Story
Carti is a beautiful 4-year-old Australian Shepherd, weighing about 75 lbs, with a lively and energetic personality. He has been part of our family since he was a puppy with my son. When my son relocated and couldn't take him along, Carti came to live with me on February 16, 2026. He is neutered, fully up to date on his vaccinations, and in excellent health. Like many Australian Shepherds, Carti is intelligent, active, and deeply loyal. He can also experience some anxiety and is naturally protective of his family, which makes him especially devoted to the people he trusts. With recent changes in our household and a busier schedule, I'm concerned that Carti isn't getting the level of activity, engagement, and consistency he truly needs to thrive. He loves to run, play, and be mentally stimulated, and he would do best in a home that can provide plenty of exercise and attention. Carti is a loving dog, and we are continuing to work on his training as he adjusts to new dynamics in the home

Story
Fluffy is a 9-year-old male Australian Shepherd mix looking for a loving new home. He’s a sweet, low energy dog who absolutely loves cuddling and will happily climb into your lap for belly rubs. He enjoys being outdoors and relaxing with his people. Fluffy knows a few commands like sit, lay down, and paw, and he’s very food motivated. He would do best in a home with a fenced yard or where he can be kept on a leash, as he sometimes likes to take off and turn it into a game of chase. He’s great with kids but cannot live with cats or other small animals, and he can be a bit territorial around food and treats. This is a very difficult decision due to a divorce and a long-distance move. My goal is simply to find Fluffy a safe, loving home where he can continue to be the cuddly companion he is.

ROCKY

Australian Shepherd

Male, 6 yrs 4 mos
Burlington, NC
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Meet Rocky, a laid-back, big-hearted guy who`s looking for the perfect companion. Rocky thrives in a calm, quiet home, ideally with an individual or couple who can offer him the peace he craves. While he`s tolerant of kids, he prefers to snuggle only with his bonded person. True to his cattle dog nature, Rocky is protective of his territory and takes his time warming up to newcomers. But with a few tasty treats, he’s quick to make new friends! Out in public, like at Lowes or the park, he’s friendly and allows people to pet him.He’s an easy-going guy who enjoys nice walks or short hikes and does well on a leash. However, he’s not a fan of other dogs and would prefer to be the only pup in the home. Rocky is food-driven, so with patience and training, he can overcome his dog-on-dog challenges.Rocky is fully house-trained, and he’ll always let you know when it`s time to go potty. He can be left home alone for long periods and is perfectly well-behaved—no chewing, no accidents. He’s also pretty good at following basic commands: sit, down, stay, and come. He doesn’t jump up on guests or try to dash out the door when it opens.While he can tolerate cats, small animals like squirrels aren’t his thing, and he won’t chase them. He enjoys playing tug-of-war and carrying around his stuffies (though he doesn’t chew them up!). Rocky also loves to bury bones and toys that he’s particularly fond of.He has a sensitivity to certain ingredients like corn, wheat, and soy, so he requires allergy-friendly food. He’s also afraid of thunderstorms, so a little extra care during storms will go a long way.Though Rocky hasn’t been crate trained, he seems to like the idea of having his own space. With his thick fur, he does require regular brushing, but professional grooming isn’t necessary. He`s not a fan of water or swimming, but he doesn’t bark excessively—just enough to alert when something’s up.If you’re ready for a loyal companion who thrives on a peaceful, loving environment, Rocky could be your guy!

Australian Shepherd Poodle (Miniature)

Raleigh, NC
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Grover is the kind of dog who quietly steals your heart. Beneath his timid exterior is an incredibly affectionate, loving companion who simply needs a little time to realize he's safe. New people can be a little overwhelming for Grover, especially men while they're standing, and it may take him a few minutes to warm up. But once he does, you'll discover a sweet boy who absolutely loves treats, pets, walks, and being held. One of his favorite places in the world is curled up in your lap on the couch, enjoying a cozy nap with his favorite person. Grover also has a wonderfully playful side. He gets the zoomies on a regular basis and loves racing around the yard with another dog. A playful canine companion would be a fantastic match for him, giving him both confidence and a buddy to burn off his happy energy. Grover is looking for a patient, understanding family who will let him settle in at his own pace. The reward is a deeply loyal, affectionate best friend who will happily shower you with love, snuggle in your lap, and remind you every day that the best things in life are worth waiting for.
