CORAL AVAILABLE

This sweet little sea soul is an absolute darling of a girl. At 23 lbs and 6m, CORAL is out to steal your heart. Her smooth, soft white coat is highlighted with black spotted markings just emerging throughout her long body and cute ears. CORAL also has that signature border collie mark over her left eye. She came in with her brothers Marlin and Squid, but were separated about a week ago (you may have seen their preview post) and all are thriving.

AVAILABLE – LOKI

LOKI is 40 pounds of love and affection. He is approximately 5 years of age with a smooth, easy to maintain, black and white coat. LOKI adores people. He can think of nothing better than being loved on. In fact, he rolls over for belly rubs or stops at the door, turns around, and insists on pets before going out to do his business. He absolutely loves the attention and seeks physical contact companionship any time of day or night. We had friends over for game night, and we were very proud of how he behaved when meeting so many new people all at once.

FRED and GINGER – ADOPTION PENDING

**ADOPTION PENDING** Hello! We are FRED and GINGER and we are going to dance our way right into your heart. We are 9 weeks old and about 9-10 lbs. We will likely be around 40-45 lbs when fully grown.

TOBY AVAILABLE

Toby is an approximately 1.5-year-old Border Collie mix weighing in at a lean 42 pounds with all the classic traits that make this breed so special—intelligent, observant, and deeply tuned in to his environment. He’s the kind of dog who notices everything, thinks before he acts, and forms meaningful connections with his people.

PERKINS AVAILABLE

Hi, my name is Perkins – just call me Perk - and I am about 7 1/2 years young.  My Mom thinks I am a Border collie mixed with some type of guardian dog because I watch over my family and pack mates. I have notified them TWICE of rattlesnakes in our yard, barking loudly while keeping my pack mates at a safe distance away.  Mom says I am a hero dog, as we have little kids and lots of dogs in our yard that need protection from dangers like that.
