Story
Courtesy Post: Owner Surrender/Rehoming- Waynesville, NC *This dog doesn’t belong to ASF and hasn’t been evaluated by ASF.* Meet Oliver Hamish! He is an 5 year old Australian Shepherd and weighs 55 lbs. He is neutered, up to date on shots, and on heartworm prevention. Oliver Hamish is good with older children! No younger children, because they make him nervous. He is good with the other dogs inside of the home, but is nervous around dogs outside of the home. He has bitten 3 times when someone was around his food. He has food aggression. The owner is surrendering him because of the bite incidents. They are also unable to provide the time and attention that he needs. He needs to go ASAP! If you think you can provide a great home for Oliver Hamish, 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 Oliver Hamish.

Story
We originally bought Leo with his sister Camilla around 3 years ago when they were just tiny puppies. Leo is around 3 years old and is sweet and kind with other dogs. He is a very energetic boy, he absolutely loves to just RUN. Unfortunately, We are having to move due to our current housing situation becoming unlivable. We are looking for someone who preferably has a lot of space for him to run. Maybe someone with a farm, or even and huge fenced in acre where he can be free. He’s not aggressive with any type of other animals. Well behaved and listens real well. We don’t want to rehome him as he has been with us a long time, but we feel as though he deserves more and unfortunately at the moment we can’t give him that. Please only serious inquiries only. P.s he’s a really good hugger and will a family really happy

Story
I adopted Oliver from a breeder in Georgia in 2020. His papers say he is a mini Aussie. However, he is a 55 pound bundle of energy. Oliver enjoys sitting in my lap while I have my morning coffee, and is a great companion for snuggling up and watching movies. He loves to play fetch and tug-of-war, and take long walks. He loves to play with other dogs, as well. Due to an injury and and unpredictable work schedule, I cannot ensure Oliver gets the exercise he needs. He loves visiting the farm I grew up on in Kentucky, where he gets to run all day. My yard is not big enough for him to do this, and with my physical limitations, I cannot with any regularity, take him on long walks every day. Oliver would thrive in a home that has a large yard or on a farm. He is somewhat food, aggressive, and would do best in a home where there are not small children. Oliver has been my constant companion for 5 years, and I love him dearly. The decision to rehome him is heartbreaking, but necessary.

Story
Cowboy is a smart, active, and loyal 4-year-old Australian Shepherd looking for his perfect home. He loves fetch, walks, and would thrive with an active owner and a big fenced yard. It breaks my heart to rehome him, but Cowboy isn’t a fit for a home with young children. He has shown discomfort around kids and has a history of nipping, so he’ll do best in an adults-only household or with older, respectful teens. Cowboy prefers to meet new people and dogs on his own terms—he’s not instantly friendly if approached directly, but once he warms up he’s loving and playful. Cowboy is due for his yearly vaccinations but is otherwise healthy and ready for his next adventure. With the right home, he’ll give back loyalty, fun, and plenty of love.
