With springs for legs, expressive sonar ears, and his petite size, Larry is a top contender for king of your heart. This teenaged Border Collie mix is ready for fun at all times! Larry was described as a cuddlebug in his previous home. Due to his breed and age, he may need more intensive exercise - both mentally and physically. Larry will only be rehomed to a family without children or with kids at least 10 years of age and to a feline free household. Primary Color: Tri Color Weight: 35.4 Age: 0yrs 9mths 1wks

Story
I adopted Maisie from the Boulder Humane Society in November, 2021. She was 3-4 months old and had been picked up in New Mexico. She was on medication for anxiety and I was told she should be homed with another older dog and kept away from children. I live in a condo with a small deck area and I am very active outdoors so I thought that would be helpful to her anxiety. She exhibited aggressive behavior towards kids, cyclists and runners along trails so I took for to High Drive Training and we did the full training and advanced training and I was trained in how to use and ecollar. We also did Grumpy Growler Training through the Boulder Humane Society. She has gotten aggressive towards other dogs while she is on leash but off leash she is fine. She is afraid of thunderstorms and fireworks. When she is near children and they make sudden moves she does get aggressive. I am moving to be near my grand children so I need to rehome her to someone that has a yard and another dog hopefully.

Story
Meet Halsey! Halsey is one of those special dogs who doesn't need to be the center of attention. At around 1 year old, this gorgeous Border Collie mix is sweet, gentle, intelligent and wonderfully kind. We’ve learned a little more about Halsey since her original profile, and we want to make sure we tell you what we have learned so we can find her the perfect home. Halsey is a shy girl who prefers a quiet, peaceful life. Loud noises, chaos and lots of frenzied activity can make her nervous, so she would do best in an adult home without young children. She needs patient people who will give her time to settle in, build her confidence and learn that she is finally safe. Once she feels comfortable, Halsey is a sweet and loving companion who enjoys being near her people. She doesn't need a busy household or a constant stream of excitement. A peaceful home, a nice walk, some quiet time and a person who understands her gentle nature? That sounds pretty perfect to Halsey. And she has some wonderful qualities already! House trained Walks nicely on a leash Sleeps quietly in her crate Good with other dogs Sweet and well-mannered Halsey has the brains and athleticism Border Collies are famous for, but she isn't looking for a nonstop adventure. She'd be happiest with someone who enjoys a calmer lifestyle and understands that shy dogs sometimes need a little extra time and patience before they let their personalities shine. She may not be the dog who bounds into a room demanding everyone's attention—and that's okay. She's the girl who quietly sits beside you, slowly learns to trust you, and eventually realizes that this is home. And when a shy dog gives you her heart, it's pretty darn special. Ready to meet Halsey? Please complete an application at Circle 2 Rescue's dog adoption application Adoption fee: $250, which includes spay/neuter, vaccinations, deworming and a microchip. ##2807905##

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. August 13, 2026, 4:54 pm

Story
This puppy is part of a litter that was dropped off at only a few days old at a local municipal shelter. There was an emergency plea put out and some of our wonderful foster parents stepped up to the plate and hand fed these puppies until they were eating on their own. A local donor was curious to the breed and they came back with boxer and border collie. Some of the puppies show the coat of a border collie, while others have the more smooth coat of a boxer. They have been in homes with kids and other dogs, and have had a VERY thorough introduction to life as a pet (including stairs, vacuum cleaners, etc.) Avon has a soft, feathered coat like a border collie. She is smart, playful, and sassy. She enjoys human company but doesn't need guidance 24/7. Avon has an outgoing personality and often is the leader of her littermates (or tries to get them to do her bidding). She would do well in a home with anyone that will keep her moving and thinking and actively engaging with her people, and would thrive with other pets and children. She would love to be a hiking buddy or other exploring partner. Avon has been spayed, is vaccinated for age appropriate vaccines, has been dewormed and given a flea/tick preventative, and is microchipped with registration. She uses puppy pads and is working toward full housetraining with the use of a kennel. Avon would love to join a forever family, and this pup has been really well socialized and has the best kind of foundation to make someone a best four legged friend. Avon is $450 to adopt.
