Story
Name: Carmella Breed: Border Collie Sex: Female Age: 2 year old Weight: 45 lbs. Carmella has some behavioral needs, and she's available for adoption or through a foster-to-adopt arrangement. Good with dogs? Carmella will need a slow introduction to other dogs Good with cats? No Good with kids? Not tested but based on her behavior with meeting new people we would recommend she go to a kid free home. Energy level: High. Carmella is a driven Border Collie with a strong need for mental stimulation. She would thrive in a home where she has a job to do—bonus points if her adopter is interested in helping her learn how to herd! With her high energy and working-dog instincts, Carmella would love nothing more than a purpose-filled life where she can stay active and engaged. Animal Characteristics: Carmella is a beautiful, sensitive soul searching for someone special to help her shine. This shy girl hasn’t had the easiest start, and she’s still learning to trust the world around her. When meeting new people, Carmella can be fearful— but with patience, structure, and love, she begins to open up. Her ideal home will be with an experienced, compassionate adopter committed to continuing her training and providing slow, gentle introductions to new people and situations. Carmella isn’t the kind of dog who will greet you with tail wags and kisses on day one — but if you give her time and understanding, you’ll earn the love of a truly loyal companion. Please learn more about the adoption process and fill out an application at www.pawsco.org/adopt/adoption-process. I look forward to meeting you!

HOMEOWNERSHIP REQUIRED! Say hello to the one and only Minerva! This lively 1.5-year-old Border Collie mix is all set for the grand adventures of the good life. Minerva has made friends with other dogs and loves playing and romping around the yard. She loves playing tug and chewing on bones and soft toys. Minerva sleeps through the night in her crate, although she would be more than happy to cuddle in bed with you all night long. When given the chance, she has made a great sleepy buddy. Car rides are her jam and she makes a terrific passenger. If she had her way, she would go on all the car rides! Minerva likes a nice quiet house as she’s more on the shy side. She loves to hang out near you during the day while you work from home or keep you company while you sit and relax. A dog friend in the house makes her braver and she loves a four-legged wrestling partner. But she could be happy just being around her special person as well. She’s always ready for a walk and does well on a leash. She is very interested in tracking field mice and lizards during walks and her special skill is to jump in the air like a fox to pounce on a field mouse. Minerva knows sit, lay, paw and to wait to be released for her food. She is treat motivated and ready to learn new skills. As Minerva's trust in her foster family deepens, so does her affectionate side, overflowing with attention and love. She needs a little time to develop this trust and then she will reward you deeply. Minerva is calm, well behaved, and house trained. Equipped with up-to-date vaccinations, spayed, and microchipped, Minerva is ready to leap into your heart. Seal the deal by submitting your application today and prepare to welcome the newest member of your family!

HOMEOWNERSHIP REQURED! Hi there! My name is Higgins, and I'm all about giving kisses and tail wags! I’ve met a lot of people, but I’m ready to find my best bud. Small yet mighty, I guarantee we’ll have a ball together! I sleep quietly in my crate, and I just know you're going to think I’m great. I’m your guy, and when you meet me, you’ll see why! I’m relatively low energy for a pup, except for my occasional zoomies. I love toys and snuggles. I’m completely crate trained and will let you know I need to go potty by standing by the door. I'm a quick learner and one of the smartest puppies around. I've even met a cat and did great! I’m a 4-month-old Border Collie mix and up to date on age-appropriate vaccinations, neutered, and microchipped. I'd love to meet you and show off my tail wags!

This beauty is Layla! She is an approximately 1-year-old, 33-pound stunner with the kind of looks that garner compliments from strangers and passersby. Her gorgeous tri-colored coat and striking blue eye hint at some Australian Shepherd in her mix — but Layla is even better than a purebred. She’s a rez dog, made up of many breeds, which often means healthier, sturdier, and wonderfully well-balanced genetics.  Layla came to us from the Navajo Nation, where she lived alongside many different dogs. She is friendly and social with other dogs and understands how to coexist peacefully in a pack. Because her world has been a bit limited so far, Layla can be shy in new situations, but don’t mistake that for a lack of love. She has been well cared for and shows it through her sweet, gentle, and devoted nature. Once she feels safe, her affection quietly shines through. She’ll benefit from a patient, encouraging home willing to help her: Build confidence in new environments Continue learning and refining her leash skills ‍ Discover all the good things life has to offer Layla is the kind of dog who bonds deeply with her people and blossoms with kindness and consistency. If you’re looking for a loyal companion with beauty, heart, and so much potential, Layla may be the one you’ve been waiting for   Adopt Layla and give this special girl the chance to fully shine.
