ADOPTED: Protege #0191 Rally Mini Blue Merle Male Australian Shepherd Iowa

Posted on by
1

Rally (#0191) is a beautiful blue merle Mini-Aussie, with one blue and one brown eye. He is about 7 months old, is neutered, and is up to date on all shots. He is a bit chubby at 16 pounds and needs to lose a few pounds to get to his ideal weight.

Rally is a little shy when meeting someone new, but give him a treat and you’ve got a friend for life. He gets along great with other dogs and is fine with cats. He is a little timid around children.

Rally is housebroken and we are working on basic training. He knows how to sit, lie down, spin and shake! He does wonderfully on car rides, mostly just lays down in the seat next to you. He is just a very easy-going dog. He loves to go on walks and will follow you anywhere. Well, except to the bathroom: since he got a bath, he is a little timid of it. But is starting to venture in.

Rally is a very sweet and loving dog. He loves attention and cuddling. Here is a little video of Rally showing off his sociable cuteness:

His favorite toys are balls and nylon bones. Rally would be a great addition to your home. He is being fostered in Coralville.

Adopted: NS 0867 Cassie 2 Year Old Blue Merle Female Lethal White Mini Minnesota

Posted on by
Reply

Cassie is a very sweet and loving 1-2 year old lethal white female mini Australian Shepherd. Fortunately, neither her hearing nor vision has been affected by this, however (although given her age and puppy characteristics there are definitely days she’d argue otherwise :-) As her foster mom, I’d label is as more “selective” hearing.). Cassie only weighs about 20lbs. She has littered one set of puppies recently and is consequently not yet spayed, but will be prior to adoption.

[frame_center src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/Cassie_2-11.jpeg" href="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/Cassie_2-11.jpeg"]This is caption[/frame_center]

She’s a busy girl, who loves toys, bones, playing with other dogs, and chasing the squirrels outside, and the cat inside. She’s a very quick learner and does all she can to please you. You don’t need to teach her things twice, and she is definitely remorseful when she forgets. She’s learning the command “sit,” and is house and kennel-trained. She’s definitely a lover too and soaks up any and all attention you’ll give her. She plays well with children and will make her new family quite happy. Cassie is fostering in Minneapolis, MN.

ADOPTED: Protege #0188 Winnie 4 Year Old Blue Merle Australian Shepherd Female Iowa

Posted on by
Reply

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.

[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]

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’ house when they are away.

[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]

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’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.

Though sShe growled at her foster parents’ cats for the first couple days, after working with her she now ignores them, or sniffs curiously.

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 — 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.

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.

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.

Posted on by

Swan is a 1 year old red merle female Australian Shepherd who weighs around 40 pounds. Swan is very hi on her energy level, and has a strong prey drive, which she channels into chasing a frisbee or tennis ball.

Swan is being taught to walk on a leash better, but rides well in a car, she does chase the cat and seems to find it fun to play keep away from her foster family (we are working on that) but she is a loving girl (on her terms of course) and plays very well with other dogs, again her hi pre drive finds her playing very rough for a girl.

ADOPTED: NS 0726 Breezy 2 Year Old Red Tri Australian Shepherd Female Illinois

Posted on by

Breezy is a 36 pound red tri female about 2 years old. She is completely housebroken but is crated during the day while her foster parents are at work. She has the run of the house when they are home and at night. She gets along wonderfully with her foster siblings: an eight year old male Flat Coat/Gordon Setter mix, a 5 year old female Aussie and a 4 year old male Main Coon mix cat.

[frame_center src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/101_1610-400x300.jpg" href="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/101_1610.jpg"]NS 0726 Breezy[/frame_center]

Breezy is a very high energy dog and loves lots of activity like long walks and will play fetch until she drops. Her absolute favorite toy is a tennis ball. She is willing to play anytime anywhere but she also understands when play time is over and will settle down very quickly. Her foster mom has been working with her in basic agility, fly ball and rally obedience to keep her mentally and physically challenged. She is smart, very treat motivated and willing to learn anything you take the time to teach her. Breezy has even learned to jog on the treadmill.

