Story

Can be around other dogs in play areas just not in a home togther. Due to ongoing compatibility issues between him and my fiancee, they are unable to comfortably live together. He is reactive and defensive due to anxiety but is not aggressive. He has never bitten or attempted to bite anyone. When scared, he may cower, bark, or growl as a warning response. He previously lived on a farm and was rehomed when his former owners moved overseas. I believe these transitions have contributed to his anxiety. He is a gentle dog, very well trained, and originally rescued from a puppy mill. I am his third owner and have had him the longest. He is healthy, fully vetted, and up to date on all vaccinations, with paperwork available. I am willing to transport him and help financially with his care. This is not a decision made lightly; I am not looking to dump him, but to find a patient, understanding home that can meet his needs. He is great on walks and car rides, and is on anxiety meds. roughly 8.

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Stella is a friendly and intelligent dog with plenty of energy. We want her to be happy and have a space where she can run around and play with other dogs. Previously, Stella lived in the mountains of Colorado, where she enjoyed a large fenced yard and had lots of friends to play with. Now, she is living in a townhouse without a yard, which has been challenging for her. As a very active young lady, she is currently feeling unhappy. Stella is a mix of Australian Cattle Dog, Husky, German Shepherd, and Golden Retriever, and she is expected to weigh around 30 pounds. She is a loving and eager-to-learn dog who picks up new skills quickly. Stella would be an amazing agility dog, as this would engage both her mind and her need for physical activity. If agility training isn't your interest, she would also thrive in an active lifestyle with an avid walker, hiker, or runner. Stella is a very quick learner and was immediately fully potty trained. To ensure the best for Stella, her new owners should have a yard or live on a farm, and it would be great if they have another dog and children. Stella has plenty of energy to add playing at home to her list of activities. Stella has been spayed and is current on all her shots until May 2026. To be considered for her forever family and to request an application please contact Vivienne at vivienneajames@gmail.com. APPROVED APPLICATION AND ADOPTION FEE REQUIRED. (Stella is currently in Tennessee and can be transported north upon adoption.) July 30, 2025, 9:47 pm

ZARA THE MAGNIFICENT

Australian Shepherd Poodle (Standard)

Female, Adult

Norfolk, VA

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Not good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Hi, my name is Zara! I am a beautiful gray and white 3-year-old Australian Shepherd Poodle mix. While ladies typically don’t disclose their weight, I am about 50 lbs. If you are a smart and active person or couple looking to adopt a dog with a similar temperament, then we could be a great match! I love going for walks and would appreciate having someone who can incorporate that into my daily routine. Getting outside for exercise is something I enjoy, and I would also make an excellent running companion. Visiting the park or going on hikes would be a lot of fun, too! Not to brag, but I believe I'm quite a looker, and I’m confident that if you took me to the park, we would make lots of friends together. While I love people, I am not used to being around other dogs, so a dog park wouldn’t be suitable for me. However, I’m always up for hanging out where the people are! I’m also a bit too energetic for young children; I sometimes forget that I'm bigger than they are and might accidentally knock them over. It would be wonderful if someone in the household could work from home, as I am crate-trained but don't like spending long hours alone. I thrive on human interaction and am seeking a loving home. I promise to return your love! If you would like to be considered for my forever family, please contact Vivienne at vivienneajames@gmail.com. Please note that an approved application and adoption fee are required. (I am currently in Tennessee but can be transported north upon adoption.) July 30, 2025, 9:47 pm

Story

Lilly is a beautiful, young female Australian Shepherd. She is a black tri with gorgeous blue eyes. She is about 3years old and weighs 40 pounds. Lilly had a litter of adorable pups, but she has recently been spayed. Lilly's personality has quickly emerged the last couple weeks,and she is very energetic and playful. She has mastered the art of both chasing a ball AND returning it! She even conveniently drops it close by (to speed up the time until you fling it away again!) Lilly has shown no interest in chewing or gnawing on family belongings or furniture, but she loves to curl up on the floor or on a cushion right by your feet. Lilly eats well, sleeps well, and is an amazingly fast learner. She is coming along great with learning sit and shake and has made good progress in leash-walking. She is reactive on leash and will need continued training to overcome this. Lilly enjoys being with people and is eager to accompany you anywhere. She goes in a crate nicely with a treat and has been well-behaved when staying overnight in a crate.Lilly loves to be close to you, but she is also good about laying quietly nearby and giving space when you are occupied. NEEDS TO BE THE ONLY DOG -->>> Lilly has a more dominant, alpha female personality, and she would do best as the only dog in the family. Most of all, she is thrilled to be outdoors and would be phenomenal at any dog sport from agility to frisbee to flyball--she has the zip, speed, and enthusiasm to conquer any activity that you want to enjoy with her! Lilly was kept as a backyard breeding dog and as such will need continued training on leash, basic commands, controlling impulses and socialization. She absolutely LOVES LOVES LOVES people and is happiest spending her time with her foster humans! Spend some time with Lilly, and her bright and fun-loving nature will win your heart! Lilly is being fostered in Richmond, VA. If you think Lilly is the girl for you, please submit our adoption application at the link below! https://www.australianshepherdsfurever.org/adoption... There is one additional fees: $20 microchip transfer fee to register and transfer her to her new furever family

Story

Hello, I’m Tatum! I’m a 1 ½ year old Australian Shepherd with a personality as big as my heart…and appetite. I’m on the smaller side of standard around 40lbs. When I am not busy running at mach 1 speed, I’m busy winning over your heart with my soulful eyes and a tail that wags more than a windshield wiper in the rain. I am a typical velcro dog so expect me to always be by your side. I absolutely love belly rubs and come with a set of commands that I already know, such as sit, paw and lie down, which always winds up with me demanding belly rubs. Did I mention that I love long walks anywhere and riding with you in the car? Like Hootie said, “I only wanna be with you!” While I must admit that I look quite stunning, do not let this cute face fool you. I need daily stimulation from my human, no matter the weather or time of day. It takes A LOT to wear me out, so a fenced yard is a must. I would love to work on a farm or get involved in dog sports like agility, flyball or dock diving. I prefer women, as men can be scary sometimes, which may elicit me to bark and growl at them, especially if they are standing. I have not shown any aggression toward men, I am just afraid. Any man in my life will need to commit to working with me and possibly seeking a trainer. I was adopted but returned when I began to guard my female adopter from my male adopter. I also prefer female dogs better but need slow and controlled introductions to any dogs. I like friends to play with but need to make sure that our personalities fit well together, so a meet and greet with all family members (human and dog) would be best! Finally, I do have some separation anxiety and can be frightened by loud noises and when I must go to the vet. I will need continued training to be the best boy that I can be. If given the opportunity, resources and a little bit of patience, I can be a very good boy and your best friend! I hope to soon find my furever home where I can be your constant companion. I have so much love to give! I am being fostered in Richmond, VA, but really need a new foster or adopter. (My current foster had to move into a smaller home & yard and 4 dogs is just too much.) Here is the application: australianshepherdsfurever.org/adoption-application There is an additional $20 microchip fee which includes registration and transfer to his new furever family.
