Mojo is a truly special dog—gentle, sweet, and incredibly kind-hearted. At 13 years old, he’s been a loyal and loving companion, always calm, well-mannered, and full of quiet affection. He has brought so much joy over the years and deserves a home where he can continue to feel cherished every single day. With our busy lives, we haven’t been able to give him the time and attention he truly deserves. As an Aussie, he thrives on regular walks, a bit of grooming, and, most of all, lots of love and companionship. Mojo would make a wonderful addition to just about any home—whether it’s a family, a couple, or someone simply looking for a devoted best friend. He has so much love left to give, and he’s ready to share it with someone who can give him the care and attention he deserves.

Born June 2 2021 Weight 55 lbs Carter is a bigger mini Australian Shepherd with a big personality and an even bigger heart. He has better recall than his brother and is incredibly friendly with people. He’s very food motivated and loves to play catch, run, and explore and especially at the beach, which is basically his happy place. Carter is vocal and expressive, so he’s not shy about sharing his opinions with the world. He’s playful, affectionate, and thrives with activity and engagement. Like Finn, he can be reactive toward other dogs, but with the right patience and structured introductions, he could likely learn to coexist with them. Carter would do best with someone active who enjoys outdoor adventures and doesn’t mind a chatty dog with lots of enthusiasm. They have always been considered our forever dogs, and this decision comes from wanting the very best possible future for them. Ideally they will go to the same home forever and ever
