Meet Angel, a 22 lb mini red merle Australian Shepherd. Angel is approximately 13 years old. She was an owner surrender and but for her reported age, we would have guessed her to be at least a few years younger. Her eyes are clear and a beautiful shade of blue. She hears just fine, although sometimes it is a bit selective in nature. When she arrived, she was in need of a pretty extensive dental, which VIP Rescue has taken care of. She also had a benign growth on her face/cheek which was removed and her stitches will come out soon.
Angel is playful and energetic. She is housebroken and walks well on leash. Her prior home had a doggie door so she knows how those work too. She enjoys leisurely walks and literally prances around just being outdoors. After her exercise, she likes to curl up nearby and nap. She is affectionate and friendly, but can be shy, especially if rushed or feels overwhelmed.
Angel is very soft mannered and gentle. She seeks someone of similar temperament. An easy to care for dog, looking for a forever home to live out her golden years and bless someone with her lifetime companionship. She would do fine in a home as a solo dog, but she also gets along well with others, including kids so long as they are chill and respectful. We suspect she would do fine with dog socialized cats as well.
Angel is spayed and has had a fresh dental. She is up to date on her vaccines, microchipped and on heartworm and flea prevention. Interested in welcoming this beautiful senior into your home? If so, please apply today at
