Description
Dog Breed: Collie (medium coat). ***The first step in the adoption process is to complete the adoption application at .emmetcountyanimalshelter*** At just over a year and 65 pounds, young Rainey is a stunning collie mix looking for a home that can continue to work with his training and cultivate a bond with this playful silly pup! Rainey was originally found abandoned in the countryside emaciated and dehydrated. After some tender loving care he filled out and started to grow. Rainey seems to think everyone is his friend and would well in a home with another fun loving dog to play with and burn some energy with. Rainey is pretty terrified of car rides so he's not looking for a home where he is going to be expected to travel on a regular basis. Rainey has been on some leash walks but he could use additional training. He would love a fenced back yard where he could watch the comings and goings of the neighborhood or better yet race and chase with a friend! Rainy does pretty good with his potty training and will let you know when he needs to go outside. Rainy is neutered, up to date on vaccinations and microchipped. His adoption fee is $300.00

Overview:
The Collie, a majestic and intelligent breed, originates from Scotland where they were primarily used for herding sheep. Known for their striking beauty, Collies typically possess a long, flowing double coat that comes in a variety of colors including sable and white, tricolor, and blue merle. They have a graceful, athletic build, with a distinctive long muzzle and expressive eyes. In terms of temperament, Collies are renowned for being incredibly loyal, gentle, and highly trainable, making them excellent companions. Their affectionate nature makes them particularly well-suited for families with children, though their need for moderate exercise means they thrive in homes with yards, rather than cramped apartment living. While generally a healthy breed, potential owners should be aware of a predisposition to certain conditions like Collie Eye Anomaly (CEA) and drug sensitivities. With proper care and training, a Collie will enrich any household with their devoted companionship and bright personality.
