Story

If you’re a fan of Yellowstone, you already know the name Dutton stands for loyalty, grit, and heart and this Dutton lives up to it in the most lovable, tail-wagging way possible. Dutton is a one year old Border Collie mix with a sharp mind, a playful spirit, and an “always on” attitude toward life. He came to the shelter as a stray after being found tied to a bench, but he hasn’t let his rough start dull his sparkle. He’s now neutered, in good health, and ready to find his forever ranch…or couch…or agility course. What makes Dutton special? Smart & Driven: He already knows sit and is eager to learn more—especially if treats or toys are involved. Play is His Love Language: Toys, games, interaction—if it involves you and fun, Dutton is ALL IN. High Energy, High Potential: As a young Border Collie mix, Dutton thrives when his brain and body are exercised. Agility, flyball, “find it” games, trick training—this guy would love a job. Friendly & Engaging: He’s social and people-oriented, though he can get jumpy and amped up when excited. The good news? He does respond to settling cues and shines with structure and positive reinforcement. Dog & Home Notes: He’s met male dogs and was interested but a bit unsure when they were too pushy—he may do best with female dogs. Any dog introductions should be slow, supervised, and on leash. Due to jumpiness and unknown history, small children are not recommended at this time. A home with dog experience, especially with herding breeds, would be ideal. Someone who enjoys training, classes, and the idea of a “working dog” will absolutely love Dutton. A handler who is home more often would help him continue building confidence and learning how to settle. Dutton’s Ideal Match: A committed, positive-reinforcement household that understands Border Collies need structure, boundaries, and lots of fun. He does not respond well to aversive methods but truly shines when learning is engaging, rewarding, and consistent. Dutton is the kind of dog who will keep you laughing, moving, and learning right alongside him. If you’re ready for a loyal sidekick with energy, intelligence, and a big personality, Dutton is ready to be your right-hand ranch dog. Think you can keep up with a Dutton?

Story

Ready for his home in Toronto 🇨🇦 🐾 Background This handsome boy was rescued from a slaughterhouse in the summer of 2022 in Daegu, Korea. After his rescue, he lived in a local shelter for three years but couldn’t find a home in Korea. After hearing his story, we brought him to our boarding house, knowing that a loving family is waiting for him in Canada. His forever home is out there, and he is ready to find it. 🐾 Personality & Behavior Camper is a wonderful Border Collie with a sweet and gentle personality. He has medium energy, much calmer than a typical Border Collie, making him well-mannered and easygoing. He is social and friendly, not shy around strangers, and he gets along beautifully with other dogs. Camper is never dominant or aggressive; he is always polite and affectionate. Among people at the shelter, he is one of the sweetest and most popular dogs, loved by volunteers for his friendly and gentle nature. 🐾 Daily Life & Habits Camper is well-behaved both indoors and outdoors. He goes potty outside and is easy to care for. He handles bath time and car ride well, and walks nicely on leash, though he sometimes gets excited by new sights during walks. He does not like being caged but has shown no signs of separation anxiety or destructive behavior. Camper is simply a sweet, well-mannered boy who makes life easy and enjoyable. 🐾 Health & Diet Camper has been on regular parasite prevention since his rescue and has had full veterinary checkups. He is dewormed, microchipped, neutered, and up to date on vaccines. He is healthy, happy, and ready for his forever home. Camper eats kibble twice a day and has shown no food allergies. 🐾 Ideal Home Camper is smart, quick to learn, and very sociable. He will thrive in a home that enjoys spending time outdoors. While he does not require excessive exercise like some Border Collies, he enjoys daily walks, playtime, and outdoor adventures. He will happily balance activity with relaxation and is a perfect companion for a family who loves to include their dog in their outdoor lifestyle. Whoever adopts Camper will be very lucky to have such a gentle, affectionate, and loyal friend. ⬇️ Become Camper's family today through link below: https://www.freekoreandogs.org/dog/camper/

Story

Meet CoCo Name: CoCo Age: 1 year Sex: Neutered Male Breed: Border Collie Mix Color: Black / White / Brown Weight: 10 kg Height: 43–45 cm (shoulder height) Rescue Story CoCo was rescued on November 19, 2025, from a severe animal hoarding case involving over 200 dogs. He was extremely fearful of people when first rescued, but after one month in a foster home, he has made remarkable progress and has learned that humans can be kind and safe. With People CoCo may be a little shy at first, but once treats come out, he quickly warms up and starts trusting. After he bonds with someone, he enjoys being touched and can even be picked up by supporting his belly. When he feels close to you, he will roll over and show his tummy as a sign of affection. His confidence with people has grown significantly — he now shows interest in people on walks and has recently started paying special attention to women, sometimes wanting to follow them. He also prefers to sleep close to his people. With Other Dogs CoCo is generally neutral toward other dogs. He doesn’t seek out play and usually ignores dogs that approach him. However, he can feel nervous around dogs larger than himself. If another dog acts pushy or challenging, CoCo chooses to avoid the situation rather than react. With Cats & Birds When he sees cats on walks, he may look at them with curiosity, but he will follow his handler when guided. He may show a brief chasing response toward birds. Energy Level CoCo has a moderate energy level. He enjoys outdoor activities and especially loves walking, running, and moving. After exercise, he settles down well and relaxes calmly. On Walks CoCo loves walks and prefers brisk walking or jogging over sniffing. He does pull on leash, but he follows his handler and is currently practicing better leash manners. He has recently become more interested in people while walking, which can distract him, so continued training will help. At Home & Other Notes • No food guarding with people or dogs • Rarely barks, but may bark to ask for something • May whine briefly in a kennel, then settles • Jumps into and out of the car on his own • Uses both pee pads and outdoor potty • Not very interested in toys • Knows “sit” and “paw,” currently learning “down” • Recently showing some separation anxiety — gradual alone-time training is recommended • Has chewed phone charging cables, so wires should be kept out of reach • Currently teething, so safe chew toys are important • Not food-obsessed, but happily takes treats CoCo is a gentle, sensitive, and affectionate boy who has overcome a difficult past. With patience, structure, and love, he will continue to grow into a loyal and wonderful companion Apply to adopt or foster: https://adoptmekr.org Please also visit our Facebook or Instagram.

Story

Hi, my name is Oreo, Male - pending neuterBorder Collie MixApprox. 7 months oldI'm a happy go-lucky guy who's always ready to play and shower my human friends with affection. My friendly nature makes me a perfect companion for families or individuals looking for a loyal friend. I must admit, though, that as a puppy, I'm still learning the ropes and can be a bit jumpy at times. But with some patience and consistent training, I'm sure to mature into a well-behaved dog.Right now, I'm diligently working on my potty training. I'm eager to learn, and with a little guidance, I'll quickly catch on to all the necessary routines. It's important for my new family to continue my training by providing positive reinforcement and plenty of encouragement. This will help me become the best version of myself.I would thrive in a home where I can receive plenty of love, attention, and exercise. An active family or individual who enjoys outdoor activities would be perfect for me. Since I'm still learning, a patient and committed adopter will be essential in helping me grow into a well-mannered adult dog.My playful energy and affectionate nature make me an ideal pet for those looking to add a furry friend to their family. Primary Color: Black Secondary Color: White Weight: 17 Age: 0yrs 7mths 0wks
