MARKLEE is a 14 month old neutered
red merle boy who loves to play with toys and go for car rides. He is
crate and house trained and has lots of energy so sitting on the
couch isn't an option for this energetic guy. Marklee would make a
great Frisbee dog or sports dog. Marklee needs more training as most
dogs do but he is a quick learner. Marklee is slow to warm up to
strangers but fine with most kids, interested in cats and fine with
horses, most dogs and chickens. Marklee is putting on weight correctly
since he was so thin, and he loves his raw food. contact rescuer
Katie via e-mail aussierescue@roadrunner.com
or call 661-943-1763
CHIPOTLEE is a 9 month old blue
merle neutered boy who is current on his vaccines and microchipped.
Chipotlee is looking for an Aussie savvy owner who understands and uses
positive motivation when training. No choke chains for this intelligent
boy! Chipotlee needs a job doing agility or herding or something
that can keep his mind active. He loves to play fetch with most things
and play in the water. Chipotlee would do best without small
children. Chipotlee is a happy clown with alot of silly antics.
Understand this isn't your typical smart Aussie, he is over the top
with intelligence so if you don't have the time or understand this
breed he won't be the dog for you. contact rescuer Katie

ASLAND is a 10 month old neutered
red merle boy who is great with kids. He is learning basic stuff and
boundaries since his humans didn't do much of this with him. He
is crate and house trained and somewhat shy at first but warms up
nicely. He was abused and hit so he is a little shy but his
personality is changing daily and gaining confidence. Asland is
just the nicest boy who wants his own human to love, without them
hitting him. Asland likes to play with toys and is happy with his
new life on raw food. He is microchipped. contact rescuer

GENIE
is a 7 year old spayed black tri female that is looking for a home with
no other dogs. She is a fantastic family dog. She is unbelievable
with my children and people. She has been around kids her whole
life. Genie has graduated from two dog training sessions and
knows all of the basic commands. The only issue with Genie is that
about 6 years ago, she started becoming aggressive towards other dogs
for no apparent reason - up until that point, she had no problems with
other dogs. We live in a planned-unit development and the fences are
very short and up to now, she has never tried to get out, but lately we
have had a few instances where she has escaped and found other
neighborhood dogs to get into a fight with :{ If you
are interested in this great family dog, please contact owner Sue @
(805) 637-6951 or email

WILLA
is a 4.5 year old Red Merle spayed female that is in need of a new home
because of some separation anxiety - for over a year she was able to be
with her owner almost 24/7, but now her owner is back in school and
found a job, and Willa is not handling it well, she keeps getting out
of the yard - digging under and climbing over and occasionally pushing
out screens :/ Willa loves to go on walks, is on the
submissive side
with people and when she's been around kids has been fine. Owner
says
she is fabulous with other dogs (lives w/a Heeler & a Chi), and
fine with cats and okay with chickens. She is housebroken and
well
behaved, is on the larger side at around 70 pounds. If you are
interested in this sweet girl please contact her owner Debbie @
951-977-0015 (Norco area)
CHEWBACCA
is a 5 year old neutered back tri male who loves to go on walks and has
lots of energy. He is housebroken, great with other dogs and very
affectionate once he knows you - he can be very protective, so not real
friendly with strangers. He has been living with 2 kids under 2
years of age and has been fine, but recently the 2 year old did
something to him that caused him to yip and then bite her on the nose -
because of this, his owners would like to find him a home with no
kids.

REBA is a 4 1/2 yr old red merle spayed female Aussie who is a
joy to be around. Reba is good with most animals and people but
needs to loose 16 more pounds. Reba would benefit from humans who would
like to take her for several short walks daily until she loses the
weight and gets back into shape, then the sky is the limit

LOLA and LILY are a
mother/ daughter pair. Aussie mixes, Lily (the daughter) being
pure white is deaf and beautiful! Lola and Lily are from
the Bakersfield shelter. They were turned in because their previous
owner was going to jail. They where in the shelter and hours away
from being euthanized. In order to spare their lives, we
unexpectedly took them after their original foster backed out.
Even though we do not take dogs we don’t have a foster for, we couldn’t
let them die but with no foster available, these girls remain in a
boarding kennel and desperately need a foster home. Lily is
approximately 6 months old, very sweet and playful. Her mother,
Lola is approximately 2 years old. After everything she’s been
through, she’s a little untrusting and needs a patient, experienced
handler. Lily is instrumental in helping Lola trust people and we
feel keeping them together is important. These poor girls have
had a rough life and deserve a loving home. We are not sure if
either are friendly with dogs, cats or kids but a foster could help us
determine more about them. For adoption and/or foster
information, please visit us at www.muttmatchla.org
or call 323-664-5877
MARLEY (dog on left) is
almost 12 years old, spayed and de-barked
female. She is obedience trained (she has her Advanced Rally title and
her Novice Standard Agility title). She is a very sweet dog - sort of
the clown of the family - loves everyone. RIO (dog on right) is
almost 11 years old, spayed, de-barked
female. She is shy with some people - not good with other dogs or
kids. Her issue with kids is when they are moving, she wants to herd
them so she nips at them if they run or move around too much. She is
not good with other animals. She is very sweet with adults - pretty
much a lap dog if you would let her.
My best friend is in her last days dying from cancer, and I need to
place her two senior Aussies. They need to go together as they have
been inseparable for 10 years. They are perfect house dogs - both in
excellent health. They are wonderful dogs and I am hopeful that
they can live their final years in a great home. If you have any
questions, you can call me, Judy, on my cell at 714/350-9450 or contact
me by email at jpeterson219@earthlink.net.
SCOOP is a very
affectionate 4 year old neutered male Australian
Shepherd. "Although I'm deaf and blind in my right eye, I know sign
language commands so communicating won't be a problem. I enjoy being
around people, playing fetch and just running around. I'm easily
startled when approached from behind, so I'd do best in an adult only
home with no other dogs or cats." This dog is in need of a foster
home as well as a permanent home. If
you are interested in fostering call the Adoption Center at (805)
652-1001. Scoop is with Canine Adoption and Rescue League in
Ventura Co. click here for
more information
LUNA is 3 years old, spayed,
micro-chipped, and current on
shots. She is a love bug that is deaf and blind. Her
foster mom and dad reports that she loves to give kisses and
snuggle. She is crate trained and rides in a car well. She
gets around very well and loves to play with her foster siblings.. For
more
information, please contact email. (kh)
FOXXY is a spayed female Aussie mix,
current on her shots and rabies vaccine and about 2-3 years old.
She is an inside dog who goes out for play time and walks. She
uses a gentle leader when she goes on walks. She is very busy and
very stubborn, but very sweet. She is good with kids and cats,
but she likes to lick the cats if she catches them (if they run from
her) so my cat at least has learned to just stay still and take the
licks. She is potty trained, and was crate trained. She
loves people, but jumps a bit for the first few minutes when she meets
them. She also likes other dogs, but is completely hyper when she
meets them. She barks at them and wags furiously... It takes her
a couple of minutes to calm down and then she just lays down frog style
and gives kisses...She loves water, and hunts the yard for bunny
rabbits that eat my garden, but will release them immediately if told
to. She loves to play with the laser light at night in the yard
and will chase it for 45 minutes before she is so tired she
stops. She has a mini-pool that she has a blast playing in, and
if she had access to a large pool, I am sure she would be swinmming
every chance she got. All in all, she is a very sweet aussie mix
who needs lots of excercise and love! contact owner Kristie

