Hi. I’m James Dean. Yes, that James Dean energy… just significantly fluffier and with way fewer bad decisions. I’d like to formally clear my name of any rumors suggesting I’m a wild rebel without a cause. I am, in fact, a rebel with a nap schedule. I’m calm, docile, and overall very go-with-the-flow. I love to play, but I don’t need to run your household or scale the furniture like a caffeinated raccoon. I’m easygoing, sweet, and genuinely just happy to be here. I’m the kind of guy who enjoys company, appreciates a good routine, and believes life is best when it includes snacks, soft places to lie down, and people who think I’m perfect (because I am). I’m a 4–5 month old, ~36-lb male Border Collie mix, which means I was genetically engineered to be fluffy, thoughtful, and quietly judging your life choices from a comfortable distance. I’m calm, docile, and very much an easygoing guy… until playtime happens and I briefly remember I am, in fact, a puppy. Then it’s a little bounce, a little zoom, a little “wow I love being alive,” followed by an immediate return to chill mode. Before all this luxury foster life business, my siblings and I were abandoned and left to fend for ourselves. Not ideal. A very kind Good Samaritan made sure we were fed and safe as best they could, but we were still living outside—and let me tell you, outdoor living hits different when Arctic weather and aggressively cold snow show up uninvited. Thankfully, rescue swooped in just in time, and now I’m warm, safe, and fully committed to never seeing winter from the outside again. I love other dogs. Love them. Adore them. Think they are the absolute best invention since treats. If there is another dog in the vicinity, I will happily engage in professional-grade playtime that includes wrestling, zooming, and the occasional dramatic flop for effect. I have not met a cat. That said, I’m a pretty calm, easygoing guy with excellent vibes and zero interest in unnecessary drama. I have not been around kids yet. What I can tell you is that I’m calm, gentle, and generally operate on “easygoing old soul” settings—so with proper introductions and supervision (because, again, puppy), I’d likely approach the situation with curiosity and polite confusion rather than chaos. On the official Energy Level Scale, I clock in at a very respectable 5. This means I enjoy playing, exploring, and having moments where I remember I am a puppy with legs that go fast… but I am not interested in turning your house into a 24/7 obstacle course. I do a little fun, a little frolic, and then I sit down like a gentleman. I would like to go on record as equal parts adventure-seeker and professional homebody. I enjoy adventures in reasonable doses, followed immediately by being inside. Warm. Safe. Preferably on furniture. In fact, I was the first among my siblings to locate the couch, recognize its importance, and claim it as a key resource. A natural leader, really. So I’ll happily join you for some playtime or exploring, but my heart belongs to indoor living, soft surfaces, and strategic couch naps. I like balance. I like comfort. My overall temperament? Calm. Docile. Surprisingly well-adjusted for someone my age. Don’t get me wrong—I am still pure puppy. I love to play, I enjoy a good romp, and I will absolutely entertain you just by existing because apparently I’m “funny to watch” and “so cute it hurts” (your words, not mine, but I’ll accept them). Water? I have not officially tested my feelings about pools, sprinklers, hoses, or any other suspicious wet situations. HOWEVER—I would like it noted for the record that I loved the snow. Now, let’s talk real estate. While I could theoretically adapt to many living situations, my ideal setup includes a yard. Yard playtime is my jam. I like being outside on my own terms, supervising the perimeter, casually existing near other dogs, and then wandering back inside when I’ve had enough fresh air. I don’t need constant human micromanagement, but I do appreciate having space to stretch my legs and enjoy some peaceful outdoor time. I am a puppy. A very good one. A calm one. A charming one. But still—a puppy. Which means my future family will need to come prepared to do some very normal, very responsible human things such as: potty training, puppy-proofing, socializing, and training me to become the excellent adult dog I am clearly destined to be. I need positive experiences with people, dogs, sounds, places, and everyday life things so I can grow into the confident, well-adjusted adult I am clearly destined to become. Clear expectations, gentle structure, and consistency will help me shine. I’m not here to run your household—I just need you to explain how it works. And now, the grand finale, brought to you by me—James Dean, professional heart-stealer and extremely reasonable puppy. I’m affectionate, laid back, funny without trying, and honestly just a very easy puppy to love. All I’m asking is that you fall in love (this part will happen automatically), fill out an adoption application at https://www.pyrpawsandfluffytailsrescue.com/adoption-app (this part requires effort), and then we’ll send it along to my foster family so they can confirm that yes, I am exactly as charming as advertised. Once approved, you will need to pick me up in OKC. I will not be shipping myself. I will not be Ubering. I will, however, be waiting patiently So go ahead. Apply. I promise to be worth the drive, the paperwork, and the lifelong commitment.

