12/21/24:  I’m going home with the McNichols for Christmas! They fell in love with my playful antics and my adorable cuteness. They’ve been missing having a collie, and I’m so happy to fill that spot. When we got to our house, there was snow on the ground, and I’m absolutely loving the colder weather. This is the perfect place for me, and I know I’ll be very much loved here.

12/15/24:  I am a 2-year-old, sable merle, handsome boy weighing around 72 pounds. Unfortunately, my owner is now in poor health and can no longer care for me. I have been well-loved and well cared for. I’m housetrained, crate trained, and I know basic commands. I walk nicely on a leash and get along well with other dogs. While I don’t mind cats, I might chase them if they run. I’m also learning to keep my feet on the floor and not jump up.

12/18/24:  Sandra visited us today, and her sister and dog, Cloe, joined her. Cloe took a liking to me right away, and I can tell the girls and I will get along well. Sandra has experience with shy dogs and understands that I need time to adjust to my new home and get to know her. With her abundance of love and patience, I know I’ll feel comfortable and happy with her.

12/15/24:  I am a 7-year-old, 50-pound blue merle collie girl. Sadly, my owner is in poor health and can no longer care for me. I’m a sweet, loving girl, though a little shy and unsure about everything going on. I get along well with other dogs, and cats are ok with me. I’m housetrained, don’t require a crate, and walk beautifully on a leash. I would love a calm, quiet home with a cozy doggie bed.

12/8/24:  It turns out Mike had been looking for a dog just like me. He’s been feeling a bit lonely since he lost his collie and walking companion. I eagerly jumped into the truck for the long drive to my new home. Once we arrived, I explored the house and the yard, enjoyed a delicious dinner, and then settled in for a nap. This is definitely the perfect place for me.

12/7/24:  I’m a 75-pound sable & white guy, and I just turned 8 years old. My family is moving out of state for work and unfortunately can’t take me with them. I’m well-mannered at home, travel wonderfully in the car, and walk pretty well on a leash. I know some basic commands, and I’m always eager to do anything for a treat! I get along well with other dogs and absolutely love people—especially those who scratch my behind. I’ll let you know if strangers are around, but I’m not much of a barker.
