Austin
NCAR # 176
Austin, previously Hans, is a delightful Aussie-Husky
and possibly Cattle Dog mix. He's very good with cats!
He walks up to them, says "Hi" and walks away
- a couple of times he's even give them a quick lick!
He's also been playing with lots of different dogs with
different personalities in his foster home and boarding
kennel. He's been very stable with all of them. He respects
the dominant ones and is gentle with the submissive
ones. He's really quite an amazing guy!
We took our dogs to meet Austin today...what a doll!
Big and beautiful! Ran around and said hi to the new
dogs, was very polite and happy to see us. He didn't
jump up...good thing since it was so muddy! He is playful
and cuddly, and loves people and other dogs. Fostered
in Brentwood. Contact Kim at kim@norcalaussierescue.com.

Jovi NCAR #178
 Jovi & her new family |
Jovi (previously Stella) is a cutie pie! She's 10-14 months old and sweet and anxious to get attention. She knows sit, but it's only for a second, then she wants to be
in your lap. We're working on sit/stay! She is very engaged in people and
slightly timid of other dogs. She should do nicely in a home where she'll be
enrolled in an obedience class and where she'll get plenty of exercise and
attention so she grows up to be a very nice Aussie. Because she's still a
bit mouthy, we think she might be a little too much for children under 8-10
years of age.

Nibbles
Shelter Aussie Mix - Special Needs
San Clemente, CA
Information on Deaf Aussies
Nibbles is an 11 month old Australian Shepherd mix that was turned into the
San Clemente Shelter because his family didn't know how to deal with a deaf
dog. He's really good at Frisbee and agility. He is a white Aussie and is
deaf.
He has very little time left before the shelter puts him down.
He is cute, loves to amuse himself for hours playing with his toys, he even
will open up the toy box and pick out all his favorite toys. He is the best
Frisbee dog, he catches in the air and never misses. He knows hand signals
for come, sit, down & walks well on a leash. He loves other dogs, there
isn't one that he doesn't like or doesn't like him!
He is protective of food and bones, so anyone who is interested needs to be
aware of this and would need to work on it with food exchanges and food bowl
exercises. He would best in an adult only home who lead an active
lifestyle. He has made significant progress at the shelter and could
continue to make progress once in a home environment. He would make a
fabulous agility or frisbee dog, just for fun or for competition. If you can
help, please contact: Sheri Grant at 949-551-6992.

Pico
NCAR #147
Pico is a smart, big, lovey 7 year old blue merle with
the most gorgeous marbled brown and blue eyes. His owners
divorced and neither could take him, so they surrendered
him to us. He was 15 pounds overweight and spent his
days and nights outside in a kennel for the last 10
months. Thankfully, children played with him, so can
be a very friendly boy.
See
video of Pico playing [267 KB]
See
Pico cuddling with his foster dad
Update: He's lost 10 pounds in foster
care, gets walked regularly and had his teeth cleaned!
He's looking and doing great!
Pico's foster mom is taking him through obedience and
basic agility. This big boy really comes alive and will
do anything for treats! He even goes through the tunnel
because he knows something yummy is waiting for him
at the other end. Pico is very lucky that his foster
mom has taken the time to learn everything she can about
him and has introduced him to lots of new experiences.
Pico is cat aggressive, but OK with most dogs. He LOVES
to run around the dog park, but has a found a few male
Goldens he isn't fond of. We think he'd do best as an
only dog because he really craves human attention. He
will need a home where his owners will give him daily
exercise and keep him on his current weight loss program!
He has counter-surfed, so he shouldn't be left alone
in the kitchen with left-out food!
He is crate trained and likes to "chill"
in his crate. He rides happily in the car and likes
to watch traffic or look for squirrels. He is a pretty
mellow guy, but can be the classic pushy Aussie who
will take advantage of too soft an owner. He has also
shown that he can guard his toys if he feels that someone
might take them away. Pico would do well in an adult
only home where he is loved and appreciated for his
comical quirks as well as his intelligence, and where
he'll continue the great lifestyle he's had in foster
care. Fostered in Danville. Contact: Kim at kim@norcalaussierescue.com

Red is a red Cattle Dog mix who has an even and gentle
temperament. He has had a tough start in life and was
hit by a car and had a back leg amputated. He is neutered
and the redness on his forehead has diminished a bit...we're
not sure if it's sunburn, but we'll have a vet check it.
He is good with other dogs and cats. He walks well on
a leash and does not run away off-leash. He fetches like
a pro and likes children. Red really wants to go to a
new forever home. We think he is 10 months old. If you
would like to own a wonderful, happy dog, Red is for you!

Spokane NCAR #174
 Spokane |
SPOKANE lives with Kelly and John in Oakland where she goes on long walks in
the hills and family trips in the Vanagon! They love her energy, her
intelligence and her beautiful fluffy tail!
Spokane is a 5 year old blue merle with her fluffy tail! She was turned into
the Yolo County Animal Shelter for reasons unknown. (This shelter doesn't
require surrender paperwork) We do know that she's fun, affectionate,
playful and housebroken! Her beautiful coat was badly matted, so we had to
shave some of it off during her grooming. She likes any kind of stuffed toys
and tennis balls and likes taking them outside through the doggie door. She
begs to be played with and is very happy girl. She slept in a crate all
night and enjoys being in the car. She has been debarked but hasn't shown us
any indication that she's excessively barky. She knows sit, shake and is
extremely attentive. Fostered in Oakland.

