Story
Buddy is a sweet, playful, and affectionate 2-year-old, 55-lb neutered male Border Collie mix who’s searching for his forever home. He’s social, active, and loves engaging with his people—whether that’s playtime, walks, or learning something new. He's leash-trained and loves to play fetch, showcasing his athletic side and attentive nature. He's ready to be your adventure pal and loves to calm down with belly rubs and love and affection. True to his breed, Buddy is very intelligent and responsive to guidance. He listens well and thrives with an adopter who enjoys working with a smart, energetic dog. Because Border Collies can be naturally mouthy, Buddy would do best in an adult-only home or with an experienced family with children over 10 years old who understand and respect canine boundaries. Buddy is a healthy, microchipped, and up-to-date on all vaccinations—ready to step right into his next chapter with a loving home. 🐾 Buddy is currently being fostered in the Los Angeles area, but transport can be arranged to any U.S. location. Interested in adopting Buddy? Please send an email to info@olliesangelsaws.org or call 702-769-4474.

Story
Border Collie/Aussie mix femaleWelcome Mae! Mae is a Border Collie/ Aussie / kelpie mix. She was intentionally bred by some ranchers and then kicked to the curb at a very young age because she didn’t show working potential. Some former CCHDR adopters got wind of this and took her in temporarily - got her spayed, up to date on vaccines, and then reached out to us for help with placement. Mae is super sweet and friendly with people, kids, and other dogs. NO cats, chickens, or livestock. She’s HIGH energy and intelligent…all the things you’d expect from a dog of this breed makeup. She’s young too - only 9 months old, 30-35lbs. She’s got some manners and basic obedience to learn, but has her wits about her. She just needs a dedicated and training-focused handler to make up for lost time. She is crate trained. Mae is looking to be someone’s pet. She will need an active, breed-savvy home to keep up with her mentally and physically. Do you have what it takes to keep a dog of this caliber fulfilled? If so, send us an application.

Story
Molly was born on September 11, 2024. We adopted her from a family in Clovis, CA. when she was 12 weeks old. Molly is sweet, and very playful. Molly has been spayed by Woods in Atascadero, CA. We are looking for a loving family for Molly, she needs more attention than we are able to give to her as we both have demanding full-time jobs. Molly would be wonderful with children, she loves to play and would be ideal for a family who has time to dedicate to her, walks, runs, etc. Molly is very smart she can sit on demand.

REBA

Border Collie American Pit Bull Terrier

Female, 4 yrs 1 mo
San Luis Obispo, CA
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details
Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Reba is a 4-year-old spayed Border Collie who is friendly but appreciates a slow introduction. She was surrendered through no fault of her own—Reba was being picked on by the other two dogs in the home. Reba has lived only with those dogs and will need slow, thoughtful introductions to new canine friends. While she did chase the cat on the property, a cat-free home or careful management would be best. Reba was gentle and appropriate with her previous owner when introduced to older children. This sensitive girl would do best in a calm, structured home with someone who understands her breed and can help her build confidence. With patience and stability, Reba will likely blossom into a loyal and loving companion.
