Australian Shepherd Dogs Available for Adoption

Woody is a gentle, thoughtful dog who truly comes alive outdoors. He loves being outside, whether he’s stretching his legs on a walk or simply sitting quietly and gazing up at the sky, taking in the world around him.
At heart, Woody is an anxious guy with a very loving soul. He seeks comfort from his people and tends to “borrow” confidence from those around him, looking to his humans for reassurance and guidance. Because of this, he’ll do best with a confident owner who can provide calm leadership and help him feel safe. With the right person by his side, Woody will blossom into a deeply devoted, affectionate companion who loves with his whole heart.
