			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Meet Sarah, a happy, energetic 6 month old Australian Shepherd. Sarah is a Blue Merle Lethal White Aussie, which is the result of breeding 2 Merle Australian Shepherds, producing what is called a Double Merle or M2M or Lethal White. Sarah has a tail, and she is blind in one eye, and maybe some partial impact on her other eye. She hears just fine.</p>
<div id="attachment_5689" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 410px"><img src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/ASRM-0021-Sarah-400x300.png" alt="Sarah Is A Lethal White" title="Sarah Is A Lethal White" width="400" height="300" class="size-medium wp-image-5689" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Sarah Is A Lethal White</p></div>
<p>Sarah is up to date on all her shots, and she is spayed. She is housebroken and crate trained and ready to roll right into a new home when you are ready to swing her in your home.</p>
<div id="attachment_5692" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 410px"><img src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/Sarah-014-400x300.png" alt="Sarah After  A hard Play Outside" title="Sarah After  A hard Play Outside" width="400" height="300" class="size-medium wp-image-5692" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Sarah After  A hard Play Outside</p></div>
<p>Sarah being a typical Australian Shepherd, loves to play, she instantly fit into her foster home of 4 others, including a cat and guinea pig. She will play with the others all day long and is sometimes found at the bottom of the pile.</p>
<div id="attachment_5690" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 410px"><img src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/Sarah-005-400x300.png" alt="Sarah Fits Right In" title="Sarah Fits Right In" width="400" height="300" class="size-medium wp-image-5690" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Sarah Fits Right In</p></div>
<p>Sarah has a very sweet and snuggling disposition, seen wagging her tail all the time and of course as the shots will show, she seems a bit of a tom boy, as she is always dirty.</p>
<div id="attachment_5691" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 410px"><img src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/Sarah-012-400x300.png" alt="Tomboy Anyone?" title="Tomboy Anyone?" width="400" height="300" class="size-medium wp-image-5691" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Tomboy Anyone?</p></div>
<p>Sarah is ready for a forever home, and will fit into any situation, be it another dog, cats, kids (of all sizes) she is what we call one of our bullet proof dogs.</p>
<p>Sarah is being fostered in Rochester Minnesota. To adoption this sweet pea, complete an application at <a href="http://www.aussierescueil.com/adoption-application/" title="Adoption Application"><strong>Aussie Rescue Midwest Adoption</strong></a>, reference ASRM 0021.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h1>ADOPTED!</h1>
<p>Meet Sae Dee!!!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.aussierescueil.com/sae-dee-ns0880-5yo-blue-merle-female-australian-shepherd/sadie/" rel="attachment wp-att-5073"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-5073" title="sadie" src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/sadie-400x286.jpg" alt="Sae Dee" width="400" height="286" /></a></p>
<p>Sae Dee is a gorgeous 5yo blue merle female Australian Shepherd. She&#8217;s a &#8216;tweenie&#8217; Aussie, which means she’s bigger than a mini but smaller than a standard!  She&#8217;s the perfect size!  She&#8217;s got one blue eye and one chocolate eye, giving her a very unique look. Sae Dee loves people and isn’t shy about anything. She will gently stand up in front of you to be petted. Sae Dee is very interested in cats and will chase them, so a home without any cats is recommended, unless you feel capable of controlling the situation. Sae Dee seems fine with most other dogs as well. She loves to play with them.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.aussierescueil.com/sae-dee-ns0880-5yo-blue-merle-female-australian-shepherd/saedee/" rel="attachment wp-att-5074"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-5074" title="SaeDee" src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/SaeDee.bmp" alt="" width="456" height="307" /></a></p>
