			<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 sweet little Maggie, a 8 week old lethal white blue merle female Australian Shepherd. She came to us after being removed from a situation that was not ideal, with the summers 100+ heat, she had only a little bowl of water, and she was covered in fleas. A kind Samaritan saw her crawl out from under a blanket. She was starved and had been taken from her mother at 4 weeks old.</p>
<div id="attachment_5559" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 410px"><img src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/Maggie-1-400x307.jpg" alt="Maggie Puppy 10 Weeks Old Blue Merle Female Lethal White Australian Shepherd Illinois" title="Maggie Puppy 10 Weeks Old Blue Merle Female Lethal White Australian Shepherd Illinois" width="400" height="307" class="size-medium wp-image-5559" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Maggie Puppy 10 Weeks Old Blue Merle Female Lethal White Australian Shepherd Illinois</p></div>
<div id="attachment_5560" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 410px"><img src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/Maggie-2-400x300.jpg" alt="Maggie Puppy 10 Weeks Old Blue Merle Female Lethal White Australian Shepherd Illinois" title="Maggie Puppy 10 Weeks Old Blue Merle Female Lethal White Australian Shepherd Illinois" width="400" height="300" class="size-medium wp-image-5560" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Maggie Puppy 10 Weeks Old Blue Merle Female Lethal White Australian Shepherd Illinois</p></div>
<p>Maggie is what comes from the breeding of 2 blue merle or red merles and the end result is a puppy who is mostly white, usually deaf and sometimes blind. Maggie is just deaf, and seems to see just fine. She has striking blue eyes, she loves to be held and snuggle with anyone that will let her.</p>
<div id="attachment_5561" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 410px"><img src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/Maggie-3-400x300.jpg" alt="Maggie Puppy 10 Weeks Old Blue Merle Female Lethal White Australian Shepherd Illinois" title="Maggie Puppy 10 Weeks Old Blue Merle Female Lethal White Australian Shepherd Illinois" width="400" height="300" class="size-medium wp-image-5561" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Maggie Puppy 10 Weeks Old Blue Merle Female Lethal White Australian Shepherd Illinois</p></div>
<div id="attachment_5562" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 410px"><img src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/Maggie-4-400x300.jpg" alt="Maggie Puppy 10 Weeks Old Blue Merle Female Lethal White Australian Shepherd Illinois" title="Maggie Puppy 10 Weeks Old Blue Merle Female Lethal White Australian Shepherd Illinois" width="400" height="300" class="size-medium wp-image-5562" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Maggie Puppy 10 Weeks Old Blue Merle Female Lethal White Australian Shepherd Illinois</p></div>
<p>Maggie will stand her own with the big dogs in the house, loves to drag bones as big or some twice as big as she is. She loves to herd at the age of 8 years old, so be ready for all your cats to be rounded up in a hurry, or the kids in the neighborhood.</p>
<p>Maggie is being fostered in Bloomington Illinois. To adopt this soft, caring little girl, complete an application at <a href="http://www.australianshepherdrescuemidwest.org/adoption-application"><strong>Australian Shepherd Rescue Midwest</strong><strong></strong></a>. Reference ASRM 0020</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h1>ADOPTED!</h1>
<p>This is <strong>Faith (#0208)</strong>. She is a red-tri Mini Aussie estimated to be around 1-1/2 to 2 years old and weighs in at 24 pounds. She was a stray from southeast Iowa and there&#8217;s no other history on her. When she came to her foster home, her coat was damaged from extreme scratching and chewing at herself. After a visit to the veterinarian, worming and being put on a quality food, her coat has started to get some shine to it and has become less rough and itchy. She is up to date on vaccines and has been started on heartworm and flea/tick preventative.</p>
<div id="attachment_5500" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 410px"><a href="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Faith-Large.jpeg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-5500" title="Faith 2 Year Old Red Tri Mini Female Australian Shepherd Iowa" src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Faith-Large-400x265.jpg" alt="Faith 2 Year Old Red Tri Mini Female Australian Shepherd Iowa" width="400" height="265" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Faith 2 Year Old Red Tri Mini Female Australian Shepherd Iowa</p></div>
<p>Faith appears to have belonged to someone at some point because she had already been spayed, knows &#8220;sit&#8221; and &#8220;down&#8221; (though we are working on improving them), and had been semi-kennel trained. She either goes with her foster mom to work or is kenneled during the day as she has had a few accidents in the house when left out, but has not had any while kenneled. She does voice her opinion about being kenneled to start, but quiets down after a while. At night time she would much rather be in the bed with you, but finds it suitable to be kenneled as long as it is in the same room as you.</p>
<p>She gets along well with her foster sister except when it&#8217;s play time. Faith isn&#8217;t really into playing and would probably do better with a dog of similar attributes or an older dog. She is definitely into being a couch potato and is quite content with being at your feet or on the couch alongside you. She is very good at being a shadow and will follow you from room to room. The cats that she lives with know how to put a dog in their place and so she shows no interest in them unless they are running around. She requires a home with a fenced yard or someone who is OK with having her on a leash at all times as she needs a great deal of improvement on her call back. Her foster family has a tie-out for her for when she goes outside. She will pull during walks and has a sensitive trachea, so she has become accustomed to the Gentle Leader and walks very well now.</p>
<p>When Faith first entered her foster home, she was extremely shy and was easily frightened by the littlest thing. She is still unsure of others during intimate situations and will bark and try to move away. Her foster family is working on socialization and she seems to do better in larger groups of people. She has made several trips to the pet stores and has done very well with passing people and other pets as well as going up to others and sniffing them. With continuation of the socialization, we think she will become a social butterfly in no time.</p>

