It's a win for us both! I'd much prefer walking on trails than in a neighborhood where I might come across other canines. My social skills are rusty so I could really benefit from an adopter with experience training me how to walk better on a leash. I love walks oh so much! Once I get my wiggles out, I'd be happy to snuggle in your lap for cuddles! I know sit and down and paw! I do love people and can be very affectionate, but at home I would thrive with having you all to myself! When it's time for bed, I'm okay sleeping in a crate. Or if you have to leave me during the day, I can handle that too. I'll be fine until it's time to head outside and do my business! Oh and I really hope you have one of those soft brushes to keep me handsome! My fluffy fur changes twice a year and I could really use your help making sure I look my best! My last parents said I got upset around food or toys. I hope you don't mind letting me dine alone. I'd do best without canine or feline siblings so I don't have to share toys or treats. I'd really like a second chance and with the right home, I know I can be a good boy! Won't you give me a chance to show my best qualities and be patient to help me improve in other areas?
