Story
Hello everyone! Meet Jack! Jack is a 5 year old Minature Australian Shepherd who will be turning 6 on December 25th. He is black, white, and tan, and weighs around 50 lbs. He came into our lives through Project Puppy Love in Sugarcreek Ohio. Jack is smart, energetic, and an incredibly playful boy who loves to have a job and stay busy. His favorite thing in the world is playing frisbee, and he knows some pretty fun tricks! We trained him as a puppy and while Jack is smart, he can also be stubborn and sometimes likes to decide whether he wants to listen or not. He needs the right environment and an experienced person who understands his breed and behavioral needs. He has territorial behaviors and has a bite history, with all incidents occurring with people inside the home. Because of this, we are looking for someone who is knowledgeable and confident with dogs who have behavioral challenges and who can provide the structure, boundaries, training, and patience Jack needs.

Hello, I'm desperately trying to rehome an Australian Shepard due to a change of circumstance with his owners. To my knowledge, he isn't up to date on vaccines and I'm not sure what he's had. He's 3 years old and loves my kids and neighborhood kids. He's not neutered. He's crate trained and house broken. He doesn't chew on things other than his toys and shows no food aggression. He's a good dog overall. He would do best in a home without other animals. Please help us. We've exhausted all options and resources that have been sent. (xxx) xxx-xxxx thank you.

Story
August (Auggie) is almost 2 years old. He is energetic, loves to go on walks, and will follow you all over. I need to put him up for adoption because I’m a college student who doesn't have the funds or abilities to care for him properly, as much as that hurts to say. When he was younger, Auggie received a bad response from a family member of mine, and ever since then, Auggie hasn't trusted new people in the home the most. He is fine with new people, but he is a bit of a scaredy cat. He needs a home where he can love 1-2 people, who know how to show him love. He loves treats and is insanely smart. He loves flipping over for belly rubs, too. He doesn't trust kids very much, so please think carefully if you have kids or kids visiting often. He LOVES cats, and is pretty okay with other dogs. I wish I could keep him, because he is really a sweet boy if he trusts you. Thanks for checking out my boy, Auggie.

These pups are in Kettering, Ohio too!

Story
We are looking for a responsible, experienced home for our 4.5-year-old male Australian Shepherd/Poodle mix.He is kind, loving, affectionate, and happiest with his people. He loves tennis balls, walks, belly rubs, swimming, playing in water, and car rides. His giant smile makes it easy to see when he’s happy, and he has brought our family so much joy.This is an incredibly difficult decision. Because he has bitten a child on two occasions, he must be placed in a home with no young children and no regular young child visitors. His bite history must be taken seriously, and interactions with people and animals should be carefully managed. We believe he would do best as the only pet, although he has done well at doggy daycare.He needs a patient, responsible adopter, ideally with experience managing dogs with bite behavior. He is fully vaccinated, current on flea/tick/heartworm prevention, and microchipped. We hope to find him a loving home where he can thrive.
