Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Argo arrived in November 2022 from our friends at the Rescue Network after he was rescued from a Reservation in South Dakota. He is about 3 years old does have a lot of the trademark features of mixed breed dogs from Reservations - "Rezzies", as they are affectionately known in rescue. Like many Rezzies, he could be a mix of cattle dog and German and/or Australian shepherd, just to name a few possible options. He's a handsome and very active dog. He has been vet checked and neutered and his fee is $125. Argo has had some basic training and will require a lot of consistent exercise. This is of the utmost importance in order to keep him well balanced and happy. He is ready for action all the time but gets serious when leashed. He does pretty well on leash walks and loves car rides. He's an affectionate guy, too, who thinks nothing of climbing into a person's lap if he gets the chance. Argo would do best in a home with a large fenced yard. He's not a dog for apartment living. He's looking for an ADULT only, single person home as he tends to bond very closely to his person and becomes quite protective. No cats for him. He's incredibly smart and would be a lot of fun to train!

Story
Meet Rocky – A Loyal and Energetic Aussie Mix Looking for His Perfect Match! Rocky is a 4-year-old Blue Heeler/Australian Shepherd mix with a heart full of love and a mind always ready for action. Weighing 35 pounds, he’s the perfect size for an experienced adopter who understands the unique quirks of herding breeds. Rocky has already had at least two homes, and while he’s a sweet and affectionate dog, he needs a structured environment to truly thrive. He’s currently on anxiety medication to help him feel more secure, and he’ll do best with an experienced, patient owner who can provide the stability he craves. True to his breed mix, Rocky is highly intelligent, energetic, and deeply loyal. He has a natural tendency to be protective of his people and space. He has exhibited resource guarding, particularly around food bowls with other dogs, so he would do best as the only pet in the home. He has also shown guarding behaviors around people and has had incidents involving a crate and small children. Because of this, he needs a home without young kids and with someone familiar with managing a strong-willed, working-breed dog. Despite these challenges, Rocky has an incredibly sweet side. In the right hands, with an owner who understands herding breeds and their quirks, we believe he can truly flourish. He needs a leader who will provide structure, training, and plenty of mental and physical exercise. Rocky isn’t just looking for any home—he’s looking for the right home. If you’re an experienced dog owner ready to give this special boy the guidance and love he needs, he could be the loyal companion you’ve been searching for. Interested in meeting Rocky?
