**Meet Mitch!**Mitch is a 1-year-old, 50-pound Border Collie mix who is a big ball of smooshy love. Young, playful, and incredibly smart, Mitch is always ready for an adventure. As a Border Collie, he thrives on staying busy and can get bored without enough stimulation. He needs plenty of exercise, mental challenges, playtime, and just loving time with his humans.Mitch is potty trained and sleeps comfortably in his kennel at night. He gets along great with other dogs and people, although he can be a bit clumsy and might be a lot for small kids to handle because he just wants to play.Mitch loves toys, running outside, and playing fetch and catch. He's truly spectacular and ready to bring joy and excitement to his forever home.

Meet Micah! He’s a super affectionate and loving 5 month old border collie/heeler mix. He’s curious and playful, and he’s very submissive with other dogs. He weighs about 30 pounds right now, and will be a larger dog around 65 pounds full grown. He’s been living outside, but being taken care of by the sweet woman who’s been helping his litter since they were born. He’s very smart and as he’s warming up he’s showing that he’s going to be really outgoing.IMPORTANT: Please read all below, especially if you live outside of Texas, which is where our rescue is located.Apply to adopt on our website: https://www.charmingpetrescue.org/adoptAll of our animals are spayed/neutered, microchipped, and up to date on shots.ALL of our animals are located in Boerne, TX, but transport after adoption is available to other states for a $300 fee for dogs or an additional fee varying by location for cats.

**Meet Marvel**He’s a 1 year old, 35 pound Australian shepherd/Cattle dog mix.Marvel is a sweet, sensitive boy who’s had a tough transition. He lived with his first and only owner until she had to move in with her son, who wouldn’t allow Marvel to come along. Now, the rescue environment is a bit overwhelming for him.He’s a submissive and gentle soul who gets along well with other dogs, but he’s still nervous as he adjusts. Marvel would thrive in a calm, loving home where he can feel safe and start to relax. If you're looking for a loyal companion, Marvel is ready to steal your heart!IMPORTANT: Please read all below, especially if you live outside of Texas, which is where our rescue is located.Apply to adopt on our website: https://www.charmingpetrescue.org/adoptAll of our animals are spayed/neutered, microchipped, and up to date on shots.ALL of our animals are located in Boerne, TX, but transport after adoption is available to other states for a $300 fee for dogs or an additional fee varying by location for cats.

Story
Meet Kage, the ultimate good boy who's just so darn cute! This gentleman is a pro at house living, fully potty trained, and a master at walking on a leash and harness. He's a social butterfly, getting along famously with other dogs and loving those backyard playdates with his pals. Kage is a stunning mix of Lab and Border Collie, the perfect blend of intelligence and family-friendliness. He's just the right size, like a mini Lab or a slightly larger Border Collie. When you find two fantastic things that go together like peanut butter and jelly, you celebrate! Kage is that winning combo, and now you can celebrate by making him a cherished member of your family. His temperament is pure gold - sweet as honey with everyone he meets. Now, here's the scoop: Kage is a special needs pup, and he's looking for someone who can be with him about 90 percent of the time. Storms, rain, and loud noises send him into severe panic attacks, and he's been known to chew through walls when anxiety strikes. Crates aren't his jam because of past storm-related trauma. He's also dealing with seizures, so he's on medication for that. Kage would thrive in a local adoption, and he's best as a single dog with no cats or small animals around. He's a wonderful companion for older kids, and he loves nothing more than cuddles and long walks. He's got the whole house training thing down too. His foster mom adores him and has prepared him for his forever family as best she can. Now, the ball is in your court. Remember, when you adopt Kage, you're not just bringing home a good boy; you're giving him the loving, understanding home he deserves. Don't shop, adopt, because Kage's life depends on it! Local adoption fee is $200 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $400 (includes transport to your area - $50 Temporary Fuel Charge will be added)
