My personality

My story

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

Cooper is the dream dog everybody hopes to adopt - with strikingly good looks, a deeply affectionate spirit, a wonderfully balanced and super friendly personality, an even temperament and a moderate energy level that fits beautifully into most everyone's lifestyle, he truly checks every box.

Cooper is the total package for an active household looking for a fun, well-rounded companion that can slip right in and become part of the family without stress. Cooper thrives on human companionship, is playful without being over-the-top and is wonderfully biddable. He's a homebody with no interest in running off and has exceptional recall. He loves attention, food, playing fetch, car rides, walks, kissing and cuddling, squeaky toys, sleeping on the couch and playtime with canine friends. He also has a great ability to self-entertain, happily tossing around a squeaky toy when his people are busy.

Cooper is very intelligent and well manned. He knows basic commands, waits to be released for his food and at the door; and, he cooperatively waits for his treats alongside his canine housemates.

Cooper is happiest when he has a large space to stretch his legs and a canine buddy to hang out with romp and play with. So, another young, playful dog is high priority for his new home, along with a large yard where he can safely run and burn off energy.

Cooper is a purebred Border Collie around 2 years old and 45 pounds. He is in excellent health, housebroken, crate trained, neutered, microchipped, dewormed, utd on vaccines, heartworm

negative and on prevention medications.

Cooper is being fostered in Chocowinity, NC by ARC Border Collie Rescue.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

If you are interested in adopting a ARC Border Collie, please visit our website to complete an adoption application. Once you have completed the application, one of our volunteers will contact you to set up a home visit.

If you adopt a dog from ARCBCR, it will come to you spayed or neutered, current on all vaccines, heartworm tested and current on heartworm preventative. Our Adoption Fee starts at $200 for sweet seniors, $300 for adults & $400 for puppies ($100 reimbursement once spayed/neutered). You can be assured that each and every penny goes back into the next dog we take in. The reality is, while you are making arrangements to take home your new family member, one of us is making arrangements to evaluate and rescue the next ARCBCR dog in need.

All ARC Border Collies live with foster families until they are ready to be adopted. We do not have a physical shelter. Once you have completed the application process and home evaluation you will be able to visit our dogs in their foster homes which are located in Virginia, North Carolina and Maryland. ARC will work with you to find the best dog for your lifestyle.

More about this rescue

Atlantic Region Central Border Collie Rescue, Inc., (ARCBCR) is a dream come true for a passionate group of Border Collie lovers who had the good fortune of meeting, and befriending each other through past rescue work.

The purpose of ARCBCR is to rescue Border Collies and Border Collie mixes from situations that are neglectful, abusive, and endangering. We take in dogs from shelters, dogs found as strays, and dogs that can no longer be kept by their current families.

We provide the following for each and every one of our dogs: a loving and caring foster home, all necessary veterinarian care, including spay or neuter, and any rehabilitation a dog might need enabling it to acclimate into their forever, loving home.

ARCBCR is a small all volunteer non-profit 501(c)(3) group, so if you would like to make a donation to help us care for the dogs, your gift is tax deductible.
