Welcome to The Gems and Treasures Litter
Born August 7–8, 2025, this special group of puppies has been thoughtfully raised by a canine behavior consultant and alongside their mom with an age-appropriate, enriching socialization program.
They’ve experienced Early Neurological Stimulation (ENS) and have been gently desensitized to everyday sounds such as fireworks, vacuums, thunderstorms, and garbage trucks—often while enjoying their meals. Their adventures have included neighborhood walks in a puppy stroller, visits to patio restaurants, retail stores, and outdoor concerts, and plenty of safe social time with both dogs and humans.
Each puppy has been introduced to basic training concepts, including taking food gently from a hand, and learning to lure into sit, down, and spin. They have started crate training and foundational potty training. Their pen environment changes daily to expose them to different textures, objects, and sounds, helping build strong environmental confidence. They are comfortable with items moving under their feet and sleeping in a separate room from humans.
Although their mom is a herding breed (Border Collie mix), each of these puppies is expected to grow quite large — with Sid likely being the biggest of the bunch.
All puppies have been wormed, received their first round of vaccinations, microchipped and are now ready to begin their next big adventure in life!
Meet Jet, the thoughtful explorer with a heart of gold. At 15 pounds, he’s a perfect blend of curious, cautious, and cuddly.
Jet likes to take in the world first—he’ll pause to assess before leaping into play, but once he’s in, he’s all about fun, toys, and adventure. He’s a master climber, loves his people deeply, and enjoys relaxing with his canine friends when the action slows down.
With a medium energy level, Jet sits right between Sid’s laid-back charm and Onyx’s lively spark. He’d thrive in a home with another friendly dog and people who appreciate his sensitive, loyal nature.
JET is started on his puppy vaccines, wormed, and microchipped. He is also on flea & tick and heartworm prevention. As a condition of puppy adoption, he will need to be neutered when he reaches approximately 6 months (specific time to be determined by your vet). In addition to the adoption fee, puppy adoption requires a $75 spay/neuter deposit. Upon our receiving the spay/neuter certificate from you, the deposit is refunded. If you have an approved Northern California Border Collie Rescue Application (or apply here – https://norcalbcrescue.org/adoption/adoption-application/) and wish to enquire about JET, please email us at Adoptions@norcalbcrescue.org.
