Well we had our booth at the Ottawa Bark in the Park, and it was a huge success. Stephanie Z must have baked over 200 cupcakes as she was able to generate $180.00 in just cupcake sales. She also made some homemade doggie treats. I want all our Aussies to give Steph the honoray Aussie butt Wiggle! Also a big thanks to Stephanies husband for bringing tables and a tent to shade us from the sun. Also for having Stryder show his great Aussie friendliness.
Also Sherry Mc brought homemade doggie treats (I tried one, it was a little bland, but good) and her family to help out as well manning the booth. Sherry brought Toby and Holland as well to show how great of kissers they were! Continue reading

Shayla Update: Our Special Rescue Girl – A Real Rescue

Shayla is doing remarkably better. The doctor stated in around 8 weeks the pins could come out of her leg and allow her to not live with the possibility of later infections. She will be getting all her vaccinations this week before being released and allowed to head to her first foster home. There she will stay until she is ready to head to her second foster home for her physical therapy. It will be sometime before this special girl is ready for adoption.
When Hal went to visit it her the day after surgery they doctor said she wouldn’t eat, but when Hal arrived, he snuck in some special don’t give food (just like us 2 leggers do for friends in the hospital) and she ate it right up and was excited and happy to see Hal. Hal was one of the rescue drivers that brought her into the vet’s office.
Yesterday when Hal visited her she was in very high spirits, even placing mild pressure on her leg. We expect a excellent recovery for our special Iowa girl named Shayla.

Help Shayla cover thoes expenses with a small $5 or $10 today.

Welcome 3 New Spirit Aussies Coming Up For Adoption Soon
We were very lucky to have these 3 Australian Shepherds come to New Spirit 4 Aussie Rescue. They were all from an owner turn in. All 3 are people lovers, and should be good with children, as always, toddlers can create an instant herding instinct when they run, they are Aussies and they do like to keep thinks in order.
Sundown (Sage NS 0627) is a 2 year old black tri female who will probably be best as the only dog in the home, so far that seems to be her desire.
Symbian (Boomer NS 0629) is a red tri male around 2 years old, he is a very happy and lively boy who is looking for a home. He is currently still with his Mom and Dad, who need to re-home him as soon as possible. Stay tuned for more on Symbian.
TACS (Lola) is a 2 year old blue merle female who’s owners couldn’t take her with them as they lost their home. She is said to be an all around good girl. All these Aussies are available, but not officially listed. Please send an email to AussieRescueIL {at} Gmail(.)com for more information.
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…
