My story

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

If interested in adopting, read about our Adoption Process and complete an Adoption Application on the Mo-Kan website.  A Mo-Kan application must be filled out to begin the process.
 



Coming soon!!  Anderson is not ready for adoption just yet.

Hi I am Anderson, a blue Merle Border Collie boy, about 9 mos old. I was rescued from a hoarding situation, and am looking for a quiet, loving, patient home.

I LOVE other dogs, especially a nice, playful, confident buddy to help show me the ropes of a life with people and a house. I haven’t had a lot of experience with humans but starting to like my foster home. It takes me lots of time to warm up, and very importantly that I can go at my own pace, as I learn about people. I am starting to enjoy pets, and seek attention from my foster mom, she is my safe person. I enjoy belly rubs and extending my paw for attention. I can be in the same room with a few strangers, and happily chew a bone, or play with one of my favorite toys. I am doing well with slow introduction to new people.

Foster mom says I need experienced owners with the breed, and how to work with a shy and fearful dog. I need my humans to go slow and have patience with me as I learn about the world. I need positive and gentle training only, so that I can gain confidence and be a happy dog in my family. I would be best in a home without children.

I am kennel trained, it is my “safe” spot, and I sleep there at night and when foster mom is away. I am learning to take treats from my foster family, and love hanging out with them chewing a bone while they watch TV. I LOVE running in the backyard, and zooming after a ball, and I love all toys!! I love my foster sister, she shows me that strange things are safe, giving me lots of the confidence that I need. I want a dog like her in my new forever home!

I am interested in cats, and I can probably live with one that is good with dogs.

I am ready to search for my forever home, could that be you? I’ll be waiting!

Love, and woofs,

Anderson

Anderson is ready for adoption to the right home. His new family must have experience with training a shy and fearful dogs. He will need another confident, and playful dog to show him the goodness of life with humans.  Love, patience, and positive training, will in turn, reward you with the love from this wonderful boy!

Anderson is being fostered in the Newton, KS area.
