Australian Shepherd puppies and dogs in Woodbury, Minnesota

Hazel is a 6 year old dog who would love a new life in the country. She would like a home with lots of room to sniff around and spend her days outside. She loves to keep her head on a swivel in search of danger and makes a great watch dog. For this same reason, she can be wary of strangers and will bark if she is unsure of them. She is a super sweet and cautious dog who responds well to love and kindness and a regular schedule. Hazel is not a pack dog and doesn’t want to share her home with other dogs or pets. She is a well-trained house dog, and has free roam in the house.

Elsa, at a bit over a year, is a sweet, playful young dog who got off to a rough start, but seems to be ‘none the worse for wear’. She may be part Aussie or Australian Cattle dog. Typical dogs from the area she came from have multiple breeds and nearly all of them have some herding dog, some German Shepherd, some corgie, and remarkably, a dash of Chihuahua. What exactly Elsa is, only DNA will confirm. Whatever her genetics, she is sweet, playful, weighs 37# and appears to be housebroken. She gets along well with other dogs and puppies and loves people. She walks nicely on a leash. She has a moderate energy level. What more could you possibly want? Elsa came to PUP when her family could not afford to care for her. She lost a litter of puppies, likely because she was just not getting enough food to support herself, let alone a litter of pups. Sad as losing the puppies was, it likely saved her life. Now that she has a full food and water bowl and has been protected against fleas and ticks, she looks and feels good. She is having fun just being young and alive. There are three puppies in her foster home and she loves cuddling and playing with them, so she is getting her chance to sort of be a mommy. Here is an odd thing. Elsa has double rear dew claws. There are only 6 breeds of dog that have rear double dews, and all of them are big, like Great Pyrenees. Where those double dews are coming from is anyone’s guess. It is hard to imagine one of her parents being part GP! She has stunning 'marble' eyes that are part blue and part brown, a trait somewhat common in Aussies. Elsa is crated during the work day and over night. Although it is not her compete favorite place to be, she is fine with it and goes into her crate willingly. She does appreciate a treat as a reward. Elsa has been vet checked, is fully vaccinated including rabies, and de-wormed. The $375 adoption fee (check or cash) includes the cost of Elsa’s required spay/neuter in late July it is done by the PUP vet. We do place dogs outside the metro area but a plan for the required spay/neuter must be in place. We do not ship.

Anna is a little rabble rouser who loves to play and it doesn’t seem to matter how big or how small her playmate its, she just wants in on the action. Most of the time she comes out on top. Anna appears to be about 8 weeks old and is a mixed breed that includes some herding dog, possibly a Kelpie or Aussie. Dogs from the area she comes from nearly always have some German Shepherd, a dash of husky, and a teaspoon of Chihuahua in their DNA. We have sent DNA in for testing on Anna’s brother but results aren’t back yet. We do know a lot about her, tho. Her coat was in rough shape when she arrived, but it is coming in nicely now. It is very shiny and her face will be unique and amazing. She has white toes and sweet brindle patches on her legs. She, as well as her siblings, is quite the cuddler and she loves to be held and fussed with by his foster. She is quite the explorer and all in on going new places to see what she can see. She will be a mid-sized dog when full grown. Anna and her siblings Olaf and Sven, along with their auntie Elsa, were surrendered to PUP because their owner was deeply impoverished and simply could not afford to feed them. They had all (including the people) missed a few meals before the pups were surrendered, but the pups were otherwise healthy. Anna loves people and gets along well with other dogs, but she is a hard player. She is accustomed to going outside and does much of her pottying outdoors, but is using newspapers reliably in the house. The early months are when puppy learns the social skills needed to be a skilled dog in dealing with other dogs and a good citizen in the human world. Adopters should be committed to getting puppy into lots of new and different human social situations, hearing vacuums, trucks, and rattling garbage cans, meeting people who are clapping, laughing, with hats, tools, bikes and skate boards. AND puppy needs many opportunities to meet and greet dogs of all shapes, sizes and dispositions. Just sharing a home with another dog is not as much doggie socializing as puppy needs. If good canine social skills are not learned and maintained during these early months, it will be very difficult to ever master them. Puppy play dates, trips to the pet store, puppy socialization classes and later, obedience classes are particularly important. If all this doggie time and involvement seems like a good idea, you are up for a puppy! As always, a tired dog is a good dog. Anna has been vet checked, dewormed and had one routine vaccination. She will need two additional vaccinations plus rabies vaccination at the adopter’s expense. The $375 adoption fee (check or cash) includes the cost of pup’s required spay/neuter at 6 months of age provided it is done by the PUP vet. We do place puppies outside the metro area but a plan for the required spay/neuter must be in place. We do not ship.

Meet Magellan! He had been living on the street for a few months when someone asked if we could take him in. He’s sooooo happy and bouncy! He weighs 51 pounds and is about a year old, still a baby with sparkling white teeth! He is GREAT with the other dogs in the yard, but plays a little too rough for smaller dogs. He has a chill disposition and isn’t dominant with the other dogs. Magellan is super smart and did great during his brief time in a temporary home. He learned sit and down quickly, and he does well in his crate. He loves to cuddle. Magellan loves to play! He would be a great addition to any home!IMPORTANT: Please read all below, especially if you live outside of Texas, which is where our rescue is located.Apply to adopt on our website: https://www.charmingpetrescue.org/adoptAll of our animals are spayed/neutered, microchipped, and up to date on shots.ALL of our animals are located in Boerne, TX, but transport after adoption is available to other states for a $300 fee for dogs or an additional fee varying by location for cats. If you are seeing our pets posted in your state, that's because you live near a transport stop, they are not currently at that location. Petfinder lists our pets as 'Out of Town' pets at other locations, and Adopt-a-Pet lists our location as a Transport stop. Those are currently the only options they offer to make this clear, so we put this description we've put at the bottom to explain it. You can read more about transport here: www.charmingpetrescue.org/transportWe understand transport is not an option for everyone, but we offer it at the cost we pay the transport company for those who wish to adopt from us.July 26, 2024, 4:53 am
