ADOPTED NS 1028 Red Rock 2 Year Old Red Merle Australian Shepherd Male Illinois

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.

Red Rock Red Merle Australian Shepherd Illinois

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.

He does have a few dislikes, don’t we all? He doesn’t enjoy the crate though he will go in when it’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’t mastered playing with toys but is all about pleasing you.

Since Milo is a pup at heart and age, he is in that chewing and getting into mischief phase and will need a home that understands the needs and energy of a puppy. But once Milo is past all that and has taken his obedience classes and worn out, he will be your typical, velcro Aussie.

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

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. 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.

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

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! 

Sailor is fostering in Ulen Minnesota. Complete an application at New Spirit 4 Aussie Rescue. Reference NS 0869

    ADOPTED: Trip (Protege #0184) 5 Month Old Male Australian Shepherd Mix Iowa

    Trip (Protege #0184) is a 5 month old Australian Shepherd mix who will capture your heart with his adorable puppy antics and sweet face! Trip is neutered, up to date on all vaccinations, and on heartworm and flea preventatives.

    [frame_center src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/Trip-large-400x266.jpg" href="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/Trip-large.jpeg"]Trip (Protege #0184)[/frame_center]

    Trip had a rough start to his young life, but was rescued by a neighbor, and has now come into foster care until he finds his forever home. Trip is a little shy and quiet in new situations, but quickly comes out of his shell and is all puppy. He is very people-oriented, and usually wants to be wherever you happen to be, and he loves to cuddle. In his foster home he gets along well with the four resident dogs, and wants to play with the two resident cats, who aren’t so keen to play with him. Trip needs lots of redirection at this point in his young life to be respectful of the cats. He does not show any inclination to hurt them, but really wants to get them to play with him.

    Trip loves having other dogs around to play with him. He is working on housetraining and crate training, and is making great progress. He currently is able to go all night without any middle of the night trips outside. Trip fusses in the crate if you are nearby, but once you leave the house, he is quiet in his crate. He wasn’t sure what a leash was when he arrived into rescue, and so he is working on leash walking. Trip is a typical puppy with lots of energy, and will need to go to a home where his new family has the time to devote to exercising him and to teaching him the manners he will need to become a wonderful adult companion.

    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.

    Felix loves playing with other dogs and gets along with cats and children. He is housebroken and crate trained, though he can be left alone in the house loose and he doesnt get into anything.

    Meet Iroh (#0180), a 7 year old, neutered red merle Australian Shepherd. Iroh came to Protégé after his owner became ill and was no longer able to care for him. He is a very well-behaved dog and loves any form of affection. He is very dignified though, and isn’t in your face about it.

    For Iroh, there are few things a dog treat and belly rub can’t fix. He is completely housebroken, and while he really does not enjoy being in a crate, will go into it and stay quiet after a few minutes. However, at his foster home he is allowed to wander around loose and there haven’t been any problems. Iroh knows how to sit, stay, and come on command and is great off-leash. He also conveniently answers to the name/word “dog.”

    [frame_center src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/Iroh-large-400x300.jpg" href="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/Iroh-large.jpeg"]Iroh (Protege #0180)[/frame_center]

    Iroh gets along great with other dogs and ignores cats completely. Iroh LOVES one-on-one time with people. He does need to have some dental work done but he doesn’t let it bother him. Iroh exhibits alarm barking but is easily quieted and is never aggressive.

    When coming home, Iroh’s foster parents are greeted with great excitement and affection. His exhilaration and enthusiasm has quickly become something they look forward to. While his energy and excitement are fun, they are not over-the-top and he quickly settles down, resting his head on their laps or lying at their feet.

    At night Iroh keeps an eye on the house by laying in different areas (i.e. by one door, then on his pillow in the bedroom, then the living room). He loves to cuddle on the couch or in bed if you’ll let him, but is too polite to assume you want him all over your furniture. Wow, what a smart dog!

    Iroh has the most stunning eyes. Each eye is two different colors! His left eye is bright blue on bottom and brown on top, while his right eye is brown on bottom and bright blue on top.

    If you might be interested in learning more about Iroh, 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.