<p>Faith is currently being fostered in Cedar Rapids. 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 title="Protege Adoption Application" href="http://protegerescue.org/protegeapp.html" target="_blank">Protege Adoption Application</a> before being considered to adopt a Protege dog; our adoption fee is $200.</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><strong>Tebow (Protege #0200)</strong> is a 2 year old black-tri Australian Shepherd. He is a large boy at about 60 lbs, but he doesn&#8217;t let that stop him from snuggling when invited! Tebow was reliquished to Protege Canine Rescue by his owners, who were moving and could not take a dog with them. Tebow&#8217;s owners were very loving and gave Tebow a good life &#8211; which is what he is looking for in a new owner. Tebow is neutered and up to date on all shots.</p>
<div id="attachment_4947" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 313px"><img class="size-medium wp-image-4947" title="Tebow Protege 0200" src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/Tebow-large-303x400.jpg" alt="Tebow Protege 0200" width="303" height="400" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Tebow Protege 0200</p></div>
<p>Tebow is great both inside and outside the house as well as on car rides. He loves every dog he meets and is good with new people. Tebow is still learning not to jump up, but seems to learn fast and is only jumping now when he&#8217;s VERY excited after his foster mom comes home from a long day at work. Tebow would prefer to go to a home where there is another dog for him to play with, or a large area for him to run. He is a big dog with a lot of energy to burn, but he does know how to calm down and relax inside the house.</p>
<p>At first Tebow would jump on his foster mom&#8217;s furniture, but after only two reminders he has stayed off the couches and beds completely. He likes to sleep in the bedroom, on the floor beside the bed at night. Tebow sleeps through the night and doesn&#8217;t ever fuss. He is completely housebroken and paces at the door when he needs to go out.</p>
<p>Tebow loves to play with toys, other dogs and people. He is great at fetch and sometimes likes to tug. His previous owners generally left him outside in a fenced area during the day when they were at work &#8211; but as his foster mom quickly discovered, Tebow can jump a 4 ft chain link fence with no problem. Tebow however does not attempt to jump fences when his foster mom is outside with him taking care of the yard, picking up poop, reading or playing with him. His foster mom has also purchased a 50&#8242; tie-out to put Tebow on for 20-30 minutes at a time so he can go outside without her and still play with his foster brothers and sisters in the yard without his foster mom worrying about him jumping ship! (A tie-out is NOT a long-term solution for Tebow.) Once he gets to know his foster mom better, she believes he probably wouldn&#8217;t stray far if he did jump. She saw him with his previous owners and they didn&#8217;t even keep him on a leash. Tebow stayed right with them and hung on their every word! He&#8217;s clearly a dog who likes to please his owner and is very trainable.</p>
<p>Tebow has not been in a crate/kennel often, but has done well transitioning to staying in one for short periods of time (2-5 hours) with his foster mom. The first morning Tebow was alone in his crate he barked quite a bit &#8211; but his foster mom has worked with him and the next two mornings Tebow did a great job and was very quiet. Tebow would be a GREAT dog for almost any owner, but he would prefer to go to a home with an active family that would take him to the park, dog<br />
park, on bike rides or walks. Tebow knows &#8220;sit&#8221;, &#8220;down&#8221; and &#8220;come&#8221;.</p>
<p>Tebow is currently being fostered in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. If you might be interested in learning more about him, please email Jayne at <a href="mailto:mcjayne@yahoo.com" target="_blank">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-Adoption-Application.doc" target="_blank">Protege Adoption Application</a> before being considered to adopt a Protege dog; our adoption fee is $200.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Meet Red Rock, a 2 year old red merle male Australian Shepherd. Red Rock is around 45 pounds and is probably a good candidate for agility if you can work on his focus. Red Rock is what we would call a bullet proof Aussie.</p>

