Story
His name is Atlas, he is 6 years old, 8/1/2018. Atlas is actually a Blue Heeler/Australian Shepard mix. I am a truck driver, and Atlas was secretly donated to me when I was at work when his original human parents divorced. Atlas responds very well to reward-based training. He is a great watch dog also I feel he would be great for a couple or individual with or without other dogs. he has been known to chase cats but hasn't harmed cats or kids he just needs a loving forever home where he can get the time and attention he needs.

Pound

Australian Shepherd

Male, Young
Independence, MO
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Pound was born right here on our homestead a couple of years ago. He lives with his mom and dad, brother and sister. His other Aussie siblings were rehomed at 8 weeks and registered with American Stockdog Registry. We have loved having him and he guards our home well. We learned of a city ordinance that only allows us to have 4 dogs so sadly we have to part with one. We chose Pound because he has become the alpha and ended up being larger than his dad, Mud. He needs a new home with territory of his own and work to do.
