Meet Michael: A Special Border Collie Looking for a Loving Home
About Michael
Michael is a remarkable 3-year-old Border Collie with a heartwarming story. Weighing in at 50 pounds, Michael's journey has been a testament to resilience and kindness. Once a street dog, he was lovingly fed by the neighborhood community when he didn’t have a place to call home.
A Journey of Resilience
Michael's life took a challenging turn when he was hit by a car, resulting in the loss of one of his legs. However, this brave pup's spirit remained unbroken. He was taken into rescue, where he has been flourishing in the care of a loving foster home in New Brunswick.

Michael is not only sweet but also incredibly smart. His endearing personality shines through in everything he does. Here are some wonderful things about Michael:
Walks on Lead: Despite his missing leg, Michael walks beautifully on a lead.
Calm and Quiet: He sits quietly and enjoys moments of peace.
Loves Affection: Michael delights in being petted and is sure to bring joy to anyone who spends time with him.
Dog-Friendly: He gets along well with other dogs, making him a great companion for any furry friends you may have.

Loyal: He stays close to home, demonstrating his loyalty and desire to be part of a family.
