12/14/25:  I’m a handsome 2-year-old collie boy weighing 76 pounds. The rescue folks think I could feel my very best with about 10 pounds off, so I’m already working on that with a healthy diet and regular exercise. Axel is my dad and Star is my sister, and the three of us came into rescue together after our family went through a divorce. We are excited about starting this new chapter and look toward brighter days ahead.  I’m house-trained and crate-trained, and I ride very nicely in the car, making me a great companion for outings and adventures. I’m also working on loose-leash walking and my basic obedience commands. I’m a smart boy and eager to please, especially when gentle guidance and praise are involved.  Personality-wise, I’m a sweet, kind fellow with a fairly easygoing nature. I enjoy being around people, taking things at a comfortable pace, and just being part of whatever is going on. My evaluation is still in progress, so be sure to check back soon for updates as the rescue learns more about me and watches me continue to blossom.
