Story
Meet Briley, a 3-year-old Australian Shepherd mix with a heart as big as her energy! This beautiful girl is the total package—smart, affectionate, and always ready for her next adventure. Briley is incredibly intelligent (no surprise there!) and thrives when she has something to do, whether it’s going for long walks, learning new tricks, or just being your shadow around the house. She’s the kind of dog who forms strong bonds with her people and loves being involved in whatever you’re doing. Briley would do best in an active home that can keep both her mind and body busy—she’s not one to sit on the sidelines for long! After a day of fun, though, she’s more than happy to settle in for some quality cuddle time.

Story
Mr. Waffles AKA Waffi:He was bought from a puppy mill in 2020 we know his parents were chocolate lab and australian shepherd, but not pure bred. He is fully house trained! doesn't have any accidents in the house. He does best with Pedigree Adult dog food. Tends to have tummy issues if given anything else. He was raised around so many little children in my family and they could jump on him and he would just give kisses! He is kind of a scaredy cat especially around men, but once he knows you he will love you. He loves attention and affirmations. He has some sort of stimulation issues.... He needs to stay busy till he gets too tired. lights, shadows, and noises can all rile him up so being around kids can sometimes not be so good. With his age he gets tired faster than when he was a puppy which has been nice. I usually let him have zoomies outside and he comes in to crash on the couch. I am traveling this summer/fall, no one wants to take care of him, so I am trying to find a nice family

Story
Please contact Marty (marty@pawsandprayers.org) for more information about this pet.  Baby Jason is best described as a super friendly easy going loving pup. He is always a hit at our adoption events and he enjoys loads of kisses and hugs the most! He's learning well about being on a leash, and is going to be smaller than his siblings. Probably 50lb range. Born on 12-15-25, he will be an amazing family dog for a loving family that will work on all the fun puppy training things! This entire litter of pups have the greatest demeanors, so don't delay. Get that adoption application filled out today! His daddy is an Australian Shepherd, weighing about 70lbs, and all we know about mama dog is that she has to be a super sweet dog because her babies are A-Maz-ING!!  He is neutered, up to date on vaccines, dewormer, flea/tick and heartworm prevention, microchipped and ready to go to his  new home.  Adoption fee is $350 and any questions can be directed to marty@pawsandprayers.org. The O Jays were a great Rhythm and Blues group from Canton Ohio. This litter is the O Jay litter with one girl and five boys, mostly Australian Shepherd.. The girl is Olivia for the "O" and the boys are Jacob, Jason, Joshua, Joseph and Justin for the "Jays". There was a Message in our Music to follow the Love Train since it was Time to Get Down and consider adopting a pup so you can Sing a Happy Song!  One of these pups would be a perfect companion and give you lots of love and have you Livin for the Weekend! They are very social.  May 31, 2026, 3:14 pm
