Australian Shepherd Dogs Available for Adoption

Mr. Mayhem is being fostered in Norton Shores MI

This handsome hunk is Mayhem. He is a black tri standard Australian Shepherd with a tail! He weighs 65lbs. His date of birth is 4/8/2019. At almost 7 years old, this distinguished gentleman has the sweetest and calmest disposition. He loves other dogs, cats and all the people he has met! The vet's office even told us that he was such a good boy for his appointment that they were just all in love with him!

Mayhem is potty trained, crate trained and really likes to hang out in his crate with the door open; so a crate in his forever home would be best. He rides well in the car. This boy LOVES to snuggle...on a dog bed, on a couch, on an ottoman, it doesn't matter, he just loves it. He loves soft cushy things and his foster mom often finds him snoozin on something soft. This boy would be great as an only dog and the center of attention OR be a part of a pack OR have a four legged buddy.

Mayhem's gentle disposition would lend itself to a home that is a little more quiet and calm, just like him. We did hear that he has a fear of storms and needs to be next to his person when storms come, but we haven't witnessed this yet in foster care.

Mr. Mayhem is neutered, microchipped, up to date on all vaccinations, negative for all tick borne diseases and on monthly prevention for fleas, ticks and heartworm. Proof of heartworm prevention for any current or previous pets is required to adopt from our organization.

We pride ourselves on matches that work for both the dog and your family.

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...
