Story
Meet Katie — a 6-month-old possible Border Collie mix with puppy energy, a sweet soul, and a playful personality that keeps life fun. At around 30 pounds, she’s the perfect size for adventures, couch cuddles, and supervising the household full-time. Katie was found tied to a tree in a busy area, but despite her rough start, she’s remained incredibly loving and gentle. She can be a little timid when meeting new people, but once she knows she’s safe, she turns into a total affection addict who wants nonstop pets and attention. She loves chew toys, gets along great with other dogs and cats, and has fully embraced her self-appointed role of “cat herding specialist.” Katie is also doing wonderfully with crate training and is already showing how smart and eager to learn she is. Katie is looking for a patient, loving family who will continue helping her build confidence and give her the happy ending she deserves. In return, she’ll provide endless laughs, loyal companionship, and plenty of puppy entertainment.

Story
Hi! My name is Aspen! I'm 1&1/2 years old. I was left at an auction house with my litter mates when I was 7 weeks old. I was found and taken home to live with a family and their 2 dogs. It's not a good fit for me though. One of my foster brothers is older and my playful energy stresses him a bit. My foster mom works a lot and I need more time than she has for me. I'm looking for my forever home. I'm super lovable and love to give kisses! I'm very energetic but love my sleep! I love other dogs, and I like cats. I love people and kids! I'm kind of big and clumsy and might knock down small children. I love to chew! I am housebroken, just not sure what I can and can't chew, so I stay in my crate when I'm home alone. I know some commands and tricks and am eager to learn more. I learn quick! I'm always so happy to see you and give you kisses! I love going for walks, hikes, car rides, and just exploring. I love fetch. I love treats and peanut butter. I'm a big love bug! Wanna meet me?

Story
This sweet Border Collie mix may be a little shy at first, but all Nectar really wants is someone to love him. Found alone in a barn and never claimed, he's still learning that people can be kind and dependable. While he may hesitate at first, give him just a few minutes and you'll see his brave little heart start to shine. Nectar is doing his very best to trust, and he's looking for a patient family who will show him that he's finally home. Could you be the one to give this gentle boy the love he's been waiting for?

Story
Kane is a handsome Border Collie mix with a sensitive soul and a heart full of love just waiting for the right person to unlock it. This sweet boy can be timid with strangers and new places. In fact, after he was adopted once before, he got spooked and ended up on his own for nearly a month. But here’s what that tells us about Kane: he needs patience, understanding, and a home that will help him feel safe and secure. Once Kane knows he’s safe, his true personality shines. He absolutely adores attention — especially belly rubs — and he’ll happily repay you with a shower of sweet kisses. His tail wags a little harder, his eyes soften, and you can practically see the trust growing day by day. Kane loves to stretch his legs, running and playing in our fenced area with pure joy. Walks are one of his favorite things, and he lights up when it’s time for playdates. He enjoys meeting new dogs and truly thrives when he has a canine buddy to romp around with. Underneath his cautious exterior is an energetic, affectionate, and deeply loyal companion. Kane isn’t looking for just any home — he’s looking for his person. Someone who understands that the best relationships are built on patience and trust. If you’re willing to give him the time he needs, Kane will give you something truly special in return: unwavering love, playful adventures, and a bond that only comes from helping a shy heart feel safe again. Could you be the fresh start Kane has been waiting for? 🐾
