He loves attention! He is active and playful and will make a wonderful companion. … ADOPTED ON 09-26-20:This handsome guy is Herbie, a 7 month old, 15 pound, Australian Shepherd/ Border Collie mix. His grey and black coloring is beautiful, and he has an adorable black spot on the top of his head, adding to his cuteness! Herbie was dropped off at the house of a neighbor of one of our wonderful rescuers down south in Louisiana. They were often gone away from home so they called our rescue partner about getting him into her rescue. Of course she took him in, and quickly realized what a “catch” Herbie was! He was a delightful, sweet boy, but to everyone's surprise, he was heartworm positive. This shocked the vet because Herbie is so young, but he is now already halfway finished with his treatment and is handling it like a little trooper. Herbie loves kids and gets along great with them. We always like to caution, however, that no child should ever be left unsupervised with any dog. Though we foster and get to know our dogs very well, children and dogs can sometimes be unpredictable. He is also a gentleman with cats and only occasionally likes to get a little sassy with the other dogs when it’s dinner time. This is probably due to his size... he mostly bluffs... trying to seem larger than his actual size! Knowing about the breed of the dogs you are considering often helps in choosing the right dog for your family. Crossbreeding an Australian Shepherd and Border Collie has led to the creation of an extremely intelligent and active crossbreed; the Border Collie Australian Shepherd Mix. Both breeds were originally bred as working dogs (to herd cattle and sheep) and were utilized for their obedience. The Border Collie is ranked as the most intelligent dog breed, so it comes as no surprise that the resulting mix is also very clever and fast learning! They are less suited to homes with limited space due to their high activity levels and need for mental stimulation, however, this energetic and faithful crossbreed may just be what your home is looking for. With both breeds classified in the herding group, it is no surprise that a mixture of both breeds produces a focused and intelligent hybrid. The Border Aussie is loyal, obedient and constantly on the go. Even as a companion animal, they can often be seen trying to herd their family by running in arching loops around them before dropping to the floor. This type of behavior only amplifies what they were originally bred to do and highlights how their herding instincts are still strong. This medium-size crossbreed can make a wonderful addition to a family home as well as suiting the lifestyle of a working dog. Australian Shepherds are sometimes known to be “nippy” due to their herding instincts, but Herbie has not exhibited that behavior at all with any children or adults he has met. Herbie would love to be an only dog and get all the attention. He loves attention! He is active and playful and will make a wonderful companion for an active family. He is waiting patiently for his treatments to be done so he can begin his journey north and join a forever family that will love him and smother him with that attention he loves so much!

It’s hard not to give them a second (and third!) look with Moe’s big, beautiful eyes, grey brindle coat, and those big, floppy ears and Cooper’s gorgeous gold and brown brindle fur and sweet face. They are 4 month old Louisiana Catahoula/Plot Hound mixes, and just the sweetest boys you’ll ever meet! Moe and Cooper were found at Central High School of Larto, La. by a teacher who happened to drop by the school to start opening her classroom. Either they had been dumped there by a previous heartless owner or abandoned elsewhere in that area and wandered to the school. The pups were huddled together laying in a mud hole, trying to get some relief from the hot Louisiana temperature of 100 degrees. They were tired, starving, and infested with fleas and ticks. These brothers clearly were attached to each other, not making a move without the other. This wonderful teacher with the huge heart knew she could not leave them there, so she put them both in her car. Both boys laid down immediately in front of the a/c vent! She took them home and got them right into a bath tub. After posting them on the high school website to see if anyone knew anything about them, the only information that came back was that they had been there for a while. It was clear they had been abandoned. Knowing that her aunt ran a rescue group, this kind woman offered to foster them with the help of the rescue. It became clear quickly that the two pups were bonded. This new foster mom had two dogs of her own, and when introduced in the yard, Cooper ran out first, turned around, and waited for Moe as if to say, “it’s OK, we’re safe now!” She says it was the sweetest thing she ever saw! Moe is smaller than his brother but he has a loud bark when he is chasing his