Nick
What a beautiful boy! Brenner is a 1 to 1.5 yr. old neutered Male Australian Shepherd mix. He is 45-50 lbs., House trained, Current on all vaccinations.
He has a super soft coat! People love to touch him and he loves to be touched - especially belly rubs. He is patient when being groomed.
Brenner gets along with other dogs he is acquainted with but may be leary of dogs he has not met. He has not been around cats at this point.
Brenner does have a limitation in that he is hard of hearing or deaf. He has been trained in ASL signs for sit , stay, come and look... He is very bright and a quick learner... we are confident vibration collar training would be a success with him. He is very visual and loves to see you at all times.
Brenner is great with kids but should be in a home with kids 10 and up, because his herding instinct is activated by movement and he jumps up at the elbows those he deems his equals or younger when outside and in play. Deaf dogs also have a harder time with children because they cant always hear them coming and so are more apt to be startled.
Brenner is such a love bug! He enjoys humans very much and loves to sit up against you as much as he can. He also enjoys car rides, chewing kong toys, fetching a ball and having you chase him in play. He is a happy guy who could bring a lot of joy into your heart.

Rosa
Rosa is a beautiful 1 year old tri-color English Shepherd mix or Hovawart. She is shy but sweet. We are told she is good with dogs, cats, and kids.
From Rosa's foster home: Rosa came to us as a “Foster Pooch” on the 5th of June. She is a very social, very happy girl who loves to romp and play. We were told she is very shy, however, we’ve decided she’s not really shy just very submissive. She is a little wiggler when she wants attention, which is pretty frequent but she is very good about going and laying down and just hanging out when you’re done petting her. She gets along great with our whole pack, (a benefit of her submissive side-she is threatening to none of our “Alpha’s”). She is a very fun, very loving dog, happy just to be with you and her pack. She does loves having a pack-loves to romp with the other dogs.
Rosa needs a mellow home with active people. She wouldn’t do well in a loud home with folks who holler a lot or kids who are overly physical. She loves a good walk but her need for exercise isn’t excessive. We go about a ½ mile twice a day and that’s plenty for her. Her coat is probably going to be fairly low maintenance as long as you brush her once in a while so she doesn’t mat up.
She’s been pretty good with my cats. She’s interested in them but not overly so. We’re careful to control her excitement with them.
Murphy
Murphy is a 1 year old neutered male black bi-color corgi/border collie mix. He is corgi-sized and has the traits of a corgi. He is great with kids and dogs. This is a fantastic, friendly dog with so much potential. Like many corgi's, he is inclined to bark, but we believe he has been debarked at some point prior to his rescue as his bark is a hoarse whisper. He would be a great agility prospect. Murphy is neutered.
Shane
Shane is a 2 year old male collie/springer mix. Loves to play and is very friendly with people. He has the cutest face!! Shane has been started on basic obedience and is very smart and willing to please. He would love to be a lap dog, but accepts being told no. He likes the other dogs. Shane is neutered and current on vaccinations.
Rio
Rio is another border collie on stilts. We are not sure exactly what his mix is other than a border collie and a very tall dog, possibly akbash, greyhound, or great dane. Rio stands about 25-26 inches at the shoulder. He is 12 months old. Rio is a fun loving guy who likes to play with other dogs- play bows, chase, and wrestling- it's all fun to him. He would probably do best with another young enegetic and not too small dog as he could be too much for a small dog or one that wears out easily. Rio has some basic training in obedience. He is very friendly towards stangers, but will jump up on occasion, which may not be the best with very small children. Rio is an on the go dog- not hyper- but likes to have something to do all the time. He would benefit from a household that would also teach him to relax by rewarding him with attention and praise when he is relaxed. Rio is housetrained and crate trained. This is a very nice, very striking dog.
Nika
Nika is a spayed border collie mix. . She is approximately 1.5 years old. Nika is compatible with women, children 0-12, dogs, cats, and livestock. She is housebroken and used to car rides and living inside. Nika is noted to be easygoing, friendly, playful, and nervous around some adult men. She is a beautiful girl with a fabulous, shiny coat of fur. She appears to be about 19-20" tall at the shoulder, and her weight is estimated at 55#. She is happy and sweet, and is comfortable around people and other doggies. Nika is easy to leash and walks well on leash. She stays close when off leash. What a NICE girl!
