Story
We got him when he was 8 weeks old, we were told he was a mini Australian Shepard.He is 6 years old. He is okay with kids and people and other dogs but can be anxious so he can be slow to warm up to strangers, overall he is very loving and cuddly and loves his crate. He needs a lot of stimulation and attention when he isn’t laying on the couch.

Story
Heartworm Preventative: 13th of every month Flea and Tick: 13th of every month Yoshi likes women best. Yoshi is very leary of men, he needs several introductions to new men in his life to know he can trust them. Most women he meets he makes up with after a short time, some he likes immediately. He was treated roughly by a small child and father. He will not be adopted out to a family with children as that would not be fair to the children or Yoshi. Active and likes to play. Very smart. Loves attention from those that he trusts. He gets along with all of us here at Orphans even the men, but he needed time to get to know you. NEEDS AN ADOPTER WITH AUSSIE EXPERIENCE AND FENCED IN YARD. Bite History: Prior history to coming to us. And bite history with us. PA 1137

Story
Meet Eleanor! Elanor was brought into the ICHS by no fault of her own. This sweet girl is a fan of being brushed! Eleanor also loves to play ball. Eleanor is very lively and full of spirit, she will enjoy long walks, runs, and play time, but she will also enjoy a good snuggle. So far She has not been a fan of any of the dogs at the shelter or a visiting dog. We are working with her; however, we do think she would be better as an only pet. Primary Color: Black Brown Secondary Color: White Age: 2yrs 0mths 3wks

PLEASE NOTE! WE ARE A TEXAS BASED RESCUE. THIS DOG IS CURRENTLY IN TEXAS AND WILL BE TRANSPORTED TO YOUR STATE ONCE ADOPTED. Our app can be found at haydudeequine.org Hi there! I’m Boone, and I’m looking for a family to call my own! 🤠🐶 My story started with a pretty heartbreaking chapter. My mama’s owner passed away, leaving her and all of us puppies behind. Thankfully, we’re getting our chance at a fresh start, and now I’m ready to find the family I’ve been waiting for. ❤️ First things first, I’m the BIGGEST puppy in the litter! I guess somebody had to take on the responsibility of being the gentle giant, and apparently, I drew the short straw. 😂 But don’t let my size fool you. I’m just a big ol’ softie with a heart to match! In fact, I’m such a lovable dork that taking my photos was practically impossible. The humans kept trying to get pictures of me, but I had a much better idea: getting them to pet me! Why would I pose for a camera when there are perfectly good hands available for belly rubs and ear scratches? Priorities, people! 🤷‍♂️😂 As for my breed, we’re thinking Catahoula x Australian Shepherd x Blue Heeler… but we have absolutely no idea who Dad was. He could’ve been any of the above, all of the above, or the neighborhood mailman’s dog for all we know! One thing’s for sure: with those possible genetics, I may come with some brains, energy, and personality mixed in with all this sweetness. I have a joyful spirit and a super sweet personality. I’m the kind of pup who makes you smile just by being around, whether I’m clumsily trying to get your attention, enthusiastically greeting you, or reminding you that petting me is always more important than whatever else you thought you needed to do. I have a feeling I’m going to be VERY good at keeping my future family entertained! Mama weighs around 55 pounds, and I’m expected to be about that size myself when I’m all grown up. So while I’m currently the big brother of the bunch, I’ll likely grow into a medium-sized dog with a whole lot of love to give. With my possible Catahoula, Aussie, and Heeler heritage, I’ll benefit from an active home that provides exercise, training, and mental stimulation. Walks, adventures, games, and learning new things will help me grow into the best boy I can be. And don't worry, I fully intend to schedule plenty of cuddle breaks into my busy calendar. 😉 If you’re looking for a gentle, goofy, ridiculously sweet best friend with a joyful spirit and a talent for making even the simplest moments more fun, I might just be your guy. I may be the biggest puppy in the litter, but my heart might be even bigger. ❤️ Apply to adopt me at haydudeequine.org. I can’t wait to find my people, soak up all the love, and become the very best part of somebody’s day! Love, Boone 🤠🐾

