Meet Jamison, JJ for short. He is truly one of a kind. He loves with his whole heart. He is full of life and quite the explorer. He does not shy away from noisy situations but is very curious as to what might be happening. JJ is the inquisitive dog of the day. He loves to play with his sister most of the day, but also loves his naptime. He has been taught to sit and stay on command for a treat. Working on leash training that is progressing slowly but surely. JJ, like his sister, loves the water [...]

Why, you ask, is this lovely girl still on our website and not already adopted? We have asked ourselves that very question and the only reason we can come up with is that she is predominantly black and black dogs, like black cats, are quite often overlooked. Montana is just the sweetest young girl you could ever meet. She loves with her whole heart and she plays that way too! She is a 9 month old ACD/BC mix who is black with blue paws and a blue chest. Montana is living in a foster home with thr [...]

Hello - Please let me introduce myself.  Benny Joe here to tell you all about my wonderful life.  I am so lucky to have landed in the loving arms of Arizona Cattle Dog Rescue just a mere two months ago.  I am 10 months old, a svelte 45 pounds, and oh so handsome (if I do say so myself).  I have to tell you, I had so much to learn & still more to learn - I am a very smart boy & a quick study.  I love to play & romp with dogs of all ages any size.  I am very strong so kids of a young a [...]

Are you looking for a bit older girl?  One that is active and yet calm, cool & collected?  Our girl Zooey may be the perfect buddy for you.  Zooey is 8 1/2 years old, weighs in at 47#, long tail, bright smile & perky ears.  She is a quiet companion, would not be considered a ‘barker’ although will alert you, loves to follow wherever you go & is great on vehicle rides.

Say hello to Riley. Isn’t she pretty? Look at her ring tail. It is awesome to behold. Riley is a 5 ½ year old ACD. She has been nothing but sweet in her foster home with all the male dogs and with her foster peeps. She can be a bit snarky with other female dogs but can be easily redirected to more appropriate behavior. We would recommend that she goes to a home with experienced ACD owners who understand the breed characteristics. She would not be a candidate for a first time ACD owner. She is cu [...]

Say hello to Munchkin. He is what we would call a pocket ACD. He is a 4 ½ month old bundle of energy and happiness and at 9lbs, he is one small Red ACD for sure!  He spends his days running with the big dogs in the back yard. His foster brothers and sisters outweigh him by at least 30 lbs, but he thinks nothing of “heeling” them if he thinks one of them is getting too rambunctious during play time. He loves to play with his human, canine and feline friends at the foster home though the cat is wo [...]

Oliver, Oliver, Oliver. You ‘big beautiful doll!' Are you considering a 70# lap dog? Well, look no further than sweet, sensitive, obedient Oliver. He may very well be your boy! Oliver is a 5 yo Aussie with the most unique personality. He wants to only please you. Oliver loves to romp & do zoomies in the yard, and then flop for quiet time. He loves to snuggle on the couch sidling up to you in hopes of a pet and to even bow his head to rest on your chest. He is like a big puffy marshmallow - a [...]
