My story

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

Jolene’s got nothin’ on our Dolly!! Dolly knows this, and at a young 7 years old she is ready to complete her journey. Dolly is a beautiful lady that is particular about just who she wants in her life. She is fine with cats, and has lived with them previously. She is equally ok with older children that are savvy in dog behavior and dog language.

Dolly came in with a massive coat. Several grooming sessions and lots of effort was put into saving her coat but sadly she had to be shaved. It was the best decision for her own health. It is starting to grow back and we are hoping it will come back healthy and shiny now that she has good nutrition (and lots of love from her Foster family)!

Dolly loves to eat, and she is a little thicker than she should be. She will need a home with a diet conscious family that is willing to help Dolly achieve that girly figure we all want. She is very smart and eager to learn and will do anything for a cheese snack. Dolly would thrive in an active household, and does not necessarily need another canine companion. She will share her playtime with other pups, but her meal and space are hers. She has not had much primping or pampering in her short life, so she is just learning that being fussed over is a good thing. Dolly needs patience and love to become the sweetheart Collie she was always destined to be. Are you her special person that will show her how wonderful life is??

Dolly is being fostered in Michigan

More about this rescue

WHO WE ARE:

TRI STATE COLLIE RESCUE VOLUNTEERS have been professional breeders and dog show exhibitors, and we have more then 50 years of combined professional experience with the collie breed. In addition, our group includes devoted collie owners and lovers. We are listed as a recognized rescue group with the COLLIE CLUB OF AMERICA

OUR MISSION:

To end the indiscriminate breeding practices of irresponsible breeders, to educate the public about the lifetime responsibilities of caring for a pet, including the necessity of spaying and neutering, and to promote the return of undying love and devotion collies offer their owners. Too many purebred collies are found as strays, in dog shelters, or in the humane societies. We hope to eliminate the euthanasia of these collies.
