Meet "Ford" he
is a male Border Collie approx. 2 years old he has been
neutered and vet checked he is heart worm negative and has a
clean bill of health !! He is a nice dog probably a bit lower key
than someBorder Collies he weighs about 50 lbs and is a bit taller than
some as well but we belive he is a pure breed BC. He is good with
other dogs plays nicely and he listens to basic commands like sit, wait,
come and he walks well on a leash. He learned the doggy door in
his foster home in a matter of seconds and knows the command to go to his
crate too. He is fine when he eats allows you to pet him or
take his bowl without any negative reactions. " We
took Ford to a small farm and watched his reaction to chickens, ducks and
sheep and goats and he was fine with them he did not show any disrespect
or desire to worry the livestock he was fine with the barn cats and seems
fine with the indoor cats at his foster home. He
has been happy to meet the kids in the neighborhood of his foster home and
at the farm he visited he especially took to two young girls there. He can
sometimes be a bit timid around new men but will warm pretty quick he will
just approach in a crouched down worried position with tail wagging once
he finds hes safe he gets comfortable again fast. He will be
going to a basic training class soon with his foster Mom she teaches
obedience and Ford is going to get to go as a demo dog so he can get more
commands under his belt as he loves to learn and be with people.
This is a very nice dog who will make a lovely pet. He could do agility
and such I'm sure there is a ramp at his foster home to go in and out
of the dog door and he goes up and down with ease , Ford
doesn't have such a high energy level that he needs to do agility or
dog sports to be happy though he is happy to be a best
friend if he has ample walks and play times he also loves to
run and play with other dogs so a doggy pal would work well for him too.
Interest people must contact us for a adoption application and a
adoption fee does apply. Ford is available for
adoption from Victory Animal Rescue (Who Thanks Glen Highland Farms for
cross posting him for us) www.victoryanimalrescue.org
he is fostered in Northern, NJ and you can email Donna
Riley-Sweet at victoryaussies@gmail.com
or call 973-222-6183 for more info on this great dog.

Meet fabulous PARKER!!
Parker is a 13 mo old,. neutered border collie. He is lovable,
obedient and comes with a repertoire of tricks! Parker is looking
for a new home without toddlers. Like many border collies - he gets
along much better with older children (12 and up) and adores all
adults. He has great recall, is interested in meeting any stranger,
and loves his daily frisbee play time. Parker is the "real
deal" - so is looking for a family that understands the physical and
mental exercise needs of a border collie - and, when those needs are met,
he's a wonderful family member. Please contact Brett for more
information. Phone 732-921-5177 or email alirags@optonline.net

Bryce is a handsome 9 year
old neutered male Border Collie, AKC registered, looking for a home with
no other pets, this is a MUST. A low key Border Collie, he
loves to take walks, play fetch/chase, chew his nylabones and watch TV on
the couch. As a dog show champion, he is completely house broken,
loves his crate, and knows all his commands, plus a few extra. Bryce
requires and deserves a home where he is the only pet and the center of
attention, and in return he will give you his undivided attention and
love.

FLASH - is a sweet 2-3 year
old neutered border collie who will need a more quiet home with an
experienced BC owner. He is UTD on all shots, wormed, on Interceptor, 4DX
tested negative, micro chipped, and groomed and weighs about 40 lbs which
is small for a male BC. He does well for brushing and baths and nail
clipping. Flash will need a calm spayed female that is his size or larger
or a more calm and submissive neutered male with no small kids, or cats.
Flash needs more affectionate home and someone to devote time to him. He
is very nice, and submissive to his owners but can be somewhat reserved
with other people, so he needs a more subdued and low key home. A physical
fenced yard is required and he also walks nice on a leash and good in the
car. He loves his human and is house and crate trained and will make a
lovely companion since he really does not play with toys. He is in
the York PA area

MIST is a beautiful 1-2 year
old spayed female border collie. She ended up a stray in PA and is
now in rescue and doing great. Mist is utd on shots (rabies, DHPP,
bordetella), wormed, 4DX tested negative and on Interceptor, micro chipped
and on front line plus. This beautiful girl is very well behaved in the
house, crate and house trained, rides well in the car and knows her basic
commands. To spite her being cast out on the streets, she still is
well mannered and easy to work with. She has been groomed and did
good, pulls some on a leash but with constant walks she improves quickly.
Mist would like a semi active home since she is an intelligent breed and
needs stimulation. She does well with other dogs, but not sure about
cats. Recommend a home with older kids that are used to an active
and medium size dog. Mist weighs about 40 lbs and is very
affectionate and willing to please. A fenced yard is required and an
experienced border collie owner. An application, home visit/
pictures, vet and personal references are required. Mist is
being fostered in PA.

I
am looking for a new situation for Jed, the 5 year old
(veterinarian's estimate) red border collie I adopted two years ago.
my main reason for wanting a different situation for him, is that his
obedience and willingness is so amazing, i think he would make a great
agility or trial prospect, possibly for a high school 4-h project. the
only time i need to leash him is when there are a lot of people or a lot
of noise from vehicles. he will come away from anything when i call
him. he's used to a home environment, with periodic attention during
the day. i would not release him to a situation where he is crated
or isolated for long periods. he very much desires adult
companionship. he is not aggressive or protective and is very calm
for a border collie. he continues to amaze me with his ability to
grasp and generalize commands that i ask of him, and i am not a
"trainer" by any means. my location is central pa - state
college (where penn state university is). my 'phone # is 814-237-4341.
