Well, my brother and I went to the shelter this morning. To look at the puppies. He misses Polly and wanted to go look....only look! yeah right!

We both just fell in love with a young male blue merle Australian Shepherd. He's absolutely gorgeous and so well mannered. The animal control officer said he was picked up as a stray next to a community center and nobody has claimed him or acted interested in him at all. With some sweet talk. My brother convinced me into rescueing him. We're not keeping him. Only giving him a place to call home until a forever home can be found. I added the pics!!!

This is Zoom.

Isn't he just drop dead gorgeous?!?! He's already learned how to sit. He's so smart!

I've said this myself 5 times. I failed 3 times. The other two "fosters" are here right now, so there is still time! :rolleyes:

No matter, this dog will be much better off and happier in a foster home than in a shelter cage. Good job! :)

Oh he is gorgeous!!! His body markings look a lot like Zoee's, but he has more of a stub of a tail. :) He's got the cutest face. :D
I secretly hope you can't find him a home. :P;)

Oh yes! He definetly has that look down. He's already getting spoiled rotten because of that face.

Zoom might be housebroken. I don't know yet. He acts like he wants to lift his leg sometimes, but changes his mind. Seems very comfortable in the house too.

Hehehehehehe! It's never "just looking"!!! :p ;) Don't worry, I've failed plllenty of times... :rolleyes: Don't ask me how I ended up with 12 dogs...but then again, I figured out that I was never just looking, because I always ended up coming home with one...

I would love to fail at the forever home part as well, but if we keep him then there won't be any room for any more rescues. It's gonna stink when he leaves, but who knows how long we have him here for.

I took him to work today and he was such a gentleman. The other vet techs fell in love with him. He got plenty of lovins today. Zoom also got his rabies vaccine and a HW test...negative thank God! I started him on Interceptor today.

Zoom is sooo good in the house! I'm thinking he's mostly housebroken. I only have to remind him to think twice about lifting his leg.

Thanks you guys. Zoom and I went to the post office the other day. He got lots of attention from kids there and the mail lady even gave him a cookie. :D

What a cutie! Love the color, he does look a bit shiny in the second pic, but that might be just the picture he looks pretty good in the last one. Good job for giving him a second chance. You probably wont be able to let him go LOL, i sure would not.
