My story

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

German Shepherd/Cattle dog mix puppy, male

Meet Phoenix!

Phoenix, along with his siblings Raider (adopted) and Spirit were found with 5 other puppies under the floor of an abandoned building at the old George AFB in Victorville, Ca. A Good Samaritan found mom, and with help from a local trapper, saw a hole in the floor of the building, and crawled waaaay underground for quite some distance, got 'em! Momma is a German shepherd mix and was also rescued. Unbelievable, they are all are doing well. We'll be watching as they grow. The goal is to have them reserved by the time they are 8 weeks old- around the end of November. So watch and wait people. These three are already looking like little herders!

Phoenix weighs in at ~6 lbs. He was the first one of the puppies to bark. He is a good size, and always snuggling up to his brother.

The pups will go home with one vaccination on board, and required sterilization deposit of $300, fully refundable upon proof of spay or neuter. Surgery to be performed within14 days of designated date.

Phoenix and Spirit are being fostered in Apple Valley.

More about this rescue

Central Coast Herding Dog Rescue is a Rescue Alliance partner, a federally recognized 501(c)3 non profit organization dedicated to finding great dogs great homes. County of San Luis Obispo Animal Service Operating Permit #C2649

Central Coast Border Collie Rescue (CCHDRescue) is dedicated to helping find homes for Border Collie, Australian Shepherd, Australian Cattle Dog/Queensland Heeler, Australian Kelpie, and other herding breeds and mixes. This site lists dogs in shelters as well as dogs in homes and foster care, and is intended to help adopters seeking good dogs, and dogs seeking loving homes. 7

Why we do it: Herding dogs are not for every one. Too many adopters get these dogs as status symbols only to find out, their life style doesn't meet these high energy dogs needs. As a result, these wonderful misunderstood dogs wind up in shelters. We understand what drives these dogs, we can place them appropriately.
Our mission is to educate people and save dogs. We do it because we love these dogs, with a little effort, can give them a good new life. Euthanasia is not the solution to our animal overpopulation issue. Education is.