<div style="clear:both;"></div>
<p>Red Rock loves going on walks, he loves rides in the car, possibly his nirvana? He is great with other dogs and ignores cats and loves everyone he meets and thinks the dog park is just the bomb! He is house broken, treat motivated and has a great recall to his name (Rocky). Red Rock is also very velcro to whom ever he has decided is his leader.</p>

<div style="clear:both;"></div>
<p>He does have a few dislikes, don&#8217;t we all? He doesn&#8217;t enjoy the crate though he will go in when it&#8217;s required, he wants to be near a human. He is a little bit of a picky eater, and will turn his nose up to certain foods. He hasn&#8217;t mastered playing with toys but is all about pleasing you.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>ADOPTED</strong></p>
<p>Meet Bootsie, a older black tri Australian Shepherd we had helped rescue from an elderly person who was no longer able to care for her. Bootsie was excellent when I met her and she was all set and ready to jump into the back seat of my car, and rode excellent all the way to meet her new foster family.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/Bootsie-3.jpg"><img src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/Bootsie-3-400x265.jpg" alt="Black Tri Australian Shepherd Bootsie" title="Black Tri Australian Shepherd Bootsie" width="400" height="265" class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-4923" /></a></p>
<p>Boostie is now ith the MARS rescue group, they specialize in mini Aussies and Bootsie is what I would consider a mini, she loves to play ball, chase frisbees and go for walks. When you first meet this lady you would think she won&#8217;t run to catch a treat but that is not the case, she is all action undert that exterior.</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[<p>ADOPTED</p>
<p>Wanderoo is a lethal white blue merle female who will grow to around 45-50 pounds. She has a docked tail and is covered with blue merle markings.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/Eenie-Wanderoo-NS120-A.jpg"><img src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/Eenie-Wanderoo-NS120-A-400x265.jpg" alt="Wanderoo NS120 Blue Merle Aussie" title="Eenie Wanderoo NS120 A" width="400" height="265" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-4903" /></a></p>
<p>She is deaf, but sees just fine. She has one black ear and lots of spots. She is as sweet as can be- loves to cuddle and lick your face and is just all sweetness. She is also exceptionally smart (will come, sit and down already). Because she is so smart, she tends to get herself into a bit of trouble- she likes to escape through the fence (and every time I think I have her outwitted she wins again!). The good news is she sticks around and doesn’t wander TOO much. She does seem to find each and every burr in the woods and get it into her fur.  </p>
<p>[frame_left src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/Eenie-Wanderoo-NS120-400x300.jpg" href="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/Eenie-Wanderoo-NS120.jpg"]NS 1020 Wanderoo[/frame_left]</p>

<div style="clear:both;"></div>
<p>She can find any contraband in the house (electrical cords, etc.), and is maybe a little too adventuresome for her own good. </p>
<p>She is definitely the leader of the litter! She will be more active than the others. She would make a great agility or obedience dog. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>ADOPTED!</strong> Rosalie is a 1 year old lethal white Australian Shepherd who is deaf, with maybe a limited ability to hear, and has her vision though it is less then a full sighted Aussie. Rosalie is a very trusting soul, she gives you 100% of her faith and lets you add or take that trust away.</p>

