Andean, another of the bear puppies found her forever family. Her new family’s previous Aussie, Reuben, crossed the rainbow bridge about a year ago. He had grown up alongside their son, and while they all needed time to grieve, they all agreed it was time for their family to grow again by four paws.

When they came to meet the bear puppies, Andean, now Bonnie Lee Bear, made the choice for them. She crawled right into their son’s lap and decided that was her forever spot. From that moment, it was clear she had found her people. Bonnie is settling into her new life with a big yard, a dog‑friendly community, and a family who adores her. She’s a pretty chill pup most of the time… except for her hilarious 9pm zoomies! We couldn’t be happier knowing Bonnie has been blessed with such a loving home and that her family has been again blessed with the unconditional love and joy a dog gives. Here’s to a lifetime of snuggles, zoomies, and adventures with her new family.

Sweet senior Stevie is trying to decide which dog on our November raffle quilt looks the most like him. This gorgeous quilt features 11 handsome dogs on a beautiful blue background.

Look at this sweet face!

Happy and sweet senior pup Scooter needs a forever family. Somewhere between 10 and 14 years old, Scooter is pretty energetic for his years, but he certainly loves relaxing too. He's an Australian shepherd who really enjoys playing ball. He's all about the chase, but isn't always convinced it's a good idea to bring the ball back!

Scooter is very good in the house. He doesn't chew or bother anything. He's potty trained, but needs plenty of breaks to go outside. He gets along great with his canine foster sibling and pretty much adores everyone he meets.

Scooter would love a home with someone around a lot. He absolutely wants to be near his person as much as he can. He would love a home with a physical, fenced yard. He'd be fine with another dog but would be totally OK as the only pup in the house.

Sweet Scooter is being fostered in the St. Louis area.

Introducing the "autumn drinks” puppies! They were surrendered by a breeder because they have vision and hearing impairments, but these double merle mini Aussie puppies are sweet and so silly and fun. Hot Toddy is the fast and furious boy and he’s being fostered in St. Louis. Apple Cider (red merle) and her smaller sister Maple Fizz (blue merle) are the energetic girls and they are fostered in metro Atlanta. They were all pretty shy when they got here but now love all the toys and have incredible zoomies. Thanks to Deaf Dogs Rock for sponsoring these perfect puppies. We are so excited that they are Speaklings!

Congratulations to Slushie, who has found her forever home! Her new family says she’s perfect and exactly what they were missing. They even kept her name (though their niece lovingly calls her Sushi!).

They were especially excited to adopt her because a family member has Australian Shepherds — including one who’s deaf and blind — making Slushie feel right at home.

With hopes for a future sibling, Slushie's life is sure to be full of love, play, and adventure.
