Good with dogs, Not good with cats, Needs special attention, Needs experienced adopter, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Bindi is a small Australian shepherd mix with megaesophagus. She loves to play with her brother and I think would do well with another dog if temperaments / personalities meshed well. Unfortunately she has a high prey drive and I have not been able to get her to coexist peacefully with my cats, which is the key reason I am looking into rehoming her. I cannot allow her into the same space with my cats; her impulse control seems to be much lower than her brother's. Although she is diagnosed with megaesophagus, her case so far has been pretty healthy. She takes one medicine twice a day before each of her two daily meals and sits in her Bailey chair for 30 mins during each mealtime to help her torso stay straight and allow the food to go straight down to her stomach. I am happy to discuss the details of her behavior and health. I would hope to find her a home that is a better fit than mine is, but I recognize taking her on would be a special commitment given her health condition.

Story
This is muffin. We rescued her in Nov. 2025. We believe she is 11 months. She is a very very active and lovable dog, but she needs more attention and unfortunately we cannot give her that due to schedules & pregnancy/PP. We have kids that she enjoys playing with. She has lots of energy so she can keep up! We also have an older dog she gets along with. I think she would really enjoy a younger play mate that will run around and play with her. She did a trial with a family that had cats, so I believe she can warm up to them. She is potty trained, crate trained and very food motived so she could learn lots of tricks. I can give vaccine records. I don’t know if she is fully up to date. She will also come with some toys, food bowl, leash, collar, etc. We hope to find her a happy home with active people or an active family!