    ADOPTED: NS 0903 Eddie Red Merle Australian Shepherd 2 Years Old Male Illinois-Minnesota

    Meet Eddie – an all-around awesome family Australian Shepherd! Eddie loves to play, yet is not aggressive or overly playful. He’s a medium size guy with an extra large personality! He is an extremely loyal family friend yet has no anxiety and is completely trusted while the family is out to freely roam the house. He has great puppy dog manners such as knowing and listening to basic commands, being gentle/fun with visitors, cats, and other dogs. It was originally thought that since Eddie is whats known as a double merle Aussie, he could be deaf. But his foster mom reports that he can hear her calling for him from a different floor of the house! So while he got the lethal coloring, his vision and hearing are just fine! As for his business, he’ll bark to let you know it is time to go outside, and does not have accidents in the house.

    At bedtime he prefers to sleep as close to his family as he can – by the bed, in the bed, near the bedroom door – wherever you will let him – just as long as he knows he is part of the clan!
    Eddie appears to have been very well loved and trained from wherever he has came from, and is very much loved in his foster home here! If all this were not enough, you should hear all the compliments he gets on his beautiful coat, cute expressive face, and his A + personality while out on walks or at the pet store. Who would not adore this guy? Eddie is fostering in St Louis Park, Minnesota. Complete an application at New Spirit 4 Aussie Rescue. Reference NS 0903.

    ADOPTED: NS 0585 Nero (Cody) 4 Year Old Red Merle Male Australian Shepherd Illinois

    Meet Nero, a beautiful red merle Australian Shepherd, who weighs around 45 pounds, and is about 5 years old. Nero was one of our first adoptions in Illinois but was returned. He started to growl at children in the home under 12 years of age, because of this we are asking you only apply if you don’t have pre-teens or younger living in the home. He is not aggressive, just lets them know he is uncomfortable.

    [frame_center src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/DSC02669-400x225.jpg" href="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/DSC02669.jpeg"]NS 0585 Nero (Cody)[/frame_center]

    Nero with adults and teenagers is just like any other dog that loves people. He gets along fine with other dogs, tolerates cats and is completely housebroken.

    [frame_center src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/Mick-just-chillin-265x400.jpg" href="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/Mick-just-chillin.jpg"]NS 0585 Nero (Cody)[/frame_center]

    Nero is good in a car, on a leash and will not chew on anything left out. He is the perfect indoor dog. Nero is not an overly active Aussie so an adopter looking for a companion will not find a better friend to have in their home.

    [frame_center src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/Mick-in-PROFILE-400x265.jpg" href="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/Mick-in-PROFILE.jpg"]NS 0585 Nero (Cody)[/frame_center]

    ADOPTED: NS 0834 Cocoa 12 Week Old Red Merle Australian Shepherd Male Minnesota

    Cocoa is a 4 month old purebred Australian Shepherd Male. He is the result of a double merle breeding which has left him deaf and mostly blind. But dont let that deter you from adopting him! Cocoa doesnt know that he’s different and he plays and gets on just as well, if not better, than other pups his age! Cocoa loves to play with the resident dogs and is great with the cat. He relies on sound vibrations and shadows and follows his foster mom around the house just fine. He is a bit of a fireball and will not be suited for a couch potato home!

    [frame_center src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/cocoa1.jpeg" href="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/cocoa1.jpeg"]NS 0834 Cocoa[/frame_center]

    He loves to romp and run and play! If he cant find you, he will bark so you can locate him. He is learning touch signals (ie: double tap between shoulder blades means ‘lay down’) He seems to be housebroken and does very well in his crate. Cocoa loves stuffed toys and can be kept busy with a stuffed shin bone or Nylabone. He is still in the puppy chewing stages so he will need to be supervised until he’s older! He is also a bit mouthy still.

    [frame_center src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/cocoa11-400x266.jpg" href="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/cocoa11.jpeg"]NS 0834 Cocoa[/frame_center]

    We recommend a fenced yard for Cocoa so that he can be kept safe when outside. You wont be able to call him back and he may not see you even if he’s looking in your direction. If kept exercised, Cocoa is a great in the house. He will nap with you and sleep with you. He weighs about 20lbs as of mid January. He’s a red merle and it looks like he’s wearing muddy pants!

