Dog Days

Dog Days at Mid-Atlantic Border Collie Rescue

New Arrivals...

Dogs come to us in all sorts of ways. Sometimes it is well planned, a transport set up weeks in advance, dog fully vetted, the dog arrives virtually ready to go into a new home.


Other times dogs come to us in a scramble. This little girl was found stray running by a good samaritan. The finder posted signs, called shelters and such to try and find the dog's owner with out success. They contacted one of our volunteers in the area, who in turn contacted me, and four days later the dog arrived riding in style in a crate wearing a bright pink collar.



This little one is pretty afraid. She has not been well socialised and is now decompressing in her crate, but seems to have a nice temperament and will be a super nice girl once she gets past being afraid. I'd love to get her into foster, so if you think you can handle some good, solid socialisation, let me know.


Special thanks go out the the generous volunteers who arranged to bring the pup here, then donated the funds for spay and vaccinations. We can't do our job without help like that and we truly appreciate the positive affirmations, the physical and financial assistance.

Little girl needs a name. She is about 7 months old, is shy, smooth coated, and not a big girl, I can tote her under my arm (30 pounds??). If you have a suggestion for her name, please leave it in the comments below.
