Story
Meet Lulu! Lulu is a sweet 3–4 year old Australian Shepherd with beautiful brown and tan coloring. This gentle mama dog is still learning about life and how to trust people, but she is incredibly affectionate and will truly blossom in the right home. She’s calm and quiet by nature, with a low energy level and medium exercise needs. Lulu is food-motivated and responds well to positive training. She can be a bit timid and shy at first, and she’s protective/territorial, so she’ll do best with patient owners who can help her feel safe. A securely fenced yard (6-foot recommended) would be ideal. Lulu is good-natured and gets along well with large dogs and female dogs. Please note that she can be food-aggressive, so careful management around mealtime is important. If you’re looking for a loving, loyal girl who’s ready to bond deeply once she feels secure, Lulu could be the perfect addition to your family.

Story
Tyrcon is the sweetest mini Aussie this side of the Mississippi! Affectionate, calm/gentle, goofy, patient, playful, resilient, snuggly, and a little timid/shy. He would happily spend half the day licking his person and cuddling up for snuggles. He enjoys going outside to sniff and bask in the sunshine, is fully house-trained (no accidents after his first two days out of the shelter), eats and sleeps through the night in his crate, is respectful on leash with no pulling, and is very quiet—rarely barking, and only with short, soft barks when he does. Tyr absolutely loves puppies and is incredibly tolerant and patient of them crawling all over him. He also loves playing chase or tag with dogs his size. He may get nervous of big dogs and typically leaves the area so he can feel more comfortable. He is nervous of new people but chooses to quietly excuse himself and sleep in his crate when company is over; once they leave, he bounces back out ready to snuggle again. He does not chase chickens even when off-leash and does not notice a house rabbit. He is good for nail trims, finds baths a little scary, and is a quiet, allowing gentleman at the vet. Tyrcon enjoys the life of luxury and typically lounges in “his” recliner most of the day. Tyrcon is a fabulous dog—his adopter will be getting a true gem who just wants a peaceful home and lots of love.

Story
11-month-old Australian Shepherd/Heeler mix. He is a very smart, sweet, friendly, playful, and lovable dog. He loves being around people and has been great with kids and our cat.He knows sit, stay, leave it, and come, and he has a lot of potential to continue learning with consistent training. He is potty trained, neutered, up to date on shots, and current on worming and flea/tick medication.We are needing to rehome him because, as much as we love him, we cannot provide the freedom and care he needs. He has a strong herding instinct and chases our chickens and cows. We had hoped that a GPS collar would be the answer to his need for boundaries, but we have not been able to make it work reliably. We also aren’t home enough to give him the freedom, exercise, and attention we wish we could.We believe he would do best with a fenced yard or plenty of space to run and play, or with an active owner wh
