Story
Scout is almost 3 yrs old, neutered male Border Collie weighing 38 lbs. Scout is a wonderful, happy, bouncy little boy who’s eager for human interaction. His original parents could no longer take care of him due to health issues, and his new home cannot provide him the personal attention he needs to thrive. He lives with dogs smaller and larger than he and gets along very well with all, even the cats. He also lives with chickens which he doesn’t chase…except the first time he saw them! During food time, he waits until he’s invited in to eat and does so around the other dogs without issue. While I can put my hand in his food while he eats, he bares his teeth at the other dogs if they approach. He’s been around toddlers, though he was wary. We feel he would do best in a home with older children or no children. Scout is up for adoption because we want to improve his life. Beyond jumping and getting in your face when you bend over he has no behavior issues. He’s a really sweet dog who will certainly flourish with proper guidance and direction: he’s SUPER eager to please and strongly desires to bond. Scout’s ideal home would be active and engaging to fulfill his natural BC traits to have a job and follow direction from his person: it would be wonderful for him to use his natural instincts to work on a farm. He needs a job and he needs more structure. We need to find him HIS person. He loves to swim in the pond in the summer and to have snow shoveled on him in the winter. He also loves to be groomed, and allows us to use trimmers on his fur and handle his paws. And to be picked up and held like a baby that’s his favorite. Warning: he has a history of running after cars so applicants must be able to address this.
