Story
It's with a heavy heart that we are seeking to rehome our Australian Shepherd, kazuto. Unfortunately, due to an incident where he bit our baby, we have to make the difficult decision to find him a new family that can provide the right environment and attention he needs. Kazuto is an incredibly loving dog with lots of energy and a big heart. He’s four years old, enjoys cuddles, and is a very anxious boy. He’s up-to-date on vaccinations, house-trained, has lived with a cat since he was a puppy, and knows basic commands. We believe that in the right home, with proper attention, he will thrive. We are looking for someone with a child free home who can offer a loving, safe space where he can continue to be a happy, well-loved dog. If you're interested or know someone who might be a good fit, please message me for more details.

Story
Hiro, is an 8 year old male australian shepherd. I rescued him 3 years ago in the mountains of Utah. Tracked down his owner and decided to keep him. He loves to play fetch non stop. He thinks he is a lap dog when being petted. He is good with kids. They like to carry the ball or toy around and have Hiro follow them. We are only rehoming him because he has become to dominate over our Black Lab. He will make a good one dog family or if you able to train him with other dogs.

Story
Please read bio before applying! Meet Merlin. This young man has had a rough go of it at just 1 year old. Merlin came to us as a commercial breeder release and when we got him at 6 months old, he had never been handled by humans. As a result, he is very distrusting of humans and requires a lot of patience and time to adjust to new people. Merlin is very dog friendly and because he is more comfortable with dogs than humans, we are requiring that he go to a home with at least one other canine. This will help set him up for success. He will also need a home with a secure fenced in yard, as he can be a bit of a flight risk, and he will need a home with no small children. Merlin has the potential to be an amazing companion, he just needs someone who will give him the time he needs to adjust

Story
🐾 Ozzie — The Playful, Toy-Loving Entertainer Ozzie is a 3-year-old Australian Shepherd mix with a big personality, a big heart, and a fluffy tail that never stops wagging. He loves people, enjoys attention, and will gladly be your playful shadow. Ozzie knows basic commands, wrestles happily with friendly dogs, and is an expert at fetch—especially catching toys out of the air. He can be protective of his high-value items (toys, treats, food), so a home familiar with resource guarding would be best. He’s kennel trained, very well-behaved when left alone, and thrives on play and connection. Ozzie and his brother Bowie grew up together, play beautifully together, and truly enjoy each other’s company. They would love to be adopted together, but it isn’t required—they can also succeed independently in homes suited to their needs. Ozzie’s Ideal Home: ✔ Adults or families who understand resource guarding ✔ A playful home ready for fetch, fun, and training ✔ A friendly dog companion—preferably not toy-possessive ✔ Could be adopted with his brother Bowie or independently If you want a fun, affectionate dog who will keep you smiling, Ozzie just might be your perfect match. 🖤🐾 ----------------------------------------- If you’re interested in adopting, please apply online at mscrescue.org/adopt. An approved application is required before we can schedule a meet & greet. Once approved, we’ll work with you to ensure it’s a great fit—and if it’s not, no worries!

Story
🐾 Bowie — The Happy, Velcro Aussie Mix Bowie is a 3-year-old Australian Shepherd mix with a heart full of sunshine. This sweet, tail-wagging boy loves nothing more than being close to his humans. If you want a loyal shadow who radiates joy, Bowie is your guy. Friendly and eager to please, Bowie already knows basic commands like sit and down. He’s mostly quiet, though he may join in if another dog is barking. He’s learning not to jump up for affection but redirects quickly—he really just wants to make you happy. Bowie is kennel trained, well-behaved when left alone, and loves being in the company of people. Bowie and his brother Ozzie have lived their entire lives together and play wonderfully as a pair. They would love to be adopted together, though it’s not required—they can also thrive separately in the right homes. Bowie’s Ideal Home: ✔ A family who enjoys lots of companionship ✔ Someone eager to continue light manners training ✔ A home that appreciates a loving, people-oriented dog ✔ Could be adopted with his brother Ozzie or on his own If you’re looking for a sweet, gentle boy ready to follow you anywhere, Bowie is ready for his new beginning. 💛 ----------------------------------------- If you’re interested in adopting, please apply online at mscrescue.org/adopt.
