We took in over 3 new Aussies this weekend, and adopted out a couple. I hope to post new BIO’s in the next few days after we figure out what we have. All are excellent guys and girls, that are in the puppy range of their age.

Also we will be at the Tri-Shark in Hudson Illinois on June 5th, selling magnets, bandanas and a chance to win a Portrait of your Aussie, or cat! More details to follow this week. Hope to see some of our adopters from ARPH and New Spirit there to celebrate great causes.

Nick Ames, a new volunteer with Aussie Rescue has donated his time and talents to video taping our Aussies for adoption, he came to Lotto’s birthday bash to tape all the fun.

The little guy laying on the floor is Moose, a very cute blue merle, he is soon up for adoption.
