Chino

Border Collie Alaskan Malamute

Male, Adult

Fillmore, CA

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Chino is a good dog for the right home, but he has two flaws: he doesn't care to share an environment with any other dogs, and he can escape from almost any confinement. Since we like Border Collies in general, and since he was "overdue" at his animal shelter one day when we were there picking up another dog, he was also chosen and saved. We quickly learned that the part of Chino that is not Border Collie is probably one of the tundra breeds like Malamute, because we had to fully enclose every inch of his kennel to keep him in. (This was after he escaped from four previous attempts to kennel him.) The good news is that after escaping he only wanted to stay by the side of his human friends here at the rescue, so he'll need a pretty much constant human companion. Chino is about 3 years old and weighs about 80 pounds.

Blissy

Border Collie German Shepherd Dog

Female, Young

Fillmore, CA

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Good with dogs, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Blissy is a 1-year-old (as of February 1, 2024) mixed breed pup whose owner had to relinquish her due to incompatibility with her other female dog, the "alpha" dog in the home. Blissy did well with the two male dogs, and in our experience here she has done well with another female that is not a dominant girl. We think she is probably Shepherd-Border Collie or some such mix, and she's incredibly smart. Blissy "play-nips" gently when excited, which makes us think Border Collie or some other herding breed may be in her gene pool. She's mostly housebroken, knows many commands (typically having to be told only once), aims to please, and loves long walks. Her ex-owner says Blissy "is an absolutely wonderful dog" whom she will greatly miss.

Incredibly sweet, sensitive and sometimes shy, she will quickly steal your heart. You can see the depth of her soul buried in her eyes and in the way she looks at you. Lizzy wants to make you her everything and craves getting that loyalty in return. Another layer of her personlity is her intelligence. She has mastered many of the basics and is eager to learn and to please. Inside a home she has done well, however due to her extended stay at the shelter she will need someone who is patience and understanding while she decompresses. Lizzy would most likely do best in a quiet home without a bunch of people in and ou or small children. She will sometimes gets excited on walks when she sees other dogs or bicycles on walks, but is generally easily redirected with vocal commands and a treat. In playgroups at the shelter she has not enjoyed the company of other dogs and would do best in a home free of other pets. Her favorite pastime is playing fetch in a yard followed by some snuggles and maybe a bone to chew on. She is also a great hiking buddy, ready to take on any challenge. With an endless amount of love to give, Lizzy will be a once and a lifetime dog to her new family.

FALCON

Australian Cattle Dog

Male, 8 yrs

Goleta, CA

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Meet FALCONQuiet gentle Falcon is part of a bonded pair with Olsa, who is most likely his daughter. They were left behind when the family moved away, and found themselves in our shelter, sad and confused. But they have each other and that seems to make all the difference! They have been in foster care for several months and are doing very well there.Falcon is about ten years old and about 53 pounds. He is a sweet gentle soul who doesn`t wanna cause any trouble. He loves going on walks around the neighborhood but otherwise is just happy to hang out. He is not fit enough for hikes or long walks however.The two of them are so easy that anybody who wants dogs that make few demands but are good company would be lucky to have these two. They are crate trained and love going on car rides as well and of course they are housebroken. They do great with other dogs and seemed scared when they met a cat. They are gentle with children.Falcon is extremely shy when he first meets people so you need to give him a chance to warm up to you. He will need multiple meetings and a patient person to give him time to build trust, and would need a gradual transition to a new home. Once he does, he will worship you and give you his absolute loyalty, seeking you out for affection and attention. He walks gently on leash but can be frightened by strangers approaching so he would need to be allowed to keep his distance.Olsa and Falcon are very attached to each other, and need to go together to a home with a secure yard and a patient family who will let them settle in and build trust at their own pace. The reward is two dogs who are affectionate, obedient, quiet, and easy to have around!
