Ok, these guys aren't on petfinder, because the breed isn't on petfinder. But I still want to post them!Caucasians are quickly becoming my favorite breed!
Ovcharka Dog Rescue
JAKE & KATY
Katie
Jake
These two sweethearts were adopted by a family that totally loves them, but has just experienced some major health issues and therefore they need to be rehomed. We would like to try to keep Jake & Katy together: they are a pair of super sweet and well behaved house dogs who are used to having and sharing their very own couch, are great with children and small dogs.
Kozlak
Kozlak came into rescue because he'd been aggressive toward his owner's children. He's an 8 year old Caucasian and has been very good since he's been here. He still needs to lose some weight, but since he's been taking medicine for his thyroid problems, anemia and chronic, longstanding inflammatory problems, he's been doing really well! He's having so much fun and is actually running through the pasture now. And he is, in fact, feeling ever so much better! He likes to go on long rambling walks by himself and has a marvelous time watching the young bunnies and quail out in the pasture. And like all the dogs, roars at any low flying hawk, falcon or magpie that cruises by. One of his great joys is getting near the sheep at feeding time: he puts his head down and pretends to be grazing along with them.
Koslak has been working out well with adult sheep and lambs, and will not tolerate any incursions into his territory.
Nino and Nikki
Nino
[Nikki
This mother and daughter Caucasian team were possibly going to work out with livestock: well scratch that concept! They think sheep are for chasing and nibbling on. Nino is a very special needs dog in that she is blind. She came here as allegedly a five year old: I suspect she's closer to ten. Niki arrived with no name even though she was supposedly two years old (Actually probably more like three or four)! She's also not had much human contact, since she's very shy around people, but is willing to warm up......but the look in her eyes is "...and why should I trust you?" Niki is Nino's seeing eye dog: these two must be together: if anything, Niki gets even more frantic than Nino when they're separated. They are both dog aggressive but are good with people, in spite of an obvious lack of socialization.
Nino required eye surgery, as the left eye was irritating her quite a bit: given that it was very shrunken in size, the Vet thought this would be better for her anyway. And even after being here almost a year now, Niki still will not stand quietly for brushing, although she'll cheerfully try to steal treats out of my pockets. We have finally been able to groom Niki: and about four tons of matted coat later, we/ve found not much dog under all that! She's very tall and slender and we're hoping she'll start to look more like the breed once all that coat grows back in.
Cheyanne
Cheyenne is a 3 1/2 year old Caucasian/Central Asian mix that has been with one owner since she was a puppy. She weighs approximately 80-85 pounds
She likes to go for long walks and likes having her belly scratched. She can be dominant with other dogs and ideally needs a home with no other dogs. Although she was raised with three other dogs, she seems to be taking some exception to them at this point. :-)
She needs an owner who can be firm and train her properly and who will enjoy the outdoors as much as she does.
