Hi, I'm Bailey, a 4-year-old black and tan Australian Shepherd mix who's ready to find her forever home! 🐕 I'm already spayed and housetrained, so I'll settle right in with your family. I get along wonderfully with cats, and I have experience living with children, I prefer to be the only dog though — plus my adoption fee is free! I may be a bit shy at first, but with patience and kindness, I'll show you just how loyal and loving I can be. Come meet me today! 💕

Story
Hi I’m the boom man Boomer! I have two different colored eyes and the cutest nub for a tail! - I am such a happy guy and always have a smile on my face! - I always want to be where you are, whether you are doing chores, watching tv or cooking in the kitchen. I will always be right at your side. - I walk great on a leash. If I get nervous, I will lay down or walk in a circle. On my first night in foster, I came home and walked a mile like a pro. - I get along great with other dogs! I haven’t shown any signs of play yet though. - I have not been tested with cats or kids. My foster does not have any at her home. - I am very food motivated. I already know sit and I think lay down is in there somewhere. I’m so smart. - I am working on my potty manners. I like to mark, which reduced significantly after my first night in foster and will continue to improve once I’m neutered. For now, I rock a belly band inside. - I will settle in my crate after 20 minutes or so. It is admittedly not my favorite place. I don’t do anything destructive, but I will bark until I relax. I keep it nice and tidy and clean. My skills are getting better as I learn you will not leave me forever. Lyme + (not contagious) *I am Lyme positive. Treatment is typically 28 days of doxycycline (an inexpensive antibiotic). With this disease, a dog may always test positive even if treated. The adopter is responsible for treatment, including cost. Its always a good idea to plan to keep your dog on a joint supplement for life. You can still come adopt me or even join our foster program to help the humans learn all the awesome things about new dogs like me! Learn more on our website!

Meet Lily! Lily is a one year old German Shepherd-Siberian Husky mix. Lily is super playful and very food driven! She is potty trained, kennel trained, and knows how to sit! She is a very sweet girl and loves to be around people. She’s a very curious dog who loves to go on walks, swim and lay outside. Lily needs a home that has an outdoor space to roam around. She grew up with cats so she is very friendly and playful with them! Help lily find her new home!

Current Location: Union Bridge, MD Hi there! 🐕 I'm Wrangler, a 4-month-old Australian Shepherd pup with a striking blue-black coat and all the charm a young guy can pack into 15 pounds! I'm good with other dogs, so I'd love a home where I can have canine buddies to play and grow with. I'm not neutered yet, but I'm still very much a blank slate ready to learn and bond with my forever family. My adoption fee is $450 — come meet me and let's start an adventure together! 🐾
