11/2/25:  I’ve joined the wonderful Stevenson Family and am settling in beautifully at my new home. I’m getting all the love and attention I could ever wish for with so many pets, cuddles, and smiles! This is exactly the home I was hoping for, and I feel so lucky to have found my perfect people.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

10/30/25:  I was such a good boy for my grooming today! It might have been the very first time I’ve ever had a real, thorough brushing, and wow there was hair everywhere! I feel so much lighter and more comfortable now that all that loose fur is gone. The groomer said I looked very handsome afterward, and I have to agree!

 

 

10/19/25:  I’m a handsome six-year-old Collie gentleman with a big heart and, well, a little extra padding at around 80 pounds. My new friends say I’m on the “get healthy” plan, so I’m watching my portions and taking more walks until I reach my ideal weight. Despite my size, I move with the signature Collie grace and charm!  Personality-wise, I’m the total package. I’m friendly with kids, get along wonderfully with other dogs, and even have a soft spot for cats. I just love being part of the family and hanging out with everyone. I’m also quite the gentleman, fully housetrained, easy on the leash, and always up for a nice car ride.  I’ll be getting a much-needed grooming on Wednesday, and once all this extra fluff is brushed away, I’ll look (and feel) much lighter and even more handsome. My previous person loved me very much but had to move in with family and, sadly, couldn’t take me along. So now, I’m hoping for a new forever home where I can share my gentle spirit, loving heart, and joyful companionship every day.

 

 

 

11/1/25:  I finally made it to my new home with the wonderful Pirooznia family, and I did so well on the drive! We stopped once along the way to stretch our legs and take a short walk, but I slept peacefully for most of the trip. When we arrived, I was full of curiosity and excitement and trotted around exploring every corner of the house, taking in all the new sights and smells.  This is my new buddy, Blu. We look so much alike that we could almost be twins, except Blu is a Sheltie! He’s been such a great host, showing me around and making me feel right at home. The best part? He invited me up on the couch right away.  As you can see, I’ve already settled in beautifully. I feel safe, happy, and so loved. I can tell this is the beginning of a wonderful new chapter, and I can’t wait to see what adventures await me with my new family and my pal Blu.

 

 

10/19/25:  I’m a sweet three-year-old Collie girl weighing 55 pounds, just the right size for both playtime and snuggles! I’m fully housetrained, love my crate (especially with my favorite toy inside), and I’m great on leash walks and car rides. I get along wonderfully with other dogs, and even cats.  I already know several commands like “sit,” “come,” “paw,” and “go potty,” and I’m eager to learn more. Sometimes I forget I’m not a tiny dog and love to curl up in your lap for extra cuddles.
