ADOPTED – Meet FRASER, an 8-week-old girlie with a beautiful tri-colored smooth coat.   And we’re all taking bets on what her ears are going to do (just today we see ears heading in an upward direction). Fraser is spunk & sweet rolled into one.  At about 10 pounds, she can run with the big dogs & loves to.  She isn’t afraid of anything.  She chases after the big dogs in her foster home until she is tired enough to do somersaults across the yard.  She doesn’t want to miss out on anything.  And when she becomes a pest & they tell her to back off, she listens. One of her favorite things to do is to gather all the toys, even toys that are bigger than her, & take them into her “lair,” creating a big pile.  It’s hilarious.  She doesn’t guard her toys; she simply collects them. Like all puppies her age, when she gets too tired, she has trouble winding down, so that is the time she needs to return to her pen or crate & take a puppa-nap.  She is crate-trained, & is making great progress in potty-training. 

Meet our sweet FRANNY girl. She is a 32lb, 10m old BC mix with a soft, medium coat and cute fluffy ears. FRANNY’s favorite thing is her person. She will follow her foster mom around the house, then settle at her feet. She is a typical young girl who is still puppy-ish and will sometimes chew things that she should not given the chance. A little puppy proofing or limiting where she can go in the house is all she needs.

ADOPTED – LEMON is a darling 6-7 month old Border Collie mix weighing in at roughly 40lbs and gaining! She has a long-haired, rough gold coat with minimal white and perfect collie ears.

LEMON knows her name and has a decent recall, especially when a treat follows. She is very food-motivated and also responds well to “no.” She is a bit of a chewer, so must be watched closely or crated while alone. LEMON does not prefer, nor particularly enjoy her crate, but goes into her crate well with a small nudge and subsequently sleeps without complaints. She is potty trained, but she does not signal when she needs to go out, so needs frequent offerings.

ADOPTED – PENELOPE is a border collie cross weighing in at 30 pounds.  She is under one-year-old and has been spayed.  Penelope is a beautiful, well-balanced little girl with deep brown inquisitive eyes.  Although she appears black and white in pictures, Penelope’s true color is dark chocolate brown with white accents and mahogany brown freckles on her nose.

PENELOPE is fun, energetic, and very curious.  She loves to explore the yard on her own, and mostly stays close by her humans when outside. Penelope is both agile and athletic.  She will run and turn on a dime, then stop and look at you.  If she hears no command, Penelope will continue to run and play on her own.  On hot days, you will find Penelope lounging in the kiddy pool.

ADOPTED – Hi. My name is Ty.

I am about 6-years-old, and I am a Border collie mix, weighing about 50 pounds. My coat is gorgeous, shiny, and medium-length. The first thing I hear people say when they meet is “What a lovely dog!” And they are right. Not only am I gorgeous, but very well- mannered and loving. I am a BUDDY dog, just bursting with cuteness, personality, and devotion. I go everywhere, and wherever I go, I am very well-behaved. No jumping, or barking, no yapping at dogs across the street, or lunging at the end of the leash, and no barking at the mailman or garbage people. I am well-balanced, calm, and centered, especially for a herding dog.  I even behave well at the coffeehouse or tea shop.

ADOPTED – SARGENT (AKA Sarge) is a 36+ pound, 6-month-old neutered border collie mix, who is as beautiful on the inside as he is on the outside.  Like his sister Tootsie, he is active & playful, yet is surprisingly easy-going for an adolescent pup.  He is endearingly clumsy & goofy sometimes, but don’t let this fool you!  Sarge is smart as a whip & learns whatever is asked of him quickly.  For example, he learned to use the doggy door in his foster home in a fingersnap!

ADOPTED – FREDDY is classically marked smooth coat black and white Border collie. He is 5 months of age, 28 lbs and full of spunk. FREDDY is a very active Border collie mouthy youngster who is still learning. And learn he will. He is very smart, knows sit, is doing ok with “crate’ (but he’d much rather be out and about), and has learned to be quiet and still before being fed. In fact that is about the only time he’s still. He does bark some, but mostly when egged on by the other dogs. He is very treat and praise motivated so training should be a blast. An adopter experienced with the personalities of Border collies / herding dogs would be a huge benefit.

ADOPTED – BUCKLEY (BUCK BUCK) is an 11 week male bundle of joy. This 14 pound, tri-colored Border collie mix loves life. He has fun no matter what he’s doing. He enjoys being petted, will follow you around everywhere, and enjoys playing with his three adult dog siblings. He can be a little shy when he first meets another dog, but quickly gains confidence. He is not shy at all when meeting people. He loves everyone he meets. BUCKLEY would love another dog to learn from and hang out with, but may do well in a home as an only dog if his family wants to spend lots of time with him. If there is not another dog in the family he would benefit from play dates with other dogs.

ADOPTED – Say hello to our sweet little CINDY LOU. CINDY is a 25lb, 4m old BC mix female. She has a super soft smooth coat and a cute little white tip tail. CINDY loves her people and will follow her foster mom around the house, then settle at her feet or in her lap. She is a very cuddly, sweet girl! CINDY also loves other dogs and is very playful. She chases the cats in her foster home, but does not try to hurt them. She would do best in a home without cats, or with cats that are very dog savvy. 

ADOPTED – KIT is a delightfully fun 1 ½ to 2-year-old female, light rough coat black tri border collie. She is about 30 lbs., but don’t let her petite size fool you; this girl is a little powerhouse.  Kit was picked up stray with the ball of her left hip broken.  She has had surgery to correct this and has made a full recovery!  Only those who know what they’re looking for, will notice any change in her gait.

KIT is quick to learn and has the energy to put her training to use.  She has been started in nosework, is great at Frisbee and fetch, and has basic obedience skills.  She’s a great tugger and will release on command.
