Story
We have a male Bulldog that I am looking to rehome. He was born in California and has been in Wisconsin for 4 years. While in California, he lived with 4 dogs. According to the records I have, his D.O.B is 03/25/2017. Our 3 year old granddaughter lives with us and the older she gets, the less I can trust him around her. While he is stubborn, he is great around adults and older children, but he is unpredictable around her. Plus he is large and very strong. We make an effort to keep them separated while in the house, but even that is getting difficult because she is like any other 3 year old…moving quickly, loud and I think that startles him. He takes allergy medication.

Story
Know anyone who is looking for a belly rub lovin' best friend? Layla is ready for her forever home! Layla came to MWBCR as a stray from rural Iowa. She is a high energy freight train on four legs, but is totally content to be a couch potato, as long as she gets enough exercise throughout the day. Her foster mom currently ensures she gets two or three 30-minute exercise breaks per day - her very favorite workout is chasing the spray from a garden hose! Still a bit shy around new people, Layla does make fast friends after a short visit and some high-value treats. She loves belly rubs and booty scritches and will smooch her foster mom repeatedly as a thank you. She is a big snuggler, but often on her own terms. When she's not lounging on the sofa, she does have a very strong herding drive (hence her love of the garden hose spray). She runs circles around other dogs and people and will sometimes muzzle punch your leg to get you to do something… especially to throw a ball. She does sometimes do the typical herding "nip," but has never bitten. Layla is house-trained but may have an occasional (rare) accident, which is understandable for a dog that may have lived exclusively outside before being rescued. While she definitely prefers to be out and with her people for most of the day, she does settle nicely into her crate and will sleep 7-8 hours through the night in it. She would do best in a home where someone is home most of the time. She also does great in a hard-sided crate for car travel after she's had a good game of fetch or chasing the hose. One of Layla's biggest victories in her foster home has been her progress with the vet. When she first came into rescue, she was terrified and aggressive at the clinic, and she could not be seen without heavy sedation. Her foster mom has been taking her in for "happy visits" once a week for many months and she now happily trots in to accept snacks and praise from the staff. This has shown us that with a little work, she can definitely overcome fear of new places. Prior border collie or working/herding experience is required to adopt Layla, as this special girl definitely needs a home with a job, a solid understanding of the breed, and lots of patience. A fenced yard is preferred, but a family who makes the commitment to visiting a private park or other secure space for playtime may be considered. As a note, we very much know she will not be a good fit for a family with other smaller pets or young children. After proper introductions, she would probably do fine with a larger dog that can tolerate her herding tendencies. Like any new rescue, Layla would benefit greatly from time with a behavioral trainer, especially to work on her leash skills. She's a very strong girl who is reactive to moving vehicles, people, and animals. Layla has made incredible strides in her foster home and we know she will thrive with a forever family dedicated to helping her be her best self. ​ Location & Contact Location: Southeast Wisconsin ​ Contact: team@midwestbordercollierescue.org Location & Contact Visit our site for more info https://www.mwbcr.org/alldogs Location: Southeast Wisconsin Contact: team@midwestbordercollierescue.org

Story
Laika is 36 lbs and 3-4 years old. This sweet girl loves chasing and often retrieving balls in the house and outdoors. She loves to sniff around off-leash in a fenced back yard. Turn on your garden sprinkler and she will be entertained and exercised. Laika initiates belly runs and gives kisses to her foster mom as a thank you. Laika is more dominant than Layla and has a strong herding drive, so we recommend a home with no children, cats or small critters. She's a little nervous meeting new people and dogs, which we are working on. Laika is spayed and fully vaccinated. She will need a fenced yard and an experienced handler with a strong understanding of the breed and a willingness to provide lots of exercise and tennis balls.

Cedar’s journey began in heartbreak—her mama was found as a stray in Texas, heavily pregnant & scared. We saw her big belly & gentle face & couldn’t leave her behind. Just one day after rescue, Cedar & her siblings were born. Her mama has found a beautiful forever home, but Cedar is still waiting.This sweet 5-month-old just wants to be loved, to sit on your lap & feel safe forever. Cedar deserves her happy ending.

Story
Athena is a 6 year old, 80 lb female German Shepherd hoping to find her forever home! She was surrendered to us due to the death of one of her owners, and she arrived in pretty bad shape. She wasn't potty trained, and she had a bad skin infection. Since fixing both of those issues along with decompression, Athena has really come out of her shell!This lovely lady is spayed, up to date on vaccines, crate trained, and potty training has gone very well! Athena enjoys being around people! She LOVES being in public and meeting new people. Athena is very interested in meeting other dogs, and she loves going for her walks. She has not been cat tested yet, but we can do that it needed.Athena would probably do best in a home with older children as she may accidentally knock over small children due to her size. She's not a jumper, but she loves to lean on you when she wants to be pet. Athena also loves to play with toys, and she is catching on to fetch!DATCP#483538

My name is Denver, it's no surprise I can have a big personality, & I want to meet YOU!!! I'm about 2 years old & 60 lbs, I'm pretty sure I'm a full breed Husky, & you know what that means?!? ❗️FUN❗️I can be full of dramatic gestures, but I'm very attached to my people, I've been known to throw myself in front of you, roll on my back, & remind you I need belly scratches (I like to add flair where I can). But if you're looking for those LOUD CRAZY huskies you see in videos? That's not me - I'm pretty quiet, I don't do a lot of those LOUD woo-woo howls, & once I've had my exercise, I settle down quietly & amuse myself with a chew toy. And I love to go on field trips, I'm very well behaved out in public. At home, I'd do best with another dog buddy and/or some children to be my friends. I'm a playful guy who loves all kinds of toys, playing fetch for a bit, wrestling with my doggy friends of all sizes, & especially 💦water💦!! I already know a few basic commands, I ride really well in the car, & I've just graduated to being trusted to sleep where I want at night - & I choose my crate with the door open. I get along great with other dogs of all sizes, I'm perfectly happy letting them be in charge, & I adore meeting new people. But NO CATS!! I lived in TX with a nice family, I did really well with their children & other dogs - but my fascination with the cats meant I had to find a new place to live. I got to hang out with some kids recently 4+ years old, & I was in heaven, I was so gentle, & belly crawled to get on their level (after a few nose kisses). And I haven't had an accident in the house for weeks, I just need some time to get settled. I'm a super smart guy with a big sense of humor, I like to test you to see if you mean what you say, so I'll need strong leadership & would love to do more training so I can be the best boy ever!! Now that I've told you about me, please submit your application so we can meet & get started having❗️FUN❗️DATCP#483538
