Australian Shepherd

Story
Our Shakespeare puppies are cuddly, adorable, and full of energy. Their mom, Juliet, is a mini Australian shepherd mix and we’re waiting on DNA for the babies, but we know they are just perfect. The puppies will be ready to go to their forever homes in early May, but are available for pre-adoption now. They’re young, so we are still learning their personalities as they grow and some may have vision or hearing issues which we will be able to evaluate as they get older. They are all very snuggly and sweet and love to play. You can let us know if you are interested in a specific puppy, but please be aware that we will matchmake to make sure each puppy finds the best home. Because they are so young, the puppies will need families where someone is home much of the day. The puppies will not be adopted in pairs. They are being fostered in the St. Louis area. ##2344905##

Story
Meadow is a sweet and sensitive border collie mix. This adorable puppy is just starting to come out of her shell, following her person around and then heading out to explore just a little before racing right back. It’s so easy to fall in love with her gentle personality and smarts.  Meadow is just starting to discover and play with toys. She likes to shake them and chase balls. She’s so food motivated and brainy that she already learned sit, down, come, and twirls and is also learning to shake and roll over. She is good in the crate, doing well at potty training, and learning to walk on a leash. She is interested in other dogs and will follow them around. Another friendly, kind dog in the home would give her more confidence. Meadow loves to curl up on the couch for naps. Meadow would prefer a quiet and calm home that isn’t too overwhelming. Someone should be around most of the time. Extra points if there’s herding dog experience. She needs a physical, fenced yard so she can explore safely. This sweet girl is being fostered in the St. Louis area.  ##2353434##

Story
Nancy is a young Australian cattle dog who would just love to sit on your lap and be cuddled all day. She’s smart and full of personality with spurts of play time then lots of chill time.  Nancy is about 3 or 4 years old. She is completely house trained and is excellent in her crate. She’s good on a leash and knows several commands including “sit” and “kennel.” She is particularly motivated if treats are involved! Nancy loves other dogs but can get pretty rowdy when she plays. She would be great with a dog buddy as long as the dog is accepting, playful, and not easily offended by silly antics. One of Nancy’s favorite things is to talk to all her favorite toys. Nancy needs a home with a fenced-in yard and would prefer someone who has herding dog experience. No kids under 10 please. Nancy is being fostered in the St. Louis area. ##1270950##

Story
Thank you for your interest in one of our Grease puppies. These sweet and beautiful Australian shepherds are just under a year old. They have loads of puppy energy but also have an excellent “off” switch. All they care about is being with their person, no matter what they are doing. They haven’t spent much time indoors, but they are all already doing a great job with potty training and are working on house manners. Each of these pups is incredibly treat motivated, eager to please, and extremely athletic and agile. They would likely excel at agility or dog sports. They would excel in an active home where someone has herding dog experience. They need a physical fence that is 5’ or higher. The pups are being fostered in the St. Louis area. Danny is a very sweet boy who loves toys and playing. His favorite place to nap is on his person’s lap. He always wants to be near his humans and is slowly gaining confidence. He likes balls and is good with other dogs when he warms up to them.  ##2323743##