Tuk NCAR #160
Tuk is going to live in Antioch with Teresa and Joshua. His new parents both work from home so he will get lots of love and attention.
Tuk is a 2-3 year old love bug! We think he's an Aussie-Spaniel
mix - he could almost pass for a mini Aussie! He's
very tiny at 33 pounds and needs to gain some more
weight. He is over his pneumonia and is showing his
fun personality. He's stolen the heart of his foster
dad!
He's a cuddle bug who loves his foster dad and eats
like a St. Bernard! He was a stray who came into the
Clovis Animal Shelter and was never claimed. He's
very sweet and has nice house manners. Fostered in
Woodland. Contact: Kim at kim@norcalaussierescue.com

Chelsey NCAR ID #155
 Chelsey lounging in her favorite spot |
Chelsey will live in Davis with her new mom and dad. She'll get plenty of
time with her mom who will take her everywhere with her and take her on
power walks! Chelsey is a lovely, 2-3 year old blue merle. She's
doing well in foster care with 3 other Aussies, although
she likes to push her way into the center of attention.
She's moderately active and mild mannered...but determined
to get pets in true Aussie fashion.
She loves to sit for pets from people and although
a mellow girl, will play with puppies and playful adult
dogs. She's a bit insecure, and when confronted with
new situations, often seeks petting and reassurance
from her foster mom. She's good on a leash and enjoys
car rides. She sits in the back with a harness on or
lies in her crate. We'd like her to be the only dog
in her new home and continue obedience training to build
up her confidence and give her more to learn.
This is a very nice Aussie girl for someone who wants
a devoted Aussie companion. Fostered in Woodland. Contact:

Toby,
NCAR #163
Toby is adored by Lori and her family. Lori is a dog trainer who has already begun obedience with Toby and will eventually get him into Agility.
Toby is a 15 month old mini Aussie. He's neutered, up
to date on his vaccines and weighs 32 pounds. His owner
had him since he was a puppy and realized she was unable
to give him the attention he craves. He's very "high drive"
with incredible intelligence and energy. This great boy
is not for the average dog owner. We are looking for a
home where he'll get the stimulation and training he needs
to channel his energy and challenge his mind. If you want
to do Obedience, Flyball, Agility or all three, this is
your boy! His foster mom says he plays too rough with
cats! Fostered in Brentwood. Contact: Kim at kim@norcalaussierescue.com

Mickey NCAR #139
 Mickey |
Mickey is a 2 or 3 year old mini Aussie from a shelter
near Fresno. He was adopted on July 3, 2004, but the
senior dog in the family didn't like him and shunned
all his attempts to play, so we are finding him a new
home. He is a double merle mini Aussie with his fluffy
tail. The ophthalmologist says he has full vision in
one eye and none in the other.
He likes children and seems to be OK around cats, but
since he has vision out of only one eye, we'd prefer
to rehome him where there aren't any cats or where they
are proven dog-friendly. He loves to play ball and would
do great with an active family where he can stay busy.
He chases squirrels and has energy to burn. Mickey is
very fun, weighs just 20 pounds and is very ball driven!
See How Mickey Loves his ball [321 KB]
Mickey is totally about play and fetching his red ball.
He is doing great playing with his two Aussie siblings
in his foster home! He's loving and very quick and should
do well in obedience, agility or flyball. He loves the
dog park. This is a darling, fun boy who can go anywhere
and be happy. Fostered in Santa Rosa. Contact: Cyndi

 Joe, Grace and Charlotte |
Joe, Gracie and Charlotte leaving for home in Santa Cruz! Gracie now lives
near the beach and a big park with an 18 month old Aussie boy. She's going
to obedience classes with her mom too! Lucky Gracie!
Grace is a very sweet 10-month old black tri. Her owners kept her outside
all day and night and she jumped their 4 foot fence to find some people or
something to do. She got hit by a car several months ago and thankfully was
not injured. The parents did not want her inside, and thought that she
simply needed more than 1/2 an acre. The size of the yard was not the
problem - being left alone was! She was raised with children and other dogs
and is a happy, soft girl. She is sleeping in a crate in the bedroom and
goes in and out of the house all day. This is a playful, cautious and a
typical velcro Aussie. Fostered in Santa Rosa. Contact: Cyndi at Cyndi@norcalaussierescue.com

Miko's new mom saw him posted on our web site and drove 2 hours to Hollister to adopt him. She says, "He's doing GREAT and
loving it here. I already have him signed up for
obedience classes, and he's sooo smart! Not sure if he
will need those classes! Haha I've only had him for
two days, and he's already housebroken, crate-trained,
will sit for food, and I just taught him 'down' and
we're working on 'stand up' from a down position. What
a smart and beautiful pup."
This 7-8 month old, blue merle, boy is deaf. He's very sweet, gentle and
playful. He is current on shots, neutered, healthy and ready for his forever
home.
