Story
APPLICATION LINK: https://shaynesrescue.com/adoption-application-pet-central-satx/
We must have an application to move forward.
Mindy is 46# and 1 yr old (DOB 11/3/2024). We feel there is some Hound in her and possibly Smooth Hair Border Collie. If you look up the "Smooth Hair Border Collie" she looks a lot like that but she is bigger so the Hound would explain that.
“The Smooth Hair Collie is a short-coated version of the Rough Collie, originally developed for herding in Scotland. They are known for their intelligence, sociable nature, and require regular exercise to stay healthy and happy. Usually 20-22" and 30-44#s.”
Mindy is 46#...and probably more like 26" tall at the shoulder.
Mindy loves to play with people and dogs. She loves playing in water… she jumps into the kid pool and lays down to enjoy the cool water (Texas gets fairly hot even in Nov). She will share a toy or stick in order to play with another dog. She is not dominant but will correct other dogs who become bullish with a short bark and the look on her face…but never aggression. She is tolerant of cats but if the cat runs the chase is on. Doing well on the leash; crate trained; potty trained. She has her moments of being a couch potato during restful times. Mindy will be good with a family and in the community.
I have attached a picture of both the rough coat and the smooth hair border collies.

Adoption Fees
The adoption fee includes transportation to WA/OR. All pups and dogs are fully vetted, spayed/neutered, microchipped, dewormed, have a negative heart worm test for all dogs over 6 months at time of transport, have a health certificate, and have all age-appropriate vaccinations. Some dogs/pups have additional medical, including but not limited to FHO, ACL, hernias, dental, and other vetting.
All medical records will be provided to the adopter at the time they pick up their dog.
HOW ABOUT FOSTERING! If you are not in the position to afford a puppy/dog but still want to be an important factor in dog rescue, we recommend fostering. Fostering ensures you incur no vet bills and no boarding fees while saving a life and enjoying the love of a canine companion. We are always in need of good fosters. You can sign up to foster at this link: https://shaynesrescue.com/foster-application/
This is a post on behalf of Pet Central SATX Rescue, headquartered in San Antonio, Texas, where there are over 350,000 homeless pets. We have hundreds of puppies/dogs available so there really is no need to apply anywhere else. Also, one application is good even if you are interested in several different dogs...one application no matter which one you choose.
Thank you for choosing to adopt a rescue pup/dog. We firmly believe there is NO breed other than "rescue" for all species. Thank you for being part of the village it takes to save these precious lives.
