Story
I’m reaching out with a heartfelt request to help me find the right placement for a very special dog named Fred. I adopted Fred six weeks ago, and although we have formed a deep bond, it’s become clear that he needs a level of behavioral support and consistency that I cannot provide in my current living situation. Fred is a tricolor Border Collie mix, approximately 3–4 years old and around 50 pounds. He is sweet, sensitive, intelligent, and deeply affectionate once he feels safe. He plays wonderfully with other dogs and settles beautifully in a calm home environment. He is good on a leash and settles well at home. Fred does have some fear-based reactivity toward unfamiliar people and separation anxiety. However, it’s important to emphasize that Fred has shown meaningful improvements in these areas with the right training and handling. His former owner did foundational work with him, and since coming to me, he has continued to progress. He is truly a love and wants to please.

Story
Dixie is a 1 year old female Border Collie who weighs around 28 lbs. Dixie is a sweet and loving pup but will need an adopter who has experience with her breed and can keep her active and busy. She gets very hyper when in her kennel but will calm down once she’s out. Dixie loves everyone she meets and gets along well with some dogs. She gets very attached to her humans and would do best in a home that can meet her needs given her breed. Dixie is spayed, fully vetted, heartworm negative and microchipped. Our pups come with one month of free pet insurance when you adopt. If you’re interested in adopting, please fill out an application on our website at https://packleadersrescue.com/adoption-application/
