Meet Mako! Mako is a 1-year-old Border Collie mix with a heart full of love and energy to spare! She’s a playful, affectionate girl who’s known for her big hugs, endless kisses, and happy personality. Mako loves playing with her dog friends, chasing toys, and showing off the tricks she’s been learning. She’s a smart cookie who would thrive with a job or activity to keep her mind busy — agility, obedience work, or any challenge you can dream up! Eager to please and full of devotion, Mako just wants to make her people happy. She’s as sweet and loving as they come, ready to bring fun, cuddles, and loyalty to her forever home. *Adopters must live in Central Indiana, no more than 45 min from downtown Indy *Please visit website for how to adopt: https://sketchymuttsandunderdogs.org/adopt *Please note that we do not operate on a first come first served basis

Freeze is a young border collie mix around 2 years old and 35lbs. She is happy to coexist with other dogs and seems to be best suited for a laid back dog that’s larger than she is. She would also thrive in a home as a solo companion with her person. Freeze is potty trained, crate trained, and overall a well mannered girl. Shes shy with new people, but does warm up pretty easily once in a comfortable space. She enjoys walks and playing fetch with her person.Freeze is fully vetted and ready to find her new home!

Story
Hi, I'm Gator! I'm a fun-loving, playful guy with a big personality! I absolutely love people and enjoy being part of whatever is going on. Whether we're playing, going for a walk, or just hanging out together, I'm happiest when I'm spending time with my humans. I can be a little vocal at times. I like to let you know when I'm excited, happy, or ready for some fun. And if you have treats, we'll be best friends in no time because I'm very food-motivated! That means I'm eager to learn and will do just about anything for a tasty snack. If you're looking for a loyal, playful companion who's full of love, personality, and a little bit of charm, I might just be the perfect match for you. I can't wait to meet my new family!

Story
We got Bo last year in July when he was 9 weeks old for my wife who had cancer. We thought she was in a long-term survivor situation, but the cancer returned and took her quickly in December. Bo did not do very well with it. He's not destructive but does need lots of love and attention as well as lots of exercise. I am not home enough for him to live a full and joyful life. He needs a family. He's great with my 11 year old son and my 2 year old nephew. He's generally great with strangers that come over but there is one delivery man he does not like. I would love to find him a loving home and a family that needs him rather than taking him somewhere where there is a chance he'd be put down. He loves to love and be loved.

Story
We’ve had Wickett for the last 6 years. He has traveled many states with us and hiked many trails and has ran freely as a farm dog in between. We believe now at this stage of his life he would do best with an experienced family with no kids or kids that are older and can respect his space. Our son is in his toddler years and there is a lot of sporadic movements and food that puts him in difficult situations. He is friendly around our son and enjoys his pets when they are supervised. He is muzzle trained. Very sweet and loving dog. Wants to be with/near his people. Is very smart and food driven. Loves to chase squirrels/small animals and can jump 4ft fence. Meets new people best when he is outside in open space. Let him approach in his own time. Very protective of his space and area. He knows sit, stay, down, paw, touch. He has a dog brother for past 6 years and takes time being introduced to other dogs and animals.

Lisl is a 10 year old pure bred Border Collie. We have had her since she was one month old, and she’s been a lovely family dog. She’s sweet, cuddly, a little timid, playful, quiet, and happy. We have a lot of changes coming to our family and are reluctantly needing to find her a good home. She is house-trained, crate-trained and truly an all around great dog. No allergies, no medications, and very healthy. Please see more videos on the YouTube channel @danaisaac2844.

Story
Meet handsome Copper, a striking 5-year-old pup with a big heart and an even bigger zest for life! After the sad loss of his owner, Copper was surrendered to a shelter. He’s now safe in a Misty Eyes foster home while he waits for a loving forever family to call his own. Weighing 52 pounds, Copper is believed to be an Irish Setter / Border Collie mix — a combination that often brings together intelligence, athleticism, and enthusiasm. True to his heritage, Copper is friendly, outgoing, and full of energy. He gets along well with other dogs, especially those close to his size, and would thrive with an active family. He is somewhat anxious and becomes distressed with too much activity in the home. He would do best in a quiet home without a great many visitors and noise, but with owners able to provide the physical and mental stimulation he needs. If you’re looking for a loyal walking buddy, hiking companion, or adventure partner, Copper may be the perfect match for you. If you’re ready to give this wonderful boy the fresh start he deserves, please submit an adoption application online at: https://www.mistyeyes.org/adoptionapplication.
