Story
Meet Callie – The Smart Girl with a Gentle Heart Callie is the kind of dog who forms deep connections with the people she loves. Beneath her thoughtful, sometimes cautious exterior is a sweet, affectionate companion who wants nothing more than to be close to her family. She may not be the dog who rushes up to greet every stranger, but once she trusts you, her loving personality shines brightly. This beautiful Border Collie mix combines intelligence, playfulness, and loyalty into one wonderful package. Whether she's hiking a trail, working on a puzzle toy, playing with her favorite dog friends, or cuddling on the couch after a busy day, Callie is happiest when she has both mental and physical outlets along with people she can trust. Callie Loves: -Walks and hiking adventures -Car rides -Running and exploring -Fetch -Tug toys -Sniffing new smells -Playing with other dogs -Playing with toys -Chewing bones -Training sessions -Treat puzzles and enrichment games -Watching TV with her family -Cuddling -Zoomies -Quiet relaxation Callie's Favorite Thing: Her people. Whether you've been gone for an hour or all day, Callie greets her family with the same joyful excitement every time they come home. Her love is genuine, enthusiastic, and impossible not to appreciate. A Loving Dog Who Needs Understanding: Callie is a smart and sensitive dog who thrives with patience and consistency. She can be shy when meeting new people and often prefers slow introductions. While she is not aggressive, she can become overwhelmed in busy environments and tends to do best in quieter settings where she has space to process new experiences. Her foster reports that she is selective about who she chooses to interact with and often ignores strangers altogether. Once she feels comfortable, however, she becomes affectionate, playful, and eager to engage. Callie also has some leash reactivity toward people and dogs. Her triggers can be inconsistent, but she has shown that she tends to warm up more quickly when introductions happen outside of the home. With continued training, management, and patience, she continues to make progress. A Few Things to Know: -Approximately 3 years old -House trained -Crate trained -Loves other dogs -Cat compatibility is unknown -Does well with children but is generally not interested in playing with them -Smart and eager to learn -May pull on leash -Can become overstimulated in busy environments -Benefits from slow introductions to people and other dogs. -May have some separation anxiety tendencies -Thrives with routine and structure Great Activities for Callie: -Quiet neighborhood walks -Hiking adventures -Car rides -Enrichment games -Training sessions -Low-stimulation outings -One-on-one bonding time -Relaxing evenings at home Best Match: -Patient adopters -Active individuals or couples -Experienced or dog-savvy owners -Homes with other friendly dogs -People who enjoy training and enrichment -Families willing to continue building her confidence Three Words That Describe Callie Best: ❤️ Loving ❤️ Attentive ❤️ Happy-Go-Lucky Foster Location: Eau Claire, WI The foster is willing to meet approved adopters within approximately one hour of Eau Claire, pending schedule availability.

Story
Meet Oreo - a sweet young puppy who has been let down too many times in her short life. Oreo came to us from a partner impound when she was seized from her owners. She is thought to be between 4-5 months old and a border collie/husky mix. Unlike most puppies her age, Oreo has known cruelty and has had to overcome it.It takes her a little bit to trust people and warm up - but this is understandable. She is getting braver and braver everyday. Our wonderful trainer has been working with her since her arrival to help her adjust, desensitize, and learn that not all people are bad. Oreo would thrive with a family that has time to show her the good parts of the world and work on basic puppy training. Oreo is truly a diamond in the rough and she is really starting to shine! If you think she could be a good match for you, apply online today!Adoption fee is $350 + $30 microchip fee + tax

Story
First, his looks catch your eye. Then you learn about his personality and you are hooked! Blaze is a 54#, 5-year-old Border Collie with a sunny personality and a zest for life that's as bright as a perfect summer day. He thinks every day should include a game of fetch or frisbee and plenty of time spent with his favorite people. Happy-go-lucky, affectionate, and adventurous, Blaze loves being part of the action, whether that's a morning walk, a trip to the park, or a backyard barbecue. His energy level is a wonderful balance: he's always ready for fun and activity, and he's equally happy to relax and enjoy downtime with his family afterward. Blaze would thrive with an active, herding breed-experienced family that appreciates both his intelligence and enthusiasm. He walks beautifully on leash without pulling and is well-socialized in the world. He's crate trained and keeps four on the floor. He knows a few basic obedience commands and wants to learn more. With his smarts, a little time and some good treats, and we bet he can learn anything! A fenced yard would be ideal for Blaze so he has room to stretch his legs and enjoy his favorite games. He can happily live as an only dog or with a canine companion. He is a herding dog, which includes nipping at ankles if given the opportunity. Families with older kids are the best fit no littles, please. He likes to check cats out, but is not aggressive. He could live with dog-savvy felines. Blaze will be an even happier boy when he loses roughly 7-8 lbs. If you're looking for a loyal adventure buddy who will happily join you for all of life's summer fun, and then curl up nearby when the day is done, Blaze may be your perfect match! APPLY to adopt him at hoabcr.org/how-to-adopt Blaze is being fostered in Clear Lake, MN. His adoption fee is $450 + MN sales tax. He is neutered, microchipped and up to date on age-appropriate vaccines. 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 Cupcake, affectionately known as Cece. Simply stated, she is a delight! This 36#, 12.5-year-old Sheltie and Border Collie mix who proves that age is just a number. She has plenty of pep in her step, a lovely prance when she is happiest, and a zest for life that charms everyone she meets. Describing Cupcake is easy. She's friendly, affectionate, confident, curious, observant and just a bit spicy. She wants to be close to her people, joining in on whatever they are doing. Whether its accompanying them on a leisurely stroll, supervising backyard activities, or simply lounging nearby for ear and butt scratches, Cece enjoys being part of the family. Her ideal day includes a couple of walks where she can stop and investigate interesting smells along the way. Her ears perk up, her tail rises proudly, and off she goes, ready to explore the world one sniff at a time. A few tosses of a Frisbee or ball, rolling in the grass, watching birds from the deck, and savoring peanut butter frozen treats are also high on her list of favorites. Cupcake would thrive in a home that appreciates a medium-energy companion. She doesn't need a fenced yard if she can spend time exploring safely on a leash. She's fine with another calm, low-key dog or as the canine center of attention. She does well with cats and even naps alongside her feline friends. Because quick movements can startle her, Cupcake would do best in a home without young children. She prefers to dine alone without concern for another dog trying to get at her food dish. She is completing a 30-day course of doxycycline for Lyme disease as a precaution: she is not symptomatic. She is a healthy, happy girl with lots of love to give. If you're looking for a loyal companion for walks, adventures, and cozy evenings, Cece may be the perfect match. APPLY to adopt her at hoabcr.org/how-to-adopt Cupcake is being fostered in Lindstrom, MN. Cupcake's adoption fee is $250 + MN sales tax. She is spayed and up to date on age-appropriate vaccines. 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.
