Meet Rafferty - a 4 1/2 month old, Australian Shepherd mix, who weighs 15 pounds (as of 3/6/25). Rafferty and his siblings were surrendered to us by his previous family after being evicted from their home. He knows what is means to be part of a loving family, and now he is looking for a new family to call his own!

Great things come in small sizes! Rafferty, a spunky, happy little guy who loves to be part of the action. Whether you’re snuggling on the couch or going for walk, he’s guaranteed to be next to you wagging his tail. His foster shares: He’s very smart and easy going. He is crate trained, good on the leash and working on being housebroken. He's a great co-pilot in the car. As with most puppies, he will need a family committed to training. He loves being around other dogs and has a wonderful playful personality. He is also an amazing cuddler and will happily curl up next to you.

He’s going to be a wonderful companion or addition to a loving family. You couldn't find a friendlier little guy!"

All dogs are up to date on vaccinations and spayed/neutered at the time of adoption. All dogs require professional training to become the best family member they can be.

PLEASE READ: If a dog is listed, then s/he is currently available for adoption. Their information is correct to the best of our abilities and the information we have been given as of the day of posting. From time to time we receive new information/photos of a dog and we do recreate their listing, which means their old listing link will no longer be valid. If you are considering a dog but don't apply right away please make sure to search for the dog by name if the link you have no longer works.

Please note, GDRNE does not guarantee the breed of any dog or puppy unless stated that we have run DNA. All breeds listed are educated estimates. Note that if the dog is listed as an "Out of town pet" there are NOT additional transport fees - it is included in our adoption fee Our dogs are rescued from various situations. It is most likely that both their parents were strays and even if not, mixes of some sort and that their grandparents were mixes as well. The dog may have some genetic material of an American Staffordshire Terrier (pit bull). The dogs are usually mixes of many breeds, making them a breed all their own - a True and adorable American MUTT. If you are interested in this dog, you must submit an application. Great Dog is not a shelter so there is no building you can visit. Our dogs live in private foster homes until adopted.
