Story
Lucy is a 2 year old Border Collie. She is very loving! She loves to cuddle. She acts a lot like a cat because of the places she likes to lay! We have had her since she was 4 months old but has recently become very jealous of our older dog and a new baby in the house. She has no issue with our cat and gets along well with her. She loves stuffed animals and treats. She has been potty trained for more than 19 months. We have had no potty training issues at all. I would recommend her in a house with older kids and no other dogs. If you have questions please reach out.

Story
🐾 Meet Evvy (short for Everett)Breed: Border Collie / Labrador MixAge: 8 years oldPersonality: Loyal, affectionate, and your personal shadowHi there, I’m Evvy—a 8-year-old Border Collie/Lab mix with a heart full of love and a nose that’s just a bit sensitive. Yep, I’ve got seasonal allergies, just like the humans do—but my previous owner made sure I had all the right meds and vet care. I’ll need someone who’s willing to keep that going so I can stay happy and healthy.I came to the shelter recently because my person’s work schedule got too full, and they couldn’t give me the time and attention I deserve. It was a hard goodbye, but I’m ready for a new beginning—and hopefully my forever home.I adore kids of all ages—they’re my kind of people! I’ve never been around cats, so I’m not sure how I’d do with them… and honestly, who knows—I might be allergic to them too!I’m not crazy about other dogs—I’ll admit, I get a little jealous. I mean, have you ever seen a dog roll in grass without sneezing? Must be nice! But seriously, I’d prefer to be your one and only, and I promise I’ll make that so worth it.I walk beautifully on leash, love lounging in the yard, and am happiest cuddled up beside my person. I’m past the puppy chaos and into the chill, soulful stage of life—and honestly, it’s the best phase.If you're looking for a sweet, silly, snuggly sidekick who’s low-key just like you, I might be your perfect match. 💛

Alder

Border Collie

Male, Young

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Story
Alder is an extremely sweet, quiet, shy boy. He is the dog version of an introvert. He is gentle and sticks to himself and is great with other dogs of all sizes and with cats. He doesn't engage much with them thought as he prefers to do his own thing. He has to be the most low maintenance and chill dog I've ever had in the rescue out of hundreds of dogs. He is hesitant with people he doesn't know but never aggressive. Not an ounce of aggression. He was listed as a pit bull mix at the shelter when he was smaller and still a younger puppy but now that he is an older puppy (about a year) it's obvious that he is not a pittie but looks more like a border collie. He is currently still in Oklahoma where he was rescued but he can only be adopted out of state where people treat animals well. He has to be prepaid and picked up directly from transport at one of our transport drop off locations below. If things don't work out for some reason, which rarely ever happens, we will either find a local foster to take him in or he will go back to Oklahoma on our next transport until a new home is found. Note: No dogs are advertised as potty-trained because most dogs need at least some re-training in a new environment and after being in a shelter/rescue environment/strays. www.facebook.com/desideratarescue/reviews (copy and paste into a new browser window) Transport locations: - Washington State (Kennewick, Spokane, Tumwater, Tacoma, Tukwila, Lynnwood/Edmonds, Bellingham) - Oregon (Portland and Springfield) - Colorado (Ft Lupton) - Idaho (Heyburn and Boise/Meridian) - Utah (Ogden) - Wyoming (Evanston, Rock Springs, Laramie) - Montana (Missoula) - Illinois (Vandalia, Springfield, Chicago) - Indiana (Spiceland, Burn Harbor) - Michigan (St Joseph, Battle Creek, Ann Arbor) - Wisconsin (Madison, Wausau, Eau Claire, Appleton, Milwaukee) - Minnesota (Minneapolis/St Paul) - Iowa (Des Moines) - Ohio (Columbus and London) - Pennsylvania (Erie, Pittsburgh and Harrisburg) - New York (Buffalo and Albany) - Connecticut (Enfield) - New Jersey (Bedminster) - Nevada (Las Vegas) - Arizona (Flagstaff) Vetting: neutered, microchipped, rabies vaccine, bordetella vaccine, dhpp vaccine x 3, lepto vaccine x 2, dewormed several times, on monthly flea and tick prevention, on monthly heartworm protection, heartworm tested (negative) Adoption fee: $550 (includes the $250 cost of transport from Oklahoma and all vetting listed above) Adoption application (copy and paste into a new browser window): https://form.jotform.com/82677586784176 FAQs (copy and paste into a new browser window): https://docs.google.com/document/d/12eb_SRtk1AzaBl87UltcLJ24MjH9UhQm_LE77iWZEQA/edit?tab=t.0 Desiderata Rescue is Oklahoma Licensed Rescue #95

Toldeo, OH
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Henry is about a year old and he is the best boy. He looks like a small great pyrenees but also like an all white border collie. His build and energy is definitely more border collie like. He looooves to play with other dogs and run and play in the water. He is outgoing and confident and very smart. He is also great with cats. He would do really well in active household that enjoys outdoor activities or on a farm where he gets to help with daily chores. Another playful dog in the home would be a bonus. He is currently still in Oklahoma where he was rescued but he can only be adopted out of state where people treat animals well. He has to be prepaid and picked up directly from transport at one of our transport drop off locations below.

Meet Pepper!Pepper is a 7 year old Australian Shepherd who recently came to FDHS with her best friend Ginger (also available) after their previous owner could no longer care for them.
