| SAMMY |
 |
Sammy is a 5-7 year old purebred male Border Collie. He is classically marked with a rough coat. Sammy came to us via the shelter system, but we do know his history. Junior is his son. Sammy was advocated to us by shelter personnel, saying that they had this really nice BC in their shelter. After bailing Sammy from the shelter, BCIN was contacted by relatives, and were told that the landlord had AC come and pick upboth Junior and Sammy. Apparently his owner had passed away and the story is rather sad.
Sammy has rather a gregarious personality. He's alway happy to see you and is rather affectionate. Sammy loves to be doted on and adores being around people. He has some manners, but we understand that he was more of an outside dog, so he will need some housetraining to prevent potty accidents. Sammy wants to please, so crate training to prevent potty accidents is the key. Sammy is fine with other female dogs, but he does not like other male dogs, and is quite reactive to them.
Please open your heart and home to adopting a senior. BCIN takes in more than a fair share of the senior BCs, as it is fact that adoption rates in the shelter are reduced significantly once a dog reaches 5 years of age. BCIN was Sammy's only hope of making it out of the shelter and we gladly welcomed him into our rescue program. Sammu will be adopted under our Senior Program. This means we reduce our adoption fee significantly so that he can find a loving home where he spend the rest of his golden years as a pampered pooch.
If you are interested in meeting our dogs, please fill out an adoption application. We require a pre-approved application to be on file before any meet and greets are scheduled. The electronic application can be found on our website at http://www.bordercolliesinneed.org/border_collie_rescue_and_adoptions/adoption_application.html |
