My story

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

Monty came to us for training due to his stranger danger and no training or socializing. We have worked hard on his new greeting behaviors, outlet for his energy and training. He is a lower drive active dog with potential, he will reward his new owners with a very dedicated life of love and a dog that loves to be active! He would be best in a home with just him maybe another female dog around his age and a quiet home. (no parties, NO kids or grandkids, etc) I would love to see him in a home that likes to hike, play fetch and cuddle on the couch or maybe agility! He does well with management/training and exposure to new things, he will need continuing education on training for impulse control and allowing a lot of time to meet new people. Once he has an understanding of what is expected of him when meeting new people he is great with them! Easy in the crate, and house setting and out in the back yard. He loves to curl up after a good play session and cuddle on the couch with his loved ones. https://azbcr.org/Adopt/AvailableBorderCollies/RescueDetails.aspx?rid=5321

Additional adoption info

We have a 3-step adoption process to make sure you find the right dog for your family.
First you fill out an application, and then you will have a phone interview to find out just what type of dog you are looking for and if you are familiar with the breed. Next you will be scheduled for a home visit to better assess your needs and the appropriate activity level and age of a potential dog adoption. Last but most important you will be scheduled to meet the Border Collies that would suit you and your family the best for a long happy life together.
