My story

Maple is a 3.5 year old Australian shepherd/cattle dog mix who loves to hike and play tug of war and fetch with a ball or frisbee. Maple is a great backpacking and hiking companion and is great on the leash. Maple enjoys and is great in the car on both long and short trips.

Maple has a lot of energy and benefits from daily vigorous walks or hikes. She is 45lbs and in great health, having had no previous health concerns or issues. Maple was housebroken very early and is great in the house, even when alone. She does not have accidents and she does not tear up furniture, home goods, or the trash when alone (she seems to like and benefit from the quiet time!) Maple is a reactive and anxious dog, and would definitely require your time and patience to
Rescue

3.

Additional adoption info

We have a written application followed by a phone interview. If the applicant is approved past this point then we check 2 personal references as well as their vet reference. If they rent we speak with their landlord as well. If all is well at this point then we do a home check. The final step is a meet and greet where the adopter and the household, including dogs travel to meet the new adoptive dog. If all goes well they can adopt. There is an adoption contract and the adoption fee ranges between $200-400 depending on the fees that we put into the particular dog.

Go meet their pets

We support local "ma & pa" business before the big box chains since many of us come from some communities. We also attended fairs and "meet & greet" events.