[frame_center src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/100_1640-400x300.jpg" href="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/100_1640.jpg"]NS 0726 Breezy[/frame_center]

She has perfect house manners and other than following you like a shadow, you would never know she was there. Breezy walks well on a leash and loves to ride in the car. She willingly jumps in to go where ever you are going. She is not food, toy or crate possessive. She knows all her basic commands, sit, stay, down, come, shake, leave it and wait. Outside the home Breezy has never met a stranger; she accepts people and animals alike. Inside the home, her foster family is working on her trust issues with men.

[frame_center src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/Breezy-4-400x265.jpg" href="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/Breezy-4.jpg"]NS 0726 Breezy[/frame_center]

While she likes her foster dad, she likes him best seated or lying on the floor as standing intimidates her a bit. Because of her lack of confidence with men Breezy would be best suited to go to a home with previous dog experience and no small children, as she may become over-protective of the children. She could also benefit from an established dog in the home to continue to learn from. She is a very happy girl and a lot of fun.

Breezy is located in Ingleside Illinois. If you have room in your heart and home for this cutie please complete an application at New Spirit 4 Aussie Rescue today. Reference NS 0726.

ADOPTED: Protege #0185 Stella 1 Year Old Red Merle Female Australian Shepherd Iowa

Posted on by
Reply

Please meet pretty Stella (Protege #0185). Stella is a sweet red merle spayed female whose farmer owner called the shelter promising to shoot her if they did not pick her up. Go figure. Hard to imagine any reason in the world for that kind of stupidity. Anyway, the shelter did, and then contacted our group to take Stella in and find her a new home.

[frame_center src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Stella3.jpeg" href="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Stella3.jpeg"]Protege #0185 Stella[/frame_center]

You will love this girl: she is about one year old, around 35 lbs, has one brown and one blue eye, is completely housebroken, very flexible about new situations: enjoys playing with dogs, meeting dogs, meeting all people (especially if they will love her up and give her belly rubs), and is great with cats. She is good riding in the car and waits patiently. Stella is crate trained and goes in happily for a treat; however, she is completely dependable if left uncrated. Despite that she is quite young, she does not get into trouble. She enjoys playing with toys and so far only chews on appropriate stuff. She will chase a ball a little for pure fun, but probably isn’t going to be an intense fetch dog. Generally, she’ll only get on furniture when invited, though she’s regularly invited in her foster home.

[frame_center src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Stella2.jpeg" href="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Stella2.jpeg"]Protege #0185 Stella[/frame_center]

Stella is ready to be your perfect pet dog and companion and will love you without question. As you can see from her videos, she is full of fun and young dog energy, but she is very manageable and settles well when inside. She likes to jump up into the bay window at her foster home to look out, or up into your bed, and when you get home from work she will be all wiggles and squirms in her joy to see you.

[frame_center src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Stella1.jpeg" href="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Stella1.jpeg"]Protege #0185 Stella[/frame_center]

Stella is an enthusiastic partner and learner: she enjoys walks and does okay on leash, though pulls a bit more than she should; she is not hard to contain, though. She is learning some easy tricks using the clicker and now does sit and down. She has a lovely recall because she’d really rather be with you than doing anything else, and she loves doing things for treats. Stella rarely barks.

Stella is up-to-date on her vaccinations and is ready to go to her forever home. You will not regret making Stella a part of your family! Apply today! She is being fostered in Marion.

ADOPTED! NS 0869 Sailor 18 Month Old Red Merle male Australian Shepherd Minnesota

Posted on by
Reply

Sailor is a gorgeous red merle male Australian Shepherd. He’s about 40lbs, a year and a half old and is a love of a dog!  He’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’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!

Sailor is fostering on a farm that has cattle and he’s has shown little interest in them. He’s not afraid of them, but he also isnt going to go ‘herd’ 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’s not a big fan of ‘hubbub’.  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’s also been noted that Sailor’s vision in the dark is not too keen. But it doesnt seem to affect him too much!

    Seba loves people, she loves car rides, she walks great on a leash, ignores cats and plays with other dogs great. She will probably be an Aussie who is more on the mellow side of life, and look for human contact all the time, as most Australian Shepherds will do.

    Adopted: NS 0944 Toowoomba (Shadow) 2 Year Old Red Merle Australian Shepherd Male BLIND Illinois

    Meet Toowoomba, Shadow for short, because he is a shadow, he follows you everywhere, you see Toowoomba is blind, but you wouldn’t know it in the way he plays and interacts, and walks threw the house. Toowoomba is a red merle Australian Shepherd male and is around 2 years old and weighs around 50 pounds.

