My story

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

PHYSICAL FENCE PREFERRED


I am just a little thing. Commonly called a Shetland Sheepdog or Sheltie for short. Life
has not been kind to me but as most Shelties will tell you, we are a resilient lot! I was
used as a breeder and then when my usefulness ended, I was given up. The best part
is that the good folks at TriState Collie Rescue took me in!! My foster mom has worked
really hard with me to let me know that humans are good and that there are kind people
that really care about me as a sentient creature. I would love to have another
companion dog that can help to build my confidence. Plus, I’ve learned how much fun it
is to play with other dogs. Since I can startle easily, a fenced in yard is the safest for me
so I can be allowed to run and play. And cats don’t bother me one bit. Kids are ok too as
long as they understand I am still learning and gaining confidence. I am working really
hard to overcome my past and be a good girl! Are you the one that will help me finally
live my dream of being loved?!

If Lindy strikes your fancy and you are ready to help her continue to be the best Sheltie
citizen ever, please fill out an adoption application today! Don’t wait! And if Lindy isn’t
your cup of tea, we have many more Collies of all ages coming in weekly. Please visit

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.