<p>Sae Dee is crate trained and actually enjoys spending her down time in her crate. She sleeps quietly through the night. Though if you didnt want to crate her, she does just wonderfully left loose! Sae Dee doesnt chew or get into things and her foster family leaves her free to roam the house while they are away at work. Sae Dee is tennis ball and frisbee crazy!  She will bring the ball to you to throw for her until one of you gets tired. She loves to play and is very happy to hang out around the house. She&#8217;s an easy goinggirl whose fun to be around.</p>
<p>Sae Dee is fostering in Farmington, MN. Please fill out the <a href="http://www.ns4ar.org/ADOPTIONAPP.html">ADOPTION APPLICATION</a> to get started! Thank you for looking!</p>

<p>Merlin is an 8-10yo self blue merle Australian Shepherd male. We aren’t sure of his actual age. He is a standard size and weighs approx. 45lbs. He has a pretty blue fleck in one of his eyes and it gives him an overall &#8216;sorcerer&#8217;s&#8217; appearance. Merlin recently lost the love of his life, whom he&#8217;d been with for all of his 10 years. He was devastated, but he is beginning to pick up the pieces and learning to love life as a single man for the first time in his life.</p>
<p><a href="http://s204.photobucket.com/albums/bb206/Hollywooddunnit/?action=view&amp;current=Merlin-1083__3_.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i204.photobucket.com/albums/bb206/Hollywooddunnit/Merlin-1083__3_.jpg" alt="Photobucket" border="0" /></a></p>
<p>Merlin gets along great with other dogs, and even gets along with cats and children! He&#8217;s a sweet, mellow guy with a lot of years left in him!  Merlin is housebroken and crate trained already too! He is very quiet in his crate and will just hang out if you need him to. But he doesn’t get into trouble in the house. Merlin is hard of hearing in his senior years. He&#8217;s not completely deaf, but much of it is gone. But he&#8217;s still a fabulous guy. Merlin rides easily loose in a vehicle. If you are looking for a perfect family Aussie, Merlin is your guy!</p>
<p>Merlin is fostering in Champlin, MN. Please fill out the <a href="http://www.ns4ar.org/ADOPTIONAPP.html">ADOPTION APPLICATION</a> to get started!  Thank you for looking!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Wangaretta is a lethal white blue merle Australian Shepherd male. He is mostly white, with a few spots near his back end. He is both deaf and blind, but actually gets around quite well. I think it is easy to underestimate his abilities, but don’t let the lack of hearing and vision make you think less of him. He uses his nose a lot, and I noticed he has more trouble navigating in our backyard after a rain, so he must be highly scent dependent.</p>
<div id="attachment_4916" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 410px"><img class="size-medium wp-image-4916" title="Wangaratta NS1018" src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/Wangaratta-NS1018-400x378.jpg" alt="Wangaratta NS1018" width="400" height="378" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Wangaratta NS1018</p></div>
<p>He will come to vibration (we stomp our foot or clap loudly) and can also sit and down. He is so exceptionally smart, that I think he would out do Wanderoo if he wasn’t a little limited with the vision. He is also very laid back, mellow, and just a fluffy lover boy. I think he could definitely learn to follow your scent on a walk, and he is able to navigate a full flight of stairs with no problem. Because of his underdeveloped eyes, he might have to be watched in the sun, but other than that he is very healthy (and a terrific eater!).</p>
<div id="attachment_4915" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 410px"><img class="size-medium wp-image-4915" title="NS 1018 Wangaretta" src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/Mynie-Wangaratta-NS1018-B-400x265.jpg" alt="NS 1018 Wangaretta" width="400" height="265" /><p class="wp-caption-text">NS 1018 Wangaretta</p></div>
<div style="clear: both;">
<div id="attachment_5241" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 200px"><img class="size-full wp-image-5241" title="NS 1018 Wangaretta" src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/262577_153894784693205_145570595525624_306176_3890386_n.jpg" alt="NS 1018 Wangaretta" width="190" height="276" /><p class="wp-caption-text">NS 1018 Wangaretta</p></div>
</div>
<p>He is the biggest of the bunch- a week ago he was 15.1 pounds. I really think given his personality and his smarts he will make a very, very good pet, so don’t count him out. Unlike most Aussies, he would likely do well in a small house or apartment. He spends lots of time sitting in my lap as I work on the computer- and that might become a problem when he reaches his full 45-50 pounds!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>ADOPTED</p>
