Story
This is Odin! He is a 9 year old Border Collie. Once he gets used to someone, he loves to be around them. Complete transparency, He is a reactive dog and will not get along with strangers. He has the following neurotic tendencies: Compulsive habits: Licking the floor or legs when stressed or feels he needs a "job", biting the closest thing to him (Furniture item, NOT people) Restlessness: consistent jumping at things in the air trying to "catch" them, and an inability to settle down and rest even after playing. Fixations: Staring intensely at walls or lights that are casted on walls/ items. Destruction: When stressed or in a "trace" he tends to bite or tear up furniture. He does not destroy any other items when not in this state. Vocalizing: Barking when scared or hears a delivery driver. He is such a handsome and sweet boy, he just needs someone that can give him more time and energy. He loves catching frisbees and cuddling close and he has the best "smile".

Story
I am EXCELLENT on walks, I have mastered "heel" and will walk beside my human the entire walk! My foster mom said that I put her dogs to shame with how well I do on my leash. I LOVE little dogs, I love playing tag with my foster dog brother (peekapoo) and sister (havanese). When I have encountered big dogs, I get scared and make my biggest bark possible. I don't trust big dogs yet, but hopefully I will find a friendly one that I can learn to trust. I am fully crate trained, I don't even cry when I go to bed, but I do struggle when asked to go to my crate (I need a little help with that). I am fully potty trained, and will let you know that I need to go out with a little squeak or bark. I love pedicures, my foster mom was shocked when she went to cut my nails and I just rolled over and relaxed while she did it. I am a total lover, physical touch is my love language, I will crawl onto your lap if you let me and love sitting beside my human watching the world go by. I absolutely love my walks, and my foster mom started running with me, I did 2 miles no problem yesterday on my leash! My foster mom said I would be an IDEAL running pup for someone. I am very smart and am eager to learn, I always listen and I thrive on positive reinforcement. I want to make my future parents very proud! I am very gentle with children, so far I have met and played with 3 year olds through 14 year olds. I am not skiddish, loud noises like the lawn mover, thunder and construction doesn't bother me. When I'm in the car, in my crate or home alone I calm right down if you play Calming Puppy Music on Spotify. ##2841946##

Story
Wanda is the perfect combo - the legs of a giraffe, ears of a fox, and fur highlights any hairdresser would be proud of.  She is a sweet, sweet soul who is still learning to trust and settle in. She is a little uncertain on walks but is already starting to be more curious and comfortable - we mostly Wanda around. We move slowly and give her time, and she has been braver each day.  Patience and love are all she needs to let her relax into being a puppy again. She has made large strides each and every day. She could spend all day outside, watching the squirrels and birds, sniffing flowers and rolling in the grass. Potty training is a work in progress but we have already seen improvements. Very food motivated and responsive to any redirecting her away from things. She doesn't seem to have a mean bone in her body.  Don't you Wanda bring her home?! ##2841948##

Story
Meet Jasper — This good looking Border Collie pup is around 7 months of age and weighs 45 pounds.   Handsome? Absolutely.Sweet? Without a doubt.Affectionate? Oh, you bet! Jasper is a striking black-and-white Border Collie with expressive eyes, a gorgeous coat and a personality that is impossible not to love. At just 7 months old, he's already proving that being a Border Collie isn't just about brains and beauty — it's also about having a BIG heart. Jasper loves spending his days playing with other dogs, so a playful canine companion would be a wonderful bonus in his new home. He's got the fun, bouncy energy you'd expect from a young Border Collie and would thrive with a family ready to give him plenty of playtime, exercise, attention and opportunities to keep his clever little brain busy. But Jasper's favorite activity might just be loving his people. This boy is an absolute hugger. And we're not talking about a little lean against your leg. Jasper will actually wrap himself around your legs for a full-on hug! Jasper is also doing great with his kennel manners. He keeps his kennel clean, although if Jasper were writing the rules, we're pretty sure “spend time in the kennel” would be struck from the handbook immediately. He'd much rather be out playing with his dog friends or hanging out with his people. Jasper's Ideal Home Jasper would love a family who: Wants an affectionate, people-loving companion Enjoys having a playful dog around Can provide plenty of exercise, play and mental stimulation Will continue his training as he grows Doesn't mind a dog who believes every human leg is an invitation for a hug Jasper is young, energetic and still has plenty of puppy growing to do, but underneath all that playful energy is a wonderfully affectionate, social and loving dog. He's handsome. He's playful. He's smart.  Interested in adopting? Please complete an adoption application at: Circle 2 Rescue Dog Adoption Application   Adoption Fee: $350, which includes:  Neuter  Age-appropriate vaccinations  Deworming  Microchip  ##2852417##

Story
All people inquiring about pets listed as Courtesy Listings on the EAPL website and/or EAPL posting adoption boards should contact the current pet owner/rescue/shelter for answers to any questions and for final approval and placement. Please do not contact EAPL  about courtesy listings. The pet owner/rescue/shelter and new owner shall make all arrangements on transferring the pet, including information on history, vaccines, etc.    Rocky: Sweet, loyal 10-year-old border collie mix in need of a new home. Rocky has lived in Boulder with his people for 10 years, since being adopted as a puppy. Sadly his parents have both gone into care and can no longer look after him. Rocky has up to date vaccinations, loves long walks and swims and is happy in the car. He gets separation anxiety and sometimes nips ankles due to his herding instinct. He gets along with neutered adult dogs but should not be loose around puppies or children. He is in need of an experienced dog owner who will help him lose 15 lbs and enjoy his final years. Rocky knows basic commands and walks well on a leash. Please contact chloekannan@gmail.com if you are interested in rehoming Rocky. October 5, 2026, 11:40 pm
