Story
I am extremely heart broken that I have to rehome Leo. He is my best friend. He means the world to me. He is the sweetest dog. He also is an extremely intelligent dog and quick learner. He is great on and off the leash. He listens very well. He is loving. He loves people he gets so excited to see people. He loves cats and other dogs. He rarely barks; extremely rare. He is pure breed English Shepherd, about 45 lbs maybe a little less around 40-42 lbs. he has a fluff coat so he looks a lot bigger than he really is. I still pick him up like a puppy. He is so passive no aggression at all. If you think he’ll be a great addition to your family come give him a visit. He is turning 3 this year in December (2025). If I didn’t work so much and travel a lot with my new position I wouldn’t trade him for the world.

Story
Courtesy Post: Owner Surrender/Rehoming- Fairfax, VA Gus is an 4 year old Australian Shepherd and weighs 40 lbs. He is neutered, microchipped, up to date on shots, and on heartworm prevention. Gus is nervous around strangers! No children or dogs, due to his reactivity! He hasn’t been tested around cats. Several years ago, Gus escaped from the yard while someone else was watching him. A stranger found him and went to grab his collar, which caused Gus to bite the stranger. Gus is currently on gabapentin, clonidine, and Sertaline for his reactivity. His owner says that when he isn’t triggered, he is loving, loyal, smart, playful, and energetic! The owner is surrendering him because he doesn’t do well with their young children. If you think you can provide a great home for Gus, 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 Gus. Owner’s Contact Information: Devin at elliott.family.8823@gmail.com

Story
Meet Maple! Maple was returned to ASF due to resource guarding issues. Maple has been thoroughly assessed by ASF and is currently with ASF in a foster home. She is the sweetest, most lovely dog. Maple is now 14 months and is in the process of learning boundaries, getting exercise and loving life romping with her foster's two aussies. She is a beautiful, gentle, small at 31 lbs, blue merle with one blue eye. She is crate trained and house trained. Maple is kid, cat and dog friendly. She was raised with an 8 year old and will be fine with kids who have dog manners. She will chase cats but it is a game. The foster has been feeding the dogs separately, but has seen no resource guarding over people or toys. And Maple loves her toys. She likes balls, stuffed animals, nylabones and sticks. Even with chewing a nylabone, she is amenable when one of her foster's aussies steals it. Maple is very affectionate, always game to play but also happy to settle. She walks well on a leash and is not reactive, though will grumble back at dogs who grumble at her. The only drawback to Maple is she was diagnosed with diabetes at 7 months. ASF has done a full medical work up and tweaked her diet. Currently, the diabetes is managed with insulin shots twice/day, given after she eats. She takes the shots very well, with no notice at all. Maple needs a permanent foster, Foster to Adopt or adopter. She is a wonderful small aussie, and is child friendly. I believe she would thrive in a home with other aussies as she LOVES to play and chase – she has a kangaroo boxing style of play. She also needs consistent exercise, structure and training. Maple knows sit sometimes, leave it (more or less), walks well on a leash, but has no other training. She is very smart and learning fast. She is excellent at the vet and has NO reactivity issues. She is located in Falls Church, VA If she sounds perfect for you, please fill out our application: https://www.australianshepherdsfurever.org/adoption-application There is an additiona $20 microchip fee which includes registration and transfer to her new furever family.
