I have some wonderful dogs retiring soon.  They are looking for their perfect homes.  If you see something that you like, please read the description.  These are adult dogs and aren't as easy to shape and mold exactly as you want like a puppy is.  If you're looking for an adult, do yourself, the dog and me all a favor and pick your match by the dog's personality other than their looks!  PLEASE call anytime to ask as many questions as you want!  I want these guys to have the perfect homes.

I will describe the dogs to the best of my ability.  If you want to find the perfect adult dog, call me!  Tell me what you're looking for. This is sometimes easiest.  If you can tell me about yourself, I can help you pick the dog that best fits you.

Things to remember:

Please remember, these are Aussies, not Labs.  They don't just love, lick and wag at everyone they see. 
Aussies are very loyal, obedient and live to please their human.
With this comes the being naturally stand-offish of strangers.  This is breed standard.  Some warm up faster than others.
Some will be afraid of loud children, while others will welcome it.
Aussies are sensitive.  It doesn't take much to discipline them.  While you have to continuously chase a lab around with the shoe it keeps chewing on every day, a firm word and occasionally a firm hand is all it takes to convince an aussie that you're not pleased and that's the end of it.  Aussies live to please you and react better to positive reinforcement.  Please do your research on the breed, especially before deciding on an adult dog. 
Puppies adjust well to almost any situation.  While adult dogs can take more time, patience and understanding.
Knowing the dog's personality that you're choosing will help a great deal.  Please remember to keep that your FIRST priority. 
You'll be happier and so will the dog. 
These dogs have taken care of me, now it's my turn to take care of them.  They aren't just going to the first person to call.  They are going to find homes that fit them, where they can be happy and live out the rest of their lives.

Price?  Their prices are simply the cost of Spay/Neuter, final vet check, a teeth cleaning and grooming.
About $400 or less.

Shipping is separate. Pick up so you can meet the dog is preferred, but not a must if we both feel the home is a fit.

*While I don't mean to discourage any calls or inquiries, I DO NOT sell my retire dogs to just anyone.  People that call just wanting the blue one for $150 do not get one of my dogs.  These dogs are individuals and the rest of their life depends on me finding them a good home.  They don't have a say in the matter, it's up to me. PLEASE understand that they all have individual personalities.  As an older dog this is the MOST IMPORTANT THING.  If you have ideas in mind for what you want for a dog (agility, working in a nursing home, a drug dog...) or if you have young kids, please consider a puppy, they adapt much easier to any situation.  Puppies fit in almost any home while an adult Aussie needs a home to fit them.  I'd be more than happy to explain or help you pick which one fits you.  This way everyone is happy.  You don't want a dog that you'll be disappointed in and I'd rather send you one that is exactly what you were dreaming of.

Cooter has found his forever home in Louisiana!  He will be making his final appearance with me at the ASDR show here in May.  A wonderful young lady named Lauren drove all of the way here to meet him and it was love at first sight for both of them.  Cooter isn't that old, but he has been a huge part of my breeding program, a wonderful pet and entertainer.  I have kept several of his puppies, grand puppies and great grand-puppies!  He deserves nothing less than what he's getting.  His person, who will be his one and only.  A warm spot on the couch and a twice monthly visit to the doggy spa!  I wanted the perfect home for him and it looks like I found it!  Lauren is coming to the show in May to help me show him and others.  She'll be taking him home from there! He has a few litters due between now and then.  If you've ever wanted a 'Cooter baby' you better look now! Thanks Lauren!  Maybe we'll even see you and Cooter at more dog shows in the future!

 

 

As of right now, all of my older adult girls have found homes. 
Thanks for looking at my older girls.  :)

 

Please note: these dogs don't have to go anywhere.  They can live out the rest of their lives running loose out here.  I just prefer them to have their own spot on the couch.
There comes a point when all of the couches and chairs are full that the doors have to be closed and some of these guys have to stay outside for the evening. 
I would love nothing more for them to have their own lives with their new family who adores them and has just another dog or two to devote their time to.

On FB:
Lots to do on my website tonight. But in good company! Tommy, Monster, Agent, Leah, Furby, Baby Girl, Lovey (the resident rescue poodle), Monster, Shorty, Peggy Sue, Jasmine, Chica, Doodle, Sexy and Barbie. Not in the picture is Possum, Maybelline, Mali and Dennis. It's a full house tonight! Lovin' every minute of it!

It's so important to me that people considering adopting one of these guys understand that these are not just dogs to me.
They are family. They deserve the very best.  They are dogs, they don't have the power to make decisions for themselves.
They don't have a voice to say what they want or don't want.
God has trusted me with these babies and it's my job to make sure that where they go is in their best interest.

Here are a couple of numbers of a family (daughter, mother and grandmother) who have adopted adult dogs from me.
Please feel free to call them with any questions you might have!