<p>Wogonda is a very sweet and somewhat timid lethal white blue merle Australian Shepherd male. He has lots of blue merle spots, so he resembles his sister Wanderoo quite a bit, without the colored ear.  He has good vision in one eye and some vision in the other, and of course he is deaf. </p>
<p><a href="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/Meany-or-Wodanga-NS1017-A.jpg"><img src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/Meany-or-Wodanga-NS1017-A-400x265.jpg" alt="Lethal White Australian Shepherd" title="Meany or Wodanga NS1017 A" width="400" height="265" class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-4900" /></a></p>
<p>He is very laid back, but will allow Wanderoo to lead him into trouble. Being timid, he tends to be quite vocal when out of his element or afraid- his howl is loud, but he is very quickly comforted with a quick hug or bet of reassurance. Even though he is timid, he is a very quick learner- again, he can come, sit and down already.  He would be best with a gentle older dog rather than another rambunctious dog, and a home that is not super active but somewhat active. , He would be a good dog to walk with and take around town. He seems to be a good candidate for riding in the car, and if it involves a stop at the Ice Cream shop, well all the better!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2><span style="color: #ff0000;">ADOPTED</span></h2>
<p>Mia (#0196) is a 6-8 month old red-tri female Australian Shepherd. Her vaccinations are up to date, she has been spayed and is on heartworm &amp; flea/tick preventative. She currently weighs in at 28 pounds and could possibly get up to 35 pounds when she is fully grown. She is completely housebroken and will pace back and forth from where you are to the door to let you know she needs to go outside. She kennels very well and is able to go without accidents for 8+ hours if necessary.</p>
<p>[frame_center src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/Mia-large-300x400.jpg" href="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/Mia-large.jpeg"]Protege 0196 Mia[/frame_center]</p>
<p>Mia has lots of energy and feeds off of good praise (and treats!). However, she is definitely a puppy still. If you are untidy, she is very “helpful” at picking things up. She has lots of toys to chew on and play with, but she will occasionally find your shoe or sock more interesting. For this reason, she is not yet reliable at being unattended for long periods of time.</p>
<p>She is very smart and picks things up pretty easily. She knows “sit”, “stay”, “lay down” and &#8220;hand&#8221;. She would much rather be on the couch or bed next to you and will jump on you when greeting, but is learning that “off” is not a bad thing. She will occasionally do some alarm barking so we are working on “no bark”. We had a hard time taking walks at first because she liked to pull but has responded very well to the Halti.</p>
<p>We have yet to meet a dog or person that she hasn’t liked, but she can be shy at first when around multiple dogs. She does okay off-leash and with recalls, but she becomes easily distracted when her nose hits the ground. She is also very fast when it comes to play time and would probably do best with a fenced in yard. She currently lives with two cats and shows no interest in them unless they are playing and she wants in on the action.</p>
<p>Here is a video of Mia playing with her foster sister:</p><object width="400" height="325"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/fA-aoijRvHc&amp;ap=%2526fmt%3D18" /><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><embed wmode="opaque" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/fA-aoijRvHc&amp;ap=%2526fmt%3D18" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="400" height="325"></embed></object><p>Mia had distichia, or eyelashes that were in an abnormal location along the eyelids. She has had surgery to remove many of the eyelashes that were rubbing on her eyes and causing irritation. She has responded very well and has not let it slow her down; this should not be a problem long-term. Mia is currently being fostered in Cedar Rapids. If you might be interested in learning more about Mia, please email Jayne at <a href="mailto:mcjayne@yahoo.com">mcjayne@yahoo.com</a>.</p>
<p>While we welcome your questions about this dog, all adopters are required to complete a <a href="http://protegerescue.org/ProtegeForms/Protege-Adoption-Application.doc">Protege Adoption Application</a> before being considered to adopt a Protege dog; our adoption fee is $200.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Meet Cody, a 3 year old blue merle male Australian Shepherd, he was one of the first Aussies I had ever rescued when I was the rep for ARPH in Illinois. Cody was always low energy and always gentle. He had the face of a wise man and the soul of an every greater man. Katie and her husband met Cody and took him all the way from Chicago to Minneapolis one day and decided he was the Aussie for them.</p>
