Story
Approximately 7 month old Pluto is a sweet and intelligent boy in need of a loving home. No bad behaviors, just typical high energy border/aussie traits. We have small children with disabilities in the home with complex needs and regrettably no longer have the bandwidth to provide Pluto with the special attention and focus he deserves.. we’ve worked tirelessly to shape our home around him since he was just a few weeks old, so this is a decision we don’t take lightly. He truly is the biggest sweetheart and if we could keep him we would. ❤️‍🩹 He has been socialized at doggy daycare, dog parks, and professionally groomed a few times. We’ve potty trained and taught simple tricks like sit, and handshake. He loves puzzles, fetch, and chasing squirrels. Very relaxed around children.

Story
Meet Gus, a charming 5-year-old who's ready to find his forever home! Gus is a sweet and affectionate boy, though he navigates the world a little differently – he's partially blind and mostly deaf. Don't let that fool you, though; he's full of life and love! Gus thrives when he has a "job" to do! This smart boy absolutely loves to herd balls and enthusiastically chases after his canine foster siblings. He's incredibly friendly with new people, quickly making friends wherever he goes. Gus is also a pro at home life, being fully house and crate trained. He's met children, cats, and other dogs and gets along well with everyone. We're looking for a special family for Gus – one with experience with herding breeds who understands their unique energy and drive. While Gus is generally a calm companion, he does need understanding and training to help him manage his excitement and reactions to external stimuli, especially when there's a barrier like a fence. Gus will need a home with suitable space to run, whether it's a securely fenced yard or room for long-line training until his recall is solid. His ideal family will appreciate his need for mental and physical engagement, helping him live his happiest, most fulfilled life. If you have the herding breed experience, the understanding for a dog with special sensory needs, and the space for this wonderful boy to thrive, Gus can't wait to meet you! He's a truly nice dog who adores his humans and canine friends alike. Gus' adoption fee is $400 plus MN tax which covers his neuter, vaccinations, microchip and any additional medical care he may have needed while in the rescue’s care. We are a foster based rescue, we do not house dogs at a facility. Age and breed are NLR's best guess as we often don't know who or what mom and dad are. If you are interested in adopting, please fill out an application on our website. www.northernlakesrescue.org

He's a clever fellow who has figured out how to open a handle door, so locks may be needed! When he's ready for a meal, he'll give you a polite reminder by going to his bowls.

Dog Interactions: He is leash reactive and will need consistent, positive training to manage this. However, when introduced correctly, he can play well with other dogs.
