Story
Meet Peyton, a sweet male Border Collie who adores affection from familiar humans. Despite his lack of confidence, Peyton will crawl over to spend time with a loving human, eagerly accepting treats from their hands and offering kisses in return. His shy little wag and curious nature shine through, and bravely, he makes great eye contact. Peyton prefers to observe the world from the back of his kennel, but will eagerly come forward for treats or to say hello. He enjoys laying down and rolling to the side for scratches, displaying his trust in those he feels comfortable with. Peyton is still learning to trust that humans are kind and gentle, but he undoubtedly deserves a loving home and a cozy couch life. He will need a patient adopter who will allow him to gain trust at his own pace. Peyton is empowered by the presence of other confident dogs, and does best with female dogs. He is still learning to walk on leash, and does best when walking with another dog. Because of this, he will need to go to a home with a fenced yard until he is more proficient at leash walking. Having a confident canine companion will allow Peyton to gain more confidence and explore all the world has to offer, though it is not required. Peyton eagerly awaits his chance for adoption at the National Mill Dog Rescue.- - - - -Prior to being rescued, many of our dogs have experienced minimal socialization. As a result, there is often an adjustment period when learning about life as a family pet. We typically do not adopt to homes with young children. Homes with older children will be considered on an individual basis. Common skills such as house training and leash walking will often take a little extra time. Patience, understanding and a gentle hand are a must. The great news is, most of these dogs come around rather quickly and being a part of their rehabilitation is an extremely rewarding experience.
