| The following border
collies mixes are available through other agencies or as independent
placements by owners. The adoption of the dogs
listed below will be handled by the individual home or shelter listed in
the dog's bio. Glen Highland Farm
is available to assist if needed. For more information about these
dogs, please use the contact information provided with each dog. |

Glen Highland Farm
volunteers have temperament tested those dogs displaying the GHF logo in
their bio on the date indicated. The evaluation and information
provided is accurate, only as of that date. All others are listed

***********CAUTION***********
PLEASE BE AWARE that you need to check people out before handing
over your dog to someone you do not know. There are unscrupulous people
who appear to be good adopters so be cautious and check references,
especially asking for a neighbor's phone number so you can be sure that
the information about them is accurate. We recommend a TRANSFER
OF OWNERSHIP agreement so that you can have some written
agreement about your dog's future situation in the event it does not
work out for the person to keep the dog. It is important to insure that
your dog does not eventually land in a shelter where he or she could be
euthanized. Instead, the person agrees in writing to notify you so
that you can then step in and take an appropriate course of action. |

We're faced with a very very tough decision to find a new home for our
border collie mix dog, Maya. We love her so much and she was
our first baby. We had her for about 5 years, when we had our twins
(who are now very energetic toddlers). So, needless to say, all the
time that we spent with her is now gone as my husband and I also have full
time jobs outside the home.
Maya is 8 years old now, and has been to multiple obedience classes since
she was a puppy. We adopted her from a shelter when she was 8 weeks
old. She's a very good dog and would thrive in an environment where
someone had time to dedicate to her needs (or had older kids). I'm
sure she misses the life we used to have, where we doted on her.
she is located in Denville, NJ - contact Sharleen sharlmor@hotmail.com

Emma
Yellow Lab/Border Collie Mix
DOB: Feburary 13, 2009
Spayed and all up to date on vaccines (have all paperwork)
On Heartgard and Advantage each month.
She is Natural Balance dry dog food.
She is a high energy dog, SUPER cuddly and lovable.
She needs someone who will run her, let her run off-leash in a safe area,
and play fetch with her (this is her favorite game!)
She has lived with another dog and gets along with most dogs - I haven't
had a problem with that yet!
She has also lived with a cat and has gotten along with the cat just fine
as well.
Emma has been around small children, men, women, and has been fine around
all people.
She is crate trained (she would stay in her crate when I was working, and
would sleep in her crate as well - she LOVES her little space!) and potty
trained.
She has basic obedience training - brought her to a six week training
program.
She knows "sit, stay, down, shake, come" and does NOT pull on
her leash when walking and running - she is VERY obedient to her
"family" and her "pack leader". She does very well
with training and LIKES to be trained. (I practice with her at least 3
times a week with her training she has learned.
She LOVES the water, the ocean, and any type of play
with water - she even LOVES bath time!! (She sometimes drinks water while
I am bathing her).

I adopted Emma from a Rescue myself, and I absolutely
adore and love her. I am moving to NYC, and I am afraid of her not being
able to get another space and exercise for her type of breed. I am moving
because I have to take a job that was offered to me, and I could not pass
up (especially in this economy). My LAST thing I wanted to do was to have
to give Emma up, as she is my child, but I also need to be able to further
my career and have income to support myself first. I know Emma will be
wonderful in a place that has a yard, and room for her to run around - as
that is what she is used to, and what she has had her whole life.

Meka is a six-year-old
border collie mix who is very well-behaved, calm, loyal, and an
all-around excellent companion dog. She is very easy to walk on leash,
and is house trained and quiet. Meka prefers a quiet household and
is unhappy living with the small children in her new blended
family, but would be a very good match for an older single person or
couple looking for a healthy, affectionate companion. For more
information on Meka, who lives in the Buffalo, NY area,
please contact Ted at SCHMIDTP@BuffaloState.edu.

Say
"Hello" to Molly! I’m a female Border Collie mix,
about three years old. I was with my family for around a year and a half.
Before that, the other family who had me was mean to me. So I’m a little
shy when I first meet people. But I’d never hurt anyone. I just need to
know you don’t mean me any harm. Then, I’ll sit by you, put my head on
your knee, and snuggle for as long as you want me to. I weigh 55lbs.
and I have a thick, fluffy coat that’s silky and shiny and snuggly as a
teddy bear’s. I live peacefully with cats and even love little Bruno the
Min-Pin. But I confess, I just can’t get along with pushy female dogs
who won’t show me respect.

Introducing Rex!
Rex is a border collie mix who was found as a stray in Butler County, PA.
We think that he is about 4 years old and he recently received a summer
clip and is much happier! (His coat will grow into a medium/rough coat.)
Because Rex was a stray, we unfortunately don’t know much about his
background. We do know that he seems to have some vision problems, most
likely caused by cataracts. Due to this, we feel that Rex would do best in
an adult only home where he wouldn’t be easily startled by children. Rex
did have some food guarding issues when brought in, but we have been
working with him and feeding him by hand and he is showing good progress.
He is warming up and becoming more comfortable in his new environment and
is happy to be safe from roaming the streets. He walks well on a leash and
enjoys sniffing around outdoors. Though we don’t know if he is
housebroken, he is doing well in his kennel. Rex is a very handsome dog,
has beautiful teeth, has recently been neutered and is in great shape,
weighing around 50 pounds. Please consider giving this wonderful dog a
second chance at a good life, with a caring companion.

Two sweet, beautiful brothers, border collie mixes,
looking for a new home together. Triton and Czar are nearly 2
years old, originally rescued from a shelter in OH at 9 weeks --
these guys need an active, dog-oriented home. They have the great
qualities of bc mixes – smart, active, like kids to play with (but not
herd!). They do team up on cats, so need dog-savvy cats, or no cats.
Both dogs need to work on their “on leash” manners, and recall to
their names. Unfortunately, family members have developed allergies,
and have exercise limiting health conditions, so need to rehome these dogs
as soon as possible. Located near Pittsburgh, please
call Robert or Kathy at 724-382-4014 for
more information.

about Penny
Penny
is a beautiful 4.5 year old Border Collie Mix looking for a loving home.
Though she is part Lab and Border Collie, Penny definitely looks (black
and white) and acts (friendly) more like the Border Collie breed!
She’s extremely loving and gentle and would do well in a family with
adults and/or perhaps teenage children. Penny is playful and
energetic; yet is pretty laid back a lot of the time. She is a good
exercise partner and loves to walk or run. Penny also enjoys both
short and long car rides. She likes to sit in the backyard and
“guard” her area. Penny is extremely well behaved and trained in
the house and she can “sit, sit pretty, shake and high five” on
command. She would make a great companion for someone who is home
often (as with her current owner); however, Penny is also on a nice
schedule for the working family. When someone comes to your door,
she'll let you know, but when you tell her - go lay down - she'll go away
and let you answer the door. She has never tried to bolt out of the door.
Penny is fully up to date on all vaccines and veterinarian exams. If
interested in having Penny join your family, please email: PennyPgh22010@aol.com
(Please note the number “2” appears twice in the email address).
A small re-homing fee will apply.
