Leila (New Jersey)
Leila (New Jersey) is a beautiful Red
Merle "Jersey Girl", with beautiful amber eyes, about 45 lbs.
She is 4 years old and is extremely affectionate and great with her family's
10 & 7 year old children. She also loves other children and animals. Her
owner has developed bad allergies and asthma and this is the only reason this
lovely girl is available. This is also why she was shaved, to try to
help with the asthma. Her coat is growing in beautifully now. Leila loves to
have her legs and belly scratched and loves to be with her people, playing or
watching TV. Leila knows sit, stay, down, fetch and paw and is not a
chewer. She is used to using a pet door to go in and out to the yard
where she loves to sun bathe and watch delivery trucks come and go.
Preference will be given to homes with a fenced yard so she can continue to
enjoy similar things. She is a wonderful girl and her owners have taken
great care of her. They are heartbroken over having to re-home her and
want to make sure she gets to another loving forever home. She is has
been well and lovingly cared for. She does have a unknown allergy and
gets hot spots on her inside hock only. This is managed with spray and antihistamines.
Her owner will be happy to provide you with her papers and other records.
If you are
interested in adopting Leila, please contact: Nancy Zion @ nancy.zion@gmail.com |
Blu (New York)
Blu (New York) is a Miniature
Australian Shepherd and is 30 pounds of love and fun. Very warm and friendly loves
other dogs and people. Very pretty with ice blue eyes about 8-10 months old
and very smart. Blu is deaf, and we think has most of his sight. If you are
looking for a social dog to let off leash in the park this is not your dog.
He can never be let off leash in an open area, but if you are looking for a
cuddly fur baby you can pamper and love this is he. He just loves, love and
attention. He is very energetic so a dog run or totally fenced in yard is
fine. You must also be willing to learn sign language to be able to
communicate with him. Blu
is being fostered in New Jersey and is available for adoption in the NYC
metro area.
If you are
interested in adopting Blu, please contact: Margret at SoftestPaws@aol.com for an adoption
application from White Angels Hope Rescue |

sized female Aussie looking for a home.

dogs very long, so please consider this young lady!

interested in Star, please contact: Stanley, VA 540-778-2101 |
Patches (West Virginia)
Patches (West Virginia)
is a
very pretty Golden Retriever/Australian Shepherd mix male. He is a sweet
fellow who would love a big fenced yard and a home to call his own. He's a
little on the shy side and will need some socialization. Patches is
up-to-date on his shots and is neutered.
Please consider adopting Patches, he is still in need of a home. He is
living with his senior owner who still would love to find him a loving home,
the owner is going to keep Patches’ sisters.
