Border Collie puppies and dogs in Greenville, Pennsylvania

-

Jack's owner, my mother, had an emergency healthcare need that has left her unable to care for Jack. My wife and I have been temporarily homing him, but we don't have the ability to accommodate for him in our home long-term. We are hoping we can be involved in finding him a forever home. Jack is 9 years old, but he still gets the zoomies--he and my son will run from one end of our house to the other over and over. He'll grumble at you if he needs outside or wants your attention. He cuddles by leaning into you like you're cuddling up to watch a movie. He's protective of his food around other dogs (growls and hovers around his bowl), and has growled at my son. He is comfortable with an adult interacting with his food / bowl. He is relatively easy to train with consistency. For example, if he has a habit (like sleeping on your bed), and you keep consistent on the new boundary, he does well accepting it.

Currently enrolled in our Paws-in-Prison training program! He is learning all kinds of wonderful behaviors! You may apply now but he will not be available until he graduates!

Wilder is absolutely gorgeous! He was surrendered to us from a breeder and is a purebred Border Collie. He has the typical BC traits and loves to herd the dogs in his foster home. Unfortunately, Wilder was not socialized in the most critical time of his life (birth-16 weeks) and it shows when meeting new people and new things. We have worked hard with Wilder helping him gain confidence and he is so much better. Not knowing how bad he was though, it will be hard for most people to understand his accomplishments. Once Wilder feels comfortable around the new person or thing- he is amazing! He is SUPER sweet and loves attention. Wilder lives in one our busiest foster homes so he is extremely dog social and does amazing with all dogs but LOVES puppies! He is crate trained and housetrained. However, he has lived in a home with a doggie door so he may need reminded about "holding it if you don't have a hole in the wall for immediate outside access ;) One thing for certain he MUST have a second friendly, playful dog in the home. Wilder would not do well at all without a dog companion!

**WE ARE CURRENTLY DOING ADOPTIONS BY APPOINTMENT ONLY. YOU MUST CALL TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT IF YOU'RE INTERESTED IN ADOPTING. PLEASE LEAVE US A VOICEMAIL IF YOU ARE UNABLE TO REACH US. THANK YOU FOR YOUR PATIENCE AND UNDERSTANDING.- CCDP STAFF** Hi there. My name is Chunky. I'm about 3 years old and I weigh about 40 lbs. I was surrendered to the pound by previous owner towards the end of February. He had way too many dogs to be able to own, so he did the right thing and gave some of us up. On one hand, we all had a clean place to stay and food to eat and clean water, but on the other, we weren't able to receive proper training or much needed socialization. Due to my complete lack of social skills and lack of basic training, it took a several weeks before I could be handled. Needless to say, I apparently hid my pregnancy very well, because nobody could tell until they showed up to my 5 beautiful babies one day in early May. I was an excellent mama to my babies. During the period of time that I had my babies with me here at the pound, I really got used to a lot of walks ( I didn't know how to walk on a leash up until this point) and attention I wasn't really used to getting. I made a 180 in my behavior overall and I have really turned out to be such a wonderful, sweet, amazing little girl. I still can take quite a bit of time to warm up to new people that I'm not certain about. Sometimes I can be extremely fearful and it may take a few attempts before I will love and accept someone new the way I do my people here at the pound. Once I trust you, I am so affectionate and playful. I adore getting snuggles and hugs (but not before we know each other). I am definitely more fearful of men. I did get adopted for a short time by a young man and I absolutely would not warm up to him no matter how hard he tried, and ultimately, for my safety, I was returned. Young children also frighten me, so a come without children will be the best for me. I am very clean in my kennel and I do appear to have had some house training. I try very hard to keep my areas clean. If you're looking for a sweet, loving dog to add to your family, please consider adopting me. Our adoption fee is $152. We accept cash, check or credit/ debit cards for adoption fees. If you pay using a credit or debit card, a convenience fee of 2.39% will also be applied. If paying by check, you will need 2. One Check will be for the dog license, and one will be for your dog's adoption fee, which includes heartworm testing (for dogs 6 months of age old and older), parvo/distemper vaccine, rabies vaccine, bordetella vaccine, 3 days of panacur de-wormer, spay or neuter surgery, microchip, and a current Ohio dog license. We DO offer foster to adopt. (We will NOT accept cash for foster to adopt). We highly recommend you do a foster to adopt with your new dog if you are not 100% sure your new dog is going to work out in your home. Foster to adopt gives you a couple of weeks with the dog to make sure they are a good fit with your family before your payment is processed and the adoption is finalized. ALL DOGS/PUPPIES WILL BE SPAYED OR NEUTERED unless a health issue prohibits the surgery from being performed. Not all dogs posted for adoption are spayed/ neutered yet. If you're driving a long distance to adopt, please verify that the vetting process has been completed and dog you're interested in adopting is still available for adoption. The above mentioned vetting is all included in your adoption fee. The adoption fee and what is included in the adoption fee is NON-NEGOTIABLE. Adoptions MUST be done at the pound and in person as there is paperwork to fill out and an adoption contract that must be signed by the adopter. This means you must be willing to travel to our shelter to adopt. If the dog you're interested in adopting has medical conditions or injuries which require medical treatment, we ask that you help with the medical bills, in addition to their adoption fee if possible so we can continue to help the dogs coming in who need additional vet care. We are a county run shelter, therefore we cannot control our intake or the health or behavior of the dogs that come in to our shelter. Although we try our hardest to place all of our adoptable dogs, there are certain circumstances in which any dog in our care could be euthanized at any time and without further notice (IE: sudden untreatable medical condition or injury, temperament or behavioral problems which may not be apparent when the dog first arrives, etc.), therefore all dogs at our shelter should be considered urgent. We try our absolute hardest to never have to euthanize for space and have not had to do so for many years thanks to the ongoing support from the public and high adoption rates. Please remember; the adoption of a more highly adoptable dog will mean more time for the less adoptable dog in the kennel next to him! Shelter hours are Monday-Friday: 8 am- 4 pm. Saturday, Sunday and holidays: 8 am - 12 pm. Adoptions are always welcome any day of the week/ weekend and on holidays. We are here everyday to care for the dogs and the best way to make our day is to see our dogs go to loving families. There is nobody in the office on Saturday, Sunday or holidays, so therefore, we are unable to answer or return phone calls over the weekend. We are only staffed to take care of the dogs and do adoptions over the weekends/ on holidays. Can't adopt a dog? We would love to have more volunteers who are able to spend time with our dogs! The dogs LOVE going for walks and the socialization and exercise helps make the dogs more adoptable.

Badger’s looking for a farm! Badger is a 49 lb., 7 year old, neutered, housebroken Border Collie and Hound mix. Badger’s habit of trying to “herd” a little girl who used to visit landed him at the shelter even though he was fine with older children in the home. Badger has the beautiful markings of a Border Collie minus the static cling and tangles because his fur is Hound dog short. Badger responds well to positive training and leadership; he could earn a place in the Guinness book of world records for “dog who can play fetch the longest.” Hound dogs do not do well in shelters and Badger is no exception. Confinement in such a small space is challenging for Badger, who loves to play and explore. If you prefer dogs to people, and if you have some land you wouldn’t mind sharing with this Border Collie/Hound country boy, please contact Tri-County Animal Rescue Center ( kennel license # 8704 ) on Facebook, or call 814-918-2032, or email: contactus@Tricounty-arc.org
