"Gwendolyn" Gwendolyn is a 6 month old blue heeler female pup that was surrendered due to relocation. She was originally adopted from the shelter, and well cared for, thanks to her Indiana family. Australian Cattle Dog or herding breed experience is required to adopt our pups. Our adoption fee covers the first puppy shots, spaying/neutering, deworming and microchipping.

"Squeaker" Fostered in Coldwater, MI Squeaker comes into rescue from Indiana, along with Cadence and Red Baron. Squeaker is around 4 months old and full of energy and would need a family that is willing to work with her. She watches everything and has great focus on whatever she is watching. Squeaker is doing great with her crate & leash training. We are housetraining her now and she is catching on quickly. We don't have cats, so I don't know how they would handle being around them. My grandkids (ages 1 & 3) have no problem with either dog, so they would be good around kids. Australian Cattle Dog or herding breed experience is required to adopt our pups. Our adoption fee covers the first puppy shots, spaying/neutering, deworming and microchipping. The pups are being fed a premium puppy food, that they seem not to be used to.

"Cadence" Fostered in Coldwater, MI Cadence is about a year old blue heeler female. She is new to rescue, along with a 4 month old pup, Squeaker and a red heeler male, Red Baron. Cadence is very hyper and gets very excited when she is first out of the crate. Her foster Mom attributes that to she just wants to find someone to love her. Cadence needs a firm hand to teach her some manners. Cadence needs to learn to settle down, before we can love on her. When she is in the moment, she is a sweetie. She is doing good with her leash training, but it is a little bit slower housebreaking her. She is very skinny and we hope to get some weight on her. She gets along with the resident female dog, but seems to be bossy with the male. The male is very skittish, so it doesn't take much to send him hiding. The foster also thinks she tries to protect Squeaker. We don't have cats, so I don't know how they would handle being around them. My grandkids (ages 1 & 3) have no problem with either dog, so they would be good around kids. Australian Cattle Dog or herding breed experience is required to adopt our pups.

"Tanner" is Available "Tigger" Adoption Pending! Tigger and his brothers are 5-1/2 months old little bundles of energy, hence the name Tigger. Boing. Boing. The pups are left from a litter that did not sell. We are working on manners and leash training, and we have been told that they were raised around kids. Tanner is not as outgoing as Tigger, but we are working on gaining his trust. Tanner is eating well (really well) and was vetted on April 12th. We see a pup that wants to do the right thing, but is fearful. The way to this pups heart is through his stomach. He watches what we do, so when he learns to trust he will be a great and loyal friend. Yes, he will take some extra training, but he is worth it.

"Marlee" the Deaf Female Pup is Available "Miss Maude" Deaf Pup Sibling Adopted! We are looking to place 2 deaf female puppies into special homes. The pups will remain with their siblings until the end of April, and after their vetting, they will be ready for their new homes. A deaf ACD pup is a typical ACD puppy and will go through the normal growing up stages, they just can't hear. They will be good at reading body language, which canines are good at anyways, hearing or not. Adoption of a deaf pup requires a fenced yard to keep them safe or a plan in place that is fool proof. Sign language and/or deaf dog experience a plus. These pups are friendly and are already starting to have good eye contact. A hearing dog companion can help but is not a rescue requirement. Australian Cattle Dog or herding breed experience is required to adopt our pups. Our adoption fee covers the first puppy shots, spaying/neutering, deworming and microchipping. The puppies have been fed a premium puppy food and their rear dewclaws have been removed. Click on Marlee's photo to see her photo album.

"Eleanor" Adoption Pending! Eleanor and her brother Otis are blue heeler pups around 8 months old. The pups are shy at first meeting, but quickly warm up and like the attention. They act like so many things are new to them, including being in a crate, so they have lots to learn. The pups will be available for adoption after their vetting on February 14, 2008, but you can meet them anytime. Eleanor seems to be afraid of some adult males and will bark at them at first, yet she quickly learns when I tell she is fine. She is getting better, because when we've had visitors to the rescue, she has went right up to the men for attention. Eleanor sometimes tries to rush the gates when we go in and out, but we tell her no and she does stop and listen. In the winter, Ellie can also jump over the 4 foot fencing because of all the snow we had, but does not even try to go over the 6 foot. She doesn't run away, and will come right up to me when I call her. Now that the snow and ice is gone, she is staying inside her exercise yard with the 4 foot fence. Ellie does get along with the other rescues and does try to shadow (bond) me when I am out in her yard. She has good qualities and the above mentioned training issues will correct with a strong leader that wishes to adopt her. A little patience in training will get you a loyal blue heeler girl. Ellie is showing us that she is smart and willing to learn. Australian Cattle Dog or herding breed experience is required to adopt our pups. Our adoption fee covers the puppy shots, spaying/neutering, deworming and microchipping. Click on Eleanor's photo to see her photo album.
