Story

Hi there! My name is Pip, but you can call me Pippi Dogstocking or the Pipster, both nicknames that fit my bright, bouncy personality. I’m a 3-year-old. 34# Border Collie. My first 3 years were not ideal, but believe you me, with my new family, I will live the BEST life moving forward. I’m best described as resilient, happy, playful, affectionate, energetic, and alert. My soft, cute exterior hides a busy brain – I like to keep myself occupied. My theme song is “Jump” by Van Halen, because that’s how I show my excitement about… well, everything. My favorite things? Attention tops the list, followed closely by food, toys, and games like tug and fetch. I adore my people and want to be right in the middle of whatever is happening in my home. Because of that enthusiasm, I’m still learning about personal space and tend to jump or climb into laps uninvited. Training classes will be right up my alley, though. I’m eager to please, smart, and will absolutely shine with structure and guidance. My energy level is not for the faint of heart; I’m not off the charts but need something to do with my brain and body every day. I’d love an active, herding-breed–experienced home with a fenced yard or safe place to run so I can show off my speed. People who want to take me running, try agility or dog sports or simply believe in staying busy are perfect. A feline-free home is best; cats are a bit too interesting. A playful canine sibling would be da bomb! Older kids would be ok. Because I’m still learning not to nip and jump, littles are not a good fit. I’m housebroken with supervision and crate-trained (though I may protest with FOMO). Leash leash walking is a work in progress – it’s brand new to me! I’m gaining confidence every day. I’m on the slim side right now, working to gain a few healthy pounds with good food and love. If you’re looking for a devoted, active, joyful companion who’s ready to learn and love with her whole heart, I might just be your girl. Pip is being fostered in Minneapolis, MN. APPLY TO ADOPT Pip at hoabcr.org/how-to-adopt Pip is being treated with a 30-day course of doxycycline for Lyme and Anaplasmosis. We do not expect any long-term effect from these conditions. As a foster-based rescue, we do not have a central facility to visit. Meet and greets with specific dogs are arranged once your adoption application (not an inquiry through Petfinder) has been received, processed, and approved. We are located in Minnesota and adopt to an area 400 miles from Minneapolis/St. Paul. Pip's adoption fee is $450 + MN sales tax. She will be spayed and microchipped soon: her adoption fee includes the cost for these procedures. She is up to date on age-appropriate vaccines. All of our dogs go to their new homes with a collar and harness, leash, starter food, blanket, favorite toys & treats. They are current on flea/tick and heartworm prevention.

Story

If “Here Comes the Sun” by the Beatles is your vibe, you definitely want to meet Meg, a 7 yr old, 37# Border Collie. She is the kind of dog who quietly brightens every room she enters. She’s sunshine wrapped in fur… a devoted snuggle bug, loyal shadow, and best friend all rolled into one. Meg’s favorite thing in the world is her person. She loves soft dog beds, gentle pets, and simply enjoying life together. She has calm energy and an easygoing personality perfect for a relaxed household. She would thrive in a family that enjoys daily walks around the neighborhood coupled with plenty of time together: playing or working in the yard, hanging together while her person works from home, or simply being part of everyday life. Meg is reliably housebroken and can be crated if needed, though she’s trustworthy loose in the house. She follows her people from room to room, content just to be near them. She doesn’t require a fenced yard but we know she would really enjoy having one. She is a bit timid on leash, getting better every day. Positive, upbeat encouragement means the world to her. Making people happy gives her a visible boost. She would prefer a suburban or rural home over a busy urban environment. Observing the activity from her foster home’s backyard is like TV for Meg – there’s a walking path behind the house. She takes it all in stride. Meg is suited to a home with kids roughly 10+ who have lived with dogs in the past. She would be happy as an only dog or could also enjoy a calm canine companion. Cats should be a-ok: she lived with them in her prior home. Meg is incredibly easy to live with. Gentle, loyal, and loving. If you’re searching for a steady, devoted companion who will bring warmth and peace to your life, Meg is ready to be your sunshine! Meg is being fostered in Shoreview, MN. APPLY TO ADOPT Meg at hoabcr.org/how-to-adopt As a foster-based rescue, we do not have a central facility to visit. Meet and greets with specific dogs are arranged once your adoption application (not an inquiry through Petfinder) has been received, processed, and approved.

Story

Paul is dreaming of his very own home this Christmas! He's sensitive and curious. Loving and a little unsure. Gentle. A wonderful, devoted companion looking for a quieter home with people that share his love of simple things like being outside, playing with toys and CHEESE! Cozy evenings on the couch with family.

Paul flourishes in a familiar, calm environment where he gets to spend lots of time with his people. His ideal family understands the importance of building trust with shy dogs and moves at their pace. A fenced yard is a big priority – he absolutely loves being outside in all kinds of weather, showing off his goofy, silly personality. LOVES his crate – it’s a safe space to relax. Best with adults and respectful, gentle teenagers. Paul has lovely manners with other dogs, happily interacting with canines of all sizes. MUST have a canine buddy in his new home to make him feel safe and model confident behaviors. In return, he’s a low-maintenance lifelong friend. He lives happily with cats. Once settled in a new home and bonded to his people, Paul would like to expand his world. With his family and canine sibling in tow, he will gain confidence out in the world. He will always be happiest at home.
