My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

 Nina, a lovely sable-headed white, spayed female smooth Collie, just celebrated her 2nd birthday here in Colorado.  She came to us from an owner that had fallen on tough times and wanted to be sure his precious dog got the best of everything.  And that is what we are here for.  Nina has been spayed recently and had all of her vaccines.  Her bloodwork is awesome and she is microchipped with a Home Again chip. She had an intestinal parasite that is now cleared up.  And she is now medically ready for her forever home.  The reason we use foster families for each of the RMCSR dogs is so that one family gets to know each dog intimately to help discover where each dog belongs to have the best life possible.  That is the way we have been placing dogs for decades and it works.  What the Art family has discovered about Nina is that she adores children.  Nina will not be a truly happy dog unless she has a couple of kids to play with and nap with and live for.  So, children will be a requirement of any potential adopter.  And Nina needs the company of at least one other young active dog that is full of fun like she is.  When she is not cuddling, she is playing.  And a 6' fence is also a necessity because our Nina is a bouncy pooch.  A smooth Collie steps it up a notch in activity level from the rough-coated variety of Collie. (That is anecdotal from the Director.)  Experienced Collie people have a definite preference for rough Collies (long haired like Lassie) or smooth Collies like precious Nina (the short-haired variety.)  Some of us love them all!
