Story
I'm Chess and I'm here to tell you that there is no sweeter pup than me. I'm about 20 pounds, one year old and super cute. I like toys, nylabones and playing with other dogs. At first I had no idea what a leash or harness was but after some practice, I'm excited now to go for walks every morning. I make a great little office assistant if you work from home and I sleep quietly through the night. I learned the doggie door pretty quickly and that helped a lot with my house training. I'm pretty much a total puppy package and hope you will consider adding me to your family.

Story
Looking for a young female to adopt? Meet JUNO! Juno is a Border Collie lovers DREAM! She is everything you would want in a BC puppy (under 1 year old). She is a lovely girl and full of energy, well trained for the most part. Happy, healthy, spayed, FUN, and BEAUTIFUL, this pup is magnificent! She loves to swim, play with toys, and do tricks for treats! She is fostered in a home with cats and doesn't seem bothered by them. Sometimes she wants to play (which is not allowed, cat's preference) but is not aggressive with them. She has been around very young children a little bit but her puppy energy is too much for small children. Children over age 10 who know how to handle a dog should be ok. She crates well. If you seriously want a stunning BC pup, this is your girl! Apply to adopt at bcrrt.com.

Meet Izzy bizzy bee   Izzy is a very special girl and she’s looking for her very special family, maybe that’s you or someone you know!  Izzy is a former alumni dog who has come back to BCRRT - through no fault of her previous family - unfortunately circumstances changed and it was best for all parties that Izzy come back to us.  Since being back we have learnt all about Izzy and her wonderful personality. We have discovered the love she gives us is never ending, the cuddles she produces are out of this world and that she loves nothing more than her donut ring toy and a tennis ball!! She does take time to warm up but once she trusts you, she bonds to her person/people and is ready for all the adventures that lie ahead.  Izzy will need a home that is quiet but one that can stimulate her fun, loving energy! Izzy does take time to adjust to new people/strangers but once she knows you, she is all cuddles. She would be best suited to a family with no young children and no other dogs.  She is such a sweet girl with love to give and would love to find her forever home with people willing to spend time with her, throwing a ball around, quiet walks with her humans and cuddles.  She is active but has an excellent off-switch and knows when it is time for inside vs outside. Izzy would do well with an older couple, maybe an empty-nest home where she can be spoilt forever and ever. In return she will give you her unwavering loyalty and spunk  Izzy is around 6 years old, UTD on all shots and spayed. She is crate trained but is perfectly fine out of one, she walks well on a leash but is strong. She rides well in a car and is located in the DFW area.  Interested? Reach out to us and apply today! We believe Izzy deserves the world and can’t wait to help her find it.

Story
Are you a gentle person looking for a companion who is easy to exercise in your fenced yard and a wonderfully entertaining friend? That’s ME! I’m Sydney! I’m a small girl (34 lbs), 1.5 years old, spayed, healthy, vaccinated BC/Mini Aussie mix. I like training exercises (treats!) and learn fast! I sleep deeply through the night in my comfy crate and don’t mind spending a bit of time there during the day if you have to run errands (like getting me new tennis balls!) I have a busy mind, will bark at sudden noises (so apartment living would not be a good fit). I can be picky about canine friends and not a good buddy for birds, cats, squirrels, rabbits, or small children. I am smart and sensitive, will follow you everywhere, look to you for guidance and comfort (and tennis balls). I truly want to please you. I am expressive, have the cutest wiggle butt you’ve EVER seen, and if you love to laugh out loud, I’m your girl! I am currently in the DFW area and ready to be adopted! Apply for me at bcrrt.com.

