Story
Lucy is an adorable Border Collie mix with a great smile! She loves going on long walks and even sits politely when you leash her to go outside. Lucy enjoys traveling and is a great running partner. She loves snuggles and belly rubs. Lucy does well with sleeping on her own, with free access to her crate. She is a good listener, and overall well-behaved other than her jealousy/aggression issues. She is an anxious dog and we have given her calming medications in the past. Lucy was originally owned by a relative that adopted her from a shelter. Our relative could no longer care for her because of how active Lucy is. Our relative had a chihuahua and three other cats that Lucy did well with. From what we have seen in the past, Lucy does well with kids. We have seen that she must warm up to younger men.

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Online Adoption Application › Bundle of Loving EnergyCricket is a 20-month-old bundle of loving energy. If you are looking for an active companion, a hiking or running partner, she might be your girl! She would also be fun to play any sport with, she is both food and toy motivated, wants to please and does not ever run out of energy. Her legs are spring loaded and will leap to any height to catch a frisbee or a ball. She absolutely loves water and is fearless on boats and floats. The sky is the limit for her sports potential, she could be a fantastic dock diving dog, she could play frisbee, flyball, agility or obedience with the right training. She does settle down nicely after a good walk or play session and is snoozing under my desk as I write this bio. She is good in a crate and loves car rides.Cricket loves human beings of any age. She is great with children however she is exuberant and would knock over a toddler in an instant, she would probably be better with slightly older kids who enjoy a playmate. She will chase a ball all day long for them!Cricket first came to the Carolina Border Collie Rescue as a little black and white puppy, but turned out not to be a Border Collie. Cricket was adopted out to a great family but unfortunately animosities developed between her and the other dog in the household, an alpha female, that could not be remedied and resulted in fights between the two dogs. Cricket was returned to CBCR and therefore now has to find a family without other pets. She could potentially be matched to a larger, good natured male dog who is not easily offended by Cricket who has little sense for other dog’s personal space or boundaries. She gets along fine with a male dog in her foster home. Cricket has met a myriad of dogs on walks and never displayed any reactivity in that setting. She will need a fenced-in yard (no electric fencing) where she can chase her ball safely.contact info: Gabriela Seiler Seilergs@gmail.com 215 292 8297   Cricket is fostered in Holly Springs, NCVisit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.August 20, 2024, 1:07 pm

Story
Rico is a playful, silly, energetic 8mo old pure bred border collie. My husband and I got him as an 8 week old puppy and underestimated the amount of training and structure he needs that, with both of our busy schedules, we are not able to provide. We live in a small apartment runs through, in circles and we feel we are constricting him of a life he really deserves. Due to our schedules he has been inside for a majority of his time with us and has grown some behavioral issues when going outside. This started about 2 months ago toward anyone or anything that moves. He is only getting stronger and more aggressive to the point I am barely able to contain him once he is triggered and have tried many methods of deterring or preventing is but he is a smart and observant dog… that’s what he’s made for. We are hoping to find him a loving home with lots of time, space and patience to handle his big personality. He’s really goofy and cuddly.

These pups are in Burlington, North Carolina too!

Story
Dog Day Out, 7/27/24:Rocky was great today. He is a super friendly and sweet dog. I had initially wanted to see how he would do in a more relaxed environment instead of just taking him on a hike. Let me start by saying that Rocky is one of the sweetest dogs I`ve been around. He`s super relaxed once we gets to know you and you`ll notice a demeanor change once he`s warmed up to you! He`s a huge snuggle bug and was perfectly content with laying on my wood floor while I laid on the sofa. We had some lunch and Rocky did not beg and went to lay down, not paying much mind to the food we had. He is super sweet and he walks okay on the leash but there`s room for improvement. I would adopt this dog if my family member was not allergic. He is great! Foster notes, 6/1/24:Rocky is such a sweet pup! It definitely took him some time to come out of his shell and warm up to everyone. It took him longer to get comfortable with my husband than myself. He has been great with our 3 and 6 year old kids--he`s not bothered by them at all. A weird thing we learned is that he can walk UP stairs, but he is afraid to walk back DOWN them... It`s possible that this is because our stairs are narrow and hardwood, but he wouldn`t go near them and eventually had to be carried down. He`s very laid back about eating--just sort of grazes and has no food aggression. He lets you know when he needs to go out to potty. Mostly he follows me from room to room and just lays near wherever I am. He doesn`t bark at all, is very relaxed, but always seems down for an outing! At first, he didn`t seem to know any commands or even respond very well to his name. But once he got more comfortable and I got some treats, he seemed to know the drill. I haven`t tried to do too many commands, but we are going to keep working on it. He walks well on a leash. He doesn`t pull at all, but I don`t think he has a lot of practice with it because he doesn`t have leash awareness--he walks on the opposite side of poles or wraps himself or others up, etc. We have just been doing a once a day around the block walk and will hopefully get better. We left him home alone for just an hour and a half so far and he did fine. He wasn`t happy about us leaving, but didn`t bark or whine. When we got back, he was laying right by the door and nothing was chewed and no accidents. He REALLY doesn`t seem to like water. We wanted to give him a bath and he was not having it, lol!Foster notes, 4/30/24:Rocky is

Volunteer notes, 6/26/24:Baxter is high energy and loves to run. He will come when called. Affectionate.Volunteer notes, 5/12/24:Loved chasing then bringing back the tennis ball. Enjoyed a longer walk, curious to sights and sounds, but not pulling. Startled my movement in the woods, but recovered, no pulling to chase anything. Enjoyed being petted, sitting in the grass togetherVolunteer notes, 5/7/24:Today we learned that Baxter loves to chase balls, but his idea of playing fetch is to touch the ball with his nose and run back. He is sweet, friendly, goofy, and hilarious. He loves treats!Volunteer notes, 5/2/24:Baxter is a bouncy, goofy little love bug who is absolutely delightful to play with in the yard. He loves to show off his zoomies and ball fetching skills, and will demonstrate his knowledge of commands in exchange for treats. You cannot watch this dog play without laughing; he is full of infectious joy!
