Description
Dog Breed: Australian Shepherd. Adoption Fee: 185.00. Hazel came to OPA from a local shelter as a very skinny stray momma with two adorable pups, Snowball and Diva. She knows basic commands like sit and no. She is very quiet unless you see an animal on your walk or you’re not taking her out to go potty. She does have two different color eyes. My husband and I both thinks she’s a fantastic dog and loves to be pet. She’ll stay beside you forever. She loves her people.

Overview:
The Australian Shepherd, despite its name, actually originated in the western United States during the 19th century, bred primarily for herding livestock on ranches. These striking dogs are medium-sized with a sturdy build, often sporting captivating merle coats (blue or red) and piercing blue, amber, or marbled eyes, sometimes with two different colors (heterochromia). Known for their exceptional intelligence and high energy, Aussies possess a strong work drive and thrive on having a "job" to do, whether it's agility, obedience, or extensive exercise. Their temperament is generally loyal, affectionate, and good-natured with their families, though they can be reserved with strangers. Due to their high exercise requirements and need for mental stimulation, they are best suited for active families or individuals with ample outdoor space and a commitment to training; apartment living is generally not ideal. Potential owners should also be aware of common health concerns like hip and elbow dysplasia and certain eye conditions, including Collie Eye Anomaly (CEA) and Progressive Retinal Atrophy (PRA).
