My personality

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Murphy is a super friendly guy who is looking for a great home. He loves walks and car rides, belly rubs, holding paw/hands, kisses and hugs. He so wants and needs a person/family to bond with.
Murphy is a 2 year old neutered male Border Collie medium rough coat rose ears brown eyes. UTD on all vaccinations and treatments, vet heath checked, is heartworm negative and on monthly preventative. Murphy.is housebroken, crate trained, pretty good on a leash, people friendly with no gender preference. Is other dog friendly with proper introductions, cat curious but does not chase. Barks when excited otherwise quiet and calm. Does not show separation anxiety nor thunderstorm sensitivity. Medium energy level and knows how to and enjoys relax time. He loves walks and car rides, does not display motion sickness and is calm during rides. Is is super friendly wants to bond and join with a family. Is stranger friendly so no need to crate him for company. Is children friendly. Sleeps calmly through the night. Does not fuss, is not a chewer. is no a counter surfer, is not a jump up on you unless allowed in excitement. Very playful is toy driven. Has a wonderfully personality with a funny goofy side. Very smart and learns quickly, I have taught him a few tricks. Eager to please. Doesn't quite know the name I have given him yet and needs work on a reliable recall. He shows no aggression to objects or people. Murphy is not food bowl. or toy or object aggressive and presents no guarding issues. He is quite a delightfully nice fellow and a joy to be around.

Additional adoption info

Our Adoption Fees vary according to a percentage of the medical expenses paid for that individual and general care. Pre-Adoption applications via email are needed before scheduling your meet and greet. We request a reference letter from your Veterinarian on business letterhead displaying your address and phone number. All adopted animals are Spayed/Neutered and UTD on shots and treatments. Unless clarified otherwise. Being a Border Collie Breed Rescue we do require some knowledge of the breed's temperament, characteristics, and needs. If you are new to the breed we do suggest that you research to make sure that this breed is right for you. For those others that have been blessed with sharing their life with a Border Collie, you already know the wonder of this breed.

Go meet their pets

Choosing a new Family Member takes time and we do not rush our adoption process. Our aim is to make the perfect match for a lifetime of percious memories. Scheduled Adoption Days and Meet and Greets are by appointment either week days or weekends here at Indian Summers Rescue. Please call or email to schedule your appointment to meet one of the Summers BC Gang...they are a Great Group of Rescues each looking for an equally great forever home. While here you can also meet the Summers BC Shelter Gang many of whom are living with cancer. When you say that word to a dog they just smile up at you and wag their tail. We don't tell them they are sick and they live each heartbeat to the fullest.
