My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

A COMPLETED APPLICATION IS REQUIRED BEFORE ANY CONVERSATION ABOUT ADOPTING FROM OUR ORGANIZATION. PLEASE GO TO OUR WEBSITE AT www.colliesheltierescue.org AND READ ABOUT THE BASIC REQUIREMENTS (GOOD PHONE INTERVIEW, SECURELY FENCED YARD, FABULOUS REFERENCE FROM YOUR VETERINARIAN, HOME VISIT). I KNOW THAT IS A LOT BUT WE SCREEN CAREFULLY FOR THE SAKE OF THE DOGS. THEY DESERVE IT!

From the family of Burton.....

"Burton is a very loyal, loving dog who is happy to spend time with his person doing just about anything, including snuggling, walking, riding in the car, tummy rubs or playing tug. His tug rope is his favorite toy and he will bring it to you to engage in play. He loves to lie on the carpet and rub his back!

We are careful not to leave unattended people food (or dog treats) within reach of Burton.... We also remember to close the pantry door now." LOL

Burton is an 11-year-old combo dog. We think Sheltie and Aussie mix. Healthy, neutered male, used to regular grooming and lots of companionship from his family. His folks are unable to keep him for the rest of his life. And Burton wants what every pooch wants. Stability and compassion, good food and a comfortable place to nap.

Adopting a senior dog is a gracious and loving thing to do. We believe that those folks go straight to the head of the line at the Rainbow Bridge.
