6/7/25:  Lisa and Richie came for a visit and decided to make it official by taking me home! They’re experienced with shy dogs and understand I’ll need a little time to settle in. I’ve already made a new friend, Abby—she’s about my age and full of confidence, which I’m sure she’ll help me build. It’s peaceful here, just the way I like it. They’ve already figured out how smart I am and know I’m a truly special dog.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

6/4/25:  Well, my DNA test results are in, and just as we thought—I’m mostly Collie! The Border Collie in me shows up in my coloring and my smarts, but when it comes to personality and temperament, I’m all Collie through and through. I’m a gentle, easygoing, and quiet kind of guy. Fetch isn’t really my thing, but I do enjoy trotting around the yard with a toy now and then.

 

5/11/25  I’m a 4-year-old, smart and lovable guy weighing in at about 60 pounds. I recently came to the rescue after my previous family could no longer afford to care for me. I’ve always been well looked after, so this big change has me a little confused.  I may not look exactly like a traditional Collie, but I’ve got the heart of one—and my DNA test is on the way to confirm it! I’m a sweet, loyal companion who loves to be by your side. I’m already doing great with basic obedience and walk nicely on a loose leash.  I’m house-trained, crate-trained (though I don’t really need the crate), and I ride like a champ in the car. I get along wonderfully with kids, other dogs, and even cats. I might be a little shy at first, but once I get to know you, I’ll be your devoted friend.

 

 

 

 

 

 

6/14/25:  After a long ride to the Kents’ home, I’m officially part of the family! I got super excited when we arrived when our first adventure was a walk around the neighborhood. So far, the cat and I have agreed on a truce, and we’re getting along just fine. This place is perfect for me, and I’m already soaking up all the love and attention I could ever want.

 

6/1/25:  I’m a sweet nine-year-old Collie fellow weighing about 55 pounds. After my person passed away, I found my way to the rescue. Since arriving, I’ve had a spa day at the groomer, and I’m scheduled to be neutered next week.  I’m housetrained, crate trained, travel nicely in the car, and get along well with other dogs. My full evaluation is still in progress, so stay tuned—my bio will be updated as the rescue team learns more about me!

 

 

 

5/31/25:  Today I joined the Krupit Family, and I’m already getting all the love and attention a collie could ask for! It was a long ride home, but I traveled like a champ and napped most of the way. I’ve already explored every inch of my new yard and then settled in for a well-earned nap on the deck. A big thank you to everyone who helped me find my way to this wonderful home!

 

 

 

5/11/25:  I’m a 3-year-old Collie gentleman, weighing around 65 pounds. I’m housetrained and crate trained, though I really don’t need a crate. I was originally raised indoors with cats and a small dog, but as I got older, I transitioned to living in an outdoor kennel. I kept finding ways to escape, and my family decided it would be safer for me to come to the rescue.

I walk nicely on a leash and am currently learning my obedience commands. I’m a sweet, gentle soul who gets along with everyone I meet. This week, I’ll be heading to the groomer and the vet for my neuter—and then I’ll be all set to find my forever home!
