My story

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

Skye is 11 years old and we have had her since she was 6 weeks old. She has always had a gorgeous coat and while she is 11 years old, she looks and acts like she is only 5 or 6. She is a sweet dog and is obsessed with fetch. However, because of her age, her activity has to be limited. She will run and run as long as you play with her, so her new owner has to be diligent about not letting her run too much. If she runs too much, she becomes really sore and can sometimes lose her bladder control a bit in her sleep.

Unfortunately, as we have grown our family (we have a 2 year old), we have learned that she is best suited for a family with older children or no children at all. She is not aggressive, but has that famous Border Collie focus and intensity when it comes to fetch and because of this, she isn't aware of her surroundings and can easily knock over a small child if she has a toy around. She also likes to be the center of attention as she has grown up an only child/pet.
