MIKEY
makes his home with a very nice man who has had shelties before. Mikey is thrilled to have his own home away from all this chaos. He can continue his couch potato lifestyle without all the barking!
 
SCOUT
makes his home with a nice couple and their adorable sheltie Chloe. He's going to have a great life and a cute little sister!
 
NOVA
makes his home with a couple and their two adopted shelties and one border collie. Isn't it great that there are people out there willing to give the seniors a nice retirement life? Nova is 14 years old!!!!
 
MAZIE (l) & PEPPERMINT PATTY (r)
were adopted by a wonderful couple  - they previously had two shelties, both which have passed on, the younger one earlier this year.   We had gotten several inquiries about Peppermint Patty, the younger one, but this couple wanted both of them. These terrific little girls now have a big yard, a nice man to play ball with Peppermint Patty and a "mom" to give Mazie all the adoration she wants!

TORI
goes to her new home today with a very nice man who is looking forward to walking her every day and playing with her in his big fenced yard. He manages apartment buildings, so she will get to go with him to mow lawns and hang out and watch him work!
 
HOLLY
was adopted by a nice couple who work at home so Holly will have lots of attention. She also has a German Shepherd that lives with her to romp around with.
 
BARON
makes his home with a great couple who have had shelties in the past. They are letting Baron settle in and then Baron will be getting a sheltie brother or sister soon!
 
DUCHESS
goes to a family that has two guy buddies to hang with. She joins 17-yr old Lucky and little Bandit, both shelties. They now have a 7 year old sheltie girl to add additional spark to their household!

RUDY
makes his home with a nice couple who hasn't had a sheltie for quite a while. Their last one passed away at age 13. Rudy will have a huge fenced yard to play in.
 
CUBBY
makes his home with a nice couple in MN who have a senior sheltie named Teddy at home. Cubby is looking forward to playing with the garden hose and bringing the newspaper...
 
SPARKY
makes his home with a nice lady and her other rescue sheltie. He did some major butt kissing when she came to visit and won out over all the purebred shelties here! Way to go Sparky!
 
KATY
makes her home in her third and FINAL place with a tri colored collie and a tri colored little sheltie. Now they have one of every size :))

 
OREO
Thanks to a great referral from the Chilton Humane Society, Oreo has found a great home with a nice family nearby where she is going to be the only dog.

 
 
 
 
MITCHELL
makes his home with a nice couple on their hobby farm. His new mom works at a vet clinic so Mitchell will have all the care as a senior that he will need. He also has a big lab brother to play with.

 
MINNIE
makes her home with a nice family who recently lost their sheltie. She's happy to be the only dog again and the queen of her domain.

 
BANDIT
makes his home with a nice family. He's grateful to be an inside dog for the rest of his life!

 
RINGO
makes his home with a great couple and their sheltie who have been volunteering at events for WSR for a while now. They met Ringo and the reunion and decided that their house was big enough for two shelties. Ringo's doing great in his new home.

 
LIBBY
makes her home with a nice family and their two dogs. They have already invested in a hammock and Libby will now own her very own little girl :))

 
 
 
 
LIBERTY
makes her home with a nice woman and her two other shelties (one from WSR). She is the sheltie that ended up at a humane society with "LADY" spray painted on her back. Because she was red, white and blue for a while, we renamed her Liberty.
 
TIGGER (L) and ROO (R)
make their home with a VERY nice, patient lady and her cats. She recently moved into a new home and patiently waited for her cats to settle in before getting her new dynamic duo.
 
SHADOW
makes her home with a lady who has been waiting a long time to get a sheltie. She is still on the waiting list for a sibling for Shadow
 
CODI
the St. Bernard mix FINALLY went to her new home with a great couple who recently lost their St. Bernard. They are used to big dogs and Codi is happy to be the queen of her home again. She lost 27 pounds while she was here. Cool!

 
 
 

BASIA
now lives where a former WSR sheltie recently passed away. She has a sheltie brother named Maverick.

 

JACK & BUDDY
get to go to the same home. Jack will hopefully learn some things from Buddy about how to be a real dog. Prior to coming here, he lived a pretty happy, but sheltered life with one lady. He's just starting to play and discover toys.

FAITH
Her name should really be "Fate". I received a call from a breeder who found out that one of the puppies that she bred has a heart defect. If not surgically corrected, Faith would live a very short life. By fate, I also received a lead that a veterinarian known by a WSR adopter was looking to adopt a little sheltie. She had already made plans to come to the reunion to meet everyone. Faith now has a new home who can provide the care (or at least the connections for the care) that she needs. Hopefully, after the surgery, Faith can live a long healthy life.
