Australian Shepherd Dogs Available for Adoption in Kent, Washington

Hi! My name is APPA and I am available for adoption. I was brought in by my previous owner on 04/30/2026 because he doesnt do well with the other dog at home. My previous owner described me as outgoing, loving, playful. I am a gentle and loving dog who likes to take things slow. I may get nervous in new situations, so I am looking for a family who understands that I might take some time to warm up. Once I get to know you, I will be a very devoted friend! I weigh 58 lbs and am considered a large breed dog. I am a very smart dog! At the shelter I am practicing how to sit. I am an independent dog who likes to do my own thing! My caregivers have observed that I might not get along with other dogs. I may do best as the only dog in my new home, or I may need a very slow introduction to other dogs.

Australian Shepherds have a distinctive medium length coat that comes in different colors, often with unique merle patterns. With proper training, socialization, and exercise, these dogs make excellent companions for active families and individuals seeking a devoted and playful four legged friend.