Story
Meet BIG ENERGY Benny the red with the striking blue eyes and precious freckles. Benny is an active 9-10 month old 40lb neutered male. He is ALL in for love and attention, like 100% this dog loves hard. He has never met a stranger and still believes he should greet you with a bear hug and also should be a lap dog- because why not? A day in the life of Benny: he will wade in the pool but not much of a swimmer. Next on his agenda: he will chase a ball but might get distracted by something else exciting in the yard. He likes structure, but not necessarily following the rules (he's a smart one). Like he puts his paws on the counter to get a better vantage point- whatcha doing? He is a vocal guy- barks to come inside if you accidentally leave him outside to potty too long, barks when let out of the crate because he's excited to see you, barks when put in the crate, play barks with his foster dog family. He is not a watch dog, however, because he wouldn't dare bark at the delivery guy unless the other dogs convince him to do so. Remember he just wants to give that guy a hug. Benny is completely housebroken, chooses toys over furniture but might carry around a shoe if left out. This guy has done great with his crate training. He crates when left alone and may bark a little but a chew bone keeps him busy. He sleeps up to 11 hours in a crate in the room with his human and dog family. Benny walks great on a leash after he shakes out the first minute of excitement for going on a walk. His exhuberance for life might be a bit overwelming for younger kids or cats- so we recommend that his fur-ever home has experienced dog owners. Benny currently loves playing with the younger dog in his foster home (respects boundaries of the senior dogs) and would love a playmate who matches his energy. What does that look like? Well right now its octane levels of chase through the yard and house where he might scale some furniture, then hit the floor with bitey face wrestlemania, toss a hard bone in the air for attention and then crash out at your feet when done. So you might ask- does BIG ENERGY Benny have an off switch? Yes! He loves to snuggle up on the couch (or your feet) after he burns off his desire for action. He will put his head in your lap for an entire first half of a football game just to be with his people. If you are thinking about bringing Benny into your family here's what we would love for you to consider: Are you ready to implement obedience training to streamline his puppy behavior (jumping, paws on counter)? Are you willing to have slow introductions with a pet at home to ensure they enjoy each others energy? Are you able to spend time daily with activity, social and mental interaction to help him thrive? If this in-your-face ridiculously handsome boy is calling your name then it's time to submit an application so Benny can run into the arms of his forever family. I mean, his picture on your holiday cards is screaming AWWEEE. Benny is currently fostered in the DFW metroplex and will require a meet and greet. All applications may be submitted though our website: www.bcrrt.com

Story
Prim(Rose), affectionately known as Prim, is a vibrant, young, healthy, spayed, border collie mix with a heart full of love and a mind sharp as a tack. At just shy of one year old, Prim is a bundle of energy and intelligence, showcasing the strong herding instincts that her breed is renowned for. Though she may be on the smaller side, what Prim lacks in size, she more than makes up for in spirit and agility. Prim thrives on engagement and loves to put her brilliant mind to work, making her an ideal companion for an active family that can provide her with plenty of mental and physical stimulation. Her keen intelligence means she’s a quick learner, eager to please, and ready to take on any challenge—whether it’s learning new tricks, navigating agility courses, or going on adventurous hikes. While Prim adores human companionship, her strong herding instincts make her choosey about her canine friends. While Prim loves wrestling with her doggy friends, she is not a fan of sharing any of her toys.  She would do best in a home without other dogs or with a very confident dog who can match her energy and leadership. This will allow Prim to shine as the loving and loyal companion she is meant to be, without the stress of navigating complex doggy social dynamics.   Prim is looking for a forever home that understands and appreciates the unique qualities of her breed—a family that is as active and adventurous as she is, ready to explore the world together. With the right guidance and love, Prim will not only be a faithful friend but a true member of the family, bringing joy, laughter, and lots of fun to her new home. If you’re looking for a smart, spirited, and sweet-natured dog to add to your life, Prim(Rose) is waiting to meet you.

These pups are in McKinney, Texas too!

t's me, Mo- the guy with the big blue eyes, spotted nose, and a tongue that sometimes forgets to stay in my mouth. I've been patiently waiting at my finders home, dreaming about the day I finally get my forever home.  Here is what you should know about me: I am very loveable I love people and dogs of all sizes I am fascinated by horses Car rides are the best I was abandoned and starved, so food really excites me Bully sticks are my favorite I love playing fetch I want to be taken on walks but my finder/foster has too many dogs and no time to walk me. I don't need anything fancy, just patience, kindness and a family who has time for me.  Mo is one year old and 59 lbs Kelpie mix who was found stray by a kind citizen. Months went by without an owner coming forward and now Mo is searching for a new family that can give him all the love and attention he deserves. He's house and crate trained and gets along great with other dogs and cats.  Mo is neutered, vaccinated, microchiped and heartworm negative. His adoption fee is $275.
