Story
Bucky is a 4 year old Australian Shepherd mix. He is a little joyous ball of energy weighing around 30lbs. He goes very few places without a ball in his mouth, is incredibly athletic, and loves attention from everyone he meets. He is cat neutral, gets along great with all dogs (though dogs that want to reciprocate play will be necessary), crates wonderfully, and is potty trained with a consistent routine! Bucky came from a hoarding case in KY where someone passing themselves off as a rescue had dogs chained outside in deplorable conditions with no shelter, and eventually started dumping dogs to cover their tracks. A long time rescuer saved 60 dogs from the situation, and 2 of them made their way to us up north to search for their forever families with us! Bucky is searching for a home with children over the age of 10 and a fully fenced yard due to his energy level. He does well with dogs of all sizes, but does want to play with them all, so dogs under 20lbs and of toy stature, older dogs, or very dog-shy dogs would not be a good fit. Bucky is accepting applications and is currently available for meet and greets with approved adopters! If you’re interested in adopting him or getting pre-approved for our other dogs, please fill out the adoption application at www.RosebudRescue.com/adopt

Story
Keller is a 12 week old Australian Shepherd saved from a puppy mill who is deaf and visually impaired as the result of double merle breeding. Despite that, he has a great spark for life and is incredibly smart and ready to start his next adventure! We estimate that his adult weight will be 30-40lbs as we were told he is a mini Aussie. Keller is very dog friendly, cohabitating with cats, and loves every person he’s met. He is progressing with leash walking and currently sleeps with his brother in an open crate inside of a play pen. They sleep through the night without accidents 99% of the time and have never pooped in the pen - potty training should be a breeze! Keller will more than likely need to be trained with touch cues as he navigates his surroundings well but has a hard time focusing on moving objects and may not be able to differentiate signs from one another. PLEASE NOTE, if you do not have prior experience with deaf dogs, it will be a requirement that you take classes with a trainer specializing in this type of training. We have one local trainer in the Buffalo area who has availability for in person classes, and another trainer who is available for virtual training sessions as well. It will be very important that his adopter sets him up for success and learns how to properly communicate with him. You will need to provide proof of enrolling him in training before the 3 week foster to adopt period is over and the adoption is finalized. Keller will need booster vaccines and will be neutered by our vet in Hamburg, NY so we are only accepting local applicants who can bring him to these appointments at this time. If you’re interested in fostering or adopting this sweet pup, please submit an application at www.rosebudrescue.com/adopt or email us if you already have one on file! As a reminder, we DO NOT adopt outside of the United States.
