Retiring? Your Aussie Isn’t
“We are retiring soon, and having a dog really won’t fit in with our new lifestyle now. We’ll be traveling quite a bit, moving to a different state…so if we don’t find a new home for Maggie we have decided…

Dot is deaf, but sees just fine with her beautiful blue eyes. She knows some hand signals and is learning more as she finds her trust with her foster mom and dad. Continue reading

Meet Charlie Border Collie Needs A Home ADOPTED
My name is Charlie. I’m a typical, fun-loving one year old border collie. I love to play frisbee and am really great at catching and playing ball, too. I might even be good at agility and /or herding… I am up to date on my shots and am currently on preventative heartworm pills. I’m a skinny kid, but I like to eat! I still have some work to do on my training, but I have a good start. I can walk well on a leash, and can sit and lay down (with a treat is nice). Although I love to run and play, I can cuddle and lay next to you on the couch or floor. I am housebroken and very loving when I can be next to you. Other dogs are ok, but it takes me a bit to get used to them and I don’t mind cats either. My Mom was 76 yrs old and started having trouble with her eyes and can’t keep me anymore, but wants me to be with another great family.
Complete an application at New Spirit. Reference Private Referral Charlie in IL

Black Tri Australian Shepherd Quinn (NS 0308) ADOPTED
Quinn is a 3 year old black tri male who is on the larger side, he currently weighs around 52 pounds, and needs to gain yet a few more to be at his proper weight. Quinn was a stray found in Kentucky, so he has a slight drawl to his bark, but it’s a gentlemanly bark.
Quinn is learning the clicker and when we got him, he was not house broken, but he is catching on fast and will be all learned by the time he gets his forever home.
Quinn gets along with other dogs, he is a shadow to his foster mom, and seems to not demand toys or treats as all his only. He does have a passion for a fresh bone, and has argued with the girls over it.
Quinn has one habit we are correcting, he pinches with his front teeth, or nibbles. Be is pretty much a 50+ pound puppy right now but should settle in nicely. He seems to tolerate cats, walks on a leash, and rides well in a car.
To adopt Quinn please complete an application at New Spirit App Reference NS 0308

Sad But I Was Asked To
I was asked to remove all reference to Aussie Rescue Placement Helpline (ARPH) yesterday. This was any dogs for adoption or that were adopted.
So I guess if you are looking for an Aussie, do a search for other rescues…
