Meet Stryker! 🐾 Stryker is a young adult Border Collie mix with a friendly, outgoing personality and a whole lot of energy to share. He’s an active, enthusiastic boy who’s always ready for his next adventure.

Smart, energetic, and eager to please, Stryker would thrive with a family who can keep him active and engaged. The shelter is open Tuesday through Friday from 3:30 PM to 6:30 PM, and on Saturday and Sunday from 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM. A meet-and-greet is required for all shelter dogs if you already have a dog. Thank you for considering the adoption of a shelter animal in need!

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

Story
Lia and Nico are the two best companions anyone could wish for. It would be wonderful if they were adopted together. They are brother and sister 8 years old purchased from a breeder in Eastern PA at 12 weeks. They are sweet, loyal, loving, obedient, incredibly smart and wonderful companions. Nico prefers to be outside but is equally happy indoors. Lia prefers to be where you are, whether indoors or out. Again super smart and respond to Come, Stay, Sit, Paw, Down, Sit on Beds, Find the ball.

Verona

Border Collie Terrier (Unknown Type, Medium)

Female, 7 mos
Valley View, OH

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.
