Description:

I am Shelby. I am an 8-year-old Australian Shepherd. My foster Mom keeps saying I am one of the best dogs she has ever met.  I am fully trained.  If you miss my cue, I am happy to bark at you that I need to go out. I know commands and some hand commands and I walk amazing on a leash. I am a typical shepherd. I am protective of my people. So, I bark at strangers when they seem too close. I have great herding abilities. Currently I herd four older kids.  As you can see my appearance has changed since my foster Mom picked me up. I was wearing my winter coat, which you know in August isn’t any fun. I have had a hair cut and because of my coat I have some issues with my skin. The doctor gave me some medicine and I feel lots better now. I LOVE to cuddle. On the couch, in the car, and in your bed. I love car rides and will jump right in and try to drive. My foster Mom thinks I haven’t had much love in the past because I soak it up.

I would do best in a home that is a little busy. More hands to pet me. I am happy to keep up with you. I am probably best as the only dog. 

If you are interested in meeting me. Please fill out the attached application and my nice lady will reach out to arrange for us to meet. Look forward to seeing you soon. Love Shelby…

Last Day Dog Rescue now microchips all animals before adoption. Microchips are implanted between the animals shoulder blades and are a permanent form of identification. The microchips are registered to Last Day Dog Rescue with the adopter's info added once adopted. If the animal is ever lost and slips his/her collar/tags the microchip allows the finder to know who to contact if scanned for a microchip. Animals MUST still have a collar with tags on at all times. Per our contract, we take all our animals back if for any reason you can't keep your adopted animal.

Please understand the statements about this animal are based upon the foster home's evaluation of the animal. The animal might behave differently (negatively or positively) in your home. While the animal might be good with the current foster’s dogs, cats, children, etc., it may not be with your animal(s) or children. The animal may be housebroken or litter trained in the home of the foster but may relapse in your home. The animal is represented to the public as it performs in the foster home and any statements made regarding the animal are conditional to that foster home setting. Please understand that statements made regarding this animal are simply overviews and are not guaranteed.

The Petfinder.com system requires that we choose a predominant breed or breed mix for our animals. Visual breed identification in animals is unreliable so for most of the animals we are only guessing at predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each animal as an individual and will do our best to describe each of our animals based on personality, not by breed label.

Thank you for looking through our list of animals needing forever homes and choosing rescue first. We appreciate you stopping by.
