About Rusty

His name is Rusty. He's (as of 9/5/2026) fully vaccinated. I have the paperwork from Roswell VCA, but he is not neutered. Rusty is a 2-5-year-old full-blooded Australian Shepard and has come from 2 different homes before coming into my care. At his most recent home, he was stuck outside in a 20x20 fenced-in area for I'm not sure how long. Rusty is also missing toes on his back paws, one on each foot. When I asked the vet what could have caused this, they said it could be from birth, or something must have happened to him. This does not affect his ability to play or do normal dog things. Rusty has both good and bad moments; his biggest struggle is anxiety and reactivity. He always wants to be near me and if he can't get near me, he whines until he finally calms down. His reactivity is another issue. He has just gotten over his fear of cars driving near him and walks best with a prong collar. Rusty has no known temperamental issues and is great around my girlfriend's dog, but I am unsure of how he will behave around others. He is very calm around men; women (who are not my girlfriend) tend to stress him out, and I am unsure why. I have not brought him around children due to his anxiety, and I do not know how he may react if put in a spot like that. It pains me to write this email, but after visiting your website, I feel this might be the best place and opportunity to find a new home that can provide for him. If you have any questions, please email me or call me!
