Magic
Magic is a 6 year old blue merle with his fluffy tail! Due to family
illness, he needs a new home. Magic is playful, active and friendly towards
everyone and is fine with children. He gets excited when he sees other dogs,
but he's not aggressive - just happy to see them! He has the typical playful
curiosity and attentiveness of a bright Aussie, so he will do well in a home
where he gets daily exercise and continued training. He's smart, listens to
you, fairly well-behaved and a great companion. Magic is neutered, up to
date on his shots, and is currently on Frontline and Interceptor Heartworm
preventative. Magic is in Oakland.

Sydney
Sydney is a 4 year old blue merle girl who weighs about 38 pounds. She originally came from the Martinez pound. This little girl has a sweet temperment and loves to snuggle- a real "velcro" dog. Sydney loves to travel in the car and generally just wants to be where her owner is. She is NOT good with cats and other small animals (which is why she needs a new home) , and would be best as a only dog or with a mellow male dog.

Lady NCAR
Lady is a senior black tri who wandered onto a cement plant in Elk Grove on
December 22, 2003. She was dragging a broken harness and had no collar or ID
tag. The nice men at the cement plant fed her and kept her warm - she stuck
to them like glue. They were certain someone was looking for her and
contacted us for help. We have notified the Sacramento SPCA, placed an ad in
the Bee and posted her on our website, but no one has come forward. She had
recent abdominal surgery and has been well cared for. I took her to the vet
and she's in good health. I took her to the groomer who spent an hour with
her while I watched and Lady is very used to pampering! She even closed her eyes in sheer bliss while having her coat blown dry! See Lady at the
groomers! VIDEO LINK [250 MB]
We believe her family went away for the holidays, hired
a pet sitter, and came back to find her gone. We hope her family comes
forward, but are beginning to take applications for her adoption in case
that doesn't happen. This is a very nice "Lady Aussie"!

Rowdy
Rowdy is a wonderful Blue Merle who turns one year old this month! He has
all his shots, is neutered and is in excellent health. His eyes are mostly
blue, though one eye is marbled with brown. He loves running and playing and
retrieves tennis balls until you get too tired to throw them. He can catch a
Frisbee like a pro. He is friendly and eager to please. He is comfortable
around water and swims in the river. He gets along with the other dominant
female dog in his home and likes to play with any dog he meets. He has not
been given formal obedience training, but knows COME and SIT, walks on a
lead just fine, and goes into his crate when he's asked. Because he likes to
spend most of his time outside, he is not quite housebroken, but he will
learn quickly. He's a sweet boy who doesn't get upset when his toys or food
are taken away. He seems fine with children, although he hasn't met too many
in his neighborhood. Rowdy's owners feel Rowdy would be better off in a home
with a large yard where he can play as much as he wants! Rowdy lives in
Healdsburg, CA.

Mallie NCAR

Mallie learns commands easily and is obedient. People are her favorite! She wants to be around them as much as possible, and loves to be petted. In fact, she'll "talk" to you, asking for attention. Mallie knows the basic commands, will "give you five" and says "please" for a treat. She needs to be with owners who will give her regular exercise and attention during the day.

Annie NCAR
Dad with Annie and Sammy |
Annie and Sammy were placed together. Sammy is a great companion for this little shy girl and we know she and Sammy will blossom in their new home.
Annie is a confident, 8 month old spayed Blue Merle. We rescued her with her
brother Austin and her mother Reba from a ranch where they were "left
behind". All were placed into separate homes, but unfortunately Annie and
the young female Aussie in her new home began fighting, so we are looking to
find her a home without another young, confident female! She is a relatively
calm girl and does a lot of observing. She is very graceful and confident
for her age, and plays well with both the male and female Aussie in my home.
She has adapted well and is a really nice girl. She can be placed with
another nice male dog and would be fine with older children. She should
continue training in her new home. Fostered in Sacramento. Contact Kim Kuenlen at kim@norcalaussierescue.com or call (916) 451-7400.

Sammy NCAR
Annie and Sammy were placed together. See above.
Sammy was in the right place at the right time. I was pulling an Aussie from
the Sacramento County Animal Facility when I noticed this black furry
jumping bean. He jumped at least 3 feet in the air! I came over and saw his
matts dragged on the ground, both from behind his ears and his hind
quarters. His right front leg was slightly shorter than the other. His
kennel card said he came in through the night box. This boy had been badly
neglected and was dying for attention, yet was as happy and bouncy as could
be. After I pulled him I got him groomed and he cleaned up great! Sammy's
staying in my home with 4 aussies and has the sweetest disposition! Sammy is probably an Aussie-Border Collie mix and 3-4 years old. He's neutered and
has a long fluffy tail with a white tip. He's learning that he doesn't have
to jump for attention anymore, but probably do best in a home without toddlers! He loves people and is easy to have around. Contact Kim at 916 451-7400 or email kim@norcalaussierescue.com

Sunny STAAR ID #3779
Kylie and Mom |
Sunny's name is now Kylie. She now lives with her Mom in the Bay Area in a home up against a parkland area. There are lots of hugs, walks and tennis balls in her life. We just saw her at the reunion and she is looking more confident and very happy.
|
Say Happy Birthday to Sunny who turned 2 on December 9! This little 40 pound red tri will fetch a ball and drop it into your lap as long as you're willing to throw it. She is ready for Agility, Flyball or what ever you'd like to teach her. She had a litter of pups in August, so her coat hasn't come in yet. Just after her pups were placed, her owner died and her life changed drastically. She was banished to a back yard for 3 months and had a hard time adjusting to being an outside only dog. She was used to going to wineries, shopping and almost everywhere with her owner. We would like to place her in a home where she can be with her people as much as she wants and where she can fetch the ball or frisbee to her heart's content. She likes to go everywhere, loves to cuddle, sleeps on the bed with her human and is a very attentive girl. She gets a bit nervous around commotion or rough-housing, so we believe an adult household or household with children over 12 would be best. She's fine with other dogs and cats, but she'd do best with a mellower dog who wouldn't compete with her for attention. Sunny is pedigreed, spayed, heartworm negative, knows basic commands and is an extremely agile Aussie! Fostered in Sacramento. Contact: Kim Kuenlen at kim@norcalaussierescue.com or 916-451-7400.

Katie
Katie is a very nice spayed, Aussie mix. She came to us from the Stockton
Shelter. She was an owner surrender, due to escaping the yard...her owners
wouldn't let her in the house, so she was very unhappy and looked for ways
out of the yard to find people! Unfortunately, we've heard this story often.
She's under two years old, full of energy, good with other dogs and great
with people and children. Due to her energy, she should go into a home where
she'll get training and where children over 10. She plays daily in our dog
play groups! She's at the San Francisco SPCA. Business hours are: daily
11-6pm, closed early Christmas & New Years Eve, Closed on Christmas and New
Years. Phone number: 415-522-3500 and website: www.sfspca.org. We hope you
can find room in your heart to adopt Katie!