    ADOPTED: Scooby (Protege #0177) Red Merle Australian Shepherd Male Iowa

    Introducing Scooby (Protege #0177)! Scooby is a 3 year old red merle male Aussie! He has recently been neutered, is up to date on all vaccinations, has been heartworm tested and is on preventatives. He is small in height, but has a few extra pounds that he could stand to lose. He currently weighs in at 34 pounds, but would probably be best at 30 pounds.

    Scooby is very affectionate and super cute, and he is definitely a velcro Aussie who wants nothing more in life than to be right where his people are. He gets along well with all other dogs, and is currently being fostered in Cedar Rapids, Iowa at Camp Bow Wow where he interacts with staff and up to 14 other dogs on a daily basis.

    [frame_center src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/Scooby-large-376x400.jpg" href="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/Scooby-large.jpeg"]Scooby (Protege #0177)[/frame_center]

    Scooby has done well with everyone he meets. He is a bit nervous upon first meeting, but is quite quick to warm up to new people after introductions. He shows interest in cats, and will follow them around if the cats are playing, but Scooby has been respectful of them.

    Scooby was originally raised in a Spanish-speaking household. We have been working on learning what Scooby’s commands were in Spanish, and we are slowly trying to help him to associate them with the matching English commands. He is very eager to please, and if he understands what you are asking for he responds very well.

    Scooby is completely housetrained, and has not had any accidents in the house or in his kennel at camp. He initially fusses, but quiets quickly when you leave the area, or when you tell him to be quiet.

    The shelter staff reported that when Scooby was dropped off at the shelter there was a toddler with them, who was hugging and kissing Scooby, and Scooby was very tolerant of this. We have not yet tested him with small children, but based on this account I would think that he will probably do fine with kids.

    If you are looking for a cute, smaller-sized Aussie who has a big heart to love his new family, Scooby would love to become a forever part of your family! If you might be interested in learning more about Scooby, 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.

    ADOPTED: NS 0789 Rumples Red Merle Australian Shepherd Male Minnesota

    Rumples is a gorgeous 3 year old red merle Australian Shepherd male. Rumples weighs about 50lbs and has a full, beautiful tail! We pulled Rumples from a shelter where he was put on the euth list to make room for more incoming stray dogs.

    [frame_center src="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/Rumples.jpeg" href="http://www.aussierescueil.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/Rumples.jpeg"]NS 0789 Rumples[/frame_center]

    He was found as a stray as well and nobody ever claimed him. Rumples is one of the sweetest Aussies alive. He loves kids of all ages and has a great temperment for any family situation. He loves going to the dog park to play with the other dogs! We do not know how he is with cats at this time, but he’s such a laid back guy that it probably wouldnt be an issue. Rumples appears to be housebroken and is crate trained as well. He’s got excellent house manners and is game to either join you for a run around the town or to curl up on the couch with a movie! Rumples is fostered in White Bear Lake, Minnesota.

    Jubilee is a 1.5 year old purebred red merle Australian Shepherd female. She’s got a lot more white on her body than your standard merle, but she’s got full hearing and vision. She’s a stunningly beautiful girl, with a docked tail and one amber eye and one half amber/half blue eye!

    She minds well in the house and is not a high energy girl. She loves to sit on the couch and cuddle with her humans. She does great with other dogs, but is maybe a little too interested in the cats. Some she doesn’t bother, others upset her. She does very well with children too! Jubilee is about 35lbs currently but needs to gain 5-10 as she’s very thin right now. But this shouldnt be a problem because she loves to eat! She has spent much of her life as an outside dog and is still learning about potty training and leash walking. She is fully crate trained and sleeps through the night without a peep. She knows the ‘sit’ command and is a very velcro dog. She’s a shadow girl for sure!

    Jubilee has a great personality and is easily trainable. She will need regular exercise and training to keep her from getting bored, she is very smart despite her easy going personality. Jubilee has excellent leash manners and heels very nicely. She never pulls! She is a bit nervous in the car but does not get sick. She will love car rides once she associates them with good things!
