[All adoptable pets](https://ncpetproject.org/adopt/) [How this list works](https://ncpetproject.org/adopt/how-it-works/)

Listings from 348 North Carolina shelters and rescues, checked October 17, 2026. Each pet links to its shelter, and the full list is on [shelters and rescues](https://ncpetproject.org/adopt/shelters/). Pets are adopted every day, so a pet shown here may already have found a home.

## What the list shows today

The 116 Australian cattle dogs on the list today are spread across 38 counties; the most are listed in Wake County (16), Iredell County (10) and Mecklenburg County (10). About 57% are listed by rescues and 43% by public and nonprofit shelters, and about 56% live in foster homes rather than at a shelter, so a visit may need an appointment. Of the 82 with an age listed, the typical (median) age is about 3 years.

From the shelter and rescue listings NC Pet Project read on October 17, 2026. Each shelter sets its own labels, ages and foster status.

## About Australian cattle dogs

Australian cattle dogs are medium sized herding dogs known for intelligence, endurance and a strong work drive. They do best with structure, training and consistent activity, and they tend to bond strongly with their families.

Breed labels come from each shelter. They are a staff member's best guess from a pet's looks, not a DNA test, so a pet listed here may be a different mix, and a pet of this breed may be listed under another label.

Before you adopt, read our guides to [adopting versus buying a dog in NC](https://ncpetproject.org/adopt-vs-buy-dog-nc/) and [when to spay or neuter a dog by size](https://ncpetproject.org/spay-neuter-timing/).

We checked each rescue's own page on or before October 17, 2026. Contact a rescue directly about the pets it has and how it adopts. Logos belong to their organizations and are shown to identify them; ask us and we'll remove one.
