Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Online Adoption Application › Meet Rae - Your Next Adventure Buddy!  Rae is a sweet cuddly 5-year-old Aussie mix.  She was found abandoned in a church parking lot. A family at the church took her in but quickly realized she needs a home with a companion dog. However, they will continue to foster her and our rescue will connect you to them if you are interested in adopting Rae. She is house-trained, knows basic commands, walks well on a leash, and has excellent recall. Rae is energetic, sometimes vocal, and thrives in a home with another confident dog to help her buidl leadership and trust. While she is fine with children, her herding instincts make her best suited for a home without small kids. If you're looking for a loyal, active companion with a heart full of love, Rae is waiting to meet you! Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.January 6, 2026, 11:42 am

Eryn is a mix between a Blue Heeler & a German Shepherd. She needs to be rehomed because I cannot afford to keep financially due to other obligations. She weighs 40 lbs & is 10 months old. The most attractive thing about her is her two different color eyes, she has blue and brown. She has no medical issues. She has no behavioral issues. She has never bitten anyone because I have her trained. Eryn is very smart and she loves to play. I have all of her shot records with me
