Story
🐾💙 Meet Finn — Your Thoughtful Trail Buddy 💙🐾 Finn is a 6-year-old purebred Border Collie with soulful eyes and a heart full of quiet devotion. This handsome boy is looking for a peaceful home where he can truly shine. 🏡 Finn is house trained, kennel trained, and walks beautifully on leash. He’s been working hard on calmly passing other dogs on walks and would be the perfect hiking or walking companion for someone who enjoys a little adventure with a loyal shadow. 🧠 True to his breed, Finn is smart, intuitive, and deeply connected to his people. He thrives in a calm, consistent home and prefers to be the only dog. He’s great with cats and older children but isn’t a match for loud, chaotic households or young kids. 🎯 Loud noises like gunshots startle him, so a quieter, rural, or suburban setting would suit him best. Finn isn’t high maintenance—he just wants a person to bond with and a peaceful space to relax in. If you’ve been searching for a steady, affectionate companion who will reward your patience with unwavering loyalty, Finn may be your perfect match. 💙 If interested in adopting one of our available pets, please fill out an application at https://www.cognitoforms.com/DixieGirl1/PetAdoptionApplicationForm2 Most of our are pets are fostered in Southern foster homes and are posted for adoption once they are completely vetted and ready to travel.

🏆Major🏆 This handsome boy is Major, he is the best boy and the life of the party! 🎉 Major is around two years old and is a most likely a border collie / lab mix (a Borador). Major is very smart and is already house trained. He is great with other dogs and loves everyone he meets. 😊 Major needs room to play and he is looking for a big fenced in yard to run off his energy and play endless games of fetch. He would make the perfect family dog or bestie for an active compile. If you are interested in learning more about Major, please submit an adoption application. This guy checks all the boxes for being the best boy and can’t wait to meet his forever family. ❤️ If interested in adopting one of our available pets, please fill out an application at https://www.cognitoforms.com/DixieGirl1/PetAdoptionApplicationForm2 Most of our are pets are fostered in Southern foster homes and are posted for adoption once they are completely vetted and ready to travel.

Story
Meet Sheesh, a one-year-old pup whose unique personality perplexed her foster mom until she received the breed results — border collie and Labrador retriever!  Sheesh’s hobbies are all lab. She loves playing fetch and brings the ball back consistently.  Sheesh also loves water and will go towards any source of water, whether it’s coming from a sprinkler in the neighborhood or running in a creek. She loves being outside in the rain and isn’t afraid of getting all wet. She’s so calm and easy during baths that her foster mom still bathes her in the kitchen sink even though she’s much too big for it now at 45 lbs full grown.  The border collie in Sheesh is also very apparent in how intelligent and obedient she is. Sheesh follows instructions without the need for a treat. She’ll come when you call her name and go to her crate when told to. She’s very smart and learns new skills quickly. She also has some herding tendencies and can get very focused on things like a squirrel in the yard. She’s of course energetic, but does take plenty of naps throughout the day.  Sheesh will do best in an active home with owners who want to take her on long morning walks. Sheesh loves her walks, but she can get a little too excited by other excitable dogs she encounters. She will need someone willing to work with her on this, possibly with a trainer’s help. Sheesh is very redirectable and responsive if the person walking her knows what to do.  Sheesh has been in her foster home since July 2024 and is fully potty trained, crate trained and has zero separation anxiety. She’s super friendly, happy and loving, and is friends with all the dogs in her foster home. There’s not a mean bone in her body. She even shows remarkable patience with small puppies, letting them climb all over her and chew on her beautiful, fluffy tail. Although she’s not perfect, Sheesh is a special young dog who will bring great joy to her forever family.”

Just take a look at these sweet babies! There are 5 of these Collie/Aussie mixes! Adorable! Every single one! They are 3 months old, weigh 7 to 10 pounds and will mature to 45 to 50. Their names are Katniss, Peeta, Finnick, Effie, and Primrose and they're all sweet, playful and a bit silly. Their pregnant Mama, a tripod, was found on the street.

Sammy is a wonderful Australian Shepard. He is very sweet. He seems to have been abused by a male. So, it takes him a while to get close to people, particularly men. Just be patient and loving and he will return the love. Sammy has been with Sandy, a female Australian Shepard that looks like him, all his life and the two need to stay together.
