Casey is very friendly and loves being around children and adults. She likes taking walks and is good on a leash. She also like car rides. Casey has proved to be trustworthy when left alone and knows her basic commands. She is well behaved around cats. Casey had to adjust to life in her foster home with other dogs wanting to share toys.

21st Annual Collie Day in the Park

Finley

FINLEY is a 7 year old tri-color male Collie that was picked up as stray and spent some time in the dog pound. He likes other dogs, cats and kids, but he is still learning his manners and is a little over-enthusiastic. For that reason, he might not be a good fit for a home with small children as he could knock them down. Finley is housebroken and can be trusted not to destroy things in the home. He walks well on a leash and is a lot of fun, he loves chew toys and playing tug with you.

Brandi-Lynn

BRANDI-LYNN is a 6 year old Sable female who spent the last several months working to regain her health.  She came to TCCR underweight, with allergy issues, and heartworm positive.

Brandi-Lynn was successfully treated for heartworm and will now be on preventative year-round. Her allergy concerns have been successfully treated with a commercially available allergy-free food, allergy medication, and thyroid medication. Because of these needs, we are looking for just the right family to welcome this special girl.

Brandi-Lynn is housetrained and  trustworthy left loose when the family is not at home.  She loves car rides, kitties, and other dogs.  She is obedient and walks well on a leash.

Caeto

CAETO is 4 year old rough mahogany sable female. The first thing that comes to mind when describing Caeto, is that she is very sweet and loving. Once she gets used to her surroundings, she will get attached, will want to follow you, and lay at your feet.

Caeto is every bit a lady; she is housebroken, trustworthy when left alone,  does very well with other pets like dogs cats and birds.  Caeto knows basic commands and is good when walking on a leash. She also enjoys car rides. Caeto would do equally well with a young family with children or with an older adult.

She was loved by her previous family, but circumstances forced them to give her up. Caeto needs a second chance with a new family; could it be you?

Tucker

TUCKER is a 9 year old Tri-color male collie. This big boy is verys weet and has a gentle hearted spirit. He knows his commands and gets along well with dogs, cats, birds, horses, rabbits and even goats!  He especially loves children that are approximately 10 years and older.

Biscuit

BISCUIT will be 10 years old come May 8.  We originally fostered him back in 2003 . He is a very friendly dog to all and doesn’t have a mean bone in him. If you want a loyal dog who will always be at your side and be your best friend, that’s Biscuit. He likes to talk to you when he wants attention and loves to go after the garden hose stream and comes out of it soaking wet . The only issue he has is the kitchen floor. We had to put down rugs so he could get across to the other room. Biscuit has had little training and needs someone to teach him some basic commands. His former owner became ill and had to move into an apartment a few years ago so he didn’t get a lot of exercise just out on a lead to do his business. He needs a home with a yard and exercise. Biscuit came back to us when his owner had to move into an assisted living home.

Holly

HOLLY is a very pretty 3 year old.  She is well behaved and knows basic commands, is very affectionate but somewhat shy and a little reserved.

Holly likes to be with children but also would do well with an older person.

She would benefit by being with someone who is home most of the time and would not do well left alone for long periods of time. She does well with cats or dogs. Holly has a mild case of ” collie nose” or more technically “nasal solar dermatitis ” meaning that Holly is sensitive to excess sunlight on her nose due to light pigmentation in that area. This is something that can be controlled by limiting her time out in the sun; sunblock and a simple vitamin regimen is also very helpful.   A physical, above-ground fence at her adopting home is a requirement.  Holly would be a loving addition to your family.

Lucy

LUCY is a pretty, petite 4 year old Tri Color female collie with special needs. She has Addison’s Disease and will require moderately priced medications daily the rest of her life. However, given her medications regularly, she should be able to live a fairly normal life.

Lucy is a sweet, happy, intelligent dog who loves attention and tummy rubs. She is timid at first meetings, but later warms up. She is good with cats and enjoys not only playing with other dogs but also looking to them for guidance and protection. She responds to structure.

Gus

GUS is a seven-year-old tri-colored collie.  He is up-to-date on all vaccines, is heartworm negative, and is a very sweet fellow.  He gets along fine with other dogs and even tries to play with them.  He is fine on walks and rides well in the car.  Gus loves kids, he sleeps with our grandson when he stays over.  He is very gentle, and loves our morning routine of a treat after being let out.

Gus has some issues however.  He loves to escape and will run if given the chance.  Gus was fostered by us four years ago and was the same sweet dog then.  He was adopted by what we thought was a loving & caring family.  When he arrived back here this June, he was Mr. Houdini dog.  I don’t know what they did to him when they had him.

Gus needs a pretty secure containment system and someone who is dog savvy as he is a smart fellow who will gain your confidence and watch for his chance to escape.
