Story
We purchased Mia 3 years ago as a puppy. We recently moved and she is not doing well with the change and is experiencing behavioral issues, anxiety and having lots of accidents in the house and in her crate. Our prior home had a large yard where she could run and burn off steam. We have a small yard and she doesn’t have much space to move around. She is an active breed; a mini Australian Shepherd, who would do better in a different environment. She gets along well with other pets and children.

Story
True sisters sugar and spice are AKC blue Merle Australian shepherds. Born in 2020 they’ve been with us ever since. I much prefer they leave us together. Both are incredibly smart girls. Still very active. Sugar does tend to have issues with other herding breed dogs but not her sister. She does tend to jump on you for attention and play as well. Spice is a bit more cautious on her own. They love and are used to kids. I really want them to stay together.

Story
 Sweet 1 1/2 year old Amy is in the market for a new loving home and would prefer a more quiet laid back setting. She is 38 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 she is a bit shy and awkward. 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! Amy can jump around a lot and play r (with people and other dogs) so she is not a good fit for seniors or people with small dogs. She is freat in her crste while you are at work. She rarely barks. Very playful. 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 $250. To meet her you can do a non-obligatory application at www.pawsandprayers.org.  Any questions, email krueger9367@yahoo.com      August 24, 2026, 2:14 pm

Story
Meet Honey!  Honey is a 3½-year-old sweetheart with the gentlest soul. She has come a long way, but she’s still learning that the world can be a safe place. Because of this, she is looking for a very patient and understanding adopter who will allow her to adjust at her own pace. Honey absolutely loves other dogs and would thrive in a home with a confident canine companion to help show her the ropes. She also gets along well with cats and is wonderful in her crate.   She is an extremely timid girl and will need several weeks—possibly longer—to fully decompress in a new home. New people can be very scary for her, and earning her trust takes time. Her future family should understand that she may not be comfortable being touched right away, and that’s okay. Giving her the space and patience she needs will help her build confidence and form an incredible bond when she’s ready.   Honey currently takes medication to help manage her anxiety, and she has been doing well with the extra support.   Because of her sensitive nature, she would do best in a quiet home without children. A securely fenced yard is also preferred, as it will provide her with a safe environment to explore and gain confidence.   Honey isn’t looking for a perfect home—she’s looking for the right one. If you’re the kind of person who understands that love isn’t always instant and are willing to let her blossom on her own timeline, you’ll be rewarded with one of the most loyal companions you could ever ask for.   Could you be the patient, compassionate person Honey has been waiting for?   Adoption fee $350 August 24, 2026, 9:12 pm
