ADOPTED Dolly

Female, 1 year 4 months, 40 lbs

DOLLY MAY 2021

My name is DOLLY. I’m a single, “sweet as can be” female and 16-months-old. A lady never tells her weight, but I’m 40-something pounds. Let’s keep that between us. My friends say, “I’m a wild and crazy gal” because I’m always excited to play and often the life of the party. I also love playing in water. I was able to check out a shallow pond recently and had a blast playing and splashing around. Not sure I want to swim, but maybe…but the water wasn’t deep enough to try.

Some dogs think I play too rough, but I’m a herding dog and it’s my instinct to round up the troops. My favorite game to play with my canine friends is chase. I love to run! I’m housebroken, crate- trained and not picky about toys. I’ll play with any toy you’ll give me, but I hope you’ll want to play with me. Maybe some catch? I might not always bring the ball back, so you’ll be running and catching, too. I never met a cat before, but I know I’d love to chase one of them, so a home without a cat is probably a good idea for me. I’m young and like most ladies, I’m always watching my figure. I’m happy, healthy, and still learning what I like with each new experience.

My foster mom says I’m very special because I have one blue eye and one brown eye. She hopes someone will love me as much as she does, but I don’t know if that’s possible. She’s always kissing me, and I kiss her back about a million times a day. She’s taught me to sit, stay, lay down, come, and of course her favorite, how to kiss. I’d love to learn more tricks and will do almost anything for a treat. I enjoy long walks, but my foster mom walks slowly and I just want to be free and run with the wind in my fur. I pull her sometimes, but she’s teaching me to enjoy each step and slow down a little bit. While I’m still learning, I like walking in more quiet areas, where I don’t have too much stimulation with other dogs.  When I’m on leash, my foster mom says I need to focus on her.  I am really good at letting her know when someone comes onto the property or to the door, so she can feel safe.

Ideally, I’m looking for a partner who will love me to infinity and beyond. I’m looking for a home with property, perhaps a more rural setting, so I have lots of room to run and play and have less distraction.  I would maybe like a friend to run and play with, but they would need to keep up with me and like to play and wrestle. I’m young, smart, and willing to learn—and I learn quickly.

DOLLY is micro-chipped, spayed, heart worm negative and on preventative, and up to date on vaccinations. If you have an approved Northern California Border Collie Rescue & Adoptions Adoption Application and wish to inquire about DOLLY , please email us at Adoptions@norcalbcrescue.org. If you have an approved adoption application with Border Collie Rescue of Northern California let us know and we will request it be forwarded to us for consideration. 

DOLLY is being fostered in Sacramento in Sacramento County, CA
