Story
Koda is a 7.5 month old, very adorable, male Bordercollie/Aussiedoodle mix at about 50ish lbs! He is beigsurrendered due to health issues of his person. He is now with GRRAND and he needs a good grooming/brushing, but other than that, he's a typical active puppy.  He has just arrived so we are still learning about him, but our volunteer who hung out with his in the field says: "Koda may still be fairly young, but he has the best manners and he has the sweetest personality. Koda is a very handsome mix and loves to carry a ball around but will drop it when you are taking his picture or when he wants snuggles. Koda will be a great companion to humans and he has a reputation for getting along with other dogs. Koda will need regular grooming to maintain his beautiful coat and a family that will be able to give him the exercise and direction he needs as he is still a young puppy." He will need plenty of attention and affection and is just a great weight to be able to go all kinds of places with his new family.  Koda is house-trained and crate-trained and sleeps in his crate at night or left home alone during the day. We are still learning about Koda, so please check back, but if you would like to meet this guy, please fill out an app at GRRAND.org   Koda loved people and other dogs. If anything he gets overexcited so I’m mindful when walking. Lovesballs, fetch and playing in the water. He wants to be close and where you are. ##2831463##

Story
URGENT: SPECIAL MEDICAL FOSTER OR ADOPTIVE FAMILY NEEDED! Lucie Bee is a 2 year, 7 month old female Golden Retriever (about 68 lbs) and her BFF Buddy is a 3 year, 8 month old Border Collie/Akita mix (about 50lbs) and they are the kind of pair who just belong together! These two came to GRRAND after their family experienced a heartbreaking loss, and through all of the change in their world, they’ve held tightly to the one thing that has remained constant: each other. They are wonderfully bonded, deeply connected, and, as one person lovingly described them, “like peanut butter and jelly.” Buddy Bee is the black-and-white charmer of the pair — friendly, social, and full of love. He doesn’t know a stranger and seems to believe every person he meets is simply a friend he hasn’t said hello to yet. He’s the more outgoing half of this duo and brings a happy, easy warmth wherever he goes. Lucie Bee is Buddy’s beautiful golden sidekick. She’s a little softer and more sensitive at first, but once she settles in, she does just fine. If Buddy is the social butterfly, Lucie is the sweet soul who takes a minute to look around, make sure all is well, and then quietly let her lovely personality shine. She’s a good girl who seems to draw comfort from having Buddy close by... And Buddy is very happy to oblige! She is also able to clear a 4 FT high fence, so a privacy fenced yard or professionally installed invisible fence would be best to keep them contained. These two truly seem to balance each other in the best way — Buddy bringing the confidence, Lucie bringing the gentle heart, and both of them bringing a whole lot of sweetness to the table. They are curious, affectionate, fun and pretty calm dogs. They are an awesome pair. Lucie is also facing a medical hurdle right now. After arriving at GRRAND not wanting to bear weight on one of her back legs, she was evaluated by our vet and diagnosed with a torn CCL, which means she will need surgery. Because of that, GRRAND will be looking for a medical foster for Lucie while she recovers. Our hope, of course, is to find a foster willing and able to take both Buddy and Lucie together, because they are so very close. We also understand that fostering a dog recovering from orthopedic surgery while also taking on a bonded pair is a big ask. If needed, they may have to be temporarily separated during Lucie’s recovery, but only if absolutely necessary. Buddy Bee and Lucie Bee are looking for a soft place to land, a family who will appreciate the sweetness of a bonded pair, and a home where they can continue the next chapter of life together. They’ve already been through a great deal, but they still have so much love to give to a loving new family. If your heart has room for two very special best friends, Buddy Bee and Lucie Bee would love to meet you, so please fill out an app at GRRAND.org and we can make this meet and greet happen! ##2778287##

Story
Meet Moose Moose is a 5–6-year-old Border Collie mix with a bright mind, a playful spirit, and a heart full of love. This handsome boy embodies so many of the qualities people admire about Border Collies: intelligent, loyal, eager to learn, and always ready to be part of whatever his family is doing. If you're looking for a dog who wants to be your companion through every adventure, Moose is your guy. He loves being with his people and thrives on spending time with his family. Whether it's a hike through the woods, a long walk around the neighborhood, a game of fetch in the yard, or simply relaxing together after a busy day, Moose is happiest when he's included. Moose is great with dogs and children and has a friendly, social personality. He has lived with cats his entire life and has never had any issues. However, because he has only been around familiar cats, we recommend supervised introductions with any new feline friends. Moose enjoys being part of the action and loves having companionship, both human and canine. As a Border Collie mix, Moose is an active and intelligent dog who enjoys having both physical exercise and mental stimulation. He knows basic commands, learns quickly, and would thrive with a family that enjoys keeping him engaged. Whether it's exploring new trails, learning new tricks, participating in activities, or simply having plenty of opportunities to play, Moose is always ready for the next adventure. This well-mannered boy is crate trained, leash trained, and potty trained. He has a solid foundation of good manners and is accustomed to living as part of a family. Moose is a smart dog who enjoys structure, routine, and spending quality time with the people he loves. Moose cannot be placed in a home with chickens, rabbits, or other small livestock or poultry. His future family will need to ensure he is in an environment where these animals are not present. Moose is looking for a family that wants a loyal best friend, an adventure partner, and a devoted companion. He has so much love, personality, and enthusiasm to share and is ready to become a cherished member of a forever home. Moose is neutered, up to date on vaccinations, microchipped, and ready to find his forever family. Located in Mount Vernon, Kentucky

Story
Meet Cosmo!!! A stunning Pit Bull/Border Collie mix with a big heart and an even bigger brain! This handsome guy is sweet as can be and already knows sit, shake, lay down, stand, heel, and leave it. He's eager to keep learning and would love a family that enjoys teaching him new things. When he's not practicing his impressive manners, Cosmo is happiest lounging in the yard with one of his favorite toys, soaking up the sunshine. Just be warned when it's time to head back inside, you'll have to pay the belly roll tax first. A few tummy scratches are required, and Cosmo takes that rule very seriously! Cosmo would be happiest as the only dog in the home, where he can soak up all the love and attention for himself. In return, he'll be a loyal companion who's always ready for an adventure, a training session, or a relaxing afternoon by your side. If you're looking for a smart, affectionate best friend with plenty of personality, Cosmo might just be your perfect match.