Story
WE ARE A TX-BASED RESCUE. THIS DOG IS CURRENTLY LOCATED IN TX AND WILL BE TRANSPORTED UPON ADOPTION. Please fill out an adoption application at haydudeequine.org Meet Cheyenne! Howdy, y’all! I’m Cheyenne, and I’m looking for my very own forever family! 🤠❤️ I’m a 4-month-old Australian Shepherd x Cattle Dog mix, which means I come with a whole lot of brains, a whole lot of personality, and enough adventurous spirit to keep life interesting! I’m also sporting a pretty special marking on my forehead… a big ol’ Y! I guess the universe wanted to make sure everyone knew to ask, “Y wouldn’t you adopt me?” 😂 I’m a super sweet, outgoing girl who thinks the world is one big adventure just waiting to happen. New places? Let’s go! New people? Let’s be friends! Water? OH, HECK YES! 💦 If there’s a puddle, pond, creek, or any other opportunity to get my paws wet, you can bet I’ll be investigating it. I’m basically a tiny explorer with a built-in water attraction system. Now, let’s talk brains. With Australian Shepherd and Cattle Dog in my family tree, I’m a pretty smart cookie. I love learning and figuring things out, so I’ll need a family who can keep my clever little mind busy. Training, puzzle toys, adventures, games, and plenty of opportunities to learn new things will help me grow into the best girl I can be. Fair warning: smart puppies can be a little TOO good at coming up with their own entertainment. If you don’t give me a job, I might just invent one. And I can’t promise that my ideas will always align with your interior decorating preferences! 😉😂 I’ll grow into a medium-sized dog, making me a great adventure buddy for someone who wants a fun, active companion. I’d love a family who enjoys getting outside, exploring, teaching me new things, and including me in everyday life. I’m still a puppy, so I’ll need all the usual things: patience, consistency, training, and lots of love as I learn how to be a well-mannered member of the family. But underneath all that energy and intelligence is one very sweet girl who wants to love her people with her whole heart. I’ve got the looks, the brains, the adventurous spirit, and a forehead marking that makes me pretty hard to forget. All I need now is YOU! So, if you’re looking for a smart, sweet, water-loving sidekick who’s always ready to say “Y not?” to a new adventure, I might just be your girl! 🌵💦❤️ Love, Cheyenne 🤠🐾

Story
PLEASE NOTE! WE ARE A TEXAS BASED RESCUE. THIS DOG IS CURRENTLY IN TEXAS AND WILL BE TRANSPORTED TO YOUR STATE ONCE ADOPTED. Our app can be found at haydudeequine.org Hi there! I’m Rio, and I’m looking for a safe place to land and a person who will show me just how wonderful life can be. ❤️🐾 My story is a little heartbreaking. My owner passed away, leaving me behind with my six puppies. Thankfully, some kind neighbors stepped up to care for us until Hay Dude Rescue could take us in. I’ve spent my time being a mama, looking out for my babies, and doing my best to survive. Now it’s finally MY turn to be taken care of. I’m about 2 years old and weigh around 55 pounds, which makes me a perfectly sized companion for someone looking for a medium-sized best friend. I’m a beautiful girl with a heart of gold, but I’ll be honest with you: I’m a little shy when meeting new people. I’ve spent time as a street dog, and when you’re trying to survive and protect six little puppies, you learn to be cautious about the world around you. I’m not an aggressive girl; I just need a little time to figure out that you’re one of the good ones. I do best when people let me approach at my own pace instead of expecting me to be best friends five seconds after meeting. Give me patience, kindness, and a little understanding, and you’ll start to see the real Rio emerge. ❤️ And let me tell you, once I get comfortable? I’m actually pretty funny! I have a silly side that comes out when I feel safe, and it’s such a joy to watch my personality blossom. I’ve been busy being a responsible mama for so long that I’m ready to discover what it’s like to just be a dog and enjoy life. No more worrying about raising six kids or keeping everyone in line. I’ve officially earned my retirement from motherhood! My dream home would be a calm, quieter household with people who understand that trust takes time. I could do well with respectful children who understand how to be gentle and give me space, but a home full of constant chaos, loud noises, and tiny humans acting like unsupervised hooligans probably isn’t my cup of tea. 😂 I just want a peaceful place where I can relax and learn that the world isn't such a scary place after all. Oh, and a bonus for my future family: I ride really well in the car! So once we’ve built that trust, I’ll be ready to accompany you on adventures, errands, or a good old-fashioned drive with the windows down. I know I may not be the dog who runs up to every stranger demanding attention, but please don't overlook me because I need a little extra time. There is a very sweet, funny, loving girl underneath that shy exterior, and I have so much love to give the person who earns my trust. I’ve been through a lot, and I’ve done a wonderful job taking care of my puppies. Now I’m hoping someone will take care of me. Could that someone be you? Apply to adopt me at haydudeequine.org. I’m ready for a softer chapter, a safe home, and a family who will love me for exactly who I am. ❤️ Love, Rio 🐾💕
