"Dillon"
|
Dillon is a 6 month old male Border Collie, with a sweet baby face, and
a luscious coat! Dillon comes from good border collie lines, and is
registered with the American Border Collie Association. His pedigree is
available.
Dillon is neutered and up to date on all vaccinations. He
has been a sheltered boy up until he entered foster care. Since entering
foster care Dillon has been learning all about walking on a leash,
riding in a van, crate training, and general house manners. He makes
progress daily towards being a great dog! Dillon is housetrained, and
has not made mistakes in the house.
We are working hard on learning not
to chase (herd) the cats. I think that with time and patience, this
behavior could be under control with a dog savvy cat. Dillon is very
affectionate and eager to please. Lucky Dillon gets to go to work with
me every day at doggy daycare. You might be able to catch a glimpse of
Dillon romping with the other dogs on our doggy camper cams at
http://www.campbowwow.com/us/ia/hiawatha/CamperCams/tabid/1507/Default.aspx.
I do believe that Dillon would do best in a home that is willing to
provide him with a chance to work doing agility, flyball, disc dog,
herding, or send him to doggy daycare or be willing to spend a lot of
time playing with him in the back yard. Dillon is young and has shown an
eargerness to learn how to be a great companion. Please email for more
information, and check back for updates. Dillon is being fostered in
Cedar Rapids.

"Nina"
|
We would like to introduce you to Nina. Nina is 10 years old, a pretty
blue merle with a full tail. She is a very sweet older lady who was
turned in by her owner because she is no longer able to keep her. The
owner has been divorced and is having to move from a farm into an
apartment where she'll be allowed to keep only one dog. She chose to
keep her 14-year-old, knowing that one would probably be the most
difficult to place, but she has to find new homes for her others. She
first tried to return Nina to the shelter from which she adopted her
years ago, but they said they would euthanize her as they euthanize any
dog over six (!!)..
Well, of course that was not an option,
so she found Aussie rescue. She left Nina with our rescue group after
many tears and hugs, she obviously always keeps her dogs for their
entire lives and this transition was heartbreaking for her. Poor Nina
was also very quiet, sad, and confused for her first few days, but now
she is blending into her foster home.
Nina's a little bit overweight after a winter of
inactivity. She has some minor mobility problems though we are seeing a
lot less creakiness as she loses weight and is getting more exercise now
that spring is here. She is already much better going up and down steps
then when she first arrived, and is now even thinking about attempting
the jump up into the back of the car.
Nina gets along wonderfully with
all dogs she's met, she is quiet and peaceful and meets politely, though
we're sure she'd thrive as an only dog and dedicated companion. Nina has
lived with kids, cats, horses and other dogs in the past. She's very
happy to meet all humans and loves to be petted. Nina is housebroken,
spayed, about 48 lbs., and current on all shots. She enjoys car rides,
lays right down and is quiet. Nina comes immediately when called. She is
content to lay quietly most of the day, though we hope she will find a
home where she'll be taken for regular walks to keep her fit and
healthy. She had her first trip to the dog park since she's been in her
foster home and seemed to be very happy to be able to explore and sniff
and greet people.
Please consider adding this lovely trouble-free lady
to your home! She has been a joy to foster and we hope that people can
look past her graying muzzle to see how special she is. She certainly
deserves a loving family to share her life. Nina is being fostered in
Cedar Rapids.

"Laura"
Lovable Laura was found wandering in a neighborhood. Nobody ever claimed her, and she's such a great girl. She's only a year old, loves to walk and play. She's skittish around other animals, so would probably need to be the only pet in the household. She's up to date on shots, spayed, and ready8 to be your best friend.

"Georgia"
Meet Georgia Simone, a sweet puppy in need of a good friend. She's about nine months old and we found her wandering homeless in Raleigh. She's been checked out by a vet and is healthy. Since she has an injured leg, she needs a family who will give her lots of love. She will have surgery - so will have 3 legs, and will also be spayed before adoption.
This extraordinarily gentle dog will give your family plenty of love and kisses. She is a petite dog and is great with children.
Please call 919-732-5601 if you are interested in this beautiful and sweet dog.

"Sugar"
|
Sugar was found in a driving rain storm. A scared pooch that needed a safe place from the lightning and thunder. After a month, having been spayed, micro chipped and all shots we located her family. She ran away from home a second time six weeks later and was picked up by animal control. The owners abandoned her a second time to her fate at the shelter. This poor pooch was left to die. We rescued her a second time.
Sugar is very gentle, affectionate, and intelligent, loves people, and adores going for walks, and car rides. She needs to be an only pet with a high fenced yard and lots of TLC. For more information contact Jcbaker1105@aol.com
