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!

Pittsboro, NC
Size
(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained,
Story
Sean is a 7-year-old male Mini Australian Shepherd with big “main character energy.” He absolutely loves people and thrives on attention and affection. His favorite thing in the world is being with his person, he’s very interactive, engaging, and truly just wants to be your best friend. He is house trained, crate trained, leash trained, and has had extensive training. He knows basic commands like sit, down, and heel, and has very extensive (and expensive) training. He does occasionally jump up for pets, bark, or pull a bit on leash — nothing out of the ordinary, just normal dog stuff. Sean does great with people (although he has lunged at strangers/unfamiliar children that run up to him) but he really would like to be the only dog and get lots of attention. He has nipped other dogs in the household, I believe this is a pack thing and he wants to maintain his popularity status. He doesn't have any issues at the dog park.

Duck

Australian Shepherd American Pit Bull Terrier

Male, Adult
Durham, NC
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Not good with kids, Not good with dogs, Good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Duck is a lovable whirlwind of a dog. His favorite people get more wiggles than his body can contain and he will literally never stop playing fetch. He also has a calm side: Duck will not complain if you have to skip a walk, and he is happy to lounge around during down time. He is loyal, and well-trained on and off leash. A fantastic walker and a dreamy hiking companion, he also responds quickly to commands like stay and place. Despite our best training efforts and management, Duck is not happy in a home with our two young children (3 and under). He has growled and snapped at them unprovoked, and seems overstimulated. Heartbreakingly, he needs a calmer home life with more attention and dog experience than we can provide. With a person/people that can give him focus and attention, Duck will thrive. Age: 5 yrs (January 2021 estimated birthday) Breed: Pit/Golden Retriever/Australian Shepard mix Color/Coat: Apricot, medium-long hair Weight: 50 lbs

Australian Shepherd Mutt

Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Lada is a sweet, affectionate mixed breed whose age while unknown is guessed by our veterinarian as about 1 year. She loves to cuddle and turn over so her belly is rubbed. She plays fetch. She is house-broken and crate-trained. She likes being in her crate in our bedroom at night. She’s wicked smart and the sky is the limit on what tricks she can learn. She is very healthy. She’s a good eater and is not fussy about food. Lada is up-to-date on all vaccinations and NextGard Plus chews. Lada is spayed and chipped. She is about 35 pounds. We will hand over all vet records. We adopted her in October. We do not know her history before then. The fact of the matter is that we are older and fear we cannot control her when we are on walks and she sees another dog. She has never attacked another dog, but she lunges and barks until the dog is out of sight. Lada is good with children and visitors to our house, including our grandchildren, who are toddlers.

Story
Penguin is a 60 lb 3 year old Australian shepherd/blue heeler mix (with a bit of border collie and collie). He was born 12/2/22 and rescued in Tennessee. I’m looking for a home with more space and stability for him. Hes been taking Prozac for 2 years to try to help with his anxiety/reactivity. He is a working breed and needs a lot of mental stimulation. He was raised around 5 other dogs and I would consider placing him in a home with another large dog if the dog is confident and not prone to tussling. I would prefer a home with experience with fear reactive/anxious dogs. No cats and no children please. He does have a prey drive and has gotten squirrels, birds, rabbits. He would come with all of his things and I am setting up an app w/Synergy for a behavioral assessment. Disclaimer: I am looking to rehome him because he attacked my senior small dog after living with her for 3 years. I have two other middle aged small dogs in my home that I had before him and cannot risk their safety.