<div id="attachment_4798" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 410px"><img src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/Cody-2-400x298.jpg" alt="Cody Giving His Love" title="Cody Giving His Love" width="400" height="298" class="size-medium wp-image-4798" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Cody Giving His Love</p></div>
<p>Cody was always shy of the camera and would turn his head or hide when he thought he was getting his picture taken, we thought he might have been a dog from a home in the witness protection program, but we did get pictures and he is a beautiful Australian Shepherd.</p>
<div id="attachment_4797" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 410px"><img src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/Cody-1-400x265.jpg" alt="Cody On Squirrel Patrol" title="Cody On Squirrel Patrol" width="400" height="265" class="size-medium wp-image-4797" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Cody On Squirrel Patrol</p></div>
<p>Over the weekend of the 8th of May, Cody began to not eat and was becoming lethargic, and having trouble breathing, within just 2 days the worst news of all came, he had cancer and it was impacting his lungs and ability to breath, sadly he passed away on the operating table and now were joy and happiness rained, is a large hole where his presence is no longer.</p>
<p>We all will miss this gentle man, and know he is waiting at the bridge to be reunited with Katie and her family.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>Adopted</h2>
<p>Redcliffe (also known as Ruby) is a senior Red Tri Australian Shepherd female who is around 11+ years old, who weighs around 50 pounds. She is the result of her owner passing away and being left alone and afraid.</p>
<p>[frame_center src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/Ruby-Senior-08-400x300.jpg" href="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/Ruby-Senior-08.jpg"]NS 0996 Redcliffe (Ruby)[/frame_center]</p>
<p>Redcliffe is a low energy, Velcro Australian Shepherd. She can get around just fine but may need a boost into the car. She walks great on leash, and is respectful of other dogs. She loves to be with you and will sit at your side while reading or keep you company while in the garden. Redcliffe is a little hard of hearing but that does not stop her or keep her from staying in range. </p>
<p>[frame_center src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/Ruby-Senior-12-400x300.jpg" href="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/Ruby-Senior-12.jpg"]NS 0996 Redcliffe (Ruby)[/frame_center]</p>
<p>Redcliffe is ready for a home that would let her finish her years in peace, a home with rough or overly playful dogs would be too much for her at this age in her life. She would do fine when the grandkids came over and she is on Proin to help control her bladder.</p>
<p>[frame_center src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/Ruby-Senior-11-400x300.jpg" href="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/Ruby-Senior-11.jpg"]NS 0996 Redcliffe (Ruby)[/frame_center]</p>

<p>Wagga Wagga is one of those perfect dogs, rides quietly in the car, walks excellent for a puppy on a leash and she gets along with everyone in the home, other dogs, the cat and the Guinea Pig, she will pounce on the cat, but all in good fun, she will always be tracking the cat but again to engage in play. She does try to heard the older female dog in the home, so her herd instincts are strong.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Meet this gentle female Australian Shepherd Blue Merle with a tail. Pumpkin is around 50+ pounds and is the result of her previous owner having to enter a retirement home, and she could not join her, Pumpkin was taken to a shelter and was very upset and depressed.</p>
<p>[frame_center src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/Pumpkin-Indiana-4-400x225.jpg" href="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/Pumpkin-Indiana-4.jpg"]NS 0995 Pumpkin[/frame_center]</p>
<p>Now that Pumpkin is in a foster home, she is now returning to a happy, and content girl, who has years left to show love and affection to whom ever will allow her to finish her years content and happy.</p>
