Story
Pretty and Joy are pure bred shorthaired border collie sisters, 21 months old. Pretty is strong, and gentle. She desires to be obedient, listens and learns well. She has a strong herding instinct and would make a great working farm dog. Joy is energetic and playful. She needs more attention than Pretty and is a fun family pet. She likes playing tug and fetch, and would make a good agility dog if you wanted to teach her tricks. Both have lived outside full time with access to five acres on which they happily roam and play with our four boys. Ideally, a new home would offer lots of outdoor time and space like they are accustomed to. They could live indoors with outside time, but may not be compatible with other pets. They both play well with children and would be good as a family pet, companion, or working farm dogs. I prefer if they could go to the same family, but would be willing to re-home them separately.

Story
Me and my 2 girls adopted Hope from Sisca in March of this yr. She was 11 weeks old. She's VERY loving and hyper. We live in a townhouse and don't have a yard for to play in. We're moving to a smaller apt and I don't want to take her. I love Hope but she needs the space to run and play and we just don't have that. I don't want to get rid of our pup because we love her but I have to do what's best for her too. She is fully registered as a ESA for my daughter. Hope gets car sick so we weren't able to take many places so we just didn't take her training beyond the house. She is strong and will gladly take you for a walk. LOL she will laugh. She definitely has her own personality. Also she can eat through any toy we have bought. So that's been a challenge.

Story
Meet Tilly! She is the biggest sweetheart you’ll ever meet! My mother in law suddenly passed away and we are trying to find Tilly a great home to live out the rest of her years. She is 8 years old. She has been with her since she was a puppy. She got her from a breeder. She did go through some training as a puppy but might need some refreshers. She is 100% crate trained and house trained. I am unaware if she is up to date on shots. She needs somewhere where she can run or have a back yard to enjoy. She is great with people but she is territorial of her house and can be aggressive towards other dogs. I know in the past when she goes to the groomer she does okay there. So I am unaware if she does good with dogs outside of her home. I’m sure with some reassurance she could get along with others! She loves all the loving she can get but also likes to enjoying laying out in the sun in the backyard or chewing on a bone. If you have any questions reach out!

Story
Teddy is a small dog. He loves bones and being thrown squeaky toys. He’s very lazy and like to sleep alot because he’s older. He’s crate trained as well. He would not be good in a home with kids and other pets. He would be best suited for a single person who’s a homebody.
