Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Howdy partner! My name is Duchesne, but my friends call me Dutch. I’m 1.5-years-old and I'm listed as a "collie mix" Maybe Border Collie? Could be some pointer in me, too! I am full grown at 45 pounds. I made my way from the Uintah Basin where I lived outside, and boy, do I love the indoor life now! Humans are great to have around, and I’ve learned to appreciate their company. I enjoy snuggles at bedtime, but otherwise, cuddles are on my terms for now. I get along wonderfully with other dogs, love chasing balls, and value my alone time. I am still working on learning all the good dog things, but I'm doing *amazing*. In fact, foster mom started taking me to training classes and guess what?! I just GRADUATED my "Bright Beginnings" class! That means I've gone all the way thru a 6-week course already! So now I know all kinds of things! I'm even completely potty trained and crate trained, already! I was very shy and timid when I first got here, and training has made a big difference in building my confidence. I would love to keep it up with my forever family! I haven’t lived with cats, but they don’t seem to interest me much. Now, chickens and birds? I definitely notice them, and I'm interested! I can yodel and point to let you know when I’ve spotted them! I would love a family of my own, preferably with older children (12+) since the younger ones can be a bit scary for me. A fenced yard to run in would be perfect, and if you’re an active outdoor person, that’s a huge plus. My mind needs activity! I’m still working on my leash skills, but I’m making progress. If you’re looking for a smart, adventurous, and loving companion, look no further—Duchesne, or Dutch, is your guy! apply to meet today : @https://bit.ly/RRAdoptionApplication Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.March 18, 2025, 6:16 pm