JAKE
is an Aussie x Golden mix that is about 1.5 yrs. old with a med-high
energy and great w/kids. He's pretty mellow in the house but
outside is a different story. He loves to run & play
fetch. He wakes up w/ lots of energy. I think he has what
it takes to be an agility champion w/ proper training. He loves
to please and is great w/hand signals. He does have some
separation anxiety. He would do best in a home w/at least 1 other
dog, the more the merrier. He plays well w/little dogs. I'm
working on socializing him w/big dogs to. His ideal family would
be someone who has a stay at home parent or works from home. Like
all aussies he love to be w/ his people. He never leaves my
sight. He has pretty good off leash control unless kids pass buy
then he wants to run and go play w/them, so a family w/kids would be a
plus. He loves to cuddle. He likes to be brushed, but is
not a fan of taking baths. I think he just needs more
practice. He is in good health and is a great watch dog. He
will always alert you to unfamilar sounds but he's not yappy.
Once you address that he has alerted you he stops barking. I found him
in the streets all muddy and thin mid-June. He is a healthy
weight now! If you are interested in this handsome fella
contact rescuer Suzanne via e-mail
suzannebarrios@yahoo.com
SELENA
is a 1 year old spayed Aussie mix female that was rescued out of the
Baldwin Park Shelter on her last day! She was feeling very
overwhelmed there and is very skinny & malnourished right now - her
hip bones are protruding! - and was filthy and matted, but her
rescuer has given her a bath, getting some good food in her and she is
feeling much better :} She is a sweet, smart girl,
wants to be with people, knows how to give you her paw, walks well on
the leash---no pulling to date, and sleeps well at night in her
crate. She seems to be okay with other dogs but is currently
being treated for kennel cough so hasn't been around them much yet, and
with brief exposures to kids she seems okay also - licking and wagging
her tail :} If you are interested in this sweet girl,
contact rescuer Stephanie via e-mail

** here is a link to a video of her while she was still at the shelter:

BUTTONS is one of two
puppies we got in June 2009. There were three of them that were from a
beautiful pure bred German Shepherd. Born in December 2008. She is
beautiful and has more the Aussie breeding then her brother Grizz, So
now it is December and she is a year old. She has been spayed and all
shots. Even has a micro chip. She is a outside dog. Lives with her
brother and a chocolate lab. Her brother and her destroy and get into
everything. Puppies! She has hurt my goose and it died. My cats get
chased and do not trust her with them. So not good with other animals
including horses. The two of them pulled out my horses tail and have
been hurting one of his legs by nipping etc.. She has a great
personality! Very loving! Has been trained on leash and gone to beach.
Doesn't like the waves but sure liked going. Loves people and kids! The
two are not good together. So have to at least find home for one. We
live in Riverside.

his entire life chained in a yard until recently dumped an the Pasadena

TEX is a male Australian Cattle Dog/Border Collie mix, 9-10
months old, 43 pounds, neutered, shots, heartworm negative.
Tex was found on the side of a highway in the Texas panhandle. Nothing
around for miles but sagebrush and cattle. He has the coloring of a
Cattle Dog but the temperament and body shape of a Border
Collie. He is a very friendly, bouncy, boisterous, outgoing
dog with a happy attitude. He *loves* riding in the car, is crate
trained and wants to do things *with* you! He would like to be
someone's "hang out buddy". He's learning some manners, but
is really a very well behaved young boy. Tex is eager to learn new
things and is a quick learner! He's very good with female dogs and
would like an *active* female to play with. He would be a
good agility prospect or running/hiking partner as he needs an
*active* home that can provide plenty of daily exercise. It is unknown
how he is with cats, but they would not be recommended. Children over
the age of 10 only, due to his activity level and "bounciness".
