Check out our sister brand, Kinship, for vet chat, a nutrition calculator, basic obedience training, and (much) more. So you're never flying solo in this pet parenting thing.
I found a new home! Plenty of my friends are looking for one too. Check out other pets at this shelter, or start a new search.

Here's what the humans have to say about me:
An urgent message was forwarded to rescue groups and volunteers all over Southern California.
Someone needed to act fast. A "great and friendly dog needs out" of a local animal shelter soon ... or else.
Well, his foster parent couldn't let "... or else" happen, so that "great and friendly dog" was spared -- and really is great and friendly, as advertised -- and now awaits his forever home.
Meet Mac, an approximately 2-year-old male Border Collie mix (as listed by the shelter). He is on the smaller side, so he might be mixed with Boston Terrier or another smaller breed.
Not much is known about Mac's past as he came to the Devore shelter as a stray. We do know that Mac is as sweet as they come. He loves receiving affection from any and all humans, and he even leans into your body as if to say, "Thank you for the love and attention." He will also roll over to ask for belly rubs when he is really excited.
Mac appears to get along with all dogs, big or small. He was housed with two smaller dogs during his time at the Devore shelter, and he quickly took to his foster K9 sibling, wrestling and playing chase within minutes of meeting him.
On the car ride home, Mac was a great passenger. He would occasionally look out the window, but the majority of the time he simply curled up and hit the snooze button. He also handles decently well on a leash, but Mac could use a little more work in that department.
We are still learning about Mac, so we aren't sure if he is housebroken or knows how to use a doggy door. But Mac does appear to have an off button, as he is laying quietly at his foster parent's feet while this bio is being written.
Mac is neutered, up to date on all his shots and is microchipped. He is only missing his forever home, so act fast!
