Wow. We have a wonderful border collie/collie/ and maybe a few more things mixed at the shelter. An older gent brought him in yesterday. Great dog, loves people, well-behaved. The guy said his daughter picked the dog up almost dead, nursed him to health, but then got married or otherwise moved out to Houston and couldn't take the dog, and he just was too much for the man to handle.

Looks like he's the kind you'd love. It's great someone will take in the lost souls.

im a fussy person with collies but theres several collie rescues that dont put too sleep i dont or wont go too the RSPCA after a issue a while ago with one of there dogs..
but these 2 r both free and would probably go too a kill shelter as collies have such an active need!
im hoping that i can get the 1st one seems perfect for agility, but a 9 month old has lots of energy and more easier too train

Im still awaiting my pics lol,
i dunno when im getting her mothers owner sed shes ready know which we all know 6 weeks is far too young!, so im asking today if she will hold her for a while people down here (not all) fall inlove with the thought of there dog having puppies, then once pups start too do all the naughty puppy things.... they want rid asap


i was going too go rescue, because of our JRT who was bought but when me and rox werent living together, actually i was 300 miles away lol, rix had the JRT and i never got too train him so training him now is a royal pain

hes a smart dog but was far too spoilt...
the foot is down no matter how cute this collie is she needs too know she is lower in the pecking order...

The great thing is ALL our cats adore the dogs....
not one of them runs from them and we frequently wake up too purring too se one of the kittens/cats lieng on a dog

how exciting!! welcome to the world of border collies!

i have had my boy dylan for 4 years and wouldn't be without him. (sadly the previous 4 owners didn't feel the same way.)

hears to a life of madness, border collie style!

Congrats! I love the name Bella, in fact I was thinking of using it if I got a female dog. I am currently looking for a dog to adopt but I am having so much trouble choosing...
