My story

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

Be the one who loves MISS SKY forever!

This sweet girl is anticipated to be 4 years old on October 4th and weighs approximately 17 pounds as of September 21, 2025.

MISS SKY is a good girl and here is what her rescuer writes:

"- Sky is shy and calm, with an independent side but also a “velcro” dog who loves to be near her humans.
- She will be timid at first and may need some time to adjust to new environments.
- She enjoys walks on a leash and bonding with her family.
- She enjoys calm affection and gentle interactions and thrives on human company.
- She is an easygoing dog, perfect for a relaxed household.
- Gets along well with other dogs of different sizes, though she mostly follows them rather than interacting.
- Not tested with cats, but likely won’t have issues.
- Has lived with a 12-year-old child; not tested with toddlers.
- Would do best in a house with a yard, as she can be a little nervous about going outside for potty, although she loves walks on a leash.
- She’d do better in a quiet home, away from the city.
- Can be an only dog as long as she has company most of the day.
- May take a little time to adjust to new people or visitors, but warms up quickly once she feels safe.
- Can stay alone for short periods, but prefers company most of the time.
- House-trained and crate-trained.
- Knows basic leash manners, but not commands.
- Barking level: very low; she hardly ever barks.
- Not very food-motivated with treats, so may require patience and praise for training.
- Does not have food guarding behavior.
- Does not feel comfortable being picked up, but enjoys being close to you.
- Not a very good traveler for long distances, as she may throw up, but comfortable in the kennel for shorter trips without showing anxiety. She will leave the kennel or car if shown her leash; otherwise, she will stay where she is.
- Behaves nicely at the vet and allows staff to handle her without issues.
- Stays calm during thunderstorms, though she can be a little alert when she hears sudden noises.
- One thing is certain - she will be a devoted companion who follows you everywhere around the house."

We think MISS SKY is a beautiful mixed breed Border Collie.

PLEASE READ: This dog is currently located in Puerto Rico. Once an adopter is approved, we transport to New York/New Jersey!

We strive for our dogs to be adopted into the right home. The best fit for the dog is our priority.

Please make sure you are ready to properly exercise and give a dog all it need for fulfillment.

In addition, we cannot guarantee breed of any dog or expected adult size of puppy. Please also note that any dog that is "house trained" will still need patience in a new home, new people and new schedule. Please be ready to house train ANY dog you adopt! Thank you for understanding.
