Story
Meet Sheesh, a one-year-old pup whose unique personality perplexed her foster mom until she received the breed results — border collie and Labrador retriever!  Sheesh’s hobbies are all lab. She loves playing fetch and brings the ball back consistently.  Sheesh also loves water and will go towards any source of water, whether it’s coming from a sprinkler in the neighborhood or running in a creek. She loves being outside in the rain and isn’t afraid of getting all wet. She’s so calm and easy during baths that her foster mom still bathes her in the kitchen sink even though she’s much too big for it now at 45 lbs full grown.  The border collie in Sheesh is also very apparent in how intelligent and obedient she is. Sheesh follows instructions without the need for a treat. She’ll come when you call her name and go to her crate when told to. She’s very smart and learns new skills quickly. She also has some herding tendencies and can get very focused on things like a squirrel in the yard. She’s of course energetic, but does take plenty of naps throughout the day.  Sheesh will do best in an active home with owners who want to take her on long morning walks. Sheesh loves her walks, but she can get a little too excited by other excitable dogs she encounters. She will need someone willing to work with her on this, possibly with a trainer’s help. Sheesh is very redirectable and responsive if the person walking her knows what to do.  Sheesh has been in her foster home since July 2024 and is fully potty trained, crate trained and has zero separation anxiety. She’s super friendly, happy and loving, and is friends with all the dogs in her foster home. There’s not a mean bone in her body. She even shows remarkable patience with small puppies, letting them climb all over her and chew on her beautiful, fluffy tail. Although she’s not perfect, Sheesh is a special young dog who will bring great joy to her forever family.”

Story
Meet Ozy, a one-year-old Labrador retriever and border collie mix with all the lovable qualities of a lab in a slightly smaller package.  Full grown at 55 lbs, Ozy loves water, is an expert at playing fetch and has the best nature. He’s friendly, lovable, a little goofy and just wants to sit on your lap! He’s great with other dogs of all ages and shows remarkable patience with the small puppies in his foster home.  Ozy is a turn-key ready dog. He was rescued from a rural shelter in July 2024 and has been learning how to be a good dog in his foster home ever since. Ozy is 100-percent potty trained, crate trained, easy to walk on a leash and obedient. He’s a good listener. He’ll come when you call his name and go to his crate when told. He aims to please his person. He loves a good treat, but it isn’t required for him to listen to instructions. Ozy is very smart and learns new skills quickly. Ozy does best with a good walk in the morning, but his energy level isn’t off the charts for being part border collie. But we would like his forever home to be an active one. Ozy would love to go on all the adventures with his new family. He absolutely loves going for car rides, and he would truly thrive going on hikes or walks in new places with his forever family.

Story
Meet Tulip, a sweet and serene senior dog with a heart full of love and a calm disposition. Recently, Tulip’s world shifted when her beloved owner passed away, and she found herself adjusting to a new chapter at a peaceful southern farm. Surrounded by other dogs, Tulip has shown her gentle nature, getting along well with everyone she meets.At her core, Tulip is looking for a quiet, tranquil life—somewhere she can settle in and enjoy her golden years in comfort. She dreams of a cozy bed, a caring owner, and a daily stroll through the neighborhood to stretch her legs. Tulip absolutely LOVES her walks. She is a champ on the leash! Tulip’s easy-going nature makes her a wonderful companion, and she’s happy to go with the flow, enjoying the simple pleasures of life.This low-energy girl is both crate-trained and housetrained, making her a fantastic addition to any home looking for a laid-back companion. Tulip’s quiet, loving presence is the perfect fit for someone who wants a peaceful life alongside a loyal and gentle friend.Important Note: Tulip feels most comfortable around women, as men tend to make her uneasy. She would thrive in a home with a female owner who can provide her with the security and love she needs.By adopting Tulip, you’re giving a cherished senior a second chance at a happy life—offering her comfort, security, and love in her golden years. If you’re ready to welcome this sweet soul into your home, Tulip is ready to show you just how much love a senior dog can give.Look at this sweet girl walking with her foster mom:https://youtu.be/_qVkf2xBTK0?si=TI5yTj65rMX1_JUTName: TulipBreed: Border Collie/CrossbreedSex: FemaleAge: 11 years  (estimated)Weight: 60Spayed/Neutered: YesVaccinations: Up to dateHeartworm: Negative on recent testingMicrochipped: YesBASED ON OUR OBSERVATIONS:Good with Children: 12 and older Good with Dogs: YesGood with Cats: YesAdoption Fee: $250.00  (includes transport fee when applicable)Location of dog currently:    New EnglandIMPORTANT INFORMATION - Paws New England is a foster-based rescue; our dogs reside in various locations throughout the south & New England.  Adoption donations cover pre-adoption vet costs (including vaccinations, spay/neuter when age appropriate, and heartworm testing/treatment when necessary), a microchip, and transportation to New England if necessary.Donations for our young, healthy puppies and dogs support their fellow canines of advanced age or suffering from injuries and abuse whose donations are reduced but whose veterinary costs are typically much higher.

Story
Sage & Willow are currently in RI and looking for a 'furever' home! Sage & Willow are a beautiful pair of 6-year-old Border Collie sisters who have been together since birth. After losing their owner, they are looking for a loving home where they can stay together forever. These well-mannered girls are house-trained, enjoy going for daily walks, and would love a fenced-in yard to chase squirrels. They have a strong prey drive, so no cats for these two! They love cuddles, pets, and affection. Sage & Willow would do well in a home with kids 10+ and are ready to bring double the love and companionship to their new family. If you are interested in adopting this dog please complete the adoption application at www.rhodehomerescue.org/adoption-form to become a pre-approved adopter. If you were already approved through Rhode Home Rescue within the last 6 months, contact us today!

Story
Hello. Our names are Nadia (F), Kinsey (F), Nathan (M), and Skeeter (F). Our rescuer was told our mom was a Belgian Malinois and dad was a Border Collie. We were born on July 8, 2023. We were turned over to the rescue lady when we were babies. There were eight of us. Not long after arriving, we started to get sick. We four were and are the healthiest. When we were out playing in the yard, she often asked us where the babies went, who was sweet and shy. Who switched them out of your energizer bunnies, then laughed as we ran around like crazy kids? We are brilliant, treat motivated (easy to train), sulk when scolded, crate trained, shy at first but warm up quickly, not house or leash trained (quick learners), like cats, submissive to other dogs, and have never been around children. Our foster mom has commented how wonderful we would be on an agility course.  I want to go hiking, go to the beach, run around on snow deeper than I am tall, curl up with you in front of the fireplace, and watch a movie. I have only heard my foster mom talking about most of this stuff. If you have patience and teach me, I will love doing whatever you do.
