Story
Eli is a 6.5 year old Aussie who his people made the hard decision to surrender after he began nipping their toddler. They worked with trainers and don’t believe the behavior was intended to harm their child, but herding instead. Despite their best efforts, nothing was able to change his behavior. They reached out to us over a month ago and drove all the way from Georgia to find a rescue they believed would do right by him and keep him in a low-stress environment. We haven’t known Eli long but from what we have seen and have been told about him, he’s a super sweet and loving boy and should have no trouble finding a new forever home! As long as there are no small children, he’s the perfect dog! He’s crate trained, house trained, and has basic obedience. He’s very food motivated but due to his weight we recommend keeping extra snacks to a minimum. He’s friendly to all humans and good with smaller dogs. He’s good with bigger dogs too after a proper introduction, but he’s a bit fearful of them at first. Cats and other small animals a no-no though. He does need to lose some weight, but aside from that Eli is totally healthy and ready to be adopted! He’s microchipped, neutered, UTD on his vaccines, prevention, heartworm tested negative, and has a negative fecal test.

Story
Courtesy Post: Owner Surrender/Rehoming- St. Petersburg, FL Parker is an 3 year old Australian Shepherd and weighs 40 lbs. He is up to date on shots, but isn’t neutered or on heartworm prevention. Parker is nervous around strangers! He is good with children and dogs! He hasn’t been tested around cats. Parker has bitten the owner twice and his wife once. The first time he bit the owner was in November 2023. The owner went to pick up a toy while Parker was under a chair, which led to Parker biting his left foot. Parker also bit his wife on a separate occasion while she was petting him on the couch. She tried to push him away and he bit her left arm. The most recent bite was on 6/12/24. The owner came home late. Parker was sitting in the hallway against the wall. The owner tried getting close to him, resulting Parker biting his left hand. The owner is surrendering him because of these bite incidents. They’re also expecting a baby. He needs to find a new furever home as soon as possible! If you think you can provide a great home for Parker, please contact the owner listed below. There is a $150 rehoming fee to assure good folks with good intentions. This fee will be donated to Australian Shepherds Furever for their assistance in placing Parker. Owner’s Contact Information: Rodrigo at rodoliveirarealtor@gmail.com.

PLEASE READ THE ANIMALS PROFILE AND ALL NOTES BELOW BEFORE APPLYING! Meet Blair! Blair is the bestest and most beautiful girl. She is super sweet and is loving. She's a bit shy at first but once she warms up to you she just wants to play. She would love a yard to run around and play in. Can you give her the forever home she deserves? From Blair:Hi, Im Blair! Im a 2-year-old Australian Shepherd with lots of energy and even more love to give! Im smart, eager to please, and I already know some commands like sit, down, and stay (pretty cool, right?). Im also crate trained and house trained, so I promise Ill be on my best behavior! Ill admit, I can be a little nervous at first, but once I warm up to you, Im all about the cuddles and affection. I do tend to get a bit protective of my favorite humans, so Id do best as the only dog in the house. However, I might be okay with a dog my size if theyre more laid back and submissive. I just like being the queen of my castle! My ideal home would be with an active family who loves adventures as much as I do! Whether its a fenced yard to run around in or access to a dog park, Im all in. Id also love some older kids to play withso much fun! A word from my foster: Blair is incredibly sweet and deserves a family that will smother her with love and patience. Shes a loyal, playful girl who just needs a little extra training with leash walking and learning not to jump when excited. But with the right family, shell be an amazing companion!
