Story
Indie is a 3.5 year old Australian Shepherd. He is a super loyal companion and loves nothing more than being around his people. He’s not a huge toy-lover, but he does love playing fetch, tug of war, and playing with dogs familiar to him. Indie is very protective of his people and his home. For that reason, he would do best living in a quieter area. He can be aggressive towards strangers and unfamiliar dogs, but is able to get to know new people (as long as they give him treats!) Indie will do great with an experienced dog owner who is comfortable with an anxious and reactive dog and able to give him the attention and training he needs. He is okay being home alone during the day and is not destructive or prone to accidents. Just know that if you’re gone for a long time, he’ll be SO a excited to see you when you come home!

Story
In Dunlap, TN -Artie is ready for his forever home! Artie is special needs, as he is completely blind. He has done so well in his foster home. Artie is a 1 year old Australian mix who is completely blind. He is neutered, current on all vaccinations, on heartworm prevention and microchipped. Artie is a lively boy filled with curiosity about the world. He loves the sound of planes overhead and the rustle of the leaves in the wind and the feel of the sun and wind on his face. He is potty trained (but taken out quite often). He loves being in the house with his people and also running outside with his two Aussie friends. He is crate trained and rarely puts up a bark about going into the crate. He loves the contents of a full toy basket and will empty it to make sure he shares his attention with each toy. He is very smart and is learning commands. Artie has been blind since birth but he is so eager to find his way. You would not know he's blind as he maneuvers around the house and outside. He bumps into things occasionally, but he keeps right on going. He will follow you anywhere if you have treats. He may be able to detect light and movement of shapes. We have hopes that Artie will become a very enjoyable and loved family pet, as he is not aggressive or reactive in the least and has a soft mouth when playing with toys and loves a good pet and scratch. Artie would do well with a companion dog, preferably a dog his size or larger. He is also very capable of entertaining himself with his toys and would do well as an only “child” because he loves his people and wants to be wherever they are. He needs a fenced yard so he can run and play without veering off in a wrong direction. He will need continued leash training, but should do well with time and consistency. What Artie needs most is a loving human who is patient and can help guide him through the world and keep him safe and someone who will be dedicated to him and make him part of the family. He will love you and you will love him! He is ready for adventures. Check out Artie. If you would like to consider making Artie a part of your family, please fill out our adoption application at the link below. https://www.australianshepherdsfurever.org/adoption... There is an additional $20 microchip fee which includes registration and transfer to his new furever family.

Story
Rue is a 4.5 year old Australian Shepherd. He is sweet and likes people, and loves to play. He is energetic and likes to be taken on walks and play often, but also enjoys alone time. He is crate trained, very well potty trained and he doesn't chew things up, get into the trash etc. He's very well-behaved in the house And car. Rue is reactive to other animals and would be best in a home without other animals , He also is nervous boy and needs a calmer, loving home. We believe he'd do best with a large yard to play in. He is losing his home because he barks at other animals and just isn't doing well in a city environment. Please fill out an application if you think an emotional , housetrained Aussie would be a good match for you. Rue needs a patient home who will Work with his insecurities. https://form.jotform.com/240344297703052 His adoption fee has been sponsored.

Story
Elijah is ready to find his forever home. Elijah is a 2 1/2 year old Australian Shepherd/Husky cross (best guess). He has the most beautiful blue eyes! He is being fostered in Soddy Daisy, TN. Elijah was found wandering a neighborhood in TN. A family took him in and kept him safe while they searched for an owner, which was never found. They wanted what was best for him and reached out to ASF. Upon coming into rescue, it was found that Elijah was heartworm positive. ASF jumped into action for his treatment plan and he completed treatment with no complications at all and he is now heartworm free! The ideal home for Elijah would be one where he can be a part of the family. He's a friendly and happy boy. It would be best to have a home without small children, just because of his size, he weighs right at 65 lbs. Older children would be fine. He gets along great with other dogs. No cats or livestock, as he is a little too interested and wants to chase them. A taller fence, such as a privacy fence or taller than the standard 4 ft fence is recommended. That's due to the husky in him and wanting to explore. He walks well on the leash so a fence isn't necessarily required if he has someone who is very active and would include him in daily activities on the leash, walks, hikes, outings, etc. Elijah is neutered up to date on all vaccines, on heartworm and flea/tick prevention and is microchipped. Elijah will make a wonderful companion and is ready to take on new adventures with his new person or family! A link to our adoption application can be found below. https://www.australianshepherdsfurever.org/old-adoption There is an additional $20 microchip fee which includes registration and transfer to his new furever family. All adoption fees are used for future rescue efforts.

Story
River is an almost 3yr old full bred Australian Shepherd. He has been professionally trained and knows all the commands. He walks on a leash well and does well in public places. He is e-collar trained and responds very well to it. He is fully house and crate trained. He is good with our baby. He is not good with cats. He has a very big bark and barks often. He does need constant supervision. He struggles with remaining calm and can often get overwhelmed with unfamiliar people. He is extremely high energy and would be considered a super chewer. He is very much a people person (familiar people only) but has a difficult time being calm enough to be petted. He needs a high energy family who can support his need for structure and exercise. A fenced area would definitely be preferred.

Ladies and Gentleman start your engines" Indie is here! This is one fun, active and loving dog! First thing that comes to mind when I think of Indie, is The Indianapolis 500.

Sadly, her parents have been juggling work schedules and could not make it work. Indie has a wonderful temperament, a loyal and sweet blend of Cattle Dog and Australian Shephard. She would be ideal for an active, attentive family with a fenced yard. (Only reviewing applications with fenced yards) Indie prefers to be the only dog in the home. Did I mention she's an Internet sensation in Dalton? Many have seen her cruising around downtown in the infamous Red Convertible and eating at local eateries.

Story
I am looking to rehome my 2yo Border Collie mix named Gimmy. He is neutered, UTD with vax, microchipped, housebroken and crate trained. He also gets along with pretty much every dog he's ever met. I'm rehoming him bc he is an escape artist. He constantly digs my fence line and runs around. I live near a very busy road so I am scared he will get hit by a car. I've lined my fence line with barriers and cinderblocks, but he keeps finding a way and I just don't know what to do anymore. I work a full time job and go to school full time, so I normally let my pups hang out in the yard and they have all been really good up until about two months ago. Gimmy and my other dog, Elly, have just kept getting out everytime they're in the yard. My other dogs do not ever follow them. So I've decided to try and find him a home with someone who can keep a better eye on him or someone who has experience with escape artists.
