Story

I’m Lark, a thoughtful, sweet 17# Border Collie girl born in mid-December 2025. I’m looking for a family that understands the best relationships are built on trust, patience, and love. My personality shines brighter every day, and I am truly a special girl. At first, I'm a little shy - the big world is new to me! At my core, I am a happy, playful, affectionate pup who absolutely adores my people. I love chew toys, wrestling with my foster canine sister, zooming around at the park, and soaking up praise and love from the humans I trust most. I’m a sensitive soul, true to my breed. My life's goal is a deep connection with my family – you can see it in my eyes! I will be completely devoted to my very own special people. Because I’m still learning about everything, I want to find a patient home that will help me build confidence at my own pace. Positive, low-key socialization is very important. Loud noises, cars rushing by, and pressure can feel overwhelming. Obedience classes are a must - I learn quickly and love it! I’m learning to walk on leash, getting on a potty schedule, and do well in my crate after some exercise and mental stimulation. I sleep quietly in my crate at night. Because I'm still very young, I need potty breaks every few hours. My ideal family has experience with Border Collies, or maybe other higher-energy, smart dogs. They will enjoy keeping my mind and body active as much as I do. A confident canine sibling would be a huge bonus because another friendly pup helps me feel brave and secure. Teen kids that won't overwhelm me could be a good fit. Dog-savvy cats are probably okay too if they won’t run, because I might chase them for fun! My foster mom says: It's easy to tell when Lark trusts you: she looks to you for guidance and support. Once that connection is built, your heart will belong to her forever. The very lucky family that adopts Lark will find they have their a once-in-a-lifetime dog. If you can see my loyal heart waiting to bloom into your best best friend, we should meet! APPLY to adopt me at hoabcr.org/how-to-adopt Lark is being fostered in Eagan, MN. Lark's adoption fee is $550 + MN sales tax. She is up to date on age-appropriate vaccines. She will be spayed and microchipped when she reaches 6 months of age. The cost of this procedure is included in her adoption fee. Upon adoption, all of our dogs go to their new homes with a collar and harness, leash, starter food, blanket, favorite toys & treats. They are current on flea/tick and heartworm prevention. As a foster-based rescue, we do not have a central facility to visit. Meet and greets with specific dogs are arranged once your adoption application (not an inquiry through Petfinder) has been received, processed, and approved. We are located in Minnesota and adopt to an area 400 miles from Minneapolis/St. Paul.

Story

Meet Spark, a mid‑December 2025 baby with long legs, a soft heart, and a whole lot of devotion packed into his 16 pounds. This Border Collie mix is the perfect blend of silly and snuggly. He trots around with puppy confidence, playing with toys and enjoying life. When it’s time for a break, he wants to be near his people, chilling out together. Spark’s favorite thing in life is people. Dogs are fun, toys are good, but his person is everything. He plays well with the other dogs in his foster home, but he consistently chooses human companionship over canine company. He’ll be happiest with a family that enjoys a dog-friendly active lifestyle and carries a calm, easygoing energy. Think walks, exploring new places, and then relaxing together afterward. Daily exercise will keep him happy. He’s curious about the world and has already experienced car rides, new environments, suburban sights and sounds, and meeting new dogs. He’s comfortable around cats, giving them a polite sniff before moving on. Best in a home with kids roughly 10 and over. Spark is working hard on house training and does best with a predictable schedule. He needs frequent breaks at this age. Crating isn’t his favorite, but he settles best when he can see or hear his person nearby. On leash, he’s still figuring things out, primarily by following the lead of older, more experienced dogs. Spark will do well with a canine sibling and can be an only dog. Families with herding‑breed experience is preferred to help guide his bright, sensitive mind. He’ll also need support learning to be comfortable on his own, because his instinct is to stay close and be with his people. Obedience classes are required to ensure he has a solid start to a long life of going with you everywhere: he will no doubt be your best friend. If you’re looking for a devoted, leggy little shadow who will adore you endlessly, Spark is ready to light up your life.

Story

Meet Jack, a young hearted 7-year-old, 45# Border Collie with the perfect blend of adventure buddy and cuddle companion wrapped in a lovable, fluffy package. He is a mature guy who has figured out the balance between having fun and time to relax. His foster family describes him as responsible, charismatic, loving, and endlessly positive: the kind of dog who wants to make his people smile. He’s a doof! Jack lives to be outside. The woods are his happy place, whether he’s romping with canine friends, stretching his legs on a run, or keeping an eye on squirrels to ensure they stay in their trees. If you love hiking, jogging or exploring trails, Jack will happily be your loyal sidekick. He’s also fantastic in the car and thinks road trips are one of life’s greatest joys. Despite his love for activity, Jack is not a high-maintenance, nonstop-energy dog. He’s solidly medium energy and settles beautifully after exercise. In the evenings, his favorite place is curled up beside - or preferably on - his humans. He is a devoted lap dog and cuddle expert. Jack is wonderfully experienced in the world. He has lived with children, gets along great with other dogs, and even shares his home with three cats. He walks nicely on a gentle leader and can be trusted loose in the house. He is well-behaved, and he doesn’t chase cars, lunge at people, or react to animals. All he wants is engagement with his special person or family. The ideal home for Jack has Border Collie experience and understands smart dogs. They are fully engaged with their pups and will provide physical and mental activities to keep him happy. If you’re an outdoor enthusiast and love smart dogs who are more person than they are canine, Jack is your guy!

Story

Hi, my name is Diamond and I am from Georgia! This little girl is really a Diamond in the rough. She has had a rough start in life and wants desperately to find a home that will help her transition from living in a shelter to living the good life. Diamond is a happy girl that loves with all of her 43 pounds. This little Georgia peach loves to follow me around the house. She wants to see what I am doing. She does great in a crate when I leave the house and doesn’t seem to care. Diamond is building up her confidence every day. Toys and treats do not appear to be a big priority for her. She just likes to be close to me whether I am sitting on the couch or working outside. She gets along with other dogs. Not sure about cats or kids but she seems to be a very passive little girl. With patience and love this little Diamond will shine and be a gem for your family. From Diamond: Hi I am from Georgia and so far I like it here in Minnesota. I like short walks and hanging out with my foster mom. I know how to play fetch ( for a little while) and like to check out the back yard. I would really like a family I could call my own. I have a lot of love to give.
