Buddy 3 - Buddy is a sheltie mix that came to us from a local animal shelter after he was surrendered by his owner.  He is about 6 years old, stands about 15 inches tall and weighs 25 pounds.  Buddy is housebroken, knows how to use a doggie door, gets along great with other dogs and is a people dog…he loves his people and wants to be close.  Buddy is neutered and up to date on all of his vaccinations, is heartworm negative and is on heartworm preventative.  He’s a very friendly companion and would love to have a home without cats or kittens.

Adoption Pending!

Judge - Judge is a handsome bi-black sheltie who was left in the overnight box at the shelter in Brownwood, Texas with a note that said the family was moving. He is a 1-2 year old male who weighs 25 pounds and is about 16 inches tall. He is a healthy boy and has been neutered and brought up-to-date on all vaccinations. He is heartworm negative and on heartworm preventative.

Judge is housebroken and does very well in the house. He loves to 'shadow' his human companions, so expect him to be wherever you are in the house. He has a sweet and mellow disposition and is exuberant and loving with everyone he meets!! Judge enjoys his walks and does very well on a leash. He is a fast learner and has already learned some basic commands like sit, wait, and shake hands. He is a very happy, energetic dog who loves to play either with the resident shelties or with toys. He would do very well in a home with other dogs. He would probably also do well as an only dog; but he might get bored if left alone all day.

Judge has not been 'tested' with children; but since he is so friendly, he would probably do well with them. He has not been around cats, so we are not sure how he would react to them. Judge loves to go on car rides and is an excellent rider. Judge is going to be an excellent companion for a lucky family out there!

Chevy - Chevy came to us just after Thanksgiving from a shelter in Temple.  Chevy had been turned in to the shelter as they were moving out of town.  Chevy is 7 years old, he was born in March of 2002.  Chevy is either a tri-colored sheltie with a badly burned coat or a mahogany sable.  He stands about 16 inches tall and weighs 35 pounds.  He is now up to date on all of his vaccinations and has been neutered.  He came to us with heartworms, kennel cough and hookworms.  He has been treated for the hookworms and the kennel cough and will soon start the painful heartworm treatment.  Chevy is very shy at first but once he gets to know you he is a love sponge that adores attention.  He likes to play ball and he gets along well with other dogs.  Chevy won’t be available until the latter part of March, 2010

Rowdy (was Fonzie) - Rowdy is a handsome sable sheltie who came to ASR from the Brownwood animal shelter. He is a 4-year old male who stands about 16 inches tall and weighs 43 pounds. He has been neutered and brought up-to-date on all his vaccinations. When Rowdy arrived, he was diagnosed with hookworms and heartworms. He has been treated for hookworms and will be finished with his heartworm treatment in a week. He will be ready for adoption on Feb 12th.

Rowdy is housebroken and has been a very good houseguest in his foster home. He is a sweet and lovable boy who wants to snuggle. He will put his head on his foster mom's lap when he wants attention. He enjoys tummy rubs and shows his contentment by laying down and 'talking'. He is a real "Love Bug"!!

Rowdy is a happy, energetic, and playful boy who likes to romp around with the two shelties in his foster home. He gets along fine with the dogs and the only time he has shown any aggressive behavior is when it comes to food and treats. Rowdy walks well on a leash and enjoys rides in the car. Rowdy is easily trained and already knows the "Sit" command; he is ready to learn other basic commands.

Rowdy would probably do best in a home where he would have a companion dog about the same size that he could play with. He would be lonely if left alone all day and would be bored. He would also do well as an only dog with a family who is home during the day. He has not been 'tested' with children or cats.

This sweet and friendly dog is ready to fall in love with his new 'furever' family!

Peaches - Peaches came in to us from Round Rock Animal Control. She is a spayed sable and white sheltie who is about 7 years old. Peaches came in with skin and ear problems, hookworms and her toenails that curled back into her feet. This is all as a result of poor care in her former home. She is being treated for the yeast infections and hookworms and will have a gorgeous glorious coat when it all grows back. Peaches is up to date on all of her vaccinations, she is heartworm negative and on heartworm preventative. She stands about 16 inches tall and is overweight at 38 pounds. Peaches let her rescuer know that she was so grateful for being rescued and would be ever so happy to walk out to the car.

Dixie - Dixie was turned over to rescue because of a family situation she had no control over.  Dixie is almost 11 years old, spayed, up to date on all of her vaccinations, heartworm negative and on heartworm preventative.  She is sable and white, stands about 13 inches tall and is a bit overweight at 35 pounds, yes, a diet is in her near future along with exercise.    Her foster dad says he has lots of deer and squirrels for her to chase.  We will be doing a teeth cleaning on her in the very near future.  Dixie is also hypothyroid which is easily controlled with a simple, inexpensive supplement given daily.  Dixie is a sweet lady that enjoys being close to her human and gets along very well with other dogs.  And the picture of Dixie with her back legs spread out, she isn’t uncomfortable….that is her favorite position.

Bear (was Otto) - Bear is a loveable sheltie with a gorgeous sable coat and impeccable manners. He is a polite 13 year old gentleman that gets along great with other dogs as well as cats. Bear also does well with children. He is housetrained and loves to just hang out with you. He is 16 inches tall and weighs about 35 pounds. He is neutered, up to date on vaccinations, heartworm negative and on hw preventative. He recently had a dental cleaning and a full blood workup and came back with a clean bill of health.
