Jack in KY
Jack is back! He was adopted, but is now looking for a forever home again.
Jack is 5 years old, 50 lbs and neutered. Jack is an absolute sweetheart. He was originally from an Amish farm before he came to NESR. His foster just adored him. He’s friendly with people and children, likes to play with dogs, ignored her chickens and was good with her cat.
Jack was a bit too active for his adoptive home and too attentive to those cats. They were unable to housebreak him. So he needs a home that is experienced with housebreaking an adult dog.
For information on Jack email Kim staroseranch@jps.net or fill out an adoption application
here .

These dogs are in foster care with NESR but are not yet ready for
adoption. We hope this allows you to follow the progress of
these dogs as they prepare to move toward adoption. |
Peety in CA
Five-year-old Peety needed a new home after his owner’s house burned down, and he could no longer afford a place where he could keep a dog. Though Peety has not been with his foster very long, we know he is housebroken, and alerts by barking to let you know he needs to go outside. He’s good with strange dogs, and our foster reports he also gets along with her dog-savvy cat. He likes pets from people he knows and is good with grooming, brushing especially, and quietly accepts work on his feet. With a little bit of time, he also warmed up to our foster’s father. Our evaluator found that he loved learning to play Frisbee, and likes toys more generally.
Peety’s first owner lived in an isolated location, and we think he may have learned some bad defensive habits around strangers as a consequence. He will need management around strangers in the home at first. On neutral ground, he’s fine with other people and dogs. In the home, he’d do best with another female, or as an only dog.
Peety is still a ways away from being adoptable, but he has a lot of positives already, and looks like it won’t be long before he’s ready for a forever home. Peety is currently in the Bay Area. To inquire further about Peety, send an email to Rob at rlm@scareduck.com with “Peety” in the subject line.

Annie in VT
NESR Annie is a 6 year old Border Collie who is much more ESy than her intensely focused, high speed relatives. She’s a very sweet natured dog who was rescued from a rough situation and it will be a couple months before she’ll be ready for adoption. Right now she is super shy with humans, a little chubby (53 pounds, should be 45 or so), and very curious (but still hesitant) about toys and treats. She gets along well with her new “brothers” and watches them closely trying to figure out how dogs & humans can get along. She isn’t convinced yet, but she has started carefully taking bits of roast beef from patient people. She walks very well on leash, has been very good about getting all the mats and other stuff brushed out of her coat, hasn’t had an accident after the first two nights, and has never barked at all in the time she’s been here.
She’s getting spayed in a couple weeks. Our goals after that are for her to continue to learn to trust humans.
If you would like to know more about Annie, please contact jan@caledoniamission.org Please put NESR Annie in the subject line.

Other Rescue Organizations
|
|
The following dogs are with other Rescue Organizations and are possibly not English Shepherds but they are English Shepherdish enough to be listed here. All adoptions are handled by the fostering Rescue Group. Please contact them or visit their web sites for more info about these dogs and other fine dogs they have in rescue!
PetFinder is a website devoted to listing dogs from shelters and rescue groups around the country. You can search PetFinder by breed or region to find the right dog for your family.
There are often English Shepherds listed on the PetFinder pages although sometimes the breed identification seems a little iffy. However, here are some dogs currently on the PetFinder website who are either ES or ESy. NESR has no connections with any of these organizations and makes no promises regarding the dogs listed here from PetFinders. We offer this list in the interest of one stop shopping...
If you have any questions about finding what you're looking for on PetFinders email Lynn for help.
