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.

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.