Some dogs are espresso shots. I’m more like the warm mug you keep refilling because you didn’t realize how much you needed me until I was already in your hands. I’m the kind of guy who sits in the back of the class, actually doing the assignment, mentally noting that half of you are chewing on pencils for no reason. I don’t need to be the loudest or the flashiest—never have. I observe. I assess. I decide who’s worth my time… and once you make the cut, congratulations—you get my goofy, sweet, slightly ridiculous inner circle version. I love playing with my close friends, and when I’m comfortable, I’ll surprise you with my zoomies, my silly moments, and my very serious opinions about cuddle positioning. So if you’re looking for a flashy show-off who throws himself at everyone he meets, I’m probably not your guy. But if you want the quiet heartthrob who sneaks up on you and then never really leaves your side? Yeah. That’s me. James.... Before we dive too far in, I should probably start with the part where I survived my independent outdoor survival era—because yes, that was a thing. I’m a 4–5 month old, ~30 lb Pyr/Border Collie mix, and before I landed here, my siblings and I were abandoned and doing our best “tiny rugged adventurer” impression. Thankfully, a very kind human made sure we were fed and safe-ish, even though we were living outside. It wasn’t glamorous, but honestly, up until then...it was the only life we had ever known. Right as the Arctic weather decided to roll in with its aggressive snow and “absolutely not” temperatures, Pyr Paws swooped in like the heroes they are and scooped us up just in time. Honestly? Excellent timing. I look great in snow, but I strongly prefer observing it from indoors with snacks. I get along with other dogs just fine—I’m just not here to wrestle every stranger I meet like it’s a middle school gym class. I respect personal space. I appreciate dogs who do the same. If we’re friends? Great, I’ll play. If we’re not? Also great, I’ll simply coexist like a well-adjusted adult. I have not yet been formally introduced to any feline roommates, so my official stance is “to be determined.” I suspect I would approach the situation thoughtfully, with mild curiosity and zero chaos—because that’s my brand—but until science runs the experiment, we simply cannot say. I have been around a 16-year-old human, and I would like the record to show that it went very well. She provided excellent pets, solid companionship, and understood that I am not a jungle gym. In return, I offered calm presence and occasional playful sidekick energy. A mutually respectful arrangement, really. If this is what “teenagers” are like, I approve. On a scale of 1 to 10, my energy level is a very intentional 5. I can play. I can engage. I can absolutely show up when it’s time to have fun. But I can also chill. Observe. Lounge dramatically. Recharge. Am I an adventure-seeker or a homebody? At this time, I am a young, indecisive puppy with mixed feelings. Some days I’m like, yes, let’s explore the world, see the sights, sniff everything. Other days I’m like, counterpoint: the couch exists. I’m still figuring out who I am and what my brand is, but early signs point to “moderate adventure, followed by a nap.” I’m best described as gentle, a little shy, and very much a sweetheart in progress. I like to take my time getting comfortable. I hang back, watch the room, and quietly decide that yes, this seems safe… and also you seem nice. With other puppies, though, I loosen up faster and enjoy a good play session once I’m feeling settled. When it comes to people, I might not run up and demand attention right away, but once I know you? Oh, I love a good pet. I just need a minute to warm up first. I may be a slow start, but I promise I’m very worth the wait—and I come with a surprisingly goofy side once I trust you. As for housing requirements: I would very much like a securely fenced yard. Somewhere I can safely roam, sniff, and stare into the distance like a dog in an indie film. Could I survive without one? Sure. Would I reach my full potential without it? Debatable. Basically—give me toys, a yard, and a family who understands that I am a gentleman with zoomies, and we’ll all be very happy. Before we go any further, I’d like to address something important: I am still young, which means puppy-proofing your home will be your responsibility, not a reflection of my character. I am learning how the world works, and sometimes the world leaves very interesting items within reach. That feels like a setup. I’ll also need you to commit to socialization and training so I can grow into the well-adjusted, emotionally stable adult everyone brags about. With consistency and patience, I’m going to shine. And now, the part where you admit that you have fallen in love and take the next step in welcoming me home. Fill out the adoption application at https://www.pyrpawsandfluffytailsrescue.com/adoption-app so the nice rescue people can send it to my foster family and confirm that you are, in fact, prepared to be obsessed with me. Then come pick me up in Hutchinson, KS, which I assume is your way of proving you’re serious about this relationship.

