Busy Borders Rescue's adoption process

Additional adoption info

Our adoption donation is $175 which includes all up to date medical care. Donations are always welcome for those dogs that needed more than what the adoption donation covers. We have an application that must be filled out for approval before we will consider an appointment to meet a pet. Border collies on the whole are active pets and need active homes. The dogs in our care are our prime interest therefore, a dog that may interest you may not be suited for your home. We work to make the best possible match for both the dogs and adopters.

About Busy Borders Rescue

We are a small, family run rescue who provides shelter and care to border collies in need. While in care, each dog is evaluated and provided medical care. We also provide training as needed before a dog is placed.

Support adoption and rescue. Why go to a dog breeder, cat breeder or pet store to buy a dog or buy a cat when you can adopt?

Why should you adopt?

Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life.

What is the difference between adopting a dog, adopting a cat, adopting a kitten or adopting a puppy versus getting dogs for sale, cats for sale, puppies for sale or kittens for sale from a dog breeder or a cat breeder?

When someone is breeding puppies or breeding kittens, they are creating new dogs and cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog, cat, puppy or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale or buy a cat for sale from a puppy breeder or a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs and cats who must find homes.

So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder or buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog, adopt a cat, adopt a puppy or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.
