Many of the Aussies we rescue have health issues. Anything from mange, cancer, broken bones, heart worm,hip dysplasia and even basic spay & neuter. Many have emotional issues that require professional trainers before they are adoptable. Please help us help them. We CANNOT save them without your support.
Australian Shepherds Furever Mission Statement
Nancy
Pearlman-Gonzalez, Founder and CEO, created Australian Shepherds Furever (ASF),
a non-profit organization to promote the educated adoption and rescue of the
Australian Shepherd breed of dog.
In July 2012,
Australian Shepherds Furever (ASF) initiated as a page on Facebook. Hoping to
have 1,000 members at the end one year, ASF quickly grew into a network of more
than 30,000 dedicated individuals striving to provide aid and refuge to Aussies
all over the country.
From this
phenomena, the website www.australianshepherdsfurever.org was developed to educate the public on
this intelligent and beautiful breed, and provide resources to those seeking
help or willing to contribute to the Adopt, Save and Foster
(ASF) philosophy. ASF filed for and obtained non profit status and through
networking, ASF has saved the lives of countless dogs and helped to provide
funds to those that have nowhere else to turn.
Volunteers are an
integral component of ASF for the
maintenance of the website, screening potential fosters and adopters, and
transporting of recued Aussies . All Volunteers; Adopters, Fosters,
Transporters etc are carefully screened and vetted to attempt the safe and
vital placement of rescues.
We, as humans, have
a responsibility to uphold to shelter and care for those beings that are less
fortunate. Thanks to proactive individuals who work collectively, Aussies
nationwide are being given a chance at a better life through Australian
Shepherds Furever (ASF).
