IF THIS LISTING IS STILL UP, the pet is still available for adoption! Inquiries asking about availability will not be answered. E-mails or contact forms that are submitted prior to completing an adoption application will not be answered. ***Please read this first, as it answers the majority of questions we receive*** Please do not contact us about specific dogs until you have completed our Adoption Application FIRST --- located at www.aussierescue.org Once we receive your application, we will contact you. This chapter receives only applications from applicants living in Texas and Oklahoma. If you live outside of TX or OK, you will need to contact our organizations Management Team first: [email protected]. Out-of-state adoptions are considered on a case-by-case basis. Our organization requires prospective adopters to complete an approval process prior to meeting with dogs in our program. This includes: *Completion of Adoption Application *Veterinarian Check *Reference Checks (non-relatives) *Home Visit Our ultimate goal is to screen and counsel potential homes to the best of our ability in an effort to find the most perfect match and fit for their lifestyle. Please keep in mind that color and appearance of the available dog is last on our priority list, and will have no bearing on adoption placement decisions. Please refrain from contacting members of our organization or asking about specific dogs/potential matches until after your screening process has been completed and approved. ***$300 Adoption Fee*** -------------------------------------------------------- ABOUT DOTTIE: Rep: Laura Kempf / [email protected] Dottie is located in Bryan, TX and it is required that you travel there to meet her in person within 10 days of application approval if you want to adopt (exceptions can be made for out-of-state applicants). We do need the entire party to be involved when meeting available dogs, including every family member and dog(s) that currently live in your home. Dottie was surrendered to our organization with her 4 puppies after her owner experienced a lifestyle change due to divorce. She is a 3yo Australian Shepherd female that is ~40lbs and fully-vetted. Prior to rescue, she lived the majority of her life outdoors, so she is currently learning all the rules and manners of being an indoor companion. She is learning very quickly and is doing well! Dottie has done well with other dogs except for the occasional attempt to resource guard. Her foster mom has worked on this with her and she is improving. She has very minimally moved some cattle, but she is not good with fowl. She is still very new to our program, so we are still getting to know her. Please check back for continued updates!
