Border Collie puppies and dogs in Lake Oswego, Oregon

This is Alvin- tall, dark, and handsome, plus he is smart, great company and ready for anything but looking for forever! See what he is bringing to the table here then come back to read more about him! https://youtu.be/mdSnEmN08NY Alvin became a fast favorite of everyone here for more than his good looks. His ears and happy sunshine face grab your attention then his good-natured personality seals the deal. He is a perfect passenger prince, is house and crate trained, plays fetch, is a great doggie playmate and is self-entertaining….seriously the more I think about it- he is pretty great... I’ll race you to apply for him! Estimated to be 2 years old and weighing 55 lbs, Alvin had us all guessing at what breed mix he might be. We can’t say with 100% confidence with any rescue dog but this boy here feels like a shot in the dark for us, so if you adopt him and get his DNA results can you share them? It’ll help settle some bets. We have a couple bets on Collie/ Shepherd, throw in some pittie to make a true Texas special. Alvin is so fortunate and is being fostered in a loving home while he waits for his forever home. His foster shared, he is house and crate trained, has good house manners and minds basic commands. Alvin is living along-side an older female boxer who has past her days of play and is more into naps and Alvin respects that. Luckily he gets regular meet-ups with other dogs to get his play energy out. We introduced Alvin to a handful of dogs to get a feel for his “type” of dog and see his play style in action. Alvin loves to play! He has a rough and tumble approach to play and when his playmate matches that it is so fun to watch. His immediate play connection was with a female who was both similar in size to him as well as an energetic match. But no matter the dogs he met he was easy going and respectful. During his first on-leash meeting he was visibly excited but contained it well and once he got to meet her that excitement dissipated into an appropriate dog meeting. He is dog-friendly but has an enthusiastic approach to play that won’t suit every dog. Alvin would flourish in a home with a confident, moderately playful female dog who will match him. His foster has shared his love of outdoor adventures, and you can see he is practically built for it. That sleek frame and those long legs are begging to be a regular on your favorite hiking trail or running path. Bonus, getting there will just as enjoyable. If you get the door Alvin can load up on his own and is happy to curl up in the seat to watch through the window or take a little nap. Because of his size and love of bouncy play and a good round of fetch, Alvin would do best in a home with a yard, older kids and no cats, as he’s still working on his boundaries with smaller animals and his enthusiasm for play could knock over a little one on unsteady legs. He would both love and thrive in a home with a dog-friend to bounce around with and take naps in the shade next to. But don’t worry, despite his love of a good romp, you will often find him laying around with a toy or chewie. We love a a self-entertaining dog! Personality wise, Alvin can be described as a gentleman, who is polite socially, no pushy people greetings with him, and a perfect touch silly. Alvin has classic good dog potential, he is most of the way there but a forever family of his own and experiencing life by your side, is what will bring out that last bit of perfection. If any part of you thinks Alvin is the one, apply now! If you have any questions about Alvin or are ready to move forward by applying, here is all the info you need.

Hi! I'm Ever Wild - a goofy, bouncy, lovable Border Collie with a heart full of cuddles and curiosity! I was rescued from a farm, so city life is still kinda new (so many noises!), but I'm learning fast. I might be a little shy at first, but once I know you're safe, I'm all tail wags, zoomies, and snuggles. I LOVE playing fetch, learning tricks (did someone say treat?), and Ive already nailed a few commands. With a little leash practice, I'll be your perfect jogging or hiking buddy. I'd do best as your one-and-only pet. I need someone patient and experienced who can help me keep building confidence. I didn't click with the dog in my current home, but I know my perfect match is out there. If you've got a calm home and a kind heart, I'll be your most loyal (and slightly goofy) adventure buddy ever. 💛

Archer was acquired from the Nevada Humane Society in Northern Nevada. He's lived in Nevada, Florida and now Oregon. He spent the last 6 years with an elderly cat. He was raised with a Labrador Retriever. He is very timid, but very excitable. He spends most days chewing on a stuffed lamb toy and asking for pets. He's been on a few roadtrips across the country. He's a smart boy, but does get very excited sometimes.

Milo is a one year border collie in need of an experienced and loving home. Me and my partner got him about 8 months ago and quickly realized our space will not accommodate his needs. He is in need of more house training and ample opportunities to burn his energy.
