Australian Shepherd Dogs Available for Adoption in Bedford, Virginia

Lace… imagine you were taken from your home and put in a very loud bare room by yourself. You hide in the corner hoping your family will come … but they’re the ones who left you there …. Still you wait… hiding, afraid to move. A stranger comes and says do you want to get out of here, you go with her even though you don’t know her. She seems kind. So off to another place that you don’t know, you’re still afraid, but after a few days the fear gradually starts to go away. It’s time to start your new life and BHS will help you find it. Lace is a sweet girl, a little over weight but we are working on that. We were told Lace lived with another larger dog and a cat. She would need to meet the dog if there is one in new home, or I’m sure she would be happy being the only dog. Lace would do better in a home with older dog savvy children. Lace is house trained and walks on a leash, she does tend to get between your feet sometimes, she also rides well in a car.

Her vaccinations are current, she is spayed, heart-worm negative and microchipped. Her adoption fee is $300. Knowledge of this herding breed would be helpful when considering adoption. Lace is a very sweet girl who would be a great addition to the right home.
