Haggi (Goldie) NS 0644

Haggi (Goldie) NS 0644

Haggi who’s name means festive is a 2 old red merle Australian Shepherd mix. Haggi is a typical enthusiastic, energetic velcro dog. She is reserved at first with people she doesn’t know but a little sweet talk and a treat quickly wins her over. She is very quiet and good in her crate. She loves other dogs but sometimes can play a little rough – she is OK with dog savvy cats, but likes to chase them. Haggi loves to run outside and keep busy but she also settles down nicely once inside and her favorite place to nap is laying next to her foster mom. She waits at the door before going outside and walks well on leash. Haggi is a little thin right now but her optimum weight would be around 40 lbs.

ADOPTED: Kernel (Nick) Red Merle Australian Shepherd Male for Adoption NS 0625

Kernel (Nick) NS 0625

Kernel (Nick) NS 0625

Kernel is a red merle male Australian Shepherd, around 1 year old, who came into rescue with his sister Epoc (Shadow) and both must have had excellent socialization. Kernel will politely greet strangers and expect a pat on the head, he then runs back to his foster pack of 3 other Aussies. So Kernel is learning all the right things about what is expected of an Australian Shepherd.

Kernel enjoys other dogs, ignores cats, and is good with children. He loves car rides and crates well and walks on a leash just fine.

He does have a strange protrusion that sticks out from his Aussie rear-end, we are told it’s a tail, something common in those other breeds, he seems fine with it and actually will wave it from side to side to show just how happy and secure he is.

PENDING: Jager Red Bi Australian Shepherd Male for Adoption NS 0618

Jager NS 0618

Jager NS 0618

Jager is a healthy young 50lb. male red bi Australian Shepherd around 2 years old. He is loves being close to his “owner”. He has been trained to sit, lie, and knows the meaning of words such as “no” and “down”. He does well in a crate and is not food aggressive (food is out all day for him, no issues with the other dog in the home). He walks well on a leash and does not pull or try to “take off” after other dogs.

He has had no problems with other family dogs, he plays the border collie in his foster home and ignores a Pomeranian. He pays little attention to cats unless they frighten him, then he barks at them. He is well behaved at the dog park and no evidence of aggression besides normal play wrestling with other dogs.

Jager NS 0618

Jager NS 0618

Jager rides well in cars with a reminder that he cannot sit in the front seat. Like most Aussie’s he needs an “alpha”-owner from time to time to remind him of his place in the family pack. He does not like being approached by strange males with objects in their hands, and does not like fireworks or loud booming sounds.

Jager is being fostered in the Peoria Area. Complete an application at New Spirit today. Reference NS 0618
