Story
Looking for a BETTER place for our 6-Year-Old Black Tri-color Australian Shepherd. He is a very smart and cuddly dog who loves to play fetch. We are heartbroken to even consider rehoming him, but his reactivity has turned into aggression because he is in the wrong environment (trucks, bikes, kids, strollers..) We went to many trainers and a certified behavior specialist who strongly advised against keeping him because he can’t be trusted around children. If there is anyone in a remote area without children, male dogs or cats please reach out.

Or, how about these Australian Shepherds in cities near Cornelius, North Carolina

Story
Courtesy Post: Owner Surrender/Rehoming- Lenoir, NC Meet Ranger! He is an 1 year old Australian Shepherd and weighs around 40 lbs. He isn’t neutered, up to date on shots, or on heartworm prevention. Ranger is nervous around strangers! He is good with cats and dogs! No children, due to his reactivity! He is housebroken and crate-trained. Ranger nipped the owner’s autistic son who was creeping up on him. Ranger doesn’t like slow movements. He is currently living with the owner’s mother. The owner is surrendering him because he has anger issues and food aggression. He also doesn’t do well with kids or men. He needs to find a new furever home as soon as possible! If you think you can provide a great home for Ranger, please contact the owner listed below. There is a $150 rehoming fee to assure good folks with good intentions. This fee will be donated to Australian Shepherds Furever for their assistance in placing Ranger. Owner’s Contact Information: Whitney at whitneylee00@gmail.com.

Story
COURTESY POST/OWNER SURRENDER Meet Remy! He is an 1 year old AKC registered Australian Shepherd and weighs around 35 lbs. He is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on shots, but isn't on heartworm prevention. Remy hasn't been tested around older children or cats. No younger children, due to his reactivity! He is hostile around dogs outside of his home. He currently lives with a Yorkie, who he loves to play with. He is housebroken and crate-trained. Remy is sweet, energetic, very playful and loves attention. He loves car rides, walks, and is extremely treat motivated! The owner is surrendering him because they are unable to control his reactivity towards dogs, strangers, and children, especially when on a leash. He does enjoy pets from strangers on his own terms. Remy has bouts of food and barrier aggression, which worries his owners with their newborn baby. They have worked with a trainer to mitigate these concerns, but he hasn't shown improvement in time for the baby. If you think you can provide a great home for Remy, please contact the owner listed below. There is a $150 rehoming fee to assure good folks with good intentions. This fee will be donated to Australian Shepherds Furever for their assistance in placing Remy. Owner's Contact Information: Patricia redrockshark@gmail.com

Story
Dash is a sweet 1 1/2 year old boy rescued from a shelter. He is a cuddle bug that loves to receive and give affection. He is house trained and knows basic commands like sit, down, and leave. We would love to keep him, however he does not get along well with our other dog. He would do best in a home without other dogs. We are unsure of how he would do with small children. Dash tested heartworm positive and is currently on medication. He will need additional veterinary care for this very treatable condition. He is has a huge heart and is wonderful with humans, he just needs the right pet-free loving home where he can thrive and give LOTS of cuddles. Please contact if interested!
