Augie

Meet August, or Augie for short! This sweet boy was found after being shot with a BB gun, but that didn’t stop him from being loving and happy. He’s great with other dogs, kids, and even cats.

He was originally named Billy at the shelter, but he was renamed Augie because of a unique marking on his back that looks like the number eight! He was relisted to be euthanized the same day he was rescued and fostered.

Now, he’s getting a second chance at life! Augie is a 3-month-old Red Heeler mix, and when fully grown, he should weigh around 50 pounds. He’s a true gentleman and will make a beautiful addition to any family.

He’s a very smart puppy—he already knows how to sit, give his paws, and follow commands. He’s also potty trained and prefers to go in the same spot each time.

His memory is excellent! He’s super playful, loves his toys, and even enjoys playing with ice cubes.

While he’s great with little kids, he would especially thrive in a family with teenage kids because of his active and playful nature. He works well with other dogs and cats, making him the perfect companion for a multi-pet household.

He’s still just a puppy and can be a little nervous when going through doors, but with some socialization and patience, he’s sure to grow out of it. Augie is such a sweet boy and deserves a second chance with a loving forever home.

If you’re looking for a loyal and loving pup to add to your family, Augie might just be the perfect fit!
