**Please, read through the full bio, Indie is looking for a special home! **
Meet Indie! This adorable mini Aussie is sweet, fast, fun and smart! She is approximately 7 years old and in good health after a dental cleaning and five teeth extractions. She is fully vaccinated and spayed.
Indie loves to engage in a good game of tug with her foster mom and loves to solve puzzle toys to win treats. Her favourite pastime is watching the squirrels from the front window. Indie has completed level 1 scent detection and is now working in beginner 2 scent class and loves the job (along with the treats!). Indie walks fairly well on a leash with her harness and travels well in the car. She is crate trained and loves her licky mat. When you come home she barks to let you know she is waiting but will greet you with a sit to be let out. Indie is house trained and low maintenance in the house.
Indie is looking for a rural or low-density neighbourhood so she doesn’t have to meet dogs on her walks. Indie can be picky about her canine pals and likely will be best as an only dog. If you live close enough to see how your resident dog and Indie get along (because she does get along with some for sure) we are more than happy to make that happen. But for longer distance adoptions, that won't be something easily done, so having her as the only dog will be required.
Indie didn't have the training she required in her previous home and has been allowed to bark and lunge at the front window if people, cars or squirrels went by, creating a stressed-out pup who is slowly learning the calm way to watch the world go by. She gives a low rumble or short bark to alert her foster mom that someone is going by the house and gets rewarded with a treat for coming away.
She has also learned to react to strangers on the street, particularly those with dogs. She’s timid so figures the best defense is a good offense. Indie has now learned that sitting at the side of the road brings the treats out, which has taught her to ignore the scary things going by. This little gal was not exposed to many experiences so she is wary of new people. If ignored and given time to meet the new people at her own pace she will accept treats from them.
Indie requires a special home with adults only and a family or person willing to manage her interactions. A country or low-density neighborhood would be the best for Indie. Like a lot of herding dogs, she is protective of her home and yard. She must be put away when people come to the home and taken out on leash until she gets to know them slowly. She requires a fenced yard where she can safely play and relax with her people. Indie requires a person or couple who are willing to work with her and to take things slowly. People who don’t have a lot of parties or people coming and going all the time will suit her best.

ADOPTED!!! October 2021 BUCKY
Name: Bucky
Age: 6 months
Sex: Male
Housing: Single
Children: Teens
Dogs: Yes
Cats: No
*Please, read through the full bio, Bucky is looking for a special home! *
Meet the energetic Bucky! He is a 6 month old red merle, male Aussie. Bucky is up to date on his vaccines and will be neutered either prior to adoption and/or as part of the adoption contract. As you can expect from a puppy, Bucky is a busy boy with LOTS of energy! He still needs work on his manners and socialization so we are on the search for a home that will take the time to train him along with enrolling him in basic training classes. Bucky has separation anxiety so it is important that he is in a stable environment where his people are not constantly coming and going. He needs his people to be fully on-board with continuing to work with his separation anxiety and understand that this is a critical piece to finding Buck the perfect home.
Everything is new to Bucky on walks. His foster home is managing his interactions with the world with lots of treats and teaching him that new things are good. He is making such great strides and will need a home to continue working on this.
He is nervous meeting new dogs on leash but has done well with slow introductions and loves running and chasing his foster brother off leash (in a fenced yard). Bucky knows how to ‘sit’, ‘down’, ‘paw’ and is working on ‘drop it’.. sometimes an exchange of goods is required as he is a good businessman .
Bucky loves ALL kinds of toys. He enjoys playing fetch and tug with his foster parents but will also happily grab a chew toy and keep himself busy on his bed for a bit. He can be a bit mouthy when playing so it is important that his owners are respectful of his space and do not grab toys from his mouth. This has improved as he learns to trust his foster parents.
Bucky is a total velcro dog and loves cuddling on the couch and will follow you into the bathroom if you don't close the door quick enough. He will wake you up at 5:30am in the morning by lying directly on top of you. He enjoys going into his crate to eat or chillout but does not like being locked in it out of your sight.
Bucky is respectful when his foster parents are eating at the dining table but he does want a piece of the action if snacks are being eaten on the couch. He is learning to go lay on his bed and anxiously awaits a snack of his own. Bucky is quiet in the house but will occasionally let out a bark for attention or if his lunch is served late. He is very calm in the car and loves to take a snooze until he reaches his destination.
If you have lots of love and lots of patience for this sweet boy please fill out an adoption application found at www.aroo.ca
