Listen up, folks! It`s time to meet the one and only Tj, the black and white charmer of the Australian Shepherd mix world!

And let`s not forget about his love for treats - this pup will do just about anything for a tasty snack. Just be prepared for some serious puppy dog eyes and a tail wag that could power a wind turbine.But Tj`s charisma doesn`t stop there. He`s a social butterfly who adores the company of other dogs.

He`s the life of the doggy party, always ready to make new furry friends and spread the joy wherever he goes.Weighing in at approximately 54.00 lbs, Tj is the perfect combination of cuddly and compact.

Story
Sweet Murray! This boy is a one year old tricolor Aussie, very striking looking and as loving as he is gorgeous. Not only is he handsome; he's also easygoing and loving. He's basically a big goofy older puppy. Murray plays really well with other dogs. He's also a lover with people. He's probably too rowdy for little kids. And we don't know how he is with cats. Murray is vaccinated, neutered, microchipped, and ready to be your best friend!

Story
Juni will need to be picked up in Rancho Cucamonga, CA where she is currently in foster care. Hi, I'm Juni (short for Juniper)! I'm a young, 1-year-old Miniature Aussie with a heart full of love. My world is full of wonder and curiosity. I love exploring new things and I'm a playful pup always ready for a game of fetch or a fun romp in the yard. I'm very affectionate and love to cuddle and snuggle up for a good nap or for a pet on my soft fur. My gentle nature and friendly spirit make me a great companion and I am just the right size to care for (appox 30 lbs). I've got energy to spare and a tail that won't stop wagging. But what I want most is a family to share all my love and energy with. Adopting me means boundless love, and a faithful friend forever. My adoption fee is $400 and I have an appointment to be spayed in January. Email Alphadogpetrescue@yahoo.com for an application to adopt me at I am located near Rancho Cucamonga, CA.

Story
Breed: Australian Shepherd DOB: 5/17/2014 Gender: female Altered: yes Coat: long Size: large Color(s): blue merle Description:Hi, I'm Gracie, a gorgeous Australian Shepherd who is in need of a new home as a previously torn ACL which remains susceptible to re-injury has made my current two story home uninhabitable for me.I enjoy eating, sleeping, cuddling and chilling. I'm good with children and cats, although I might want to chase them, but just to play. I'm not good with other dogs inside or outside the home. I'm still active, but due to my previous injury I need to be in a single story home and my activity needs to be monitored. I tend to be anxious at times so I take  trazadone to help keep this under control. My owners let me sleep with them, I hope you will too.As you can see from my photos, I ride great in the car, I enjoy playing in the sprinklers and I've been to the snow. I know basic commands and I'm sure I could learn more.If you're interested in meeting me, please fill out an online application.June 23, 2024, 3:17 pm

Lola is excellent with people and loves children, making her a perfect family addition. She's crate trained, housebroken, and leash trained, understanding commands like a pro. Lola was in a home where she wasn’t exposed to other dogs, which led to some excitement and reactivity on leash. She’s currently working through this and making great progress.

Story
It breaks our hearts to share that we need to find a new home for our beloved dog, Wasabi. She’s a sweet, energetic Border Collie mix who’s been part of our family for 5 wonderful years. Wasabi loves fetch, hiking, beach runs, and cuddles. She’s incredibly smart and thrives in a structured, loving environment. Unfortunately, since our daughter was born, Wasabi has struggled with the unpredictability of a toddler. We believe she’d be happier in a home where she feels more at ease. We’re looking for someone who can provide: A stable, loving environment. A yard or regular outdoor activities. No young children (older kids are fine). This is a tough decision, and we’re committed to finding the best home for Wasabi. If you or someone you know is interested, please reach out. Thank you for helping us give Wasabi the love and care she deserves.
