Story
Milo is a striking traditional black-and-white Border Collie with a refined elegance and a gentle spirit. While he may take a moment to warm up to new people, he soon reveals his affectionate nature and endearing, playful personality. As a devoted companion, Milo thrives on close connection, making him the ideal "Velcro dog" who finds true contentment by his person's side. He would do best in a home that has someone home (work from home), has a dog walker or can take him to daycare. Milo arrived at the shelter when his previous owner, facing significant health challenges, could no longer provide the care he deserved. Fortunately, his owner invested substantial time in his training, which is evident in his current foster environment. Milo demonstrates impressive obedience, including sit, down, paw, stay, come, and additional commands we are continuing to discover. He has prior experience with clicker training and agility work, and was even trained for off-leash reliability—though we have yet to test this in a controlled setting. These skills position him as an exceptional partner for active, engaged households. Milo exhibits exemplary house manners. He has had no accidents or marking incidents, and he efficiently completes his outdoor routines before promptly returning indoors. He interacts harmoniously with other dogs, showing respect and deference to his foster housemates. During cat introductions at the shelter, Milo displayed indifference, and in one instance, appeared mildly cautious toward the feline. Milo enjoys walks/runs and maintains good leash etiquette. He can become mildly enthusiastic upon spotting other dogs, an area we are addressing through ongoing positive reinforcement training. Travel poses no issue for Milo; he rides calmly and contentedly in the car, often appearing to relish these outings. Due to his innate herding instincts, we recommend a home without children under 10 years of age to ensure a smooth transition for all. We continue to learn more about Milo each day, so please check back for updates. If you have an approved application on file (valid for two years) or have recently submitted one for another dog, we invite you to contact tlb145@aim.com for additional details and next steps. ​​​​​​Come see Milo and his friends on our web page https://www.midwestbordercollierescue.org/alldogs ​Location: Northeast Ohio ​ Contact: tlb145@aim.com

Lia and Nico are the two best companions anyone could wish for. It would be wonderful if they were adopted together.

Story
Verona is a 9-month-old pup who is looking for a patient, understanding home where she can continue to grow in confidence. She’s a sweet girl who does best in a calm environment and would thrive with adopters willing to move at her pace. Verona does great with gentle, calm dogs and would especially benefit from having a confident, well-adjusted dog in the home to help show her the ropes. Because she’s still learning about the world, a home with older children (14+) would be the best fit for her. With time, kindness, and consistency, Verona has so much potential to blossom into a wonderful companion. She just needs the right family to help her feel safe and supported.

Lacy

Border Collie Beagle

Female, Senior
Cuyahoga Falls, OH
Size
(when grown) -
Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Lacey is a 10-year-old Border Collie/Beagle mix with the softest soul and the most devoted heart. She’s incredibly sweet, gentle, and happiest when she’s right by her people’s side—quietly following along, just wanting to be included. She definitely inherited the beagle nose, so fair warning: trash cans should stay secured But beyond that little quirk, Lacey is an easy, peaceful companion. She does fine with other dogs but doesn’t rely on them for companionship—people are her favorite, and that’s all she really needs. Lacey loves the outdoors, especially cooler or cold weather. She would be thrilled with daily walks, time outside with her humans, and simply being able to enjoy fresh air—something she hasn’t had much of in her life so far. Her previous world was very small, and while she was deeply loved, her owners became bedbound and could no longer meet her needs. Letting her go was an act of love, and now Lacey is ready for a new chapter. She has Cushing’s disease, diagnosed a few months ago, and would benefit from activity, weight loss, and consistent care. More than anything, she needs someone who will give her time, affection, and companionship. Lacey isn’t demanding. She doesn’t need chaos or excitement—just a kind person, a steady routine, and love. In return, she’ll give you loyalty, calm companionship, and a quiet presence that makes a house feel like home. If you’re looking for a gentle shadow, a walking buddy, and a dog who just wants to be with you, Lacey may be your perfect match  Adoption is $100 which includes his spay/neuter, age-appropriate vaccines, microchip and current monthly prevention. To fill out an application for this animal or a general application click HERE.All animals are up to date on age appropriate shots, microchipped and fixed.

Meet Kraut – The Pocket Rocket 🚀🐾 Looking for a dog with big energy in a compact package? That’s me—Kraut! I’m a cattle dog in travel-sized form, bursting with brains, drive, and a whole lot of personality. I’m not your average couch-companion (unless you’ve got a tennis ball in hand). My hobbies include outrunning expectations, herding anything that moves, and judging your slow reflexes. I thrive when I’ve got a job to do—whether that’s agility, fly ball, farm work, or just keeping you on your toes. Don’t let my size fool you. I’m fast, focused, and full of fire. My dream family is active, adventurous, and ready to keep up with my quick mind and quicker paws. Give me a task, and I’ll give you 110%—plus a lifetime of loyalty and laughs. If you’re ready for a spirited teammate, a pocket-sized athlete, and the best adventure buddy you’ll ever have, then what are we waiting for? Let’s go! 🐶💨
