Meet sweet Ali! Ali is a year old, beautiful Border Collie that was surrendered to us when her owner could no longer care for her. Ali's owner bought her when she was 8 weeks old. She injured herself and suddenly it seemed as though her owner had no time for her. We are not exactly sure how Ali injured herself, but her owner declined care at his vet's office. We were told by the owner that she was healed and running around as usual without any issues. The owner tried rehoming Ali himself, but he had no luck. He started calling around to see what his options may be and looked into possible euthanasia for Ali. One of our foster volunteers was contacted by one of our vet partners and we immediately took action to get Ali into our care. Upon meeting Ali, we noticed that she was not able to put weight on one of her legs. While we knew this injury could end up needing a costly surgery, we could not turn our backs on this sweet girl. Ali was shy when we first met her. She would crouch close to the ground and slither into your arms to give kisses. Our hearts melted. Once in her foster home, she immediately became comfortable and attached herself to her foster mom and dad. Ali seemed to know that she was now safe and loved. She was taken to the vet the next day and we found out that she needs hip surgery. Her surgery is scheduled and she will soon have a pain free hip. She will then go through an eight to twelve week recovery period with her foster family. Once cleared, she will be able to run and play just as a year old puppy should be able to.
Ali is a sweet girl with so much love to give. She gets along well with other dogs. She loves people! She is extremely friendly. Keep in mind that she is a "working" dog and will need a home that is familiar with the breed and their needs. She may develop "herding" tendencies. ***She will not be available for adoption until she is cleared by the vet and fully recovered.*** We expect to receive a high volume of applications for Ali, so if you are interested in Ali, please fill out the application in its entirety to be considered.
Ali is spayed, up to date with her vaccines, microchipped and housebroken.
