Story

Stella (still available!) is a 4.5yr female Border Collie ~40lbs, chipped, fixed, crate trained. She's seeking a very experienced human who loves a pup project! Stella is a very fun & active yet pup. She is sensitive, thrives in a structured, calm, ADULT ONLY home. She would enjoy a human who works from home or someone who has experience in behavioral training! Prefer a home with no chaos/loud noises. She's independent, preferring play time over cuddles(though she does love to give kisses to those she loves!). She can get anxious and wants to take control in some situations. Her temporary foster & her trainer have been working with her anxiety/aggression and seeing great progress! With lots of energy, she seeks a human who loves to run, walk, and play a LOT. She LOVES trick training, and learns games quickly! Cats might be ok (she's learning now), no dogs(she's learning now to interact more appropriately with dogs!), NO kids (they stress her too much). Foster to adopt can be an option.

Story

Hello. Malu is a very good dog with no behavior issues beyond barking. He is loving and likes to lean against you. He is definitely food-motivated and will do great in a home with activity. He is calm when hanging out. He loves to run, but also enjoys laying in the sun, being in the house, and going for walks. Malu would thrive in a family or adult home. He was raised around young kids. He would be happiest in a yard to hang out in. Malu knows how to sit and come. He is crate-trained and potty-trained. Malu is neutered. He is not up to date on his shots. No special medical needs or issues. He is overall very healthy. Malu's back story is that he was my partners dog. When we broke up, she abandoned him and left him here. This was over 2 years ago. We no longer have contact. I am not able to care for 2 dogs, but want him to have a loving home. He is a good dog and deserves to have a great family.
