We started right way with Obedience training and he was a star so we continued to AKC Good Citizen Certification and then AKC Novice Tricks. Practicing was his favorite part of the day! He began training for therapy dog, going into Rehabilitation facilities and Hospice and then Covid-19 came. We were not able to complete the training but Ellie eagerly continued the training at home.
Due to the overwhelming response we will not be reviewing any more applications for Jesse for now. Thank you for your understanding.
Meet CODY! At 12-14 weeks, this happy little bundle has been such a pleasure to have in our home. We were a little worried that the older dogs would pick on him, but this little boy rules the roost. He isn’t afraid of the older bigger dogs and wants very much to engage in play with everyone he meets. His foster brothers are very tolerant of him stealing lap time and toys, but when he crosses a line and gets reprimanded by them, he sulks off quietly to go lie down and give them some space.
Due to the overwhelming response we will not be reviewing any more applications for the puppies for now. Thank you for your understanding.
Our boy TUCKER (aka Tuck) is a gorgeous 6 year old, 45 lb red and white Border Collie mix with a thick rough double coat. TUCK loves to be petted and loved. He will sit patiently while you pet the top of his head or stroke him under the chin. He will lick you while being petted and loves giving kisses.
Nyla is approximately 5-months-old and weighs about 28 pounds. Even with her petite build, she is a very athletic ball of energy. And talk about athletic: this girl can easily clear a 24” fence with room to spare! She is a gorgeous jumper. Nyla is learning good name recognition and is making progress toward a reliable recall. She gets along well with all of the dogs in her foster home and the dogs she has visited at the home of a family friend. That said, the older dogs are not so tolerant of her puppy exuberance. She is always up for playing!!! Nyla is almost housebroken, and she is crate-trained.
Meet our colorful boy ELVIS. To call him “Tri” is understating things as he is made up of a myriad of colors. He is active love and fun. ELVIS sits on command (and often before asked) when he wants loving and treats. Training should be fun and rewarding as he is both praise and treat motivated.
A big hello to a little chap, AUGIE DOGGIE! Yes this little guy, weighing in at a mere 22 lbs is frisky and fun, a good houseguest and great companion. He does have Border collie markings and looks like a miniature border collie but most likely his lineage is a mix of smaller breeds. AUGIE is cute and a cuddler, crates easily and sleeps quietly in his crate throughout the night.
Mama K.C. is about 6-years-old and about 40#. She is a smart and active girl who raised 10 puppies and is now ready for her forever home. She is both able to be independent and very affectionate. K.C is a super nice dog to live with and has been an utterly relaxed mother to her pups, not overly protective or fussy when people or the other dogs have come near. She has a nice level of confidence; she likes to stay busy and to learn, especially when there are treats involved. She is super smart.
The Roaring Twenties littermates are a delightful, playful, social gang of 10: 6 girls & 4 boys. The pups are a little smaller than some litters of 7 weeks we’ve had, but it appears they may be a little smaller than their mother, who weighs around 40 lbs. Their mother, K.C., is a smooth-coated, classically-marked border collie with gorgeous prick or stand-up ears.
The Roaring Twenties pups will be ready to go to their new homes on March 8th.
TRIPP is a young rough coat fawn and white male Border collie mix. He is approximately 1 year of age and weighs in at a slim and trim 37 lbs. TRIPP loves to play. He especially enjoyed his time with our 3 month old puppy guest Bear. They would play and wrestle for as long as we allowed it.
Say hello to BEAR! This adorable little guy, approximately 3 1/2 months old and about 20 lbs, is a bundle of energy and fun! His demeanor is mostly laid back and easy going but he does get excited when playing.
A big welcome to our COOPER!! This darling smooth coated red and white boy is 18 months old and 39 lbs of fun. He is as sweet as he can be and just a bit shy but made himself at home in his foster home quickly. He is a very good guest and apparently house broken as he’s never had an accident while in rescue.
TRUDY is 4 years and 32 lbs of sweetness. She is easy going and lovely like her sister Mattie (also available with a very similar personality). She can often be found under mom’s chair feeling safe and loved.
MATTIE is a smallish (appx 28 lbs), easygoing gal, sweet and lovely, and ready to start life in her forever home. This 3-year-old rough coat can often be found close to her foster mom’s chair, enjoying a quiet spot in her rural foster home.
Say hello to our sweet, handsome boy GRIFFEN! He is a 2yr old, 48lb male with a beautiful rough coat. GRIFFEN loves to be with his people most of all. He will follow you around the house and wait patiently until it’s his turn for some attention. He also loves the ball and will happily chase it and sometimes bring it back when he is done playing with it. He has not shown interest in toys, but he loves his ball.
A big hello to KIMBER! This darling tri-colored female Border collie mix (no idea what she is mixed with!) is 3 years old and a lovely low key girl. With her easy care smooth coat this girl is ready for a new adventure. Seriously, she can be a bit of a couch potato indoors but is a great companion and sweetheart in temperament. KIMBER has pretty low drive.
Toby is a 10-month-old border collie/Australian shepherd mix, who is as gorgeous on the inside as he is on the outside. Toby a a fun-loving boy, who enjoys the company of people & dogs alike. Toby is a special needs boy who will need a special home.
SWEET ANN is white with brindle spots with a soft medium coat. She was born 09/18/19. This sweet girl has a wonderful easy going personality. She marches to a different drum and does her own thing.
