Story
Nyssa is a 3-4 year-old spayed female Border Collie, around 40 lbs, who was rescued from a local CA shelter. Sadly, before finding herself abandoned and alone at the shelter, she likely grew up in the backyard confined to a kennel. Nyssa is now learning to live as a domestic pet. Amazingly and despite this, she remains a lively, energetic, and otherwise healthy dog who is remarkably intelligent, craves human interaction, and is very loyal to her hooman. Nyssa is intelligent, already understanding various commands such as "sit," "leave it" “sit pretty” and "inside” to go into the house.  She is also deeply loyal to her guardian and has a strong capacity for forming deep bonds typical of her breed. She is truly a remarkable dog who has the capacity to grow into an even more amazing companion through continued obedience training and by establishing a trusting relationship with her guardian. Nyssa is incredibly affectionate and loves people. She can be around other dogs without being on leash reactive. However, off leash and once confident, she has a habit of herding dogs, considering the trait of her breed. Nyssa loves to play ball and might be a Treibball enthusiast!  She walks well on a loose leash, crate trained and housebroken and sleeps through the night on her dog bed. Tested well with cats, but like with dogs, once confident, it is possible she may try to herd them, so possible she may need supervision/management.  Ther Ideal Family for Nyssa is: &#226&#156&#148&#239&#184&#143 Someone who understands her breed Border Collies, her adjustment to living in a home, and provides her sufficient mental and physical stimulation. &#226&#156&#148&#239&#184&#143 Someone who values bonding with their dog and is ready to build a deep connection. &#226&#156&#148&#239&#184&#143 Someone who can provide yard space for Nyssa to move and exercise freely. Nyssa still loves people and finds her greatest happiness in being with her Hooman. With so much intelligence and energy Nyssa has limitless potential to become your perfect lifelong companion. Her right family, is one that understands her and is ready to provide her with love, care and proper training – then she is your girl!

Story
Current Location: Korea 🇰🇷 ♡ 🧡 Meet Ma-eum A gentle soul learning to love again Ma-eum spent his early years tied outside on a farm, living in fear. He was abused by a male owner and frightened by children who threw balls at him. Because of that, he is still afraid of men, loud playground sounds, and the sight of bouncing toys. But despite all this, Ma-eum has the gentlest heart. For the past two years, he has been living in a patient and loving foster home. He has made slow, steady progress — on his terms — and is now ready for the next chapter of his life. 🧬 Personality Ma-eum is a quiet, thoughtful boy with a soft energy. He feels safest around gentle women with warm voices, and he truly thrives in calm, peaceful homes. He may keep his distance from men indoors, but sometimes shows more courage when outdoors. He isn’t the kind of dog who will run into your arms — but with time and patience, he’ll follow you anywhere. He enjoys peaceful walks, nosework games, gentle pets, and long naps by your side. He doesn't bark much, and he waits quietly when left alone after a short adjustment. 🏡 At Home ✅ House-trained (prefers peeing on vertical surfaces — his foster can provide wall-to-floor pads) ✅ Good with calm dogs (interested and social but may growl at overly excited dogs) ✅ Neutral to cats (no strong prey drive) ✅ Tolerates children (nervous around fast movements but never aggressive) ✅ Excellent in the car ✅ Loves brushing and gentle touch 🚫 Afraid of balls and squeaky toys — he prefers games with treats instead 💛 Ma-eum is looking for… A family who will let him set the pace. Someone who doesn’t expect instant cuddles but understands how meaningful it is when a shy dog chooses to stay close. Ideally, a female adopter or a quiet household with gentle energy. 📦 Foster home can provide pee pad setup 📍 Adoption includes interview & home check 📩 If Ma-eum’s story touched your heart, we’d love to tell you more. He’s been waiting a long time for someone who sees past the fear — and into his true, beautiful heart
