My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Courtesy Post: Owner Surrender/Rehoming- West Linn, OR

Rooster (Roo) is an 1 year old Australian Shepherd and weighs 70 lbs, but the vet said he needs to get down to 60 lbs. He is neutered, microchipped, up to date on shots, and on heartworm prevention. Rooster is hostile around strangers! He is good with cats and dogs! He hasn’t been tested around older children. No younger children, due to his reactivity! He jumped up and bit the owner’s son’s young friend on the face as he was walking into their house. This was unprovoked, Rooster just ran out the door and bit him. The owner is surrendering him because of this bite and they have also had a lot of unforeseen circumstances come up. He needs to find a new furever home as soon as possible!

If you think you can provide a great home for Rooster, please contact the owner listed below. There is a $150 rehoming fee to assure good folks with good intentions. This fee will be donated to Australian Shepherds Furever for their assistance in placing Rooster.

More about this rescue

Nancy Gonzalez, founder and CEO, created Australian Shepherds Furever (ASF), a non-profit organization to promote the educated adoption and rescue of the Australian Shepherd (Aussie) dog breed.

In July of 2012, ASF initiated as a Facebook page hoping to have 1,000 user "likes" by the end one year. The page quickly outgrew expectations, now with a network of nearly 82,000 individuals striving to provide aid and refuge to Aussies all over the country.

Using the Facebook page as a platform, the website www.australianshepherdsfurever.org was developed as an additional resource aimed at educating the public on this intelligent and beautiful breed. It provides resources for those seeking help, or those willing to contribute to the Adopt, Save, Foster (ASF) philosophy. Through this philosophy, ASF has saved the lives of countless dogs and helped to provide assistance to those that have nowhere else to turn.

We as humans have a responsibility to speak up and take action in favor of those beings that are less fortunate. Thanks to a team of passionate and proactive volunteers, Aussies nationwide are given a chance at a better life through Australian Shepherds Furever.
