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.