    [frame_center src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/Shadow-Toowoomba-1-400x300.jpg" href="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/Shadow-Toowoomba-1.jpg"]NS 0944 Toowoomba[/frame_center]

    Toowoomba came to only because the shelter felt he deserved a forever home, they love him and had no problem letting him stay, but what life is that to stay at a shelter the rest of your days? Toowoomba walks great on a leash, a little clicking and he falls right back in place, he rides great in a car and has no resource or food issues.

    [frame_center src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/Shadow-Toowoomba-4-225x400.jpg" href="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/Shadow-Toowoomba-4.jpg"]NS 0944 Toowoomba[/frame_center]

    Toowoomba gets along great with other dogs, in fact once he got the lay of the yard when he is playing you would swear he had all his sight! He is a delight for his foster family, and he is very smart and quick to please.

    ADOPTED: Hardy (Protege #0187) 1 1/2 Year Old Blue Merle Male Australian Shepherd Iowa

    Posted on by
    Reply

    Hardy (Protege #0187) is a beautiful blue merle boy with copper trim who is about 1-1/2 years old. He is up to date on all of his shots and will be neutered within the week.

    [frame_center src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Hardy-large-400x239.jpg" href="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Hardy-large.jpeg"]Hardy (Protege #0187)[/frame_center]

    Hardy is a smaller male Aussie, weighing in at about 30 lbs. He came from a home that could no longer keep him, and now needs someone who can take him and love him forever. He is a happy boy, with good spirits who enjoys people and dogs. Hardy hasn’t met a dog he doesn’t like yet. He is very playful, and also somewhat perceptive. His foster sister doesn’t like to play and she told him that the first day he came, so Hardy has kept his distance with her. However Hardy plays with his foster brother regularly. At first he wasn’t sure how to play, but he caught on quickly and now the two boys would play all day if they could.

    Hardy also likes people. He is a TINY bit shy at first, but not much, and he warms up to people very quickly. He loves getting treats and being petted. He’d be a cuddly lap dog if someone would let him, though he doesn’t usually get on the furniture unless invited.

    Hardy loves to go for car rides and is good in the car. He likes to look out the window or take naps while he’s driven around. Hardy also loves toys of all shapes and sizes. He likes to play tug with rope toys and chase any toy or ball you throw.

    One thing Hardy doesn’t like is his crate. Because he is a new dog in the house, Hardy has to stay in a crate when his foster mom is gone to work. Hardy has some anxiety in the crate and sometimes pants and barks. This is something his foster mom believes he can work through with some more training. Hardy sleeps through the night in his crate without any problems.

    He is very perceptive to voice commands, and is the kind of dog that wants to please his owner. Hardy knows sit, down and stay. He also knows “get
    off” which was used when he did jump on the furniture. Hardy is housebroken and will usually whine and pace back and forth (to the door if he has access to it) when he needs to go outside.

    Hardy would be a great sport dog for someone interested in flyball or agility because he is so easily trainable, eager to please and just generally quick and sporty. However, Hardy would also make a good family dog. As long as he gets to go on walks, and chase a ball, Hardy will always be happy.

    He is being fostered in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. 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.

    Private Adoption: 2 Lethal White Blue Merle Australian Shepherd Puppies in Kentucky

    Posted on by

    2 male Australian Shepherd Lethal White/Double Merle pups in Paintsville, KY, 41240. 2hrs from Lexington, 3hrs from Cincinnati and Louisville KY.

    [frame_center src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/KY50.18563071-2-x-1-400x300.jpg" href="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/KY50.18563071-2-x-1.jpeg"]Lethal White Puppies[/frame_center]

    Danny and his brother Tony are beautiful pure bred Australian Shepherds. Unfortunately they were not bred by individuals with any knowledge of the issues related to “double merles”. As a result of this breeding BOTH PUPPIES ARE BLIND AND DEAF. They actually have underdeveloped eyes, which appears as if they don’t have eyes at all. They are also deaf, so they can not hear any commands, or sweet sounds.