foster mom’s dog, Dooley. He enjoys playing fetch with the other dogs, but really just loves running and playing. Moe enjoys napping on the couch, and is quite a snuggler. His foster mom says he is such a lover; when it’s time to go outside in the mornings he stays behind for just a second to give her kisses. Cooper is the big teddy bear that enjoys diving his head into your lap to get some scratches! He also loves to “play ball” with Dooley but he really just likes to chase the other pups like Moe does. Cooper loves to chew on a ball that he and Moe share nicely. It’s a wonder what Cooper would do without Moe because he has to know where he is at all times. One thing that Cooper really enjoys is water. He will sneak into the pool outside to lay down every time they go out if no one is watching! Knowing more about the breed of a potential new family member helps adopters make an educated and informed decision. The Catahoula Leopard Dog is a multi-purpose working dog that is well-muscled and powerful, but with a sense of agility and endurance. They are serious while working and playful at home. This breed is a medium-large, short-coated dog, known for its many varied coat and eye colors and patterns. Catahoulas are the only breed of dog to have historically originated in the state of Louisiana. The breed requires firm guidance and early socialization, as they can be independent, territorial, and protective. Once they know their place in the family unit, they are affectionate, loyal, and gentle. Also called the Catahoula Hog Dog, they are used as stock dogs, tree dogs, watchdogs, guard dogs, and of course as loyal companions. The Plott Hound, a hound with a curious name and a unique history, is a rugged, relentless hunting dog who is a mellow gentleman at home but fearless, implacable, and bold at work. This hound is a streamlined, long-tailed, light-footed hunter standing as high as 25 inches at the shoulder. The coat comes in an array of brindle-stripe patterns, from black flecked with gold to flaming orange and russet, in addition to some solid colors. The medium-length ears hang gracefully, and the leather of the nose, lips, and eye rims are black, setting off an inquisitive and confident expression. The Plot Hound is a loyal, intelligent and alert breed. Both are hard workers, wonderful companions, and loyal family pets These brothers are inseparable. They are the best of friends, and can’t do anything without the other. Anywhere they go, Cooper always turns to see where Moe is and to wait for him. Cooper loves to sit on Moe, and Moe is so mellow, he just puts up with it! Moe reassures Cooper when loud noises frighten him. They both love to eat ice cubes and are perfect gentlemen during bathtime. They currently live with a cat, Honey, and are very gentle with her when they play. Foster mom can’t stress enough what amazing pups they are. They are completely housebroken and very smart. They learned quickly to sit by the door to go out, and are learning commands easily. They are not food aggressive with humans or the other dogs. In fact, when Cooper steals Moe’s bone right from his mouth, Moe just whines! At night, they climb on the bed with foster mom and dad to snuggle, then jump down to get into their own beds for the night. Adoption Donation: $450.00 Each includes transport and vaccinations for a year except the Lyme Vaccination. The southern states do not have Lyme Disease and therefore, do not have the vaccination to give to the dogs. Moe and Cooper are very affectionate with their humans as well as each other. They are a bonded pair, so a home where they could continue to be together would be ideal. They would do best in a home with a large, fenced yard, as they need lots of exercise, and experienced dog parents. They are young, so they would probably do very well with children. However, we always like to caution that no dog should ever be left unsupervised with small children, no matter how well-behaved the dogs or children are. If you are an active family with lots of love to give, consider these boys. You will be opening your heart and home to a pair of wonderful pups, and they will be sure to give you years of joy in their forever home that they truly deserve!

Our dogs are waiting for that ideal forever home where they will be cherished as deserving family members. It's sad these second chances are even necessary for these dogs, but we are committed to them and will devote the time and energy to their re-homing, and not just move them to save more dogs. We seek good matches, as we don't want to re-home the dog again. These animals have already endured more than they should have, and through no fault of their own. Our organization is honest and forthright, and we appreciate the same in return from applicants. It's that winning combination of reciprocal trust and respect that allows for successful placements to be made. Happy adopters translate to happy dogs, and that's our goal!
