My story

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

In Winsted, CT
Hi my name is Roman! I’m about 6 months old and about 27 lbs! My mom is a purebred Australian shepherd but I never met my dad. I was rescued from a kill shelter in Texas and travelled to the Northeast to find my furever home.

I love to meet new dogs and play. I have yet to meet a dog I won’t play with. I also love people. I like to like faces and ears. I like kids too!

I’m pretty outgoing once I meet someone-occasionally I can be a little shy before I meet them but I don’t take long to be their new best friend! While I love to play, I do enjoy lounging on foster dad’s lap.

I’m still working on potty training; I need to be on a leash so I don’t forget why I’m outside- there’s so many distractions…

I’m also very smart and learn quick. I can even let myself back inside foster mom’s house when I hear kibble being put in bowls…
I also have a quirky nub tail- it wags up and down, I don’t know why.

I love toys but don’t like to share with just anyone. I can be very selective, we’re working on that. Would someone like to be my forever family? If so, here is the appliction:

There is an additional $20 microchip fee which includes registration and transfer to my new furever family, a REFUNDABLE $50 neuter deposit which will be refunded upon proof of neuter and $125 transport fee which is what we were charged for professional transport from Texas to Connecticut.

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 79,000 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.
