My story

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

FENCE PREFERRED BUT NOT REQUIRED


Meet Strider, a lovely 7-year-old male Rough Collie with a beautiful coat to match his beautiful disposition. Strider is gentle, affectionate, and carries himself with the quiet confidence that comes from maturity and kindness. He has an intelligent, thoughtful nature and a strong willingness to learn, making him an excellent candidate for a therapy dog or a devoted companion for someone who values connection and calm presence.

Strider is the kind of dog who seems to understand your emotions, offering comfort with a soft gaze or a steady presence by your side. He enjoys human companionship and thrives when he feels included and loved. His manners and eagerness to please make him a joy to have in the home, whether you’re enjoying peaceful evenings or leisurely walks.

Strider came from a loving home but sadly, his medical and activity levels were not fulfilled. He is just finishing up his heartworm treatment after powering through like a champ and is ready for his new furever home. He has some slight mobility issues, can do stairs but would prefer shorter walks. What he lacks in that department, he more than makes up for it in companionship and love.

With his handsome looks, loyal heart, and gentle soul, Strider will truly stride right into your heart and make himself at home forever.

Strider is being fostered in GA (Atlanta area)

More about this rescue

WHO WE ARE:

TRI STATE COLLIE RESCUE VOLUNTEERS have been professional breeders and dog show exhibitors, and we have more then 50 years of combined professional experience with the collie breed. In addition, our group includes devoted collie owners and lovers. We are listed as a recognized rescue group with the COLLIE CLUB OF AMERICA

OUR MISSION:

To end the indiscriminate breeding practices of irresponsible breeders, to educate the public about the lifetime responsibilities of caring for a pet, including the necessity of spaying and neutering, and to promote the return of undying love and devotion collies offer their owners. Too many purebred collies are found as strays, in dog shelters, or in the humane societies. We hope to eliminate the euthanasia of these collies.