<p>[frame_center src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/Pumpkin-2-400x221.jpg" href="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/Pumpkin-2.jpeg"]NS 0995 Pumpkin[/frame_center]</p>
<p>Pumpkin walks perfect on a leash and LOVES to go for walks, tolerates other dogs, is good around children and will stay off furniture and the beds. She is afraid of thunderstorms and as such will try ti go under the bed, showing only her tail as proof she is around, but when you say her name, the tail becomes animated and shows her understanding you are there for her.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Holly (#0193) is an adorable red-tri puppy with beautiful hazel eyes. She weighs all of 13 pounds, is about 4 months old, and is doing so well after a sad start in life. Little Holly was saved by a rescue group after they saw her exhibited at an exotic animal show in Iowa. This group then turned Holly over to Protege and we are very glad to have her in our care. Her skin was dry and flaky and her fur was course. She was full of worms and dehydrated. After being examined by our vet, it was determined that the condition of Holly&#8217;s coat was from lack of nutrition and her poor paws were splayed from spending too much time in a wire cage. Despite her rough start, Holly is a sweet, mild-mannered, funny girl who wants nothing more than to romp with her doggie companions and snuggle up next to humans for some quiet attention.</p>
<p>[frame_center src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/Holly-Large-400x300.jpg" href="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/Holly-Large.jpeg"]Protege #0193 Holly[/frame_center]</p>
<p>Holly&#8217;s feet are coming along nicely; in fact, they are very endearing&#8230;.a little big for her petite body but maybe she&#8217;ll grow into them &#8211; and she is gaining muscle mass and much needed weight. She loves running around the yard, chases balls and toys, gets along great with dogs of all sizes and genders and LOVES kids. While she remains a bit cautious about new people, she warms up very quickly and prefers being touched on the bottom of her chin instead of being patted on top of her head. She is submissive and shares food, toys and love in a very busy household. She eats like a champ and has not had any accidents in our home. Despite her time in a wire cage, she welcomes a comfy crate and is not uncomfortable being in one for bedtime and while the humans are away. Holly can maintain a clean crate for up to 6 hours during the day and all night long. She doesn&#8217;t whimper unless she needs out to go potty.</p>
<p>Holly is one of the nicest, easiest fosters I&#8217;ve ever had in my home. She curls up in a little ball on the couch at night to get her loving from our 10 year old son and she gives kisses willingly. Holly&#8217;s sweet personality will win you over. Her forever home would likely include another canine companion to continue to improve her confidence and show her the ropes at her new home. She is gentle and kind to kids. She would do best with older kids who will respect her sweet demeanor and small size. She is ready to be spayed in a few weeks and will receive her rabies shot then as well. Holly is fostered in Marion, Iowa.</p>
<p>There are additional photos, including several &#8220;before&#8221; and &#8220;after&#8221; shots, and three cute videos of Holly at the Protege website for your viewing pleasure:  <a href="http://protegerescue.org">http://protegerescue.org</a></p>
<p>If you might be interested in learning more about this dog, please email Jayne at <a href="mailto:mcjayne@yahoo.com">mcjayne@yahoo.com</a>. While we welcome your questions about this dog, all adopters are required to complete a <a href="http://protegerescue.org/ProtegeForms/Protege%20Adoption%20Application.doc">Protege Adoption Application</a> before being considered to adopt a Protege dog; our adoption fee is $200.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Oakley is a 1.5yo Aussie mix. He&#8217;s a beautiful blue merle guy who is appx 50lbs. Between the couple shedding times, fall and spring, his hair loss is easily manageable. Oakley does not mind baths and the groomers rave about him! His coat is sooo soft and shiny. You will love touching him. Oakley knows basic commands like no, sit, drop, lay down, shake. He&#8217;s actually really relaxed when the house is calm and is often ready for and knows bed time. He&#8217;s the perfect alarm clock. If your alarm clock failed he would know and wake you up on the nose. Does still get excited and jumpy when people come to the door but I think it can be fixed with a little proper direction. He doesnt do it to me because he knows I wont allow it so I know he has the