Story
Luna is a 5 year old Australian shepherd who we have had her whole life. I hate saying that she’s “not good with other dogs” because she can be- but she can also be reactive in higher stress situations and this has caused issues with her and our other dog on occasion. We have a new baby and live in a smaller home and we are just not meeting each other’s needs anymore. I’m looking to responsibly rehome Luna to someone who better suits her needs. I think she would be best in a home that doesn’t have other dogs. She is loyal and incredibly intelligent, she is high energy but in a productive way, if she’s inside she loves to lay in the sun near a door or window. If she’s outside she loves to play fetch and she’s very agile. Luna doesn’t have any health issues, but she does have a history of getting carsick in longer car rides.

My name is Jhar Jhar, Im and Australian Shepherd and Pocket Pitbull mix, I have become taller than my brothers and Sisters but I'm also more unique my eyes have a blu-ish Gray tint, I'm full of energy and walk with a unique stride. Show boatish, I'm very smart and dense at times I think my body isn't grown in my legs lol. I got my first round of shots when I was 4 weeks old.no one has ever chose me as there companion because of my size compared to the rest of the litter. My owner has went through a rough time losing his home to taxes, not only he but me and my brother and sis are also homeless. I promise if you pay attention to me, I will learn fast and protect my family with all my heart. Just someone to pay attention to me, is all I need to be happy.i have been with other dogs my whole life 7 months.my owner is running out of time as am I. I really need a new home. My bark is intimidating but I love to play and chase sticks, toys, for anything you throw. Pick Me Jhar!

Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Not good with dogs, Good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Leia is a 6 year old Blue Merle Australian shepherd who is a fierce bullet of jumping energy who is very friendly and loving with people, loves to chase cats (playfully), play with any kind of toy, and loves to chew hard on bones. She loves to tug with you but prefers to win. She is a jumper and very excitable and will sneak jumping kisses quicker than you are ready for. She follows me everywhere and has to know exactly what I'm doing at all times and is a very loyal and loving dog. She absolutely loves to run and chase anything. She is very eager to please and is well trained to alert you when she needs to go potty outside. She loves to be brushed. She will cuddle with you but isn't really a lap dog. She's more of the be near you all the time kind of dog but loves the pets and attention. She does get jealous for attention which leads into the important part about her - she is not great with other dogs. I moved in with my boyfriend and she is not getting along with his dogs.

Story
Meet Dillon Age: 2 years old Breed: Australian Shepherd – German Shepherd mix Health: Came to us underweight and anxious; now perfectly healthy Personality: Loves to play and run around the yard Compatibility: Gets along great with cats (lives with 6!) Enjoys running the yard with his dog friends Loves kids and humans of all ages Training: Potty trained Crate trained Fun Fact: Looks just like the dog Tom Brady paid $$$ to clone! Dillon is wondering why he hasn’t found his forever home yet—he’s perfect!   All of our dogs are spayed or neutered, up to date on age appropriate vaccinations, microchipped and if over 6 months of age, heartworm tested and on heartworm preventative in their foster home. We require an approved application to meet any of our dogs. We do not have a shelter location and will not arrange a meeting without an approved application. We strive to make sure the bios provided for our dogs are complete and accurate; we do understand that mistakes happen, however, so if you absolutely cannot find the answer to your question in the dog's bio, you can contact us for more information. We require a home visit for each dog we adopt out, so we adopt within a 2 hour radius of Dayton, OH. If you are outside of this radius, we encourage you to contact your local rescue or shelter.   November 18, 2025, 5:18 pm

Story
Rusty is a mini Australian Shepherd. He is up to date on shots and will be neutered prior to adoption. He is a fun little guy but can be bossy at times with other dogs, so if he has other furry siblings they would need to be a submissive dog. He is a very sweet loving boy who will be your new best friend very quickly.
