Adopt a Australian Shepherd in Massachusetts

Australian Shepherds are smart, work-oriented, and exuberant herding dogs. They end up in rescue when families can't provide enough physical and mental exercise. An adopted Aussie will thrive with an active owner who gives them a job to do.

Massachusetts has a highly active rescue dog community, with most local shelters running primarily on transport from Southern states. Boston, Worcester, and Springfield are major hubs. A rescued Massachusetts dog has usually traveled north through one of these well-established transport networks.