"I’m basically the equivalent of warm cinnamon rolls fresh out of the oven — except I’m a dog, and instead of icing I come fully frosted with joy." Hello, Montgomery Clift here, and yes, I’m aware that my name sounds like I should be wearing a turtleneck and brooding dramatically near a window. Unfortunately for those hoping for that aesthetic, I am happy, like very happy. Like you just booked your beach vacation, or you just told your kid that you guys are going to Disneyland. Yep, that kind of happy! I’m a 4–5 month old, 32-lb Border Collie mix, and despite my very serious, old-Hollywood name, I am powered almost entirely by happiness and vibes. I came into rescue after being abandoned with my siblings. We were left to figure things out on our own, living outside, and thankfully a very kind human made sure we were fed and safe — even though they couldn’t keep us forever. Just in time (like, dramatically just in time), we were scooped up before the Arctic weather rolled in with its rude amounts of cold and snow. Now? I am living my best indoor life. I am super sweet, constantly excited, and approach every single day like it personally invited me to a party. I’m playful, affectionate, and always happy to see you — whether you’ve been gone five minutes or five hours. I don’t really do “bad days.” I do tail wags, happy hops, and the firm belief that everything is going to be okay. Other dogs? Huge fan. Five stars. Would recommend. I am friendly, playful, and very confident in my ability to make every dog my friend. Size does not intimidate me. Age does not discourage me. If you have a dog, I will assume they are here to play with me and that this was all pre-approved. I haven’t officially met a cat yet, but based on my track record with literally everyone else, I feel it’s only fair to warn you: I am extremely enthusiastic about meeting new beings. I love attention. I love playing. I love saying hello like it’s the most important event of the day. So if a cat exists, I will probably assume it is a friend-shaped mystery who desperately needs to be greeted… immediately… with joy. With proper introductions, guidance, and someone reminding me that not everyone shares my excitement level, I could absolutely learn that my level of enthusiasm might not be their idea of a fun time. Kids? My résumé is currently kid-free. That said, I am young, adaptable, and deeply motivated by attention — so the odds are in my favor. I’m a busy boy with a lot of enthusiasm and a strong appreciation for people who want to play, pet me, and tell me I’m handsome (which I am). With proper introductions and some guidance to make sure my excitement doesn’t turn into accidental chaos, I think I’d do just fine. Especially if those kids enjoy an upbeat, playful dog who is always ready to be involved in whatever is happening. Calmer or more active lifestyle? Why choose just one lifestyle when you can have both? I absolutely love adventures — outside is exciting, the world is fascinating, and I’m very interested in seeing all of it. That said, I am also a big fan of being inside where the couches live and the people are. So yes — take me on hikes, walks, outings, and fun excursions. And then let’s come back inside so I can sprawl out dramatically and recharge like the clever, cozy genius I am. Temperament wise, I would describe myself as enthusiastically optimistic, with occasional moments of “okay wait… let me think about that for half a second.” I’m excited about life, but I’m still learning, so sometimes I pause, assess, and then proceed with confidence once I realize it’s not, in fact, a threat. I love people, toys, and other dogs — basically anything that might result in fun or affection. Water? Jury’s out. I tolerated my bath like a gentleman and did not file a formal complaint. Snow, however, was very fun… briefly. I enjoyed it, played in it, and then decided I was finished. When that happened, I learned to climb onto a table to avoid further snow participation and was always the first one back inside like, “Thank you, winter, that’s enough.” Toys are excellent and I support their continued existence in my future home. Living arrangements? I’m flexible. Yard? Love it. Apartment? Cool, as long as we go on walks and I get to burn off my happy energy. No fence? Fine — leash walks and activity will do just nicely. Basically, give me daily outlets, some structure, and a reason to feel included, and I’ll thrive wherever we land. Potty trained? Emotionally, yes. Logistically, still learning. When the routine is solid, I do really well — my little puppy brain just needs consistency while it finishes downloading the rest of the software. Yes. I bark. But only for important announcements. Like when you come home — obviously this requires a celebratory vocal notification. Mornings? Also important. I’ve survived the night (and being away from you) and need everyone to be aware of that success. Just a friendly reminder that I am a puppy, not a fully polished adult with a résumé and life skills. My future family will need to do the classic puppy things: puppy-proof the house (because curiosity is my love language), socialize me so I grow up confident and well-rounded, and invest in training so I can become the impressive, well-mannered dog everyone brags about. So anyway — if you’re looking for a relentlessly happy, sweet, playful little guy who wakes up every day choosing joy and immediately wants to share it with you… hi. It’s me. I am ready. All you have to do is fill out the adoption application at https://www.pyrpawsandfluffytailsrescue.com/adoption-app (that lets the humans do their important human things and send it to my foster family so they can decide if you’re worthy of my vibes). Once approved, you’ll need to come pick me up in Oklahoma City, where I will be waiting and absolutely prepared to steal your entire heart.