concept down. Is a MAJOR lover and is easy to love. He likes to be in close proximity to you or touching you when he lays down. He will often put his head on your lap and just lovingly stare at you and if you let him he will curl up on your lap just to be next to you. Have not seen him with small children but I think if he is taught boundaries he will be fine. Has never pottied in the house and will often go to the door to be let out. Oakley can be trusted loose in the house and does not destroy the house when you are gone, but he may sit on the couch. He does not have a problem with kennels and understands its a safe place. Oakley loves to fetch but needs a little coaxing to bring the ball back yet. If you are sitting he will bring it to you but if you are standing and waiting he thinks its a game. </p>
<p>[frame_center src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/Oakley1-400x300.jpg" href="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/Oakley1.jpeg"]NS 0640 Oakley[/frame_center]</p>
<p>[frame_center src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/Oakley-400x300.jpg" href="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/Oakley.jpeg"]NS 0640 Oakley[/frame_center]</p>
<p>Oakley gets along great with other dogs with no problem and loves to play with them. He will play for hours if another dog is willing to do the same. He has no problem if you get into his food while hes eating or if you put your hand near a treat. Tested this many times with no problem. Very trusting. Walks well on leash with occasional pull. Is alert at night when he needs to be. Loves toys-kong is best because they last more than a day. He often rolls on his back, legs spread and chews on his toy with no care in the world! Oakley sleeps with his head under couch or bed and gives a deep sigh when lights are out. Quite comical! Right now he spends most of his times loose in doors with free access to back yard now that it is warmer out. Have noticed a couple shallow holes in the yard but he does not consistently do it. I think he ran out of places to hide his bones. Does not have a problem being out in the snow for extended periods of time as long as he has something to do and its not freezing. He rides in a car very calmly without barking. He is extremely smart and wants to please you. Oakley is fostering in Plymouth, MN.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Meet Prince, a black tri Australian Shepherd, who was given a pretty crappy deal in life, You see Prince was left at a shelter, and spent much of his time in a crate. Along came Micci, who help rescue him, and when he was teased one to many times and bit, he then had a death sentence, but again Micci saw his purpose, and she adopted him.</p>
<div id="attachment_4694" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 202px"><img class="size-full wp-image-4694" title="Prince" src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/PART_1301751972570.jpeg" alt="Prince" width="192" height="256" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Prince</p></div>

<p>Sadly Prince from all the years of abuse and neglect had to leave, and now he is at the bridge, awaiting Micci&#8217;s arrival.</p>
<p>We would like to thank Micci for finding this little man at a shelter, and adopting him from them, and then dedicating her time to rescue, to make the memory of Prince live on.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h1>ADOPTED! </h1>
<p>Meet Seir, a 1 year old blue merle lethal white female, who weighs around 15 pounds. Seir still has a beautiful full, flowing tail. Seir gets along well with other dogs and once she has settled in will play and run.</p>
<div id="attachment_4535" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 410px"><img src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/P3200020-400x346.jpg" alt="Seir 1 Year Old Mini" title="Seir 1 Year Old Mini" width="400" height="346" class="size-medium wp-image-4535" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Seir 1 Year Old Mini</p></div>
<p>Seir will need time to warm up at first, as she was used as a breeder dog, and since she didn&#8217;t work out, was on the list to go away, we ended up with her and she needs to learn to trust us humans again.</p>
<div id="attachment_4537" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 410px"><img src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/P3200134-400x227.jpg" alt="Seir 1 Year Old Mini" title="Seir 1 Year Old Mini" width="400" height="227" class="size-medium wp-image-4537" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Seir 1 Year Old Mini</p></div>
