Say “hello” to Birdie, a 15#, 13-week-old border collie girlie, who is ready for her next big adventure. This little girl is up for anything. Go to the vet? Sure, she’ll chase her lotus ball around the vet’s chair until she finds the treats inside. Visit her foster mom’s workplace with elevators, stairs, a bunch of new people, and on a day when it’s pouring rain outside? Sure, no problem: by the end of the day, she was assistant to the college publicist and had a bunch of new friends. Visit big dogs? Sure: let them try to catch her! Birdie is confident, social, curious, independent, and absolutely and hilariously lovable. It goes without saying that she’s a smarty pants, too!
MAPLE is a darling little 20lb border collie mix and just shy of one year old. She was named MAPLE after her coloring but turns out it is even more fitting than that because she is also as sweet as MAPLE syrup. First and foremost, MAPLE aspires to be a lap dog and lucky for her (or you) she is small enough to be just that! She loves nothing more than cuddling up on a blanket next to somebody, but if that is not an option her next place of choice would be somewhere simply comfortable and warm.
