Story
When the sun shine, we shine together, told you I`ll be here forever, said I`ll always be your friend...you should adopt Ella, Ella, eh, eh, eh. Whoops, didn`t see you standing there! I`m Ella, and I`m about to SHOWER you with soooo many kisses! I`m a spritely, border collie-esque girl who can be timid at first, but I warm up quickly and will slither into your lap in no time. As you might guess, I`m also quite intelligent, so much so that I can be a bit of an escape artist if left unattended, so leashed walks or a secure yard with supervised outside time would be most ideal for me. I`ve been very friendly with other dogs but would likely do best without kitties. Get to see this adorable face up close - ask to meet me!

Story
Scout is a two-year-old purebred border collie born on December 9, 2023. Unfortunately, due to my work slowing down, I have been unable to provide him with a new environment with adequate space for him to run around. The ideal owner will have fenced in land. Scout is well trained but not trained as a herding dog. Scout loves playing with other dogs, but one thing to note is that larger dogs - without proper introductions - can intimidate Scout. For example, he snipped at my girlfriends Doberman the first time they met, but after a short walk and throwing the ball around they were inseparable for the rest of the day. The only other thing worth noting is that Scout is fairly anxious and very emotionally receptive, for this reason Scout responds best to women - softer voices more specifically. He is not generally anxious throughout the day, however certain things can set him off such as physical contact with others like wrestling or play fighting as well as fighting on the TV.

Story
Naomi is an adorable herding-type girl whose intelligence, enthusiasm, and playful spirit are exactly what you’d expect from this active breed group. She recently joined staff for a lunch outing and showed just how fun she can be. Naomi loaded easily into the car and, after some excited wiggling at the start of the adventure, settled in nicely for the ride. At the café she walked politely, sat calmly while food was ordered, and relaxed in the sunshine once everyone was seated. Naomi truly shines when she gets to move—she loved zooming around on a long line, splashing in the water, and rolling in the grass. She’s highly treat-motivated and already knows cues like sit, speak, and paw, with down still being a work in progress. Like many herding dogs, she can get a little overstimulated during play and may jump up or grab at arms while vocalizing, but she responds well to redirection and is eager to learn.Now living in a foster home, Naomi is thriving and showing what a wonderful companion she can be. She rides well in the car, is house trained, and does well when left home alone. She enjoys playdates with a friend’s dog and gets along great with her canine buddy. While she hasn’t yet been around cats or children in the foster home, she has been a fantastic houseguest and continues to show her happy, affectionate personality. Naomi would do best in an active home that can give her the exercise, mental stimulation, and continued training that her smart herding brain craves. In return, she’ll reward her adopter with endless fun, loyalty, and the joy of sharing life with a truly special dog.

Story
If you’re looking for a dog who treats every stranger like a long-lost best friend, meet Romeo. At 2 years old, this boy is the definition of `happy-go-lucky.` With a permanent smile and a tongue ready to deliver a thousand kisses, he’s a one-dog welcoming committee! Romeo is an absolute pro in the car. He sits nicely, but his favorite hobby is sticking his head out the window to feel the breeze and take in all the sights. He’s got plenty of `zoomies` in the tank and loved running around the park until he’d explored every corner.

Story
I am a shy-to-start, energetic girl who loves to roughhouse with other playful puppy pals. I adore toys and fun chew treats. I love going for joy rides and am the perfect passenger princess. I do really well with kids. While it takes me a minute to warm up, I am worth the wait!
