Australian Shepherd Dogs Available for Adoption

Tito is fostered in Waukesha, WI

This gorgeous guy would love to be your one and only! Tito is the absolute sweetest black tri male Australian Shepherd. He was a stray who landed in an IL shelter. Tito is estimated to be about a year old and approximately 50 lbs. His mezmorizing golden eyes just melt the soul!

Tito falls hard. He falls for his humans and he loves all his things. Tito is a pleasure to be around with his fondness for people of all shapes and sizes. Given he has had little to no training, we feel it's best that his adopter be someone experienced with herding breeds. He also could use some basic obedience training, which is an excellent way to bond. This guy is TOTALLY food motivated and he does respond nicely to commands.

Tito is crate trained and house trained. He totally loves car rides and running errands with you.... anything to be next to his humans. Tito is far too prey driven to be in a home with any feline companions though. He would be AUSSOME as the squirrel patrolman on duty! He enjoys being the BIG lap dog that he is and he is actually QUITE human focused and very food motivated, making him eager to please his hooman.

Tito is neutered, up-to-date on all vaccinations, heartworm negative, microchipped and receiving monthly preventatives for fleas, ticks and heartworms. Proof of heartworm prevention for any current or previous pets is required to adopt from our organization.

NOTE: All of our dogs live in foster homes with volunteers so we need an approved application on file to set up a meet with a dog you might have an interest in. Please visit our website for more information on our adoption process, our adoption fees and a link to our adoption application. We pride ourselves on matches that work for both the dog and your family. MASR is here for your support, advice and safety net for our dogs for the remainder of their lives.

The Australian Shepherd is a highly intelligent and energetic herding dog known for its loyalty and work ethic. Originating in the United States, despite its name, this breed is prized for its agility, trainability, and versatility in various dog sports and activities. 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.

Our mission is to rescue Australian Shepherds and other working breeds from abuse, neglect, strays, and owners in dire need...
