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
30 loves to lie in close proximity to people. She is indifferent to other pets. She does not like kids. She exhibits herding behavior. Our main reason for rehoming 30 is she has severe separation anxiety. 30 is fully house trained, however her separation anxiety leads to accidents in the house. With very odd hours and an extremely adventurous lifestyle, 30 often finds herself alone. We have attempted to get her animal companions, but we have found that she has no attachment to them. We would like to change this by finding her a good fit for her. 30 is 7 years old. Her name comes from her being a gift for my wife's 30th birthday. She understands and responds to most common commands.

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.

Story
Amigo is a beautiful Australian Shepherd//Border Collie mix. He is 6 years old and approximately 50lbs. Amigo is a sweet, playful boy that loves all people. He is good with other dogs but can be a bit bossy with dogs that are more laid back or shyer than he is, he also loves his toys and can be a bit nippy over a squeaky ball. He is also very treat motivated. He loves attention and to be brushed and really wants a person of his own to love and cuddle. Amigo is such a happy and handsome boy and is unique with one white eyebrow. He is crate trained but not fond of the crate. He walks ok on a leash and likes to go on car rides. Amigo has pretty good manners but needs work on his recall and can be hard headed. He is house trained but because he wasn't neutered until recently, he will try to mark so he will need consistent training to get through this. He is up to date on vaccinations, heartworm negative and on prevention, and microchipped. Amigo's perfect home would be one as an only dog or one with a dog of even temperament. He has not been around cats while at his foster home so we are not sure how he would do. We do recommend kids over the age of 10 year old since he is so playful and may knock over smaller ones. He is up to date on vaccines, microchipped and neutered. If he sounds perfect for your family, please fill out the application: https://www.australianshepherdsfurever.org/adoption-application There is an additional $20 microchip fee which includes registration and transfer to his new furever home. All adoption fees are used for future rescue efforts.

Story
Shep is a sweet and goofy 18 month old boy who is looking for his people to hang and go on adventures with. This boy is a big goofball and loves attention. Shep has good manners and listens well. He is good with other dogs and children, does well in the car and is crate trained. He is such a good boy! He is curious about cats, so we would say no to that. Shep is working on house and leash training and doing well and is a little unsure of loud noises. He is doing well learning basic commands. He is definitely on the submissive side and is looking for a soft spot to lay in and a person to hang out with. Shep is the victim of some bad breeding but he holds no grudges. He just wants a family to call his own. He is up to date on vaccines, neutered and microchipped. If this sweet boy sounds perfect for your family, please fill out the application: https://www.australianshepherdsfurever.org/adoption-application There is an additional $20 microchip fee which includes registration and transfer to his new furever family.
