Binx is a 1 year old Aussie mix. She was caught after she was dumped on a state road. She has a badly injured leg. It is now healed. We did an Embark DNA test on her. The results are in the photos. She is a very sweet active girl. She requires an active home. A family that could do agility with her would be the best for her. She must have a secured fenced in yard. Binx is spayed, up to date on shots, rabies and heartworm negative and on prevention. She walks good on a leash and knows her basic commands. She loves to snuggle in bed with you. She gets a little anxious in a crate but enjoys a kong to help her relax. Her adoption fee is $425 ##2575367##

Max needs an Aussie lover!!

Australian Shepherd

Male, Young
North Manchester, IN
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Not good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Max is a purebred Australian Shepherd and 2½ years old. On his hind legs he is over 5 ft tall. He is fully housebroken. Definitely a velcro dog. Hes so very sweet and funny. He REQUIRES a fenced in yard to run off his energy. He loves kids but doesn't know how big he is, so they do tend to get knocked down, so very little ones wouldn't be ideal. He plays hard and can jump on higher things pretty easily. He needs an Aussie lover because they're "special" dogs. Needs serious training!! Not for the inexperienced dog owner. Thank you for your consideration. I WILL EMAIL YOU IN RESPONSE TO AN APPLICATION TO START THE PROCESS OF MEETING SO LOOK FOR THAT EMAIL PLEASE.
