I failed again...New rescue*PICS ADDED*

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 a blue merle!! Can't wait to see pics!! :D:D:D

I can't hold my breath too long...find that camera cord!!!!!

You did not fail!..you saved him! Major hugs to you..can't wait for pics :)

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;)

what a cutie! :)

He's gorgeous!!

Wow!!!! What a Gorgeous Lucky Boy!!!:D

What a gorgeous boy. He is so lucky to have an angel like you in his life. Thanks for helping him get a second chance!

Hes gorgeous, I see her has perfected the puppy dog eye look too :D

WOw, What a pretty dog! *Drools* I want! lol

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.

Well, I hope that takes a Very Long Time! He's beautiful!

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...

:eek: What a handsome, exquisite boy! *Nudge Nudge dad* (take your good old time- good man!)

Adorable - I hope you fail dismally in finding him a furever home anywhere but with you!

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.

He is GORGEOUS! What a sweet and gentle face he has! Thank you for rescuing him, whether he stays or not!!! :)

Not keeping him....look at that face!! How can you say that?! Great save Lex! You done good!! :)

Gosh he's gorgeous! Hope he finds the perfect home! :D

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

Again... ;) :p
And how many more agains will there be? :p ;)
Your new pup is gorgeous. I'm glad you failed!

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.
