Story
Rocket has a heart of gold and a long history of having his heart broken by the humans who were supposed to be responsible for taking care of him. Rocket has never had stability and somehow, is still filled with optimism and love for people. Have you ever trained a dog before? Rocket would really benefit from someone who loves dogs and understands that this beautiful smart, canine just needs guidance. Rocket is a jumper who wants to give you big hugs and ideally would live with older (I.E. TALLER!) kids who can handle that until he’s trained. He loves the outdoors and would thrive in a home where he had a doggy door or a human around to let him outside to play. He’s unknown with cats but should get along with dogs who can handle (or enjoy!) his playful energy. Rocket deserves a happy ending and if you truly want to save a life, please give Rocket a chance! Fenced yard required. No apartments.

Story
I’m a 2-year-old Australian Shepherd/German Shepherd mix, and I’m full of energy, love, and personality! I’m playful, independent, super smart and always ready for an adventure. I might be a little jumpy (I just love hugs!), but once I know you’re a friend, I’m all about showing you how much I care. If you’re looking for a high-energy companion who will keep you on your toes, I’m the one for you! I’ve worked with a professional trainer, so I already know some basic commands like “sit,” “stay,” “place,” “lay down,” and “kennel.” I’m pretty smart, but I could use some help with my leash manners—sometimes I get a little excited and pull. Training me is a breeze though, especially since I love to please and I’m motivated to learn! One of my favorite things in the whole world is playing fetch. Seriously, I could do it ALL day! I also love bones, Kong toys, and chew toys. However, I should be supervised with rope toys because I tend to chew them if given the chance (but I LOVE a good game of tug-of-war!). I’m good with kids, but because I have a protective side, I’d do best in a home with kids 12 and older who can respect my space. I’m also good with other dogs most of the time, but if I feel like I need to be the protector, I might get a little territorial. I might be okay with a dog-savvy cat too since I lived with one at my trainer’s place for a while. I’ve been exposed to horses and sheep, and I didn’t chase them—so I can be trusted around farm animals! But because of my high energy, I’d thrive in a home with a big backyard and a tall fence to keep me safe while I run around and burn off all that energy! If you’re looking for a fun-loving, active, and protective companion who’s eager to learn and play, I’d love to meet you! Come say hi, and let’s see if we’re a perfect match!

Story
Raven is energetic, driven, and needs a person who can guide that energy & and drive in a productive direction. She is intelligent & once you have her trust & respect, she will work for you at whatever you train her and ask her to do. She has the drive of both the husky & the shepherd in her; teach her to do something well, she will do it for you for the rest of her life. She's a bit shy at first and likes to take her time warming up to new people & situations. But once she feels safe & trusts you, she's a sweet & affectionate companion. She will also protect you & your property from animals that shouldn't be there including strange dogs, cats, coyotes, porcupines, skunks, raccoons, & foxes. Oh, & she loves her routines and will be vocal about it if you aren't awake at the usual time to let her out to potty or to give her her breakfast or take her on a walk or have some playtime or to get to bed because she has a bedtime even if you don't. She's not typically a barker, but she will let you know when a stranger is approaching the property or if she sees anything "suspicious" outside. As long as she can watch out a window for when you come back after you've been gone for anywhere between 30 minutes and 8 hours, she will not whine or howl or destroy anything, but if you try to leave her shut in a room where she can't see you leave and then come back, she will start whining and digging at the bottom of the door and leave paint and woodchips everywhere. Raven already knows commands like “sit,” “stay,” “lay down,” and “kennel." She LOVES snow & winter so much! When Raven gets excited or wants something really bad, she'll snap her jaws together. This isn't aggression, it's never close to skin, & is just her expressing that there's something she wants or needs. Also, she's a very affectionate girl, but really isn't a cuddler & thinks a hug means you want to play. She has a distinct play growl/yell when she folds herself in half against your legs & loves it if you join in the noise with her & scratch her sides and tickle her nose with her tail. Belly rubs are her weakness. Pepperoni is her favorite treat as well as the occasional frozen carrot. Introductions to anyone new, dog or person, should be done slowly, so that she can take time to get to know them. The ways to gain her acceptance the quickest is by using either food (since she is very food motivated) or by using play as she's also quite play motivated. She is not a super independent dog. She will still go do her own thing, but only with her person nearby & usually within her line of sight. She might not always want to be involved in what you're doing, but she definitely wants to be where you are. She would do best in a home with older kids who understand she needs space, or with a single female owner, as she tends to bond closely with one person & can be a bit protective of them. She's definitely more comfortable around women than men. Most of the issues she has are related to her breeds, both of them being protective and rather territorial, but they are issues that can be worked on by someone who understands those behaviors & has worked with similar breeds before. Her former owner wants to make it clear that she wasn't surrendered because she was unwanted or because of breed-related behaviors, but because of her declining health that has prevented her from exercising & training her properly. She also wanted any future owner to know that if you can put in the time & energy to socialize her & to train her well, she'll be the best dog, companion, protector, partner, and friend you could ever ask for.
