Australian Shepherd Dogs Available for Adoption

Meet Heart Mercantile! She was named after a little shop in Dayton with a little bit of something for everyone and a whole lot of heart, and that is the perfect description of her too! Heart is an 8 week old Aussie mix. She is a playful pup who loves to chase after a ball, tug on a rope toy, and chew on bones! Heart and her sister love romping around the backyard and are starting to learn how to walk on a leash so they can enjoy the world outside the fence (and outside the puppy stroller!). She has met lots of people and pups and is happy to make friends with everyone. Heart is just starting to work on the puppy basics, but would love to learn alongside her forever family! Apply to adopt Heart and bring home a whole lot of love!
All of our dogs are spayed or neutered, up to date on age appropriate vaccinations, microchipped and if over 6 months of age, heartworm tested and on heartworm preventative in their foster home.

We require an approved application to meet any of our dogs. We do not have a shelter location and will not arrange a meeting without an approved application.

We strive to make sure the bios provided for our dogs are complete and accurate; we do understand that mistakes happen, however, so if you absolutely cannot find the answer to your question in the dog's bio, you can contact us for more information.

We require a home visit for each dog we adopt out, so we adopt within a 2 hour radius of Dayton, OH. If you are outside of this radius, we encourage you to contact your local rescue or shelter.
