Story
We have had Ghost (formerly known on social media as Juniper, then Frost) out of the vet a couple of weeks now, and he is ready to start his search for his forever people! We believe that he is a border collie mix. DNA has been sent to Wisdom Panel because we are so curious! This is what we know so far! • Approx 2–3 years old, 24 • Confident, outgoing, and very people-oriented • Sweet, affectionate, and glued to his foster right away • Appears to be potty trained • Knows sit and is very receptive to training • Engages easily and wants to work — likely would enjoy sports such as agility, disc, or scent work • Loves frisbee, tug, and is already learning to bring toys back • Super high energy …wants to play all the time- with you and with toys • So far, pretty quiet (fingers crossed) With Other Dogs: Ghost is friendly and social but initially over-excited, which isn’t surprising after being kenneled for over a month at the shelter and vet. • Takes corrections well • No aggression noted • Not reactive in his crate when dogs pass by • Previously kenneled with other dogs at the shelter • Needs time to settle (but let’s be honest, he was in the shelter and then at the vet… he is still decompressing) Ghost is freshly neutered, microchipped, has all shots Interested parties, please email stacy@k9spirit.org Application is on our website www.k9spirit.org or Stacy can email it to you. Adoption process: Application, contact if a good fit on paper, phone interview, home safety check and meet and greet.

Story
Brewski’s previous owner was hospitalized and could no longer care for this sweet guy so AALOC took him in. This young Border Collie mix is very playful and loving and gets along great with other dogs. Brewski is a medium-size dog, weighing in at about 45 pounds. According to the American Kennel Club the Border Collie are amazing dogs. They are particularly energetic, athletic, and playful and are known for being workaholics. Although a Border Collie will enjoy cuddle time, it is only after they have spent their energy with walks, play and training. In the canine world, Border Collies are among the most agile, balanced, and durable breeds. They are usually very good at agility training and giving a Border Collie a job is important to their happiness. Border Collies are also known for their intense ‘herding eye’ gaze and their almond-shaped eyes. Please apply to adopt Brewski at www.AALOC.org. Once your application is reviewed and approved we will contact you to make an appointment to visit us at AALOC to meet Brewski and get to know him a bit. Adoption donation includes spay/neuter, vaccinations, and a microchip. Applications require a veterinary reference and home visit. We adopt to residents of Orange County, CA and surrounding areas. Please note: For families with children, we require children to be 10 years of age or older, although exceptions are made depending on the circumstances. For more information on our adoption policies visit our website at www.AALOC.org or contact us by e-mail at aaloc@aaloc.org.

Story
Shut the front door—meet Ellie! This stunning girl is elegance, brains, and heart all wrapped into one gorgeous 1-year-old Border. Ellie is about 30 lbs (could use ~5 more) and absolutely shines in an active home that can keep up with her quick mind and happy feet.   Ellie’s play style is fast and her energy is high, making her an ideal match for an outdoorsy family or an individual looking for a running or hiking buddy. She’s clever (counter-surfers beware ), eager to learn, and would be a fantastic agility prospect with the right guidance and enrichment.   She’s house trained, good with other dogs and cats, and uses her crate by choice—it’s there for her comfort, not confinement. Ellie would thrive with a large yard or acreage where she can stretch her legs and put her smarts to work.   If you’re ready for a loyal, athletic companion who just needs the right energy match, Ellie might be your girl.   More info: 949-456-7032 or 949-842-2517 Apply to adopt: www.greendogfoundation.com Email: greendogfoundation@gmail.com   Physical Qualities   Age: 1 year Weight: ~30 lbs (could gain ~5 lbs) Breed: Border Collie  Coat/Color: Black & white Temperament: Smart, energetic, affectionate Training: House trained; crate trained Compatibility: Dogs &#226&#156&#148&#239&#184&#143 Cats &#226&#156&#148&#239&#184&#143 Ideal Home: Active lifestyle, enrichment-focused, yard or acreage    February 11, 2026, 3:01 pm

Border Collie Australian Cattle Dog

Story
We took on a puppy dog over a year ago (she’s now 25 months old) and were really looking forward to her being a wonderful addition to our pack. She’s a sweetheart with people but has failed to integrate well with our existing dogs. We have come to realize that she needs another home. The main goal is loving caring owners for her, best if as an only/solo pet without other dogs to be in competition with. Or perhaps bigger dogs established who will keep her in place of calm submission. She would be a great family dog, and could be trained to help out with farm duties. Thank you so much for considering her as a new addition to your family. We pray she would be a true blessing to you all!

Story
**Meet Benjamin! 🤍** Benjamin is a **2.5-year-old** **Border Collie / Great Pyrenees mix** and a big, handsome boy weighing around **75 pounds**. Despite his size, Benjamin is a true gentle giant with a calm, loving nature that makes him a wonderful companion. Benjamin is a **sweet and affectionate dog** who enjoys a quieter pace of life. He walks beautifully on a leash and prefers **slow, meandering strolls** where he can take in the world around him. He’s a fairly mellow guy who doesn’t bark much and settles easily into a relaxed routine. He is **house trained** and does well around a variety of animals. Benjamin gets along with cats and has been fine with all the farm animals he’s met on his walks. He tolerates other dogs, though he can be a bit nervous when meeting new canine friends and would do best with calm introductions and patient guidance. Benjamin is friendly with everyone he’s met so far, though he has not yet been tested with children. Benjamin is **neutered, up to date on vaccines, and microchipped**, and ready to find his forever home. He would thrive in a peaceful household looking for a loyal, gentle companion who enjoys calm walks, quiet company, and lots of love. If you’re searching for a **sweet, easygoing, gentle soul**, Benjamin may be the perfect addition to your family 🐾💙