<p>Rosalie is a great companion, she loves attention and loves to roll on her back and get the most Aussome belly rubs, she is said to stay there all day awaiting them. Rosalie gets along well with everyone and other dogs. She would be best with a fenced in yard and another dog as a companion to help her know when to alert or to know that there is another living thing in her world, you see like many lethal whites, companionship is a very important item in their lives.</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>Benjamin is a beautiful, loudly marked 1.5yo black tri MINI Australian Shepherd male. He is about 25lbs and won’t get any bigger. He looks bigger than he actually is because his fur is so thick and long and lush!</p>
<p>[frame_center src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/ben-400x266.jpg" href="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/ben.jpeg"]NS 0879 Benjamin[/frame_center]</p>
<p>He is good with other dogs and cats and actually seems more comfortable having another dog around. He was released from a retiring breeder and is very under socialized and is fearful in new situations, but it only takes a couple of days for him to readjust and then he turns into a total lover boy! He&#8217;s very sweet and while shy, he is desperate for love and affection. Ben loves being groomed and he will sit or lay calmly while you brush him. He enjoys his crate and feels safe there. He will sleep through the night without a single peep!</p>
<p>[frame_center src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/ben3-400x304.jpg" href="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/ben3.jpeg"]NS 0879 Benjamin[/frame_center]</p>

<p>Ben has already made huge strides in his foster home. The first day he was very fearful and would freeze in fear. But after bonding over a grooming session outside on a beautiful day, he will now seek out his foster mom and dad for pets and love. He loves being close to his people and he really enjoys being a lap dog! He doesnt protest at being hugged and will fall asleep right on your lap. He will high five (or ten!) when you hold up your hand. We are working on commands, leash training and housebreaking.</p>
<p>[frame_center src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/ben1-400x295.jpg" href="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/ben1.jpeg"]NS 0879 Benjamin[/frame_center]</p>
<p>This gorgeous little man will make somebody an awesome addition to the family. He loves women and men alike and will ask for attention freely, once he knows you will be nice to him. Benjamin is fostering in Blooming Prairie, MN. Complete an application at <a href="http://www.ns4ar.org/adoptproc.HTML">New Spirit 4 Aussie Rescue</a>, <strong>Reference NS 0879</strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h1>ADOPTED</h1>
<p>Meet Mildura, a 2 year old Australian Shepherd female. Mildura is a red trio and weighs around 45 pounds. Mildura is completely up to date on her shots and is house broken. When her foster family comes home from school or work, Mildura is always there to great them with squeals of delight and assume tail wags.</p>
<div id="attachment_5247" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 410px"><img class="size-medium wp-image-5247" title="NS 0987 Mildura" src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/Mildura-1-400x300.png" alt="NS 0987 Mildura" width="400" height="300" /><p class="wp-caption-text">NS 0987 Mildura</p></div>
<p>Mildura loves a special stuffed toy, a stuffed cow and loves to play chase the flashlight. Mildura is tolerant of other dogs but would probably be best as an only dog, though with the right training and attention should do fine in a multi-dog home.</p>
<div id="attachment_5248" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 410px"><img class="size-medium wp-image-5248" title="NS 0987 Mildura" src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/Mildura-2-400x294.png" alt="NS 0987 Mildura" width="400" height="294" /><p class="wp-caption-text">NS 0987 Mildura</p></div>
<p>Mildura loves car rides and to go for walks, she is learning not to pull on her leash and is crate trained. Mildura is like many Aussies that seem to develop a thunderphobia, she doesn&#8217;t bark, she just looks for her family to be near.</p>
<div id="attachment_5249" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 410px"><img class="size-medium wp-image-5249" title="NS 0987 Mildura" src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/Mildura-3-400x300.png" alt="NS 0987 Mildura" width="400" height="300" /><p class="wp-caption-text">NS 0987 Mildura</p></div>

			<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>