<p>Seir is deaf, and is slowly learning hand signals and is also housebroken, walks on a leash and is awaiting a great home.</p>
<div id="attachment_4536" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 410px"><img src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/P3200022-400x232.jpg" alt="Seir 1 Year Old Mini" title="Seir 1 Year Old Mini" width="400" height="232" class="size-medium wp-image-4536" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Seir 1 Year Old Mini</p></div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Meet Winnie (#0188)! She is a 4 year old blue merle Australian Shepherd who loves to fetch! She is very obedient and would make the perfect addition to an active home with kids. Winnie came to Protégé overweight; she continues to lose weight and since she loves to be active, this is going very well. At this writing, she was at 45 lbs., but she will be on the smaller side when she gets to her ideal weight.</p>
<p>[frame_center src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/Winnie-large.jpeg" href="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/Winnie-large.jpeg"]Protege #0188 Winnie[/frame_center]</p>
<p>Winnie is crate trained and likes having her crate in new environments, however she does not need it, and has never had problems roaming her foster parents&#8217; house when they are away.</p>
<p>[frame_center src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/Winnie-large1.jpeg" href="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/Winnie-large1.jpeg"]Protege #0188 Winnie[/frame_center]</p>
<p>While Winnie loves children and people. Though she tended to growl at other dogs when she first came into the program, Winnie has been doing very well learning to get along. She is great with the neighbor dog, and now is even enjoying trips to the dog park! A game of fetch is best when shared with another dog you can race! She&#8217;d probably still prefer to be the only dog in the home, but if you socialize with other dogs and their famlies, Winnie can be a good choice.</p>
<p>Though sShe growled at her foster parents’ cats for the first couple days, after working with her she now ignores them, or sniffs curiously.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><object width="400" height="325"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/12B2FZKWkS4&amp;ap=%2526fmt%3D18" /><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><embed wmode="opaque" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/12B2FZKWkS4&amp;ap=%2526fmt%3D18" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="400" height="325"></embed></object></p>
<p>Winnie knows many tricks, and is always eager to learn more. Currently she knows come, sit, shake, lay-down, stay/wait, “go get it” (can be applied to a variety of things), “give it to me,” “Bring it closer,” “go find it,” “kennel up,” “go potty” and give kisses to name a few. She is awesome at catching a ball &#8212; we counted 84 times in a row with no misses on day! Winnie loves about any sort of ball toy and will come with some of her most special, if well-worn, ones.</p>
<p>Winnie is excellent off-leash and stays close. When playing in the field near their home her foster parents can tell her to go home and she goes to the door. They can also tell her to leave her ball outside and she puts it away outside.</p>
<p>As you can see from her video, Winnie really wants to get adopted! Winnie is up-to-date on her vaccinations and is ready to go to her forever home. Willie will add a ton of fun to your family. She is being fostered in Iowa City. If you might be interested in learning more about this dog, please email Jayne at mcjayne@yahoo.com. While we welcome your questions about this dog, all adopters are required to complete a Protege Adoption Application before being considered to adopt a Protege dog; our adoption fee is $200.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Meet John Adams, a purebred, and papered 3 year old black tri Australian Shepherd male, he is a bit overweight, by 20 pounds, he weighs around 68 pounds, but he is all love, all caring and all about his family. We call him Panda, and he is all that as well, one big Panda bear.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Meet Holland, a 2 year old black bi female Australian Shepherd. Holland is a very active and very sure of her self Aussie.</p>
<p>[frame_center src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/Holly1.jpg" href="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/Holly1.jpg"]NS 0624 Holland (Holly)[/frame_center]</p>
<p>Holland was adopted but came back because the family found out they had allergies to dogs, it was a very painful thing to return her to rescue. </p>
