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.

**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 🐾💙

Story

If you’re looking for a full-time trail buddy and loyal best friend, this might be your guy. My wife and I are currently fostering a fun-loving 5-month-old Border Collie/Husky mix. He was on his way to a shelter just a few days ago, and we couldn’t let that happen. We brought him home to give him a chance at finding an amazing family. We both travel weekly for work, so coordinating schedules can be a bit of a juggling act, but we’ve made the next few weeks work to give him stability and time to find the right fit. In just a couple of days, here’s what we’ve learned about him: About 50/50 on potty training (and improving!) Sleeps quietly through the night in his kennel without a peep Walks well on a leash Rarely barks Friendly with people and other dogs Chews only on his toys (and occasionally on me during playtime) Already knows a couple of basic commands He’s sweet, smart, playful, and has that perfect mix of adventure and affection.

Story

This is Oreo! He’s a border collie mix. He is almost 2 years old. He loves adventures, walks, water and to cuddle! He’s a little scared and wary when meeting new people but warms up if you come with treats! He had been raised with a cat who is his best buddy! We can no longer keep him because our older dog does not get along with him and we can’t rehome our older dog. He would be an amazing addition to any family! Willing to pay for neuter and updated shots as well ! To the right family I will also waive the fee !

Story

Whiskey and both are two year old brothers. They have always been together. These dogs are super sweet and lovable. My husband and I got them from another family nearby a month ago. I am usually always home and available to spend time with them but, the day after we got them my 87 year old mother had a heart attack and went into the hospital. She was in the hospital for 22 days and is now in a skilled nursing facility. I have been at the hospital and now the nursing facility every day. My mom had a very hard time and it was crucial for her to have family around her while she healed. She will be coming home this coming week. Then, two weeks ago I was diagnosed with cancer. I am having surgery at the end of this month. My life has completely changed in the past month. Whiskey and Bolt are very smart, happy dogs but need someone who has the time to spend with them. They are trained to sit, and wait to eat. I am hopeful that there’s a family out there that would like to take both of them.

Story

Ava is absolutely AMAZING with kids and people of all ages. She loves humans more than anything and craves deep connection — she wants to be as close to her person as possible at all times. If you’re looking for a dog who will adore you completely, Ava is your girl.She is fully potty trained, rides well in the car, and would thrive in a home with a fully fenced, secure yard where she can burn energy and then come inside for cuddles.Ava cannot live with cats due to high prey drive and is recommended as the only dog in the home. While she has had one carefully built dog friendship, she generally has a strong aversion to other dogs. She will also need some continued work on leash skills.Ava deserves a loving home that will embrace her big heart and give her the connection she craves.March 9, 2026, 8:52 pm

Cowboy is a sensitive, introverted boy with a naturally calm and gentle presence. He’s mellow and thoughtful, forming deep bonds with his people rather than seeking the spotlight.

After recent trauma, he may be a bit insecure at first, but with safety, clarity, and consistency, he settles in beautifully.Cowboy can do well with balanced, mature dogs who have calm temperaments. And as a bonus, he’s rocking a natural mohawk that would make Mr. T jealous. Gentle, loyal, and devoted, Cowboy is ready for a home that appreciates a soft, steady soul.March 7, 2026, 3:29 pm
