Story
Come visit me at PAW - Adoption fee $450 - Collieflower is a 3½-year-old Border Collie boy with a bright mind, a big heart, and a snout that’s always leading him toward his next great adventure. This handsome guy is eager to please and even more eager to be involved in everything—whether it’s a hike, a game, a job, or just sticking that curious nose into whatever you’re doing. As a classic Border Collie, Collieflower is an active, energetic, and incredibly smart cookie. He thrives on mental and physical stimulation, so puzzle toys, training games, long walks, and plenty of playtime will keep him at his happiest. He’ll also need regular grooming to keep his beautiful coat looking its best. Collieflower is a social butterfly who’s excited to meet people of all ages. With slow and proper introductions, he can do well with calm dogs and even cats—his sweet nature and desire to learn make him a wonderful companion in the right environment. And when it comes to training? This treat-motivated guy is ready to show off how quickly he picks things up. If you’re looking for a loyal, lively friend who’s always up for joining your next activity, Collieflower is ready to trot right into your life—and your heart. - Collieflower`s new owners will need to take him for a groom as he needs one.

Story
Come visit me at PAW - Adoption fee $450 - Meet Sadie! Sadie is an exuberant young lady at just 1 year old. She is full of life and love and cannot wait to go on all of those exciting adventures with you. She is eager to please and will do just about anything for a yummy treat. Which will make training her a lot easier. She can be quite pully and strong on a leash and very jumpy. That is only because she wants to give you face kisses immediately upon meeting and cannot wait to sniff the next thing in line. A harness or a martingale collar would be wonderful for a dog like Sadie as well as some manners. But it isn`t like she doesn`t know anything though! She does know how to sit, shake, and she`s halfway to learning roll over! Sadie is looking forward to playing with you all day, going for long walks, and is up for any new adventure. She would be a good candidate for another hyperactive, rambunctious pup that doesn`t mind making new friends, however she will need to do a meet and greet before going home to ensure the vibes are there. Sadie can`t wait to meet you! - Sadie would do best in a home with no cats, and no young kids.
