MILO is a happy, fun, athletic 22 month old Border Collie looking for an active home where he will be an included family member.
Good energetic boy who will be an amazing running and hiking partner, but also has an 'off' switch and knows how to relax in the house.
He will lay by your feet for naps, after he gets some exercise.
Milo is a great companion for an active person/couple who wants a loving boy to share their life.
Super dog friendly.
Housetrained.
Crate trained.
Loves to play fetch and run around playing with other dogs.
Smart boy who knows basic commands 'sit, stay, wait, comes when you call his name' and would love to learn more commands/tricks.
Great car rider.
Not a big barker.
Sleeps through the night.
Older children recommended, due to typical young Border Collie mouthy behavior when he gets excited - he responds very well to 'no, uh-uh' and redirects.
Enjoys his daily walks, just needs a little work walking on leash. Probably had not been on leash before going to foster home.
He is learning quickly and getting better everyday.
Has not been cat tested, so will not be adopted to a home with cats.
Only homes with fenced yards can be considered for this guy.
Milo is 53 lbs. neutered, microchipped, up to date on vaccines, including rabies, heartworm negative and current on prevention.
*In addition to his adoption fee, there is a $175 transport fee to bring this boy dog to the PNW.

Thrives with one on one attention, and would be happy as the only pup in your life.
He does fine around our two cats but has learned to keep his distance.

Molly
Adoption Pending!
Waiting in Texas to come to the PNW
|

MOLLY is a smaller, affectionate 2 year old Australian Shepherd mix looking for a loving home where she can be with her humans and won't be left home alone for long hours.
She loves people and craves human affection.
Loves to put her head in your lap and lovingly look at you with her big, beautiful brown eyes.
Dog friendly girl who is playful and patient with other dogs of all sizes.
Good medium energy level that will match her human, as long as they are not marathon runners.
She likes to be by your side and be active, but knows when it's time to relax.
Molly likes to jump up and give kisses, so she will need an adopter willing to help her learn that greetings with '4 paws on the ground' can be great too.
Enjoys playing with squeaky toys, balls and the rope toy.
Smart girl who is learning basic commands, like 'sit, come and release', when playing with toys or balls.
Only homes with a fenced yard can be considered, as she loves to run around and play ball.
She walks ok on leash, but is still getting used to a leash, which is why a fenced yard for her is important to run around.
Daily walks with her human would be ideal.
Would be best in a home that will be committed to a consistent routine, giving her affection and showing her love.
Before she came to our rescue, she was crated for long periods of time and due to that, is not a fan of the crate, which is why we are looking for a home for her where her crate time will be minimal to not at all.
Has not shown any destructive behavior inside or outside at her foster home.
Not a big barker, but will alert you to someone at the door.
Molly is working on potty training and has been doing great the last week. Consistent potty breaks every 4 hours with treat rewards is working well.
She didn't show any interest in cats when walked by one, but not officially cat tested. So we will only be considering a home with a cat if the cat has a way to be kept separate if necessary.
Has not been child tested, but we are recommending children over 10 due to her still learning not to jump up and use her mouth to get your attention.
With consistent exercise and routine, this intelligent, highly trainable girl will learn quickly and be a wonderful companion.

Missy
Waiting in Texas to come to the PNW

|
Missy is an adorable 18 month old female Border Collie. She weighs about 35 pounds, is spayed, HW negative, and vaccinated. She is house-trained and even knows how to use a doggy door - how convenient! Missy is also crate-trained, a good thing since she loves car rides and would like to join you in the driver's seat to help get where she's going.
Missy loves everyone - kids and adults. She is a little reserved which is a herding dog trait, but sits well for pets. Missy also loves all dogs and really would like a doggy companion in her forever home. We don't know about cats.
Missy has great leash manners and enjoys outings. She'd make a great jogging or hiking partner too. Her energy level is moderate, considering her age and breed. She loves to play with other dogs but is also content to lay next to you with a good chew toy.
Missy will cry when left alone but if she has a doggy playmate or lots of toys she is much better. She wants to be part of a family so someone who works from home or is home most of the time would be a great choice for her.
Missy has a great personality, she's calm and well mannered. She loves pets and belly rubs. She has energy but knows when to use it.
Besides her adoption fee, there is an additional $250 to pay for Missy's transport to the Pacific NW.
