Introducing affectionate and gorgeous ETHEL, an approximately two-year-old red-tri smooth coat female.  She is 18+ inches at the shoulders and weighs about 37 pounds. ETHEL has perfect recall either by whistle or calling her name. She is healthy and has been well-cared for. She does not wander off and prefers to stick close to her people and foster sisters. She rarely barks, and only does if she needs to catch your attention (“Please let me in!”). ETHEL is a playful and funny dog that lives for a good time.

ACE is a loving, playful male tri-color smooth coat who weighs in at a whopping 30 lbs. He uses his slight frame to full advantage, quickly learning to slip through the posts of our gate leading to the back deck. ACE also holds his own playing with our foster Lawrence* (the red prominent in the pictures and video), who is double ACE’s weight. They spend a good part of their day wrestling and chasing each other around. ACE also gets along well with our girl Sissy and largely ignores the cat. *Note – Lawrence will be posted later this week.

Rascal is such a wonderful dog and the sweetest boy ever.  This fun, 43 pound, 2-yr-old boy is housebroken and understands basic commands like “sit,” “down,” and “come.” He is crate-trained and quite the lover boy first thing in the morning when getting out of his crate.  In his foster home, he hasn’t ever eaten anything he’s not supposed to, and he is well-mannered.  When he came into rescue, he was unfamiliar with a leash and car rides, so Rascal’s foster mom is slowing getting him out socially.  New to walking on a leash, he has been learning to enjoy long walks and a good run.  The only time Rascal barks is when he wants to play.  Rascal is polite when company arrives, not even barking then.

Say hello to WILLOW, an 8m old BC mix female. Her foster mom thinks she might be mixed with Kelpie. She has a lovely soft easy care smooth coat, the cutest little socks on her feet and a tiny white tip on her tail. WILLOW is a medium to high energy girl who loves to play but will settle down when playtime is over. She loves other dogs and gets along with cats too. She will try to play (gently) with the cats, so any cats in the home would have to be dog savvy.

GRACEY is an active gal who likes to play ball and run around the yard. That is a good thing as she needs to stay active to keep her weight down and enjoy the food and treats she very much enjoys. Even in her younger days she was overweight. Since coming back to rescue she has lost 18 lbs and looks really good at 46 lbs. Her medium tri-colored coat is easy to maintain.

Introducing the most lovable adorable companion to be found. BARON is a male Border collie Catahoula mix just shy of 3 years of age, approximately 56 pounds.  BARON is a very sweet boy.  He loves to join you in whatever you’re doing and shadow your next move.  He loves to give kisses and curl up in your lap for a nap.

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. 

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.

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.
