Story
A COMPLETED APPLICATION IS REQUIRED BEFORE ANY CONVERSATION ABOUT ADOPTING FROM OUR ORGANIZATION.  PLEASE GO TO OUR WEBISTE AT www.colliesheltierescue.org AND READ ABOUT THE BASIC REQUIREMENTS (GOOD PHONE INTERVIEW,  SECURELY FENCED YARD, FABULOUS REFERENCE FROM YOUR VETERINARIAN AND A HOME VISIT.)  I KNOW THAT SOUNDS LIKE A LOT BUT WE SCREEN CAREFULLY FOR THE SAKE OF THE DOGS.  THEY DESERVE IT! This little Sheltie friend was named Thistle in a local shelter.  Thistle is approximately 7-8 years old, a neutered male and UTD on all vaccines.  He is basically a shy little fellow, although he does warm up, especially to women.  He needs a dental but we need to wait for a month or two since he just had a general anesthetic for his neuter.  But he needs the dental cleaning, with extractions to be sure, and we cover all the expenses.   Shelties are shy by nature, as I bet you already know.  All five of the Shelties from this latest hoarder confiscation lacked early socialization.  That is evident.  Four of the five Shelties are young adults and coming around quickly.  Thistle will take more time and patience.  He is eating well now with some yummies in his bowl on top of the kibble.  He drinks appropriately and is peeing and pooping outside in a kennel since he has not got the hang of walking on a leash yet.  But today, he sat in the warm sunshine with his favorite volunteer, with his head on her lap.  I thought he might begin to purr. Sheltie experience is critical for the successful placement of Thistle.  Adults who are home most of the time would be great also.  Companionable adult dogs to show him the ways of the force and where to go potty.  School age children might be too noisy and disruptive for this senior gentleman's wishes.  Have questions?  We have answers. Please consider adding a senior dog to your household.  You will get extra sparkles in your halo for giving an older dog the chance of a lifetime.      Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.February 1, 2026, 6:30 pm

Eleanor is the quintessential fabulous dog from your childhood that is in your heart forever.  We don't know what combination of breeds are in Eleanor and it does not matter.  There is Collie, for sure.  At 64#, she is the right size to put your arms around and hug.  She is gentle and playful and active and cuddly.  She is everything that a family would want to be their lifetime companion.  Eleanor is a healthy and happy 4-year-old spayed female that is UTD on vaccines, microchipped and ready to fall in love.  She lost her home when her family lost their home and had to move to an apartment where life got too complicated.  Ellie has known nothing but love her entire life and we will make sure that continues forever.  As you can see from the photos, she is a straight- forward kiddo.  She will look into your eyes and clear through to your soul.  She is used to being wherever her humans are.  That includes on the couch, in an armchair and tucked into your bed or a nearby dogbed.  She would be sad if she could not be an "armpit dog", that is always that close. She loves men, women and children.  Great with other dogs and cats.  Housebroken.  A little anxious in the car, at least initially.  Good heavens!  What else could anyone want?? Successful candidates should have lots of herding dog experience.  And you just might have a next best friend.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.February 9, 2026, 5:08 pm
