Story
Willow is a beautiful and sweet purebred australian shepherd. She is 100% a velcro dog wanting nothing more than to be with her people. She will greet you with excitement at the door and follow you everywhere you go in the house. At night she will quietly sleep beside you in her dog bed. Willow has a fairly low energy level for an australian shepherd and is happy to play fetch with a ball a few times a day or go for a walk and then rest by your side. She is 35 pounds of love and almost solid black; she has the smallest touch of white on her chin. Willow is excellent with children. We have two children under 5 that have climbed on her and played with her, taken her toys or bones, and she's always loving and patient. She has a fairly high prey drive so I would not trust her alone with a cat. We have another dog in the house and they get on fine and play together but Willow will guard her food from other animals. She will be three years old in December.

Story
Indigo is a 5-year-old mini Australian Shepherd. He has tons of energy. He loves to go on hikes and walks. His favorite activity is to play fetch (he'll do it all day!). Because of his energy level, he'll need to go to a home where he has plenty of opportunities to run or exercise. A home with a fenced yard is preferred, although if you have access to places for Indigo to be able to run, that is fine. He has severe anxiety, which he takes medication for. Some situations that trigger him are people coming and going, car rides, and walking on bridges (he's really weird about this one). A potential adopter would need to be patient with him to be able to assure him in these situations. Indigo has been in his current home since he was 1, but due to multiple factors, such as cross-country relocation, changes in work schedules, and his anxiety, his owners want to give him the best opportunity to go to a home that can give him what he needs.

Story
Koda is a smart, energetic 9-month-old Aussie pup! He is a good boy at heart and adapts really well to change. He's now in a foster home with 3 other dogs (all over 50lbs) and loves to run and play with them. He really enjoys water, and will not hesitate to jump into the shower with you! . His foster mom is working really hard on his crate training. He may have been left crated and made to use the bathroom in the crate--he did not understand that he should pee or poop on walks. Recently, he has had no accidents in his cage, and has begun using walks as well as reusable pee pads on the back porch. Koda is definitely a work in progress, but he has so much potential. He would do best in a home that understands Aussies, and has the time to keep him active and busy. He’s great around kids and loves to meet new people!

Story
If you are looking for a handsome young man who is smart, playful and enjoys walks, then you should meet Sawyer! Sawyer is very playful and very smart. He knows how to sit and has enjoyed learning new tricks such as giving his paw, and stay! We are continuing to work on 'lay down', and potty training. He will play with his toys, but he really enjoys cuddling and getting his belly rubbed. He has been given multiple dog puzzles and enjoyed solving how to get his treats out! Sawyer would be a good fit for anyone who has a backyard, he needs space to run around. He also might benefit from someone being home with him; he really enjoys training and interacting with people. As active as Sawyer enjoys being he also has his calm moments where he is happy to lay underneath your desk or take a midday nap in the kitchen. Since Sawyer is a Border Collie, it is important to note he has displayed natural herding behavior. Potential adopters should be aware of this behavior as this might not work for families with younger children. Sawyer is up to date on vaccinations, flea/tick, heartworm prevention, is microchipped, and is already neutered. If you have dogs or cats, we recommend slow introductions over time. If you have children in your home, we recommend supervision between animals and children at all times.If you think you might be the perfect match for Sawyer, email his foster dad at jason.lilley00@gmail.com with the subject line "Sawyer."

Story
Arya is an energetic, playful, snuggle bug. She is four years old & we’ve had her since she was 8 weeks old. This is absolutely the toughest decision we’ve ever made, but she has not adjusted well to our infant & needs a home ASAP. Arya loves to go for runs, walks, bike rides, hikes, & car rides. She is well-trained. She is fully house trained, leash trained, & crate trained. She loves to snuggle & give kisses but needs someone that can keep up with her love to play. She’s such a happy dog & will make an incredible companion. She is a high energy breed, so she would be best suited for someone who is active or has a large fenced in yard for her to play. She loves to play tug-of-war, keep away, & fetch. She's very intelligent & loves to practice her training and puzzles! Although Arya's not comfortable with young children, she loves new people & is perfect for anyone looking for a one pet household! Arya would do well with middle to high school aged children.

Story
Meet Jolene. She is a collie mix who is full of life and just simply adorable. She has masted the art of head tilting, snuggling and winning over most people she meets. Jolene loves to play with toys, and people but shes not sure of other dogs so would need to be in a home without another furry friend. She has lots of energy, so someone who is going to play and work with her. She loves her crate and will often settle in it by herself for a nap. If Jolene sounds like she could be your new best friend, apply at pipsrescue.org/adopt ##1611630##
