My story

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

Meet Rusty A Loving Mini Aussie Shepherd Looking for a New Home

Rusty is a 1.5-year-old mini Aussie Shepherd full of energy, love, and personality. He loves to play with chew toys, run around the yard, and cuddle up after a good walk. He’s the perfect mix of active and relaxed, always ready for adventure but equally happy to unwind by your side.

Due to changes in our family dynamics, Rusty has not been able to get the attention he deserves. I’m a single dad with two kids, and while they adore him, my current schedule and responsibilities leave Rusty spending too much time alone at home. Unfortunately, I’m unable to afford a dog walker or sitter right now, and I don’t want him to feel neglected or miss out on the companionship he craves.

I’m hoping to find Rusty a new family who can offer him the time, love, and attention he needs. He’s a sweet dog who deserves a home where he can thrive, be active, and receive the care and companionship he deserves.
