HAPPY TAILS: Lava Has A New Home!


Rocky (ADOPTED) is almost 11 months old; a beautiful border collie and shepherd mix who is about 45 pounds. He is very friendly with people and is extremely friendly and playful with other dogs. He is NOT a dominant dog and will go with the flow, quickly realized when exposed to 8 other dogs at one of our foster sites. Rocky did well with everyone and just wanted to play. He does have a lot of energy and loves to play ball.
Rocky will need some basic obedience training. He never wants to let the party end and may protest a bit when left alone. His former owner says he's completely house trained and crate trained as well. He also does well with cats and children.
Rocky will bond closely with his people; a sweet and gentle soul who will make the most devoted companion. And look at his beautiful smile!
Peaches (ADOPTED) is an absolute doll. She would be THE best companion for someone who is looking for a loving, devoted, only dog. We believe Peaches is around 3 or 4 years old, and weighs about 45 lbs.
We believe Peaches would be a great family dog. She is very attentive and responsive to people, and extremely trainable. As with nearly all cattle dogs, Peaches is looking to bond closely with a person or people of her own, and become a velcro dog. Peaches has been recently spayed and is current on all her vaccinations.
Peaches has one issue. She is afraid of other dogs, when she sees them or knows that one is approaching. We do think that Peaches could learn to live with another (female) dog, but it would take patience and a very slow introduction. Whoever adopts Peaches must be willing to work with her over time to help her overcome her fear of other dogs, or must have a situation where she won't be around other dogs.
With a little time and effort, Peaches would be the perfect loving companion and partner in life.
Emmy (ADOPTED) is now in family with two other friendly dogs, a mom, dad, and two girls in their upper teens who adore her! Emmy's new home has sheep and chickens, as well, but only for watching behind the fence. Emmy is very content to spend her days following Mom or the girls around.
She is a shy, quiet little girl weighing in at about 35 lbs. Emmy has the loyalty and devotion of her breed, without the bossy or busy traits. She is a quiet and gentle companion. Her favorite thing to do is to hang out with her person, and be your shadow. She is very friendly, playful, and super sweet. Emmy does not have a mean bone in her body. She is great with other dogs, cats, horses, and she loves little children.
Emmy loves attention and will easily roll on her back for some belly rubs. Obedient, happy, devoted...all in all a wonderful constant companion! As a quiet, sensitive soul, she is best in a fairly calm household.
