CalicoKat Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 YAY!!! I made the application without a specific doggie in mind so now I need to look through their pages and find one. Update on our poochon Snickers: He found a place to poo & pee last night, finally! :D He's avoiding all the place he and Gypsy used to go. And he's feeling better too.

Remudamom Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 Oh fun! We had an Aussie years ago. She was a sweet dog. You should put a link up so we can help you shop! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dirty ethel rackham Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 Oh, I love Aussies! So beautiful, friendly, and smart! We wanted to adopt one, but thought better of it, being new to dog ownership:). Didn't think it was wise to adopt a dog smarter than we are.

Heather in AL Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 Aw, that's great news! I also want to see pics.... Poor Snickers. It's so had to see our pets grieve for their missing buddies. I'm glad to hear he is beginning to accept his loss. A new playmate should help, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indigomama Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 Yay!!!!! We just got approved to adopt a Great Dane through a breed specific rescue. I am soooooooo excited! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WillametteMom Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 My childhood pet was an Aussie (she lived to the age of 19!) and one of our current dogs is an Aussie/rough collie mix. Both were/are absolute sweethearts and completely devoted to their families. I can't wait to see pics! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CalicoKat Posted February 10, 2012 Author Share Posted February 10, 2012 Just to put it out there--there will be a high energy Aussie to rehome in about 7 months in San Diego! He even comes with his own cat! Too far of a drive I'm thinking. We're in the midwest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CalicoKat Posted February 10, 2012 Author Share Posted February 10, 2012 Oh fun! We had an Aussie years ago. She was a sweet dog. You should put a link up so we can help you shop! Ruby We went to meet her today. All seven of us. She walked into the room and climbed in my lap. :D DH said, "I don't need to see the other dog." :001_smile: Then We met Rosie.. She walked in the room and dropped down on her belly and crawled over to me. She's very sweet, but so very timid. Submission peed. We brought Snickers back to do a sniff & greet. He growled once, but then they swapped sniffs a couple times more. I think he approves. My mother came back with me. She said if I don't get her she will. :D Maybe I shouldn't take the first dog I meet? She's still a puppy. A lot more learning to do not to mention the house training. But she's a puppy so we'll have a long time together. What to name her? Honey, Sugar, Lucy, ....... Tonight's dinner discussion was very animated. I think it should be a candy name. But I don't know what. Tomorrow at 1 p.m. we call back to hear if they agree that she's a match. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ottakee Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 We have an Aussie (possibly mix) and she is GREAT. They do NEED EXERCISE though. Ours can easily handle a 4 mile walk and have energy left over. Ours runs around with the horses outside, plays with the cat and chickens, and then comes in the house and crashes for a while.
