MEG
-- Border Collie/Jack Russell. This 7 month old young lady is 25 pounds of sweetness who also happens to be extremely smart.

Meg has lots of energy and likes to be busy so she needs a home where she can get lots of exercise and play time. Agility classes would be great for her to participate in ! She knows all basic commands and gets smarter everyday.

Meg tends to be a bit "bossy" with other dogs but has done well with other ones who don't let her "take over". She is young, fun and very loving too. She is spayed and all vet work is current. If you are looking for a great girl to do lots of things with, Meg might just be the one !

If you are interested please contact Keeper Rescue at keeperrescue@gmail.com telling Meg a little about yourself and her care givers will be in touch.



RINA
-- Hi everyone-meet "RINA"(Her name means "JOY" in the Hebrew language). Rina was recently surrendered by a woman who left her outside for her entire 7 years of life! The woman apparently had 3 dogs(2 were allowed inside and poor Rina had to suffer outside alone).

Rina is a real gentle soul and just needs a person/people to show her the loving ways of the world.She is up to date on shots. We cat tested her, and she did beautifully. She also did very well with people at Union Square this past Saturday.

Please help us find a Foster/Loving Permanent Home for this girl that is a pure "Bundle of Joy!"

If you are interested in Rina, Please contact Michelle at angeliquemarlowe8@gmail.com or 212-875-7538



BO
-- Bo is a 4 year old neutered, male, reported to be a border collie mix. He is up to date on all his shots. Bo is super-friendly and exuberant. He will do best in a family with older children. He likes dogs and cats. Bo likes to play fetch, likes to be petted and give kisses. A fenced yard for Bo is preferred since he is VERY fast and will chase cars if given the opportunity. Bo comes with food, a gentle leader and a run.

If you are interested in Bo, please call Matthew Goodsell in Montgomery, VT at 802-326-2050.


GILLIE -- Gillie is an ABCA registered 7 month old border collie male looking for a border collie savvy home.

If interested please contact Terri at 570-840-9501. Gillie is located in eastern PA.



COCO
-- Coco is 7 years old (birthday in April), is up to date on shots, Frontline, Heartguard, etc. and has annual vet exams (last one 6/26/09). No health problems have been discovered other than her herding behavior. She takes Prozac once a day to control that. It is around $6 / month at Costco. Blood work has been run to test that that is not having adverse affects on her systems.

She has been great with our other dogs (mostly lab mixes) and our children, as well as other children, and visitors. She is the one that the kids fight over getting to sleep with at sleep overs.

She needs a home that is not on a busy street with many bicyclists, runners, etc. crossing the house each day. It is when she gets out of the house accidentally off lead that we have issues. We have NO issues at all with her inside the house or in the dog run. She did very well with the invisible fence situation at my husband's house before she moved in here. He was on a private drive with 2 other homes so there wasn't a lot of activity going by the house on a constant basis. Our home is not able to have an invisible fence set up.

She is quite smart, very very affectionate, loves to curl up on laps and in bed with the kids. Her coat is super soft and does not shed much (wish the other dogs were the same!). Coco is unknown with cats, and weighs approximately 50lbs.

OREO
-- Oreo is a 6 year old male(neutered) smooth coat Border Collie.

Oreo possesses all of the intelligence, energy, agility and affection that is typical of a border collie, but needs a new home where he can have the time and attention that he deserves and the room to run free away from dangers of traffic or with a fenced in yard.

Oreo does respond well to human command. He lives in central Vermont in the Killington - Woodstock area.

Call Steve at 860-614-2113 to inquire further about adopting Oreo.
