Description
Dog Breed: Australian Shepherd. Our boy Jarvis is ready to charm and charm he does. He has some beautiful markings that will turn heads for a second look. He comes into rescue as an owner surrender due to no fault of his own. He is committed to finding his ideal family to spend the rest of his days with. Jarvis is a 6-year-old Australian Shepherd, and he weighs around 30 pounds. He is on the small size, but he has a large capacity to love. Jarvis can mingle and hang around other dogs, children and adults. He is always willing to make friends. We do not know how he would be with a cat since he has not had the opportunity to meet a cat since coming into rescue. We do know he will do well with a family that is focused on regular exercise, continued training and lots of socialization. He has a medium energy level and will be a good match for a fairly active family. He is housetrained and currently working on his crate and leash training. With time and practice, Jarvis will be a champion in no time at all. It is important to remember that although Jarvis is housetrained, accidents can occur while adjusting to a new home environment. With changes in his life, Jarvis has his heart in the right place. He is ready to be a part of a family that will cherish and love him. He is not looking back because he will focus on moving forward and all the love that is in store for him. * When considering adoption, keep in mind that dogs thrive on structure and routine. They adjust much better when their owners are committed to providing consistency and stability. The adoption fee for Jarvis is $500. That includes the cost of spaying/neutering, up to date vaccinations, foster care, rescue and transportation fees.

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).
