Shae is a sweet young lass. She's a big more tentative around new things than her brother, Simon, but warms up quickly. She likes to sit on your lap.  Shae would like to be your new BFF She needs to learn puppy manners. Shae comes to us from a shelter in rural southwestern Virginia. Shae and her brother, Simon, as well as their father, were seized from their owner for neglect (starvation). An anonymous donor has become Shae's Guardian Angel, in memory of her wonderful Bosnian street dog, Chloe.

Story
To learn more about Bert, please get in touch with dogs@lostdogrescue.org. Meet Bert, your new snuggly adventure buddy! Bert is an energetic 3-year-old Australian Shepherd mix with the heart of a giant marshmallow. He’s a friendly, people-loving goofball who thinks life is best lived at full speed—unless it’s couch-snuggle time, in which case he melts into you like warm butter. He loves meeting new humans and bonds with his people quickly. This handsome guy is an adventurer at heart. He’s thoroughly enjoyed park strolls, backyard zoomies, fetch marathons, and sniffing every interesting smell within a 5-mile radius. He’s also impressively smart—he already knows “sit,” “heel,” “lie down,” and “come,” and will stop what he’s doing with just a clap (basically dog magic). Bert can get a bit overexcited around some dogs and when he spots squirrels or birds, so walks with him are never boring. Because of his abundant zest for life, a home with adults or older teens is ideal. Once he burns off his energy, he settles into a calm, easygoing companion who loves napping nearby and checking in for the occasional dose of affection. At his core, Bert is a sweet, affectionate, hilarious pup who wants a home where he can run, play, explore, and then flop dramatically onto you for love. Loyal, cuddly, and full of personality, he’ll bring tons of joy—and plenty of funny stories—to whoever adopts him. Come meet Bert today and get ready to fall in love with this fun-loving guy!
