My story

0756 Chicago, now called Sunday, is fostered in Wayland, MI. Hello potential adopters! Introducing our handsome boy Sunday who has been in his foster home since the end of January 2025. He was found as a stray on the streets of Chicago and spent a few days at their shelter.  He was sprung on Sunday, hence his name!  Sunday is a red tri standard male Australian Shepehrd with double blue eyes, a bobtail, and freckles. He has been slimmed down from 67 lbs. to a healthier 60 lbs.  He is estimated to be 2 - 3 years old.   Sunday's love for food is unmatched and makes training a breeze!  He is a ball enthusiast who would love someone that is willing to join him in fetch sessions. He will give you the ball or drop it on you, so no reaching required!  Sunday also loves car rides, hikes, sniffaris, playtime, and simply being with you. He is ready to go on adventures with you or just hang out on the couch! Sunday's ideal home would be with either a single adopter looking for a 4-legged best friend or an active couple. Sunday would do best in a home with no kids or other pets as he loves to have undivided attention!  Sunday does like to guard some of the bowls and doorways, but with verbal corrections, this has greatly improved.  Sunday is a work in progress, as we like to call it and he is fostered with a trainer, who is happy to help show you what works well for this handsome guy.  Sunday has not been a big fan of being held or restrained but with food and practice he is doing better.  His intelligence, energy, and playful nature make him a good addition for the right home. For Sunday, the right home would be someone with some herding breed experience and an ability to continue positive reinforcement training to help him build on the wonderful progress his foster home has started.  If you would like to learn more about Sunday and his progress, we would love to chat with you!  Sunday is neutered, up-to-date on all vaccinations, heartworm negative, microchipped and receiving monthly preventatives for fleas, ticks and heartworms.  Proof of heartworm prevention for any current or previous pets is required to adopt from our organization.  For more information on our adoption process or to complete an adoption application, please visit our website at www.MidwestAustralianShepherdRescue.org. NOTE:  All of our dogs live in foster homes with volunteers so we need an approved application on file to set up a meet with a dog you might have an interest in.  Please visit our website for more information on our adoption process, our adoption fees and a link to our adoption application.  We pride ourselves on matches that work for both the dog and your family.  MASR is here for your support, advice and safety net for our dogs for the remainder of their lives.  www.MidwestAustralianShepherdRescue.org ##2288052##

If you have any questions or would like to adopt 0756 Chicago aka Sunday, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
