MEET FOXIE:
MEET CHLOE:
Chloe is a 9 to 14 month old ACD blue girl with a full tail. She is such a charmer that everyone loves her. Chloe appears to have had a litter recently and is drying up. She is UTD on her shots and will spayed shortly.
Chloe weighs about 40 pounds. She is affectionate,
sweet-natured and very playful. She is currently
fostered in a home with young children and is very
good with them. She loves to play with other dogs and
is okay with cats. We do not know if she is housebroken
but she does appear to have basic manners. We are looking
for a good home, full of companion pets, with loving
owners who will be the lucky recipients of Chloe's
happy and captivating personality.

MEET MICKEY & PINKY:
Mickey & Pinky are litter sisters who have been raised at the rescue training facility in northern California. They came to us when our coordinator went to pick up 3 ACD puppies and was confronted with two additional ACDx puppies whose Mom was so ill the shelter had euthanized her. They were just 4 1/2 weeks old and had been born with a very bad case of demodetic mange and a staff infection on top of it.
However, the shelter worker's felt they would get better with proper care. They pleaded with us to take them because they had been scheduled to be euthanized that afternoon due to their condition and lack of money to treat the problems. They were just tiny babies and to make a long story short, we just couldn't say no.
The sisters lived on our living room couch for the first 4 weeks. They had to be bathed daily, medicated and hydrated several times a day to help them get over the staff infection which was life threatening. The mange was something we would address if they got better. We dressed them in infant rompers to keep the medication on their rash and keep them from licking it too much. They think it's normal to "dress up".
It took us several months to knock out the infection. In the meantime, they lost most of their hair and looked like little black pigs. We couldn't tell them apart so we put a pink puppy collar on one...thus Pinky got her name. As soon as we had the infection under control we began to treat the mange. They have some facial scars due to the infection and a couple of places where all the hair didn't grow back completely but they are now healthy 1.75 year olds with no mange or other problems. They have been spayed are up to date on shots and very very socialized.
They are great with all dogs, adore kids of any age and love to ride in the car. They are crate trained, come when called, sit on command, are fairly reliable off lead and are learning other obedience skills. While it would be a dream home for them to go together, they can be separated.
For more information on Mickey & Pinky contact Ann McQuillen at 530.620.3000 or on-line at Ann@Cattledog.com or Vida Vreca-Aastrom at 530.273.9663 or Vidster@Cattledog.com

approx. 3-5 years old. He is housebroken, knows sit,
lie down, shake, likes to play Frisbee, and fetch. He loves
the water. Toby is a good traveler in the car. He is quiet &
low to moderate energy. He seems fearful of cats so gives
them a wide berth & is dog social with
non-alpha/confrontational dogs. He is standoffish with
strangers until he gets to know them, as is typical with
this breed, but once he gets to now you, he is quite
affectionate.

MEET DUGAN:
Dugan is a bright, happy-go-lucky, friendly and affectionate five-month-old
(DOB 4/27/01), a handsome light blue with docked tail. He is still very much
a puppy and is very active and full of energy! He gets along well with
other dogs, kids, cats, and caged birds and loves playing ball. Everyone
he meets, whether human, canine or feline, is his friend and a potential
playmate. He is hearing impaired but is a smart boy and would make someone
a wonderful companion.

MEET LACEY:
Meet Lacey, a tail challenged 4 yr old blue female. Lacey is a very
sweet, affectionate girl that is good with women, but is shy around
men. Her owner abandoned her, along with a blue boy we also currently
have in rescue named Colt. Colt & Lacey are somehow related -- possibly
littermates or perhaps mother & son. Lacey is starting to learn
"wait/stay" & appears to know "sit". She will need someone who is
willing to work with her on socialization. Lacey really wants someone
to be her buddy & to bond with, as she does bond quickly. Lacey is good
with other dogs & cats & would do best in a child-free home.
If you are interested in Lacey, please contact either Vida Vreca-Aastrom (vidster@cattledog.com), 530/273-9663, or Ann McQuillen (ann@cattledog.com), 530/620-3000.
