Description
Dog Breed: Collie (short coat). A COMPLETED ADOPTION APPLICATION IS OUR FIRST STEP TOWARD ANY PLACEMENT. YOU WILL FIND THE ONLINE APP ON OUR WEBSITE AT .colliesheltierescue. UNTIL WE HAVE THAT PIECE OF INFORMATION, WE HAVE NO PLACE TO START A CONVERSATION. Amelia is a senior smooth coated Collie, referred to as a smoothie. Her whole world has been turned upside down due to the death of her beloved dad. She is in a foster home with lovely humans while we reach out to find her the right family match where she will live for the rest of her lifetime. Amelia is a spayed female, up to date on vaccines and heartworm negative. She is housebroken and has some obedience training as well. She has favorite dog beds in each room and will settle happily near you as you go throughout your day. At bedtime, she once again settles on a dog bed near you and snoozes until morning. Amelia is what we call "an easy keeper" because there is nothing demanding about her personality. She will need to know that you love her and value your friendship with her. And she will return that love with her whole being. We will begin accepting adoption applications on 10/28 and will get back to folks who are a possibility for Amelia. Unfortunately, often a flood of applications will preclude us from calling each potential adopter. There are not enough hours in the day for our volunteers. But if we believe that your family will make Amelia's life wonderful, you will hear from us. Thank you for reading about Miss Amelia and considering her to complete your family.

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.
