Story

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Nyssa is one of several dogs who were found on a ranch in the Texas Hill Country. We can only speculate, but we believe that the property owners sold their livestock, moved away, and left the dogs to fend for themselves. Nyssa's mom Lydia is VERY friendly, but Lydia's pups (two generations) were completely unsocialized, so we're guessing they may have been born after the people moved. Nyssa seems content whether living inside the house or in our horse barn. She has learned to use a dog door that is always open (no rubber flap), and if she can't get outside, she will use puppy pads inside the house. She definitely likes a good bed, whether that's a human bed or a plush dog bed. She has made progress walking on a leash, though she definitely still needs work on that and could benefit from some training sessions at home. It will take love, patience, and time to bring Nyssa out of her shell. But she is such a sweet dog that we know it will be worth the effort. If you are ready to make the commitment to devote yourself to earning Nyssa's trust, please go to www.bluebonnetrescue.org to complete our application.

Sasha

Anatolian Shepherd

Female, Adult

Whitewright, TX

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Good with dogs, Good with cats, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Sasha is mom to the Nutcracker Suite puppies. She is small for an Anatolian Shepherd, so would do best with a larger male partner if adopted as a working LGD. Our guess is that she was probably bred during her first heat cycle, which tends to cause the momma dog's growth to slow down or even stop completely, as her body puts all of its energies in to the development of puppies. Sasha will continue to fill in with a healthy diet, but she's not likely to get any taller, or any larger in terms of her frame. In their first home, Sasha was living with chickens, ducks, geese, a couple of goats, and a few assorted other animals so has had a wide variety of exposure to different animals. Plus of course dogs, and a couple of barn cats. At Windsong Ranch, Sasha is currently living in a pasture with Nigerian Dwarf goats and a few other livestock guardian dogs. She gets along with the other LGDs, both male and female. Sasha can climb our 5' tall pasture fence, and she goes over the fence every day to have supper with her pups, who live in an adjacent yard and are given supervised time in the pasture. Thankfully, she doesn't climb the fence to try to leave our property, but still, she has the capability, so very secure fencing will be required. Sasha is very sweet with people, but she was never taught how to walk on a leash, so we are trying to help her overcome her fear of/resistance to the leash. But we don't have enough time to devote to this effort, so we aren't yet making much progress. She will definitely need work to learn how to walk nicely on a leash. If you have a small homestead, or perhaps a backyard flock of chickens, Sasha might be exactly the dog you need. If so, please complete the application on our website.

SugarPlum

Anatolian Shepherd Komondor

Female, Young

Whitewright, TX

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Good with dogs, Good with cats,

Story

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.SugarPlum is one of the Nutcracker Suite puppies and is a solid whitish/biscuit color like her Komondor dad, but has a smooth coat like her mom Sasha, an Anatolian Shepherd. In their first home, these puppies were living with chickens, ducks, geese, a couple of goats, dogs, barn cats, and a few assorted other animals so they have had a great diversity of exposure. SugarPlum weighed 67 lbs at 7 months old. We're not sure of her current weight but based on her growth during her time with us, we think she could weigh 80-85 lbs at adulthood. Her mom is currently about 80 lbs and dad is over 100 lbs. SugarPlum is playful with other pups, but actually seems to prefer the company of an adult dog (Tyana) who looks very much like her. Maybe there's truth to the old saying "Birds of a feather flock together." SugarPlum settles nicely when she has the opportunity to get attention/petting from a human and she is quick to sit for a treat. We think SugarPlum would be great as a family pet or on a small homestead where she could be trusted around the livestock (with proper introductions and supervision) but would be primarily a pet and not a true LGD.

Blue

Anatolian Shepherd

Male, Adult

Whitewright, TX

Size

(when grown) X-Large 101 lbs (46 kg) or more

Details

Good with dogs, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Blue is a purebred Anatolian Shepherd who was surrendered to us as a 13 week old puppy. He had been purchased from a farm-based breeder who raises Nigerian Dwarf goats, but the family who purchased him soon realized they weren't cut out for managing a giant puppy who needed more obedience training than they were equipped to provide. We're grateful that they recognized the pup needed a different environment. We put him in the pasture with Rennie to supervise, and he did really well. Our Nigerian Dwarf goats probably made him feel right at home. Blue was adopted while he was still a puppy and spent a couple years living with sheep plus two other LGDs. He was an excellent perimeter guardian, but when in the smaller pen where the sheep spent most of their overnights, Blue would sometimes chew on the ears of the sheep. He had plenty of bones and toys, so it's hard to say why he developed this bad habit. It was disappointing that the other LGDs didn't intervene to tell him to STOP, and it didn't typically happen when the humans were home and could intervene. After trying everything they could think of to resolve the issue, they finally decided he needed to come back to us. We kept Blue in one of our barn kennels (each of which has a 32' long dog run attached) for about a month to let him adapt to this change. Our place was familiar, but it had been a long time since he was here. From the barn kennel/dog run, he could see, hear, and smell our goats and the other LGDs. He could get used to our routine. Then I started letting him out into a small "corral" type area for an hour or so. From there he graduated to being allowed time in the pasture, where once again, Rennie could mentor him and intervene any time he might be inclined to misbehave. But we haven't seen any bad behavior. He likes to check the perimeter and greet the other LGDs. He has tried engaging them in play, but none of the dogs currently working in Rennie's pasture are interested. Blue isn't a pest -- he will walk away if a dog doesn't want to play. He will occasionally try to get close enough to the goats to sniff them, but he seems to view the goats as just part of the landscape, not particularly interesting. During a recent Meet & Greet, Blue met some visitors and showed very good manners. I wouldn't suggest trying to turn him into a couch potato, but I do think he could be content as a combination pet/property guardian. I also think that in the right situation, he could be a good guardian for goats. The "right situation" would include a pasture that's at least one acre and securely fenced, plus one or more LGDs sharing the pasture with him. If Blue sounds like a good fit for your family, please submit your application here.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.October 28, 2024, 12:12 pm

Simon

Anatolian Shepherd

Male, Adult

Whitewright, TX

Size

(when grown) X-Large 101 lbs (46 kg) or more

Details

Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Simon is a stunning Anatolian Shepherd boy who was shot before landing in the shelter. Since buckshot/bullet fragments are not easily removed by surgery, we were hoping that he would be able to live with them as some of our other dogs do, but even after a few months, he was still limping, not putting weight on the leg that was most affected with a BIG bullet fragment plus other shrapnel. Since the leg was giving him so much pain and one fragment was buried in the bone and couldn't be removed, our veterinarian advised that amputation would be the best treatment. Simon has made a full recovery from the amputation and is getting around quite nicely on three legs. He has gotten along nicely with every dog we have paired him with -- puppies and seniors alike. Simon has nice manners in the house and walks pretty well on a leash, though he does better OFF-leash because he's still figuring out how to achieve the smoothest gait possible on three legs. When we pulled him from the shelter, we thought he was likely a working livestock guardian dog, so when he first came to Windsong Ranch, he lived in one of our barns with a small yard. He didn't bother our barn cats, so with proper introductions and supervision in the early days, we expect he could live with house cats. Of course, once we scheduled his amputation, we moved Simon to the house, and we don't have house cats, so he would definitely need a refresher course in cat manners. Simon is a real love SPONGE, just soaking up all the attention and affection you will give him. Apply today to adopt Simon!
