My story

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

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

If interested in adopting, read about our Adoption Process and complete an Adoption Application on the Mo-Kan website.  A Mo-Kan application must be filled out to begin the process.(Sending an "Inquiry" via Petfinder does not constitute an application.)
 



Meet Quincy!

Quincy is a 1-year-old Border Collie with a whole lot of heart packed into a petite 30 lbs. He came to us from a California shelter where he was sadly out of time, and we’re so glad he got his second chance. Now that he’s settling into a routine, Quincy is showing just how special he is.

The Good Stuff (and there’s a lot!)

 •  Very dog friendly! Quincy loves other dogs and especially enjoys a rowdy playmate. He’s enthusiastic but respectful and takes corrections well from older, grumpier dogs.

 •  Food drive: OFF THE CHARTS. Truly a 10/10. Quincy will happily work for snacks and learns FAST. In just a week he’s mastered sit (with eye contact!), down, spin/twist, and pedestal/Klimb. If you’ve ever dreamed of an eager trainee—this is your guy.

•  Crate & kennel trained. Quiet, clean, and comfortable.

•  Super affectionate. Quincy is a cuddler and loves being close to his people.

•  Great car rider. Ready for adventures near and far!

•  Toy drive is moderate. He naturally fetches to hand and likes balls and squeaky toys (hasn’t discovered tug or disc yet).

Things He’s Still Working On

•  Confidence building. When Quincy first arrived, he showed lots of appeasement behaviors (jumping, licking hands, groveling). This has already improved tremendously, and he continues to gain confidence every day. We suspect his past wasn’t always kind.      

The Perfect Home

With patient, positive training, Quincy will shine as a family pet, adventure buddy, or even a future sport prospect. He’s smart, eager, affectionate, and trying so hard to be the best boy.

He is up-to-date on vaccines, microchipped and neutered.

If you’re looking for a sweet, trainable Border Collie who’s ready to blossom with the right person—Quincy might just be your perfect match.

Quincy is being fostered in the St. Louis, MO area.