    [frame_center src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/latest-pics-010-400x300.jpg" href="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/latest-pics-010.jpeg"]Lethal White Puppies[/frame_center]

    This will make their training very difficult, but not impossible. These pups are VERY smart and will thrive on scent training. It was take tons of time and patience, but it can be done. If you would like to adopt these pups, you will have to do your research and understand the types of training involved and you will be asked about what you have learned.

    These pups desereve a special home that will love them and socialize them like any other “normal” puppy. These pups still need discipline and structure and need to be taught how to behave. They still chew on things, steal your shoes, and eventually will steal your hearts. If you are interested in adoption these sweet pups please fill out an application. Fenced yard is required. Adoption fee to be stated later.

    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.

    [frame_center src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/Greater-Taree-13-266x400.jpg" href="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/Greater-Taree-13.jpg"]NS 0939 Greater Taree[/frame_center]

    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.

    I am missing my left eye as it never developed as a pup, but that doesn’t stop me! I love to play ball and play with kids. I love my human kid who is 7 years old, I’d go everywhere with him if I could. If you let me I’ll sleep on the couch and even on your bed with you. I love to run around the yard, and just run, but when I want inside I come and sit by the door for you to let me in.

    I am little protective of my crate and my food when other dogs are around but will allow them to be near me once I’m corrected. I’d do best if I could be your only dog but I do get along with other dogs. I love playing ball and playing tug of war. I’m housebroken, and when I need to go outside I’ll tell you. I do bark when people come to the door. I know commands like, sit, stay, leave it, watch me, let’s go, box, and come. I’m up to date on my shots and am in Council Bluffs, Iowa.

    ADOPTED: Diesel (Protege #0183) 1.5 Year Old Blue Merle Male Australian Shepherd Iowa

    Posted on by
    2

    Let me introduce myself. My name is Diesel (Protege #0183) and I am almost 1-1/2 years old. I am a medium energy, neutered blue merle Australian Shepherd. My sister and I came into Protege after a sad time: my human mom died of cancer and my dad couldn’t keep us any longer.

    [frame_center src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/Diesel-large2-391x400.jpg" href="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/Diesel-large2.jpeg"]Diesel (Protege #0183)[/frame_center]

    I am about 64 pounds of loving. My foster mom says that I need to lose a few pounds, though, and we are working on that. I am a happy-go-lucky guy and am what you would call a velcro dog. I will either be right by your side or within eye’s reach. I love my people and don’t want them to be too far away from me. I would really enjoy snuggling up next to you on the sofa if you’ll let me, but will settle for lying on the floor next to your feet. At night I would also love to snuggle up in bed next to you and I will be really glad to help keep you warm! If you are a person who works out at home, I will be right by your side like a sideline cheerleader throughout your routine. My favorite part is if you are on the floor, so that I can try to sneak in an occasional kiss.

    When I first came to the rescue, my foster mom had to push and shove me into the crate. I really didn’t want to go in there; but after a couple of days of that, I decided to make life easier on both of us, so now I will go right into the crate when she asks me. I am completely housebroken. I am only crated when my foster mom is gone for long periods of time. I know the commands sit and shake and am learning down.

    [frame_center src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/Diesel-large3-400x299.jpg" href="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/Diesel-large3.jpeg"]Diesel (Protege #0183)[/frame_center]

    I love meeting people. My foster mom laughs at me because my butt wiggles and my little tail wags like crazy when I see people. We went to Petco recently, and I loved seeing all the people. I enjoy playing with my foster brother. I would prefer to wrestle with him but he doesn’t like to do that, so we settle for playing tug. I love to run and play in the snow and run along the fence line with the neighbor dogs. I do get along well with other dogs. I will bark at them but I’m just saying hi and talking to them.

    My foster mom laughs at me when she sees me watching TV. Yes it is true, I do like to watch a little bit of TV, especially when there are animals on there. Sometimes I’ll stand up in front of the TV to watch it and when the animals leave the screen I look behind the TV to see if they went back there. I haven’t found them yet.

    To give you an idea of what great dogs my sister Harley and I are, the foster family who was keeping sis, adopted her after just a few days! They knew an awesome dog when they saw one; I am just as cool as she is!

    I am up to date on my shots, and currently on heartworm and flea/tick preventatives. I am being fostered near Iowa City, Iowa. If you might be interested in learning more about me, 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.
