Story
Everyone meet Merle, a 2 year male old border collie mix. Merle is a super sweet and loving border collie mix who loves his people. Merle needs room to run and would be best suited for a home with a big yard. Merle came to us as a medical dog with a big gash on the side of neck. He is all healed up and took the injury in stride. Merle loves to play with other dogs but much prefers people but would love a dog brother or sister The following must-have's for Merle -big fenced yard -patience for a young dog mind -time -herding dog experience -active -home often Bonus: another dog to play with No on the following; condos or town homes ex Merle is on the lankier side for a border collie..but still only weighs about 40 lbs or so. He does have young dog energy and does need to learn some manners but it's all good natured. He would also be best suited for someone that can handle a medium/large dog. He is very eager to please and bonds deeply with his people. Loves all people and most dogs he meets! Merle loves car rides, is good on leash, a gentlemen in public and just an all-around good dog. He does have some separation anxiety but once in a routine, it gets much better. Crate training is recommended as he loads up in the crate with ease. Merle is healthy, neutered, chipped and all up-to-date on vaccines If he sounds perfect for you, please fill out our application: https://www.australianshepherdsfurever.org/adoption-application There is an additional $20 microchip fee which includes registration and transfer to his new furever family.

Story
Traka is a 1-2 year old 40lbs spayed border collie who is great with other dogs and people! She came to us with a broken leg, but her leg is  healed and she’s ready to go. This girl is HIGH DRIVE! She’s very busy and needs someone who understands the breed and will provide her with an outlet. She has high prey drive, so please no cats, and she wants to bark at and chase livestock, and anything, anyone that moves lol. No aggression, just barky/frustrated. She LOVES toys and loves to play, and plays well with other dogs too! But she has finally learned how to settle down in a crate too and is great in the car. She is a beautiful and really fun dog, but needs someone who understands the breed and will work with her. She’s been to a herding lesson in Wilton (near Sac) and definitely has the drive for herding work, just needs rules and fine tuning with someone who knows what they’re doing (or willing to learn with lessons).  Please contact Diana at (510) 333-4420 or theperfectdogrescue@gmail.com or fill out the adoption application:  http://www.theperfectdog.org/TPDadoptapp.doc December 18, 2024, 1:03 pm

Story
Snow is a 3 year old border collie mix and has a sweet, silly, and very playful personality! Snow is a super active dog, she loves going to the park, playing fetch with her favorite ball, and gets along well with other dogs ( loves to chase and be chased). When you come home don’t be surprised if she brings you a toy to play! When it’s time to relax and unwind, you can bet Snow will be right by your side. We are looking for a new home for her due to issues with our landlord. We hope that her new home gives her the love, attention, and care she deserves. She’s an absolute love bug at heart, and the sweetest companion that will always be by your side. Snow has gone through a fair amount of training (basic and advanced training at Petco, certifications will be provided) and knows commands such as: sit, wait, down, leave it, heel, shake. We hope her new home gives her as much love as she has to offer! 🩷

Story
This is a courtesy posting.  SYLSVESTER is at the Kern County Shelter (Bakersfield, CA).  If you are in the Bay Area and could foster him, reach out to us.  This shy sweet little 30lb Border Collie has had quite the adventure of late.  He was at an adoption event when he decided to try to find his own way home(!)  He was lost for a month, but is now found and back at the very full shelter.  He needs a foster, adopter, or rescue ASAP as they are over full and euthanizing for space :(  Here's his shelter bio from his Doggie Day Out: Sylvester is a shy boy, but so so affectionate. He takes his time to open up, but once he does he’s a sweet and bubbly puppy. He does well with other dogs and would be good with dog-savvy children who know to give him time and space. We did not encounter any cats today. Sylvester, at 10mo old, has had an unsettled life so far. He was adopted but landed back at the shelter due to no fault of his own (original adopters moved). Then he was lost for an entire month.  He is SO ready to find his true forever family now. The ideal adopter would be patient and willing to go slow and help Sylvester realize the world isn’t as scary as he may think. Someone who can help get him build his confidence. Sylvester rides great in the car, doesn’t pull on the leash, and catches treats. He tilts his head so cute when you make kissy noises and whistle at him. He likes being sweet talked and always wiggles the end of his tail. This sweet boy so wants a home to call his own. Here is the link to his full facebook Doggie Day Out posting with lots of videos of him: https://www.facebook.com/groups/174291565419949/permalink/514755381373564/ Shelter contact info: Kern County Animal Services 3951 Fruitvale Avenue Bakersfield, CA 93308 Mon thru Sat 10am - 4pm Wed (open late) 2pm - 7pm dogfoster@kerncounty.com / 661-868-7130 rescue@kerncounty.com / 661-549-4355 animalservices@kerncounty.com / 661-868-7120application, home visit, adoption feeDecember 4, 2024, 6:30 pm

Story
Meet Honeysuckle!-4 month old male border collie x pyrenees mix!-Anticipated to be an XL sized dog (likely between 80 and 100lbs!). At four months old they are currently the same size as their mother-Surrendered to the Shelter after previous guardian was unable to continue caring for-Previously lived in a home with their mother dog, father dog, chickens, sheep and horses-When strangers would come over, they would bark to alert that they were there but then would become friendly and affectionate. This behavior can be fairly typical for livestock guardian breed dogs but may not be a great fit for all types of households. -Has seen other dogs in the property and would bark to alert that they were there but then would warm up and got along nicely-Has seen cats on the property and would bark and growl at them, seeming to be fearful of them-Outdoors only in previous home. Will need patience in the transition into their new home as a lot of human-centric things are new to them such as walking on a leash and house trainingNow through December 23rd – the Santa Cruz County Animal Shelter is hosting “Home for the Holidays”. This adoption event reduces the adoption fee for all cats, rabbits and dogs to $50. Please note: Our Santa Cruz location’s Shelter hours are 11-6pm, 7 days a week! Although clients can walk through and see any animals in their kennels during open hours, we end “meet and greets” (aka meeting an animal out of the kennel) at 4:30pm every day. If you’d like to meet an animal out of the kennel, please arrive before 4:00pm to allow for time to discuss individual animals and meet them.
