My story

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

Hi there, my name is Vaca and I am a sweet and shy border collie mix who is on the hunt for my forever home! I was really nervous when I first came into the SPCA, but my friends here have really showed me that meeting new friends isn't all too scary and that it is really fun to play with new friends!

Kids? Since I am a bit on the timid side, I'm not too sure about little ones. I would like to meet any kiddos in the home to make sure they know to go slow with me!

Dogs? I'm not super comfortable with new dog friends just yet, so I might be best on my own. I am willing to meet potential doggie friends at the shelter before we head home! I think I would be ok with a calmer dog who is well socialized and can help me learn how to dog.

Want to meet me? Come on in any day between 12PM-6PM at our 2400 Lone Star Dr location!
