Story
Ms Lulu is quite the character! She is happy and funny and Loves to run and run. When she stops, she stops! She took over the house and yard the first day protecting and keeping all threats away from the fence. She is a snuggler and will sit on the couch and sleep in the big person bed or an open crate. She does prowl and protect through the night. She is house trained and uses a doggy door. Lulu is okay with small dogs but maybe no dog under 20lbs until proper intros are made - otherwise male or female dogs are fine. No idea about cats. She is a cattle dog and seems as if she may have been trained to herd beyond what comes natural? She got out of the gate once and was fine with the goat and chickens. Cattle and horses would be safe. She is an active working dog who would love an active lifestyle if you can provide it. She loves the water too. She will herd children by nipping on their heels so maybe a bit older children who understand that's just what her breed does and won't cry. She does pretty well on a leash, rides in the car like a pro, loves puppies because she was a mom a time or two. Her tongue hangs out and her jaw is a bit off (maybe birth defect or an injury) but it does not affect her appetite! She is spayed, HW negative and up to date on shots. Lulu is a really sweet dog and wants a home of her own. please apply at www.krrtx.org/forms Please note Lulu is located in San Antonio, TX and is available for transport to your location through Your Tx Rescue Connection transport service. The fee includes adoption fee and transportation fee.

Story
Walle is a 3 1/2-year-old mini Aussie whose owner passed away. He's adorable, overflowing w/ energy, & loves running. Alongside his playful side, he enjoys relaxing & sleeping in bed, showing a sweet & cozy personality. His personality is lively, affectionate, & playful, making daily life fun and unpredictable. His loves playing w/ his balls & stuffed toys, especially when he shares the excitement w/ people. One of his unique traits is his love for cold weather; he eagerly jumps into any body of water he can find. Having been socialized w/ many other dogs & having briefly cohabitated w/ a cat, Walle is generally friendly & adaptable in various social situations. While he enjoys going for walks, he has a strong preference for the freedom of a backyard. However, he does exhibit some food aggression and possessiveness over his toys. We have been working w/trainers & his behavior stems from the many changes in his life. He needs a patient person who will continue to work w/ him.

Story
Kobe is a great dog and loves our family. We just do not have time for an Aussie due to kids sports and soon to be going away to college. His behavior is erratic and is a very nervous dog. He does not like some of our company but love on others. If he's comfortable with you he will show great love and care. Because our boys do not have the time to tend to him as he required he gets into trouble and digs under our fence to get to our neighbors dogs which he just plays with. He will need an owner that will take the time to train him properly and is able to give him a lot of time. He was born on a farm in Montana and then brought to our neck of the woods. He loves wrangling cows on adjacent farm We picked him up as a puppy but were finding out he requires much more time than we have. We love him dearly but its not fair to him with our schedules. Please consider Kobe if you meet these specifications. We are not in a rush to get rid of him and will want to make sure he goes to a good home.

Australian Shepherd/ Lab is the closest breed we can guess on her. Sorry we dont have good photos of sweet Sally. She was in foster in Texas since a puppy! She is totally trained with playing with a playgroup of dogs several times/day. Finally her turn at about 2 years to be adopted. ! House and potty trained!!! woof woof. Super affectionate sweet loving dog. She is a little shy at first, but opens up quickly. Has done great with other all other dogs even young puppies when done with proper introductions. She is with a rescue that is friends of Lufkin TX Kurth Memorial Animal Shelter friends. loving sweet sweet pup t is nearly impossible to say the breeds but her brother did have some Great Pyrenese in his DNA test. All of her siblings were adopted as puppies, its long been Sally's time to find her FOREVER home. https://shaynesrescue.com/adoption-application/ If interested we would have you speak with her rescuer. Many dogs are impossible to say the breeds but it is anyone's guess. As we know, mutts statistically speaking will live longer and have less vet bills!. All of our Lufkin Kurth Texas dogs were hand selected and are literally their favorites. Everyone who has adopted adores their dogs. She will totally win you over. , Please do apply!!! All our dogs are spay/neutered, current on DHPP and rabies shots, microchipped, tested hw negative, so all of that is done. Our adoptions include professional dog rescue transport to WA and health certificates (vet visit just prior to coming to WA). Any questions, please email us at shaynesrescue@gmail.com Best to include your phone number and good times to call too!
