My personality

My story

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

Beautiful Bristol is about 5 mo old and already weighs approx 30lbs. We expect her to weigh about 50lbs or so when she’s full grown. She is clearly a Border Collie, although according to dna, she is mixed with Australian Shepherd and a few other breeds. Typical of her breeds, she is a very intelligent puppy that learns exceedingly quick when you’re trying teach her new commands and manners. She does still need more training so an experienced person that will continue her training is required to help her become a well mannered k9 citizen. Although she is an active girl that thrives on her daily playtime and exercise, she is also a cuddly girl so lots of affection and cuddles will be a must. She loves to run and explore so she also must have a 5ft or higher, securely fenced yard. She is wonderful with other dogs, although she doesn’t need a k9 pal in the home as long as she has plenty of play dates. She does not seem to have strong herding instincts so kids over 6yrs old would be fine. She now even gets along great with the kitties, Confident, dog savvy cats are best. She is not yet old enough for her spay surgery so it will be scheduled at the time of adoption.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Interested adopters should email info@k9rr.org to request an application. Once complete, the application can be returned via email and quickly reviewed. If approved, we then invite potential adopters to visit with one or more of the dogs that interest them. If the meet and greet goes well, we encourage a week long "trial adoption" to ensure a good match. During that week we communicate often and are available for support and guidance, via phone or email, 24/7.

Unless otherwise specified, K9 R&R adoption fees range from $350-$500 and include all vetting and microchip. We also provide ongoing training tips and help as needed, for the life of the dogs.

K9 R&R is a non-profit, volunteer based organization.

More about this rescue

K9 R&R rescues dogs from shelters and other various facilities across the nation, but focusing primarily on those throughout the west coast. In addition, we help re-home family pets of owners who can no longer care for them. K9 R&R assesses and works with every dog prior to adopting them out and continues to provide support to adopters for the entire life of the dog. K9 Rescue & Rehab was founded with the desire to provide a more thorough, inclusive, supportive approach to dog rescue and re-homing. When adopting a K9 R&R dog, you are not only adding a new family member, but are becoming part of an extended family that is always there to support you in hard times and celebrate with you in joyful ones.
