Story
MEET MILLIE!Millie is a special little girl who is just waiting for the right person to see how much love and potential she has to give.This 1-year-old spayed Border Collie is incredibly smart, playful, and eager to learn. She already knows an impressive list of tricks, including “sit,” “down,” “paw,” “spin,” and “up up,” where she sits up and waves. She absolutely loves chasing balls, playing with stuffies and rope toys, and showing off what she knows.Millie may take a little time to warm up, but once she feels safe and comfortable, you get to see the sweet girl underneath the uncertainty. She enjoys being around people, accepts affection while she plays, and will even happily trade her favorite toy for a tasty treat.New places and unfamiliar people can be overwhelming for Millie, so she is looking for someone who understands that trust takes time. She needs a patient, experienced person who will let her settle in at her own pace and show her that the world can be a safe and wonderful place.For Millie, we are looking for a pet-free home where she can be the center of attention and have the time, patience, and guidance she deserves. A calm environment, predictable routine, and plenty of opportunities to play, learn, and build confidence will help her truly flourish.Millie isn`t looking for a perfect home. She`s looking for her person — someone willing to be patient with her, celebrate her little victories, and give her the chance to become the confident, loving companion we know she can be.Once Millie trusts you, you`ll discover just how bright, funny, affectionate, and special she really is.Current weight 50 lbs.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.All of the animals posted on our site have been temperament tested. While not all are in the immediate area, once we have processed and approved your application, we will move the dog to our adoptive area for you to meet, greet and hopefully adopt. Sometimes we will have more than one application on a dog. That does not mean it automatically goes to another family but you should be aware of the fact that until you are approved and set up for the meet/greet.. the dog could get adopted by another applicant.Will and his sister were rescued as strays from an area where people don’t always take great care of their pets. When they first came into rescue, both of them were pretty shy and got stressed out easily by new places, car rides, or being away from their people. Once Will bonds with you, he turns into a total Velcro dog—he wants to be right by your side and will follow you from room to room. His separation anxiety has gotten a lot better, but he’d do best in a home where someone’s around most of the day. As long as he gets enough exercise and plenty of love every day, he’s chill—no excessive barking, no chewing up furniture. He’s never shown any aggression at all. Will’s an active boy who loves his daily walks. He’d be happiest in a home with a securely fenced yard so he can run around and play. One of his favorite things is zooming around the yard with a ball in his mouth, looking super happy. He really likes other dogs, though super dominant ones can make him a little nervous at first. With time and good experiences, he’s getting more confident around them. In his foster home, he’s living totally peacefully with a cat. Right now, RORR is working with a pro dog trainer to help Will build confidence when he’s in new situations. He’s super smart and picks things up fast—he’s already nailed house training, crate training, and basic commands. He can still feel a bit anxious around new people, dogs, or places, but he’s making steady progress. With patient handling and positive experiences, he just keeps getting braver. Will would thrive with someone who’s had experience with his breed and has the patience to keep helping him gain confidence by slowly introducing new things. Sticking with a professional trainer would keep him moving forward. For the right person, this smart, gentle boy will be the most loyal, loving shadow you could ask for.     If you are interested in Will, please fill out an application at: https://reachoutrescue.rescuegroups.org/forms/form?formid=4588    Or contact: rorrcanine@gmail.com   *** Click here to sponsor this dog! ***Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.August 18, 2026, 6:06 pm

Pit Bull Terrier Border Collie

Female, 1 yr 6 mos
Westminster, MD

Story
Dream is one of the best dogs you will meet (her foster mom may be biased, but it is still true!) She is a fetching mix of Pit Bull Terrier, Great Pyrenees, Staffordshire Terrier, Australian Cattle Dog, and Border Collie (her foster mom also got her a DNA test). Her birthday is estimated to be around March 2025 and she currently weighs 53 pounds. Dream went through some tough stuff in her early life, and was found by her foster mom in the cold, underweight, injured, and very scared. But over the past 6 months, she has blossomed into the puppy she was meant to be! While occasionally being a rascal and thinking your shoes are toys she can throw to herself, she is also a certified lover girl. She is timid with new people, but warms up quickly and then wants to be your snuggle bug and believes she is a 10 pound lap dog (her foster brother is a chihuahua). Dream and her foster mama are working on walking on leash as she can still be reactive to dogs and humans, but she has improved immensely and will continue to do so with consistent training and loving guidance. Her foster mama has also taken her camping, which she loved and always listened when called if she was off leash. Dream also believes she is part fish and enjoys playing in the water. She goes to her local dog park regularly and while slowly making friends with the other humans, she LOVES new dog friends. Dream has also learned that her foster siblings (the cats) do not like to be chased, so she mostly respects their boundaries and leaves them alone. She also has two rat siblings who love having her as their personal playground. She loves butt scratches, playing chase, and giving kisses. She does not like yelling, baths, and being ignored. Dream knows how to sit, do "middle" (go between your legs and sit), and lay down. She is working and improving on heel, stay, and "boundaries" for when she needs to give another dog space. Her recall is great using both her name, and a whistle taught to her by her foster mama, and she is working on learning the directions of "right" and "left" for walks both on and off leash. Dream has never been aggressive with her foster mama. She was initially food aggressive with her dog brother, Garth, but now they frequently share a food bowl and sort of mothers him. Dream needs some patience and extra love to feel safe, but once she does, you will be her entire world.

Story
Meadow’s story is pretty special. When she came to us, we knew this beautiful Border Collie mix was pregnant, and just two weeks later, she welcomed 11 puppies into the world. She turned out to be an absolutely wonderful mother, raising her babies with love and care until they were ready to find families of their own. Now it’s finally Meadow’s turn to find the loving home she deserves.Meadow is a medium-sized girl with a sweet personality and a whole lot of love to give. She can be a little unsure when meeting new people, so she would appreciate a family willing to give her some time to warm up. Once she knows you, though, you’ll discover that Meadow has a very affectionate side - she loves to jump up and give hugs! Belly rubs and a good brushing are also high on her list of favorite things.Meadow enjoys being with her people, and we think she would be happiest in a home where someone is around most of the time. She is very good about doing her business outside and is ready to settle into a home where she can finally be someone’s beloved companion instead of someone’s mom.We believe Meadow would be fine living with another dog, but she is not looking for a canine party animal! She would do best with an older, calm dog who will respect her space and enjoy a peaceful life together. Because Meadow also prefers a calmer environment, we believe she would do best with children 12 and older. The energy and activity of younger children may be more than she would appreciate.After giving so much of herself to her puppies, Meadow is ready for a little time to be spoiled. She has been a wonderful mom, and now she deserves to be someone’s baby. Could you be the family who shows this sweet girl how wonderful it is to be loved?
