Meet our "Diamonds in the Rough"!
These amazing little guys were dropped off at the San Diego shelter in mid April. They were flea, tick, and skin mite infested. They had sarcoptic mange, a contagious disease to both dogs and people, and, because they were just under 2 months of age and the time it would take to heal and recover from their condition, they were in danger unless a rescue took them on. ARWOB took them and had them boarded for 5 weeks while they were quarantined and treated. You can see before and after pictures.
Our little guys were these diamonds just hiding under all their rough exterior at such a young age and having to battle so many parasites. There are 4 girls and 1 boy. Princess, Oval, Emerald, Marquise and Asscher are all adorable shepherd/aussie and some sort of little terrier mix. As of 5/28, they are between 6- 10 pounds and almost 3 months old, so we expect them to be in the 30-40 pound range.
Here is a bio his current foster parents wrote for him:
Hello! My name is Asscher. I'm a four month old mutt, Australian Shepard mix. I love people and playing with other dogs. My hazel eyes and brindle coat has gotten me a lot of attention, much to the dislike of my foster-brother, Sparky. My foster parents have taught me a lot about house training, cuddling, and getting along with other dogs. I love treats and respond well to positive reinforcement. I'm very interested in EVERYTHING going on but am very eager to please and listen well. I have some issues with other dogs while on leash (I like to bark for attention), but when the leash is off I am very friendly. With some love and discipline, I will make a fantastic companion dog. I'm looking for a forever home with someone who will give me lots of love. Please come meet me!