<p>[frame_center src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/Holly-6-300x400.jpg" href="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/Holly-6.jpg"]NS 0624 Holland (Holly)[/frame_center]</p>
<p>Holland gets along with other dogs well, but she does tend to be a little alpha and we suggest if you have another dog they are on the submissive side, but as always you should bring your dog along to see if they are compatible.</p>
<p>[frame_center src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/Holly-4-300x400.jpg" href="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/Holly-4.jpg"]NS 0624 Holland (Holly)[/frame_center]</p>
<p>Holland is actually Holly and she has great recall, walks great on a leash and rides well in a car and is housebroken. </p>
<p>If you feel this little black magic of a girl is for you, she is being fostered in St. Charles Illinois, then get that application completed today at <a href="http://www.ns4ar.org/adoptproc.HTML">New Spirit 4 Aussie Rescue</a>.<strong> Reference NS 0674</strong>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Sailor is a gorgeous red merle male Australian Shepherd. He&#8217;s about 40lbs, a year and a half old and is a love of a dog!  He&#8217;s very mellow and easy going. Sailor came from a hoarding situation where he literally lived the first year of his life in a barn. But he&#8217;s made amazing progress in his foster home and they report that he is very appreciative of having someone to love him and play with him every day!  Sailor loves squeaky toys and will do just about anything for them. Never mind the treats, give him a squeaky toy!  Sailor is pretty much housebroken and he loves having his crate as his own personal space. Leave the crate door open and you might find him in there napping all on his own.  He enjoys being able to hang out with his people on the couch or the bed, but he will sleep on the floor if thats where you want him. He is also a bit of a sock bandit, and will steal one and hide it under his pillow!</p>

<p>Sailor is fostering on a farm that has cattle and he&#8217;s has shown little interest in them. He&#8217;s not afraid of them, but he also isnt going to go &#8216;herd&#8217; them.  He likes joining his foster family to help with chores, and he can be trusted off leash and he wont go anywhere.  Sailor is nervous around children under 5yo and would do best in a home with older kids. He&#8217;s not a big fan of &#8216;hubbub&#8217;.  He is a typical Aussie watch dog and will bark at strangers that approach his family, especially if they are men. He seems to gravitate towards women over men, but will settle down with just about anybody with some time. Training overall is going well. He knows sit, stay, off, no, hey!, be nice, quiet, bed, and shake. Still working on come, he mostly just likes you to whistle or call his name. It&#8217;s also been noted that Sailor&#8217;s vision in the dark is not too keen. But it doesnt seem to affect him too much! </p>
<p>Sailor is fostering in Ulen Minnesota. Complete an application at <a href="http://www.ns4ar.org/adoptproc.HTML">New Spirit 4 Aussie Rescue</a>.<strong> Reference NS 0869</strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Meet Sola a 12 week old red merle female Lethal White. She is deaf but sees just fine and will require a family that understands the needs of a deaf dog. We would also like to see her go into a home with another dog so she has someone to feed off of for her reactions.</p>

<p>Her foster mom says she is smart as a Harvard Grad (is there such a thing;) and she has already in her short time with Mom learned sit and down in one day. She is crate trained and is working on potty manners. She is a puppy and of course gets distracted with play.</p>

<p>She is being taught leash manners and not to nip when walking, she has a strong herd drive to her. She also is learning to share the kitchen at dinner time and should be trained to be respectful once she is ready for adoption.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Meet Taree, a 3 month old blue merle female Lethal White Australian Shepherd. She will probably grow up to be about 40 pounds. She is deaf and will need a family that wants to work with a dog with a disability.</p>

<p>Taree is a very strong willed girl, she does guard her food and will need patience to over come that problem, she also tends to be selfish with toys, again this is a resource issue. Taree rides well in a car and is working on leash manners. She does get along with other dogs, but we suggest you bring the family dog to make sure they are willing to play together.</p>
