My story

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

Available for adoption near Birmingham, AL

Adina is a special 25 lb red-tri border collie female. She was found wandering the streets in
southern Georgia. It was apparent she had been abused either in her previous home or while
she was on her own. She is slow to trust, but with patience we are now seeing signs of trust
after four+ months. This girl just wants someone she can trust and who will love her
unconditionally.\

She loves to go on walks but can be reactive to other dogs and large or loud vehicles. She gets
along with other dogs with slow introductions but does best with male dogs. She is okay with
cats but wants to herd them. A simple reminder is all she needs to back off. She is good with
children 7 and up who know how to act around dogs. She would be happy with another male
dog who likes to play or as the only dog who gets all the attention. She does not do well at dog parks.

She loves one on one attention and will sit or lay with you to get pets. She loves to go for car rides and likes to let you know when there are trucks close to the car. She is not a big barker but has her own way of talking to you. She is a very sensitive girl and just a firm voice will make her think she is in big trouble. She knows sit, settle and come and has good recall.

She gets scared when there are thunderstorms, fireworks or loud noises but settles down if someone is with her.

Adina is house-trained but does not use a crate. She is roughly 3 ½ years old, spayed and
current on immunizations.
If this sweet girl sounds like your perfect match, please fill out our application:

There is an additional $20 microchip fee which includes registration and transfer to her new
furever family. All adoption fees are used for future rescue efforts.
