JohannTheDogHi, I'm Johann! I'm a pretty busy pup. Got my own website - JohannTheDog.com, and I do agility, herding, and help raise money for dog shelters and rescues. Be sure and visit my Dog Blog and keep up with what's going on!
Really glad you stopped by!

About Me!

My birth Mom and four of my brothers and sisters arrived at the Southside Animal Shelter in Indianapolis, Indiana sometime in August 2004. We were rescued.
Johann as a Pup
The shelter folks named me Ben (on the left) and my brother Jerry, funny huh? My new momThey think I was born on June 25th, 2004, but they don't know where, and that I'm a sheltie. renamed me Johann, after Johann Sebastian Bach.

My mom raised us well, And all of us were adopted to wonderful, but different families. That doesn't make me sad, because as of September 3, 2004 I have a great new home and two new brothers Wolfie and Wiggy, and as of March 2006, a new sister, Gracie.

My favorite things!

  • Agility, Agility, Agility and more Agility!
  • Herding
  • Organic free range chicken
  • Zukes
  • Talking walks with Mom and Gracie
  • Helping shelters and rescues raise money

Dog agility!

Johann doing Agility!This is me at a 2006 agility trial, clearing the triple. As you can see I take my job very seriously. Seriously fun!!!!

Some folks call me Johann, some folks call me JoJo (YoYo), and some folks call me Rocket Dog. I don't care what they call me as long as they call me to do agility!

My family!

This is my family! We are all named after classical composers. Mom used to be a classical flutist - but she doesn't have much time for that anymore. And besides, not so sure we'd put up with the 'noise'.

I paint!JohannTheDog - Dogs & Dog Rescue

One day Mom said - we're gonna paint!

Well I was up for anything, 'cause I'm still kind of a pup.

So Mom mixed up some corn starch, flour, water and food coloring - put some on my paws and let me CREATE!

Here is the result! Whadda ya think?

Larry Merrill drew me!

JohannTheDog - Dogs & Dog RescueLarry Merrill is an artist. January 29 '06 through February 17, '07 was the Year of the Dog on the Chinese Zodiac. To join in that celebration, Larry provided a piece of original art for each day of the year - a Dog Each Day.

On December 24, Christmas Eve, I was Larry's Dog Each Day!

You can see lots more Dogs Each Day!




Causes I care about!

I like to give back - so we found a way to help some great organizations. We teamed up with Kevin Bacon and SixDegrees.org to help raise funds for organizations that help shelters and rescues. Check out my SixDegrees.org page!
