Aussie Rescue

He is your friend, your partner, your defender, your Australian Shepherd.
You are his life, his love, his leader.
He will be yours, faithful and true, to the last beat of his heart!
You owe it to him to be worthy of that devotion!

Aussie rescue is made up of kind-hearted and very dedicated volunteers who provide foster homes and find loving, permanent homes for Aussies that have been abandoned, surrendered to shelters, or who have lost their families for a variety of reasons. Dogs accepted into Aussie rescue are carefully matched up with the right adoptive family.

Looking for a great family pet? Consider adopting an Aussie!
