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. |

Meet
Oreo. Oreo is a great boy that unfortunately has wound his way up
at the shelter after living in a home for his entire life. He is about 6
years old and is a very sweet dog. Oreo has gone through so much in his
past and it unfortunately has made him feel very unstable and unsettled.
Oreo is looking for a more adult home, preferably with somebody home often
to ease the transition into a new home environment. He has not had the
easiest past and is need of a home willing to offer him a lot of patience
and love. If you are interested in Oreo, please fill out the Online
Adoption Application below. http://www.rbari.org

URGENT!!
Hey! My name is Vinny and I am a six year old border collie mix. I
am extremely active and would do well with a home where I can run and get exercise.
Because I was tied out most of my life, I lack basic training but I have
started working with the volunteers at BARKS and they say I am doing
great! I don't know how I am with kids or cats, but because of my large
size, I would do better in a home with adults or older children. Think I'm
a good fit for your family? Contact BARKS to
meet me!

Hi, I’m Lacey. You’d never guess I’m 8 years old, because I
have the energy of a young border collie, if you know what I mean. I love
to be always on the move, sniffing and investigating everything. But,
there are times when I can settle down and enjoy some attention. My
coloring and markings make me look like a border collie, but my size and
face look more like a sheltie. I’m good with other dogs, and didn’t
seem to mind cats, either. I’m used to spending most of my time outside,
but I’m sure I’d love being an inside dog, especially if that means
more loving and attention.

| Buddy and Lovey are border collie mixes that are
located in the Perkiomenville
SPCA in PA.
These dogs have been in the shelter for over 2 yrs as part of a
court case. (There were originally 30+ dogs being held) Some
dedicated volunteers have made it their mission to help socialize and
place these dogs.... please consider opening your hearts to some
very deserving spirits. Contact Lesley at Cell
267-391-9971 E-mail:
lesleymuirjones@msn.com
for any additional information on them |
Buddy
– Male – Age 4-5 yrs
Buddy is neutered, weighs 37lbs. He is very confident, goes up to
anyone for affection, he will connect, he’s independent and loves toys
when he can get them but will be protective if another dog goes near it.
He does okay with the other dogs but he would prefer to be solo –
no interest in them at all and appears to keep himself to himself. Buddy
is also very smart, picks up very quickly. Buddy is quite the
character! We eagerly wait to see who is called to him
|
|
Lovey
–Female – approx. 7 yrs old
-
Lovey
is not spayed, she is approximately 32lbs.
She is a very sweet, smart dog and is desperate for a connection.
Very friendly and still a lot of bounce!
Lovey walks really nicely on the leash and would be just the best
companion dog.
Lovey is not confident around small children so will be best placed
in a home without children.
She gets on with other dogs but would be just fine being the
‘princess of the palace’!
Lovey is a very easy dog and should adapt to home life very
quickly.

SCAMPER:
is an adorable 6 month old neutered male, black/white BC/spaniel
mix. He is UTD on all shots, dewormed, microchipped, on interceptor
and frontline. This little boy was a stay and came from a local
shelter. He is crate and leash trained and learning about being a
house pet. Scamper is playful, good with other dogs, but will need
to attend obedience class to learn his obedience and become a well behaved
dog. He is in his puppy stage and full of fun, playing and trying to
do better with his commands each day. Scamper will need a fenced
yard and someone will will spend time encouraging and reinforcing the
basic commands (come, sit, down and off). He is a loveable little
boy that weighs about 30 lbs and is full grown. The size of a cocker
spaniel but energy of a border collie. A home with older kids would
be preferred since his energy level is high. Scamper would make a
wonderful family pet and willing to please. Lots of kisses and hugs
he loves also. Scamper is now available and an application, home
visit, vet and personal references are required. For further
questions, call Pat at 717-592-9707 or email at Pamccann7@wmconnect.com

Annie is a beautiful,
approximately 10-11 year old border collie mix that acts much
younger than her age. She is a wonderful girl; she loves people and loves
kids. She is friendly and obedient. She loves to be petted,
and will follow her person from room to room just to be with them.
She wants so much to please her "person." She loves to go
for walks and can walk and walk. I
take her for two walks a day and she is able to do two miles at a time and
still could keep going. She would do best in a home with no
other dogs as she appears to have always been an only dog and is nervous
around other dogs, but does do well with older, more submissive dogs. She
does not like cats. We prefer a fenced yard but she is very good on a
leash. Annie qualifies for our Senior To Senior program. She deserves to
have her own family to love her. Annie is being fostered in Lancaster. PA Annie
would be a great retirement home dog. They would all love her, and
she definitely is not a nipper. She was great with kids as young as
4 giving her hugs and kisses.
She
settles in nicely after I leave the house, with maybe only a bark or two
as I leave. She doesn't bark when new people come into or
leave the house.

These 2 sweet little dogs were left in the back yard of a "border
collie, dog loving" family near Lansdale, PA.
They have been living with the family for several months while they look
for a new home for them. They get along with other dogs, cats, and
kids. They even enjoy a good cuddle. We think they are probably
border collie/american eskimo mixes. If you're interested in some
more information - please contact Ann at Homeschool11@aol.com
she can tell you all about them! (They will need to be neutered as
part of the adoption agreement)

Rex is a very sweet and affectionate adult border collie mix.
Poor Rex is looking for a loving person to hang out with, go on long walks
with, and play with. Rex needs someone to give him lots of TLC.
He has lived outside his whole life until he found a foster home.
Since then we have found that he IS house trained and crate trained.
He loves roaming around the house playing with toys and would love a
fenced in yard. He is very active for his age, loving walks and
play time. We think he'd do best with one dog his same size
that would tolerate a lot of play or Rex could be the only dog. His
foster mom says that Rex is as sweet as can be and wiggles all the
time. Please help Rex find his forever home!

Sparky
is a black/white male Border Collie mix(probably mixed with Sheltie), a
year old. He gets along well with other dogs but has a very vocal voice,
so sometimes the other dogs think he is not playing (it just takes them
time to get used to it). The foster home's other dogs get along fine with
him. When they first got him, he had never lived in a "pack" nor
seen cats. Now, however, he has actually seen it all. Kittens, bunnies,
ducks, other dogs and horses (which he doesn't seem to be to thrilled
about), so he is socialized and can live comfortably with other animals.
He is housetrained, crate trained, and likes kids -- but mostly older
kids, not little kids. He also is very good in the car. He absolutely
needs someone to be his leader. In addition, if you are interested in
doing herding, he has been introduced to sheep and did very well. He is
also had shots, is neutered and microchipped.

AUSTIN is
a 2 - 3 year old border collie mix. He was rescued from a high kill
shelter in Tenn. He was out of time so he came here to CT hoping to find a
forever home. He is very friendly and loves to play with the other dogs in
his foster home. He is a bit too interested in the kitties here so he
should be placed in a home without cats. He wants to chase them but since
the kitties here are too smart for that he has to settle for just barking
at them which the kitties do not at all
appreciate!! He is crate trained and housebroken. He has tested neg. for
heartworm and is current on preventative. He is UTD on vaccinations and
has been neutered. He is very treat motivated and learns quickly but still
needs to learn good inside behavior so a positive reinforcement based
class will be a condition of his adoption
