Story
Looking for a new home for this cute puppy. Summer is 3years old. July 22nd, 2021 is her birthday. Due to our living conditions change a lot, and family member’s allergies getting worse. We decided to rehome her. She is a pure breed border collie. Before you decide to adopt her, please keep those things in mind: 1. You have to walk her at least two times per day. 30 mins per walk. 2. You have to know how to deal with border collie’s herding instincts. 3. She is a very sensitive dog, scares of all kinds of noises, such as traffic, garbage bags, big trucks, etc. 4. Please love her. 5. Farm owners are welcome. Or house owners who have big backyard.

All of our dogs are spayed/neutered, shots current (DHPP, Bordetella and Rabies where applicable), dewormed, flea and tick treated, and microchipped.  * If you are interested in a dog, please first read the biography on the dog (keep scrolling down for the bio!) and then go to our website, www.dpsrescue.com for an application. Our adoption fees vary. Each biography will specifically list the adoption fee.This dog will be at Palo Alto Pet Food Express on Saturday, October 5th from 12-3pm or until adopted. If you would like the first opportunity to adopt, please fill out an application to be considered.   Adoption Fee: $700   Sunflower is a 1 year old Border Collie mix who is ready to bloom in her forever home! Sunflower was rescued from the shelter when they reached out for assistance due to overcrowding. We happily took her in and it’s been sunshine ever since. This gorgeous gal weighs 39 pounds and has an absolutely gorgeous coat. She is ready for a lifetime of nature hikes and adventures with her lucky forever people! If you’re ready for some fall blooms, adopt sweet Sunflower today!      Sunflower is a loving, playful, joyful gal who is as smart as she is adorable! This girl was shy at first but quickly blossomed into a fun-loving, happy dog! She is super smart and alert, always loyally following her people around. She loves her toys, eagerly learning new tricks while keeping an eye on her favorite toy. Sunflower would be a fabulous addition to an active home looking for an adventure companion. If you have a bucket list of dog-friendly activities, Sunflower is the perfect pup to bring along! Sunflower is the perfect Border Collie, she will faithfully follow her people anywhere they want to go, but she is also content to keep herself occupied when she needs to. What a dream girl! She also has a bright smile and a personality that brightens any room she enters. Sunflower also has a joyous playful bark that she lets out when her tail wags and she gets ready for a game of catch. You’ll want to spend all your time playing with her! Sunflower can’t wait to bring a lifetime of love to her new people!  Sunflower starts her morning at 8 AM with breakfast and a snuggle. She then either spends some time playing in the backyard or heads out on a walk. As her foster people get ready for the day, she plays some more with her toys and checks out the nature tv (the window). After a morning nap, she spends some more time in the yard and playing inside the house. She snoozes some more until her foster parents come home. She heads out on a sunset walk around 6 PM and then comes home for dinner. She hangs out on the couch as she unwinds from the day, loving on her people. After one last potty break, she settles in for the night at 10 PM.  Sunflower gets along with other dogs and is figuring out this whole “playtime” thing. She loves people and can befriend anyone she meets. Sunflower is well trained already, she picked up “sit”, “down”, and “stay” quickly with her foster people. She walks well on a leash and loves her walks. Sunflower is ready to find the forever home that will show her all the love she deserves. If you’re looking for your new best friend, you’ve found her with Sunflower!      Sunflower is an option for homes with prior dog owning experience. Kids in the home should be over the age of 9.October 5, 2024, 4:30 am

If you would like the first opportunity to adopt, please fill out an application to be considered.   Adoption Fee: $700   Zero is a 1-2 year old Border Collie mix looking for his Jack Skellington! This handsome boy was scooped up from the shelter when his former home realized they weren’t ready for the activity level of the breed. We zoomed over and picked Zero up, quickly realizing how much he looked like everyone’s favorite Nightmare Before Christmas character! Zero weighs around 35 pounds and he has the softest coat in the entire world. We can’t gush about Zero enough, he’s truly incredible! Zero can’t wait to find a family ready to show him the world as he shows off his handsomeness and happiness! If you’re ready for the adventure of a lifetime, bring home our very own Zero today!       Zero is a handsome and happy dude who can’t wait to find his forever home to take on adventures with! Like his fictional counterpart, Zero is the happiest guy in his neighborhood. He is always ready for an adventure, whether to another holiday or to the local park for some zoomies. Zero, like his fellow Border Collies, is super smart and a total foodie. He is happy to chomp on apples, carrots, or any treat you want to share with him. Zero is always ready for a belly rub and is often found splayed on his back as he attempts to give kisses as you scratch him. He is the best companion for anything you have on the agenda. If you’re ready for a movie marathon, Zero is building the pillow fort. Headed to the beach or on a new trail? Zero is preparing the electrolyte bottles! Looking to check out the latest dog-friendly breweries? As long as they have snacks on the menu, Zero is totally in! Zero has been a total joy in his foster home and has truly shown them how to find the joy in everything. It’s hard to believe that a dog this fabulous and handsome can be as loving and wonderful as he is, but he’s shown us that it’s possible for a dog to be the perfect ten! Don’t let this handsome hunk slip by without bringing him home!  Zero starts his morning around 8 AM with a trip outside to potty before he comes inside for a belly rub and a treat! He gets his breakfast at 9 AM and then heads out on his first walk of the day with his foster siblings. He loves hanging out in the yard and spends a few hours every day sniffing every nook and cranny of his backyard. Zero gets a snack in the afternoon and then spends a few hours napping while his foster dad finishes his workday. Around 5 PM, Zero heads out on another walk followed by a long play session in the yard with his foster siblings and his ever-expanding pile of toys. He has his dinner at 6 PM and then gets his zoomies out in the yard. Zero starts to wind down around 8 PM in front of the TV. After one last potty, he goes to bed at 10 PM.  Zero lives with several dogs of varying sizes in his foster home and gets along fabulously with all of them. He loves meeting new people and has even been to several dog-friendly restaurants! He walks well on a leash and is always down to check out a new trail or park. Zero is working on his house training but he is crate trained. Zero would love to find an active family that is looking for a companion to explore all that California has to offer with. This smart cookie will show you that he is as handsome as he is loving, and we know that he will blow you away with how much love he has for you! Don’t let this spooky season pass you by without bringing home a Zero of your very own!     Zero is an option for homes with prior experience with active dogs. Kids in the home should be over the age of 9. October 5, 2024, 4:30 am

Watson is a 10 month old neutered male border collie mix weighing 40lbs. He was one from a group of pups that were abandoned by an airport and left completely starving/emaciated. He’s healed up and turned into a thriving, happy, and social dog! He is doing well with housebreaking and crate training but still needs to build some confidence and life skills, but he loves other dogs and people and would do really great in a home with another dog! He does seem to be deaf but is very responsive to routine, hand signals, wants to please, and is a quick learner.  Please contact Diana at (510) 333-4420 or theperfectdogrescue@gmail.com or fill out the adoption application:  http://www.theperfectdog.org/TPDadoptapp.doc September 6, 2024, 7:02 pm
