Story
Meet Blue – a Sweet, Loyal Mini Australian Shepherd Looking for an Active Home 💙 Blue is a loving and attentive mini Australian Shepherd with a gentle heart and an energetic spirit. He’s wonderful with people and has grown up surrounded by family life. About Blue: • Very sweet, affectionate, and attentive • Gets along well with both men and women • Lived happily with another smaller dog for a long time and does well with most dogs • Grew up with multiple small children—pushing, pulling, and poking never fazed him; he tolerated it all patiently • Playful and energetic, especially when it comes to being outdoors • LOVES walks and can happily go on long ones • Does well in the car • Minimal to moderate barking—he’ll alert you to knocks or loud sounds, making him a great little alert dog, but is otherwise quiet Blue would truly thrive in a home that can give him daily walks and regular exercise, which his current family is unfortunately unable to provide.

Story
 Sweet 1 year old Amy is in the market for a new loving home and would prefer a more quiet laid back setting. She is 35 lbs of a perfect mix of australian shepherd (her dad) and boxer/pit mix (her mom). A single lady would be prefered as she's not quite sure of men yet, but we are sure could learn to love them too? She did spend the first 6 months of her life in a pen outside with her littermates, so we would love a new owner that can work with her on socializing. Once in a new home, she is loving and a loyal velcro pooch. Amy has completed a 6 week training course. No children please, as she was adopted and returned due to her being afraid of littles! If you would like to be considered to adopt Amy please fill out the application today. She is up to date on vaccines, spayed, microchipped, and a loving little girl. Her adoption fee is $300. To meet her you can do a non-obligatory application at www.pawsandprayers.org.  Any questions, email kreuger9367@yahoo.com      January 21, 2026, 1:13 pm

Australian Shepherd

Male, Adult
Cuyahoga Falls, OH
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details
Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
This handsome 5-year-old Australian Shepherd is the total package — smart, loyal, and full of love! Max knows basic commands, is fully housebroken, and enjoys toys, bones, and relaxing in his crate, though he prefers to be by your side. He walks well on a leash but may pull or react when he sees other dogs. He’s played nicely with dogs before, but slow introductions work best. Max loves being with his person, whether he’s fetching a ball, getting belly rubs, or resting his head in your lap. Like most Aussies, he’s alert, aware of his surroundings, and may try to herd small children or animals. He’ll thrive in a home familiar with herding breeds and able to guide his energy in a positive way. Max needs a yard to run in or someone who is reasonably active to help him stay happy and balanced through walks, play, and mental stimulation. Adoption is $300 which includes his neuter, age-appropriate vaccines, microchip and current monthly prevention. To fill out an application for this animal or a general application click HERE.All animals are up to date on age appropriate shots, microchipped and fixed. To meet one of our animals we require an approved application. You can fill one out at https://tobyscrittercoverescue.org/adoptionapp/ January 24, 2026, 10:17 am

Story
I have had Andy since he was a puppy. He has been a good dog. I am older now and am moving into an apartment that does not accept pets. My daughter still has a way to go until she finishes school or she would take him. This certainly is not easy. He was born on July 10 2021 so will be five in July. Beautiful tri-color. The best situation would be with an older adult if possible. He makes a great companion. Not sure about being around cats. I do not have any.

These pups are in Akron, Ohio too!