Nova
Nova is a cute 17 month old Jack Russel Terrier/Australian Cattle Dog mix. She is fairly petite. Nova is VERY active, as you can imagine with this combination of breeds. What a fabulous agility prospect she would make!! She can scale fences so needs a home where that can be addressed. Nova is good with kids and is housetrained. She likes to chase cats though, so needs a home without felines. Nova is spayed.
Smiley is a smiley guy. Yes, he does actually grin. Smiley is about 18 months old. He is an Australian Cattle Dog/Heeler Border Collie mix. Not too big, about 40 lbs. Smiley is house trained and used to living as a family pet. He was surrendered by his owner because of changes in the family. Not Smiley's fault. Now he's looking for a new home. Smiley has been through basic obedience training and knows several commands. He has been living with a 2 year old little girl that he loves. He gets a long well with other dogs and is fine with cats. Smiley's gentle temperament would make him a great candidate for work as a therapy dog.
Smiley
Kyleigh
Kyleigh is a very active Kelpie/Border Collie mix. She is only 5 months old and ready to begin living life. Kyleigh would make a great agility prospect and has already been through tunnels and over a low A-frame. She is super sweet! Very friendly with all people and kids. She does still need to learn good manners, like not jumping up and nipping with her sharp puppy teeth. Kyleigh will be spayed before placement.
Luke is an awesome dog. He is a male 1 year old Border Collie mix. We believe him to be mixed with one of the large stock guardian dogs such as a Great Pyrenes or Akbash, accounting for his legginess. We cant understand why he was abandoned. He has quite a familiarity with commands, walks well on leash, and is very sweet and affectionate. He is lean and leggy and beautiful.
Fivel has been West, and North, through the shelter and into foster care, now the only place he wants to go is his FOREVER HOME. Fivel is a 8 month old herding breed mix. He is a sweet guy who needs a loving home. Fivel is very playful and likes other dogs. He has a docked tail and is a medium size- about 40 lbs. Fivel will be neutered and current on vaccinations before placement.
Kalli
Kalli is a spayed Australian Shepherd/Chow mix. She is housetrained and very trustworthy in the house. Kalli is a very easy dog- she is not hyper, demanding, destructive, pushy, etc. She mostly minds her business and lets you mind yours. Kalli is currently on a diet and should look much slimmer soon.
Kayley is a purebred papered blue merle Australian Shepherd. She has a blue eye. She is a bit of an escape artist, but a sweet girl. Kayley was surrendered to a kill shelter because her owner felt she could no longer afford her. Kayley is spayed and current on vaccinations.
Kayley
Dundee is a 5 year old neutered male Australian Kelpie mix. He is such a snuggler, his favorite place is with his head on your lap. Dundee is housetrained and generally pretty well-behaved around the house. He settles very nicely and likes to snooze. He can get a little rough when playing, but generally does well with other dogs. He is a confident assertive dog that likes to go places and meet new people. He may become sick on LONG carrides, ie over 2 hours long. Dundee is about 45 lbs. Dundee would make a great companion for hiking, walking, and watching movies by the fire.
Dundee is NADAC registered as an agility dog and will come with his registration card and ribbons he has won. Dundee does NOT have to go to an agility home. A home that would love him and cuddle with him would be fine.

Posie
Posie and Newton are 9-10 month old Australian Cattle Dog/Terrier mixes. Newton looks like a wirehaired Cattledog. They are fairly small, around 30 lbs. They are a bit on the shy side, but quickly warming up to humans. They are both spayed/neutered and current on vaccinations. They do not need to be placed together and will probably progress quickest if they go to seperate homes.
Newton
Nip and Tuck
Nip is about 7 mo old - very sweet small little BC/poss heeler x - social with people and other animals, active without being too demanding. She would work if someone wanted a working dog, but she would also be a great companion for an active person. She will be spayed and brought up to date on vaccinations before placement. She is crate trained and is almost housetrained - uses a dog door.
Tuck is Nip's brother - Tuck is social with people and other animals, biddable but busy. He will need to go to a home where he will be kept busy - he would make a great working or performance dog. Neither Nip or Tuck is going to be a very big dog. Tuck is about 30 lbs, Nip about 25. Tuck is crate trained and uses a dog door. He will be neutered and brought up to date on vaccines before placement.
