Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Angus!
Angus is a 5-6 year old red and white neutered male. He was one of 6 Border Collies that came to BCRR last year from a puppy mill hoarding situation in Tennessee. All of the dogs were underfed, heartworm positive, and unsocialized.
Angus has made tremendous progress over the past year, but will always need extra patience and understanding from his forever family. He would do best with a family who enjoys a quiet home life with no small children. He doesn’t mind the cats or chickens in his foster home, but would prefer to be an only dog or possibly with one very confident, laid back doggy companion.
Angus loves his crate, and sleeps quietly all night. He doesn’t have the typical go-all-day Border Collie energy, but enjoys neighborhood walks and playtime in the backyard. He also LOVES to carry, chew, and snuggle his toys. Once he gets to know his humans, he adores cuddles on the couch, brushing, and massages. He’s done very will with house training, and only rarely has accidents indoors. He’s learning to walk on a leash, and likes exploring at his own pace in quiet settings.
Angus is about 30 lb, vaccinated, and is now heartworm negative and ready for his very special forever home. He is currently located in Central Texas.
