Story
Say hello to Theo, a 2-year-old Australian Shepherd mix with the softest ears and at the sweetest personality. Theo is happiest when hes getting lots of attention, lots of activity, and lots of treats. Theo is afraid of other dogs he doesn't know, so he would thrive in a quieter, rural or suburban home with a fenced yard and few canine neighbors, where he can relax, explore, and not run into dogs around every corner. He has gotten along well with other resident dogs--he just needs a slow, careful introduction period. Hes a classic herding dog wants to be by your side and wants to join you in the garden in the summer and in the garage in the winter. He would do well with an experienced dog owner, and even better with someone who has experience with and love for herding dogs. He is good with all humans, whether friends or strangers, but he is shy at first. Once hes comfortable, Theos true personality shines: *Eager to pleaseand loves to learn*Loves a good stuffed boneor an antlerand isnt a counter surfer*Housebrokenand doesnt see the point of a crate *Enjoys hikesand keeping the yard free of chipmunks*Favorite phrase:Lets go! Theo is currently in Jersey City, NJ, but city life isnt his thing, as close encounters with other dogs make him anxious. When he feels overwhelmed, he will bark or lunge, so in the city he wears a basket muzzle on walks as a precaution to prevent an inadvertent bite from his reactivity or redirection. He has lived with another dog before and might do well with the right match, but hed be perfectly happy as an only pet in a consistent home where he can just be himself. Theo has not been cat tested. If you think your home might be the right fit for Theo, you can learn more or apply through Rogers Rescues. We will happily consider out-of-area adopters for Theo. If you are interested in adopting a dog, please fill out our application. Meetings will not be scheduled without an application. Please visit our website www.rogersrescues.com to learn more about this amazing pet and to see other available dogs.

Story
Cocoa Puffs is a 6 year old Miniature Australian Shepherd. She’s a pandemic puppy and is not socialized around cats, dogs and children. She is a little bit of “Nervous Nelly” when she’s around new people or unfamiliar environment. Cocoa Puffs has resource guarding issues. If she thinks you are trying to take something away from her, she will try to bite you. This does not happen on a daily basis, but it can be unpredictable. The best method while dealing with resource guarding is to give Cocoa Puffs something more of a high value treat to trade off whatever item she thinks she needs to guard. This has worked with me. More details will be provided upon contact. Cocoa Puffs is very smart. She knows the name of all her toys. She is good at doing tricks, like sit pretty, roll over, crawl, spin right/left, go through legs, etc. Of course more training can be done :) no shame in that Cocoa Puffs loves to cuddle on her own terms. She bites onBarkBox bones and eats Farmer’s Dog diet

Male, 1 yr 4 mos
Bedminster, NJ
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Marmaduke is a big goofy lovebug! He adores children and other dogs. He is very curious about cats and chickens and is probably best in a home without those (or where he can be separated from them). He is only about 1 year old and has been in rescue all his life. He had a medical issue as a puppy that required surgery and he is completely healed from that. He will do best in a home with a secure fenced yard, another dog or dogs to play with that are not tiny since he's so big, and respectful animal-loving children that will love him as much as he loves them. If you are interested in Marmaduke, please fill out an application at our website: forrescue.net He is fostered in the Huntsville, AL area and could be available for transport but transport fees are on top of the adoption fee.

Story
Oliver is a young 3.5 year old mini Australian Shepherd, we’ve owned him since he was just about 2 months old. He’s been a great boy and learnt a lot, he’s a quick learner and needs lots of attention. We love him but unfortunately don’t have the time to care for him anymore due to the fact that we own another dog and have busy schedules. Oliver needs a spacious home and lots of grass to run around in. We prefer Oliver to be the only pet in the house because he needs a lot of time and gets jealous, although Oliver does love kids so that is also important for us. We have a children and Oliver gets along with them and plays so nicely. Our goal for Oliver is to join a family that can give him an amazing life and care for all his needs. Please only request if we meet all each others needs. And you don’t have to plan on getting any other pets. Thanks looking forward to hearing from you

Story
Meet Elysia! Elysia is a beautiful 1½-year-old female Mini Australian Shepherd, weighing in at 31 pounds, with a wonderful balance of playful energy and sweet affection. She’s the kind of dog who loves to explore the world with you and then happily curl up on the couch when it’s time to relax. True to her Aussie roots, Elysia is smart, curious, and very aware of her surroundings. She enjoys playtime, being silly, and showing off her fun personality, but she also loves giving kisses and settling in close to her people. She would thrive with a family who enjoys being active and spending time outdoors, whether that’s walks, adventures, or playtime together. On leash, Elysia does well overall and may tug a bit when she’s excited or interested in something new, something that will continue to improve with consistency and practice. She’s friendly and social when meeting other dogs and enjoys canine companionship. Elysia is mostly housetrained and will do best with a structured routine of regular walks and outings to help her continue building good habits. When it comes to cats, Elysia is still learning boundaries. Like many young herding breeds, she can be curious and may show interest or attempt playful chasing, so a home that can provide guidance, management, and slow introductions would be ideal. She may do well with a dog savvy cat. Elysia is a loving, fun, and engaging companion who would make a fantastic adventure buddy for the right home, especially one that appreciates the intelligence, curiosity, and heart that make Aussies so special. She is being fostered in Staten Island and her adoption fee is $475. "To adopt this animal, please visit https://www.louieslegacy.org/adopt All of our animals come spayed or neutered, up to date on age appropriate vaccinations, are microchipped, heartworm negative, current on flea/tick and heartworm prevention, dewormed, and treated for any ailments found upon veterinary examination. The adoption fee covers a portion of these services, and makes it possible for us to continue rescuing animals. For more information on the adoption fees and the adoption process, please complete our adoption application here: https://www.louieslegacy.org/adopt - an application allows us to get to know your family better so we can assess whether the animal you are interested in is a good match for your home. An application does not obligate you to adopt. Please understand that due to the volume of applications some animals receive, we are unable to contact all applicants. If your application is considered a good fit for the animal you are interested in, or even a different pet, a volunteer will give you a call as soon as possible. We are a foster based rescue and do not have a shelter location where animals can be seen during the week. Please see our Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/LouiesLegacy for our weekly adoption album if you are interested in meeting an animal in person. Not all animals attend every adoption event, please check our Facebook page for animal event times and locations before you make a trip to meet a specific animal."
