Story
Our 3-year-old purebred Australian Shepherd is the sweetest, most loving dog. We have had him since he was just 8 weeks old, and he has been such a special part of our family ever since. He has the best personality—gentle, affectionate, and always wanting to be close to the people he loves. He is incredibly loyal, smart, and full of love, and he truly has the kindest heart. He enjoys being around family, getting attention, and bringing happiness to everyone he meets. He has grown up in a loving home and has always been well cared for, and he deserves nothing but the best. He knows lots of tricks including sit, stay, lay down, play dead, etc. He is a great dog but unfortunately we live in a one bedroom apartment and just had a newborn baby and we aren’t able to give him the attention and exercise he deserves and we feel we are doing him more harm then good.

Story
WISE is entirely volunteer-run and all of the donations made to our rescue go directly back to the animals in our care. By partnering with veterinary practices that support our work, we are able to save animals lives and restore them back to health. While some animals only need standard care, others require more extensive veterinary or behavioral care. Regardless of which dog you are applying for, we are looking for adopters to support our program with a minimum donation of $850. The donation may or may not be directly applied to care of the dog you're adopting but rather goes toward supporting all of the dogs in the rescue. We appreciate the understanding of our potential adopters. Please keep this in mind prior to applying.NAME: HobartBREED: Australian ShepherdDOB: Nov 26, 2025 (10 weeks)GENDER: maleHome Recommendation: Hobart would do best in a home that can provide a safe, structured, and loving environment. A puppy-proofed space, a consistent routine, and patience for training are important. An active home that can offer supervision, playtime, and positive reinforcement will help him grow into a confident, well-adjusted dog.Personality: Hobart is a very energetic and playful pup with an abundance of joyful puppy energy. He absolutely loves to play and thrives on interaction, especially during playtime. Curious and affectionate by nature, he loves being around peopleespecially when theres attention, toys, or fun involved. Hes also starting to show just how smart he is, quickly picking up on routines and enjoying time spent exploring his surroundings.KIDS: YesDOGS: YesCATS: YesTraining: Hobart is currently working on basic puppy skills, including potty training, crate training, and leash exposure. He is learning household routines and will benefit from consistency, positive reinforcement, and continued practice. With patience and structure, he will continue to make great progress.WHY DID THEY COME TO WISE: Puppy mills overbreed to the point where they produce more dogs than they can sell. Dogs like Hobart were rejected for reasons ranging from birth defects, being born with the wrong color fur or eyes, or just simply because no one wanted to purchase them. When the dogs are not sold, the puppy mills destroy them, and it is legal to do so. WISE has recently partnered with a group to save these unwanted dogs - healthy, unhealthy, and/or with birth defects - who are destined to be killed for no reason.Visit WiseAnimalRescue.org to fill out an adoption application.Adoption areas include: New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Maine, Vermont, Virginia, Delaware, Maryland, the District of Columbia, Rhode Island, and New Hampshire.
