Cabo
Cabo in his new home with Chris and Amanda. He'll go on daily walks and hikes and is the apple of his parents' eyes!

Cabo is a smart, friendly mini Aussie who weighs about 35 lbs. He's two years old and is considered a "black bi" meaning he has no copper in his coat. He's smart, ready for agility or advanced obedience. He loves to go for walks and hikes and is incredibly affectionate and sweet.

His owner has learned that Cabo can't share his home with other dogs. He can share with people and children and even cats, but when a dog comes near his bed or crate, he is aggressive. He's fine on walks and in parks where he encounters dogs, and played fetch nicely with my fetchaholic Aussie. He will do great with someone who has no other dogs and wants a smaller, smart and loyal Aussie. He can go to work with his person too...as long as other dogs don't share his space! This is a nice boy, very cuddly with with just one small "issue". Cabo can live with birds, cats and children of all ages. Cabo is in Pacifica. Contact: Kim at kim@norcalaussierescue.com

Shiloh NCAR #175

Shiloh and Tess

Shiloh lives with Tess and Eleanor in Magalia. Eleanor has owned Aussies since she was 22 yrs old and adopted Tess from us last November. She lost her beloved 15 year old Aussie, BJ in January. Shiloh and Tess are helping Eleanor cope with her loss, and Eleanor gives them both lots of love right back.

Shiloh is a wonderful companion. He loves to follow his foster mom around the yard while she's gardening and stays right by her side - the perfect VELCRO AUSSIE! He loves to go for walks and is good on the leash. He's 6 years old, knows sit and down very well and is always very happy to see his foster mom and dad when they come home. His favorite thing is to have his belly scratched and kicking back watching TV! His energy level is average for an aussie and he does not require tons of exercise.

He would do best in a home without cats. He loves people and children, but gets excited when kids are running and playing, so we think children over 12 might be best!


Shiloh is all wiggles and smiles and adores people. He loves his foster dad and gets long beautifully with his two Aussie brothers. He's a really nice, small, 47- pound boy who loves snuggling and would love to be someone's only companion, but can certainly live with another dog....especially and Aussie! He has proven himself a delightful boy and so deserving of a home of his own! Fostered in Santa Rosa.

Bowie, NCAR # 253

Norm, Nancy & Bowie

Bowie lives with Norm and Nancy in Placerville. He'll get to go on vacations with them in their RV, too!

Bowie is a purebred, fawn colored Cocker Spaniel. He was running down a busy street and when I pulled over and called him, he came right to me. I knocked on some doors but no one knew where he lived. No one answered my ad or responded to fliers.

He was infested with fleas...and his body was covered in mats. I had him shaved, except for the top of his head and my groomer and I thought he looked like David Bowie, hence his name!
This boy is a nice, easy-going boy who loves to be with me. We believe he's 2 years old. He has a cataract in one eye and the opthalmologist thinks he may have limited vision in that eye. He doesn't miss anything, and can see people and dogs 1/2 mile away! He is great off leash and follows me everywhere, just like an Aussie! He sleeps snuggled next to me and is very cuddly! He's fine with all dogs, young and old, big and small. Contact: Kim at kim@norcalaussierescue.com

Bubba
Bubba is an incredibly large 8 month old black tri who is active, confident and fun...and did I mention large? He should mature to 70+ pounds. His mom bought Bubba and his brother as puppies. Now she's expecting a baby and has doctor's orders to stay calm and not do too much. Both of these boys are too much for her, so we're finding Bubba a new home.

Bubba did very well off leash, likes to play with other dogs, pulls like a moose on a leash and likes to play with, but not hurt cats. He's good with children, but he'd knock over toddlers. Bubba's perfect home would be with an active, experienced owner who will enroll immediately into a good obedience class and give him daily running exercise and structure. This boy will grow up to be a fabulous Aussie. Bubba is in Sacramento. Contact: Kim at kim@norcalaussierescue.com

Sugar
Sugar was born with very little to no vision. She is an 18 month old black tri Aussie and weighs 43 lbs. She's spayed and up to date on her shots. She needs a home with another young dog who is playful and very dog social who will be her guide dog and buddy. She needs a good sized yard so she can exercise but without landscaping that might present a danger to her and no built-in pools ~ though she loves splashing around in her wading pool!

She is the sweetest thing to come around, hence her name. Loves to play with the other young Aussie in the house and loves to snuggle on the couch. She was rescued from the Auburn shelter and needs a home of her very own. Because of her limited vision, we think a home without small children is best. Sugar is located one hour south of Redding.
