Description

Dog Breed: Collie (long coat). BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING ELSE, PLEASE READ ABOUT ROCKY MOUNTAIN COLLIE AND SHELTIE RESCUE AND OUR REQUIREMENTS FOR ADOPTION ON OUR WEBSITE AT .colliesheltierescue. OUR FIRST STEP TOWARD ANY PLACEMENT IS A COMPLETED ONLINE APPLICATION WHICH YOU WILL ALSO FIND ON OUR WEBSITE. Buster Brown is the name of this gentle giant of a rough Collie. Buster's family needed to make a move from the family farm to a home on a golf course to care for an elderly family member. Although Buster may be a great big dog on the outside, he is a smaller and more manageable sized dog on the inside. What I mean by that is that he is not a bull in a china shop. He is graceful and blends easily with the current crop of our dogs. Buster is a 7-year-old, neutered male, 90# mahogany sable rough Collie. His health is excellent. He moves well for a big dog and enjoys going for a walk or a ride with his chosen humans. His big excursion of the day was a trip to Big R, our local farm and ranch store, where all well-behaved dogs are welcome. He greeted men, women and children happily and enjoyed sniffing his way around the store. Because we have transitioned Buster to a low fat dog food, he did not get to snack his way from employee to employee. But he did not seem to mind. Collies are the best dogs ever. They love life and they love every human they come in contact with. If your Collie is "iffy" about a stranger, there is probably good reason and I would trust a Collie's instincts 100%. If all of this makes it sound like Buster Brown is just the right dog for your family, let's start the process with your application. Buster will be reviewing applications with me because, as I said, Collies are the best dogs ever.
