Description
Dog Breed: Golden Retriever / Australian Shepherd / Mixed (medium coat). Bear is the sweetest, calmest, most wonderful dog. He is an amazing companion. Poor boy is about 5 to 7 years old and 50 lbs, and was dumped on the side of a road in SC. Then, sweet Bear curled up (as seen in photo) and waited for his family to come back for him - they never did. He was there for over a day, til a nice person took him home and called us. Bear is just the best guy, and so much more handsome in person. Great with all people, dogs, and cats. A must meet, for he will steal your heart for sure. He would make a great support dog or therapy dog. Truly wonderful. LOVABLE MUTTS ADOPTION CENTER (Pregnant Dog Rescue) is a private, in home, all breed rescue facility. We exist only on the kindness of your donations and adoptions! We pride ourselves on being an HOLISTIC center and feed only holistic foods and various vitamins and supplements to all of our dogs. LOVABLE MUTTS ADOPTION CENTER dogs are well socialized, very friendly, and in wonderful health. We stand by our pups/dogs, and give 10 days for a refund and almost always take our dogs back at any age of their lives (often depends on dog)! LMAC has an application screening process. All applicants are asked to provide vet references, personal references, and a home visit. We pride ourselves in matching up the right dog with the right home. Sometimes this happens quickly and sometimes it might take awhile. We hope you understand and are willing to wait for the perfect pup for your situation. We reserve the right to turn applicants down and to change our mind about a suitable match, for we are only concerned about what is best for our dogs. Also note that we arrange our visiting hours around your schedule, as this is a private, in home facility. We respond to all inquiries promptly, so if you have any trouble sending us an email, or have not heard back from us within 24 hours, please, CONTACT US AGAIN and check your spam! (We all know how emails can be at times!) Our dogs are spayed or neutered (if old enough), up to date on vaccines, wormed, heartworm tested, and free of fleas and ticks. We temperament test our dogs and they are all suitable for many family situations. Our dogs are well mannered, know some basic commands, and are usually housebroken within a week of being with us (if old enough). They are in our family/home situation at this time (not in kennels or crates, although most are crate trained) and are worked with daily. All of our dogs do well with other dogs and many do well with cats. Adoption donations vary with age, breed, vetting, and training of the dog, and range from $250 to $695 (most being $595). (We do not tend to place puppies or small dogs with kids under 6 and reserve the right to match who WE feel would be the best homes for our dogs.)

Breed overview
Overview:
The Australian Retriever, a delightful hybrid of the Australian Shepherd and Golden Retriever, is a relatively new designer breed gaining popularity for its winning combination of traits. Originating in the United States, this intelligent and eager-to-please dog typically sports a medium-length, often wavy or feathered coat in a variety of colors, including merle, black, and various shades of gold or red. Physically, they are well-proportioned, often inheriting the Golden's friendly expression with the Aussie's alert eyes. Temperament-wise, they are renowned for being loyal, affectionate, and highly trainable, making them excellent companions for active families. While their energy levels and need for mental stimulation make them better suited for houses with yards rather than small apartments, their adaptability and gentle nature usually make them wonderful with children and other pets. Potential health considerations can include those common to their parent breeds, such as hip and elbow dysplasia, and certain eye conditions, highlighting the importance of responsible breeding practices.
