My personality

My story

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

Lucy goosy goose 🪿 or at least that’s what my foster dad says when it’s time for dinner! 

Hi! My name is Lucy! I am a 5 year old female Border Collie in the DFW area, searching for my furever home…is that you?! 

I am around 40lbs, spayed and UTD on shots. 

I’m your typical BC - herdy, nerdy, active and playful! And sometimes a little quirky. 

I was an owner surrender to a Texas shelter because my owners couldn’t care for my vet bills anymore. After many tests, trials and treatments the vets were a little stumped on why I sometimes have issues digesting my food 🍲 sometimes I eat too quickly and sometimes food gives me indigestion so it comes back up. 

It doesn’t affect me much beyond some fluctuating weight and doesn’t happen all the time - see, quirky! 

My foster parents said whoever adopts me just needs to be patient and kind with me. 

I would do best as an only dog or with a four-legged friend who is playful and doesn’t mind me wanting to herd them! 

I would also do best in a home with older children because I do like to herd (I’m a border collie!) 

Maybe even an older home with someone to keep me company during the day, walks and play time! 

I am cat tested and safe, the resident cat is a little scary. 

I am crate trained, leash trained and my favourite thing in the world is to play fetch!!

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Once we have your application we will begin our screening and matching process so we can help find you a perfect match.

All Applicants are interviewed, reference checks and a home visit completed.

Once approved and you have met a dog that you would like to adopt, an adoption contract will be completed and an adoption donation of $300.00 requested to complete the adoption process.

BCR&R is totally dependent on our volunteers and foster homes, most of whom have full time careers and commitments outside of BCR&R. As a result, we work with potential adoptive families in the evenings and weekends.

More about this rescue

Border Collie Rescue & Rehab (BCR&R) is a network of volunteers and foster homes dedicated to helping save Border Collies, Border Collie mixes and other similar herding breeds.

The dogs in our program have come from shelters and the streets and we bring them into our homes and provide them with the training and love necessary to help them become valued members of a family. We call it our Rescue & Rehab Program.

All dogs are provided with necessary veterinary care and are microchipped. The dogs in our program will live with us as part of our families for a minimum of 3 to 4 weeks for evaluation and training in addition to ensuring overall health.
