Description
Dog Breed: Border Collie. Marlo is a 4 year old long haired border collie. He is up to date on vaccinations and is at a healthy weight at around 50 lbs. Marlo is a happy dog that loves to play. He is active when he needs to be, but can also be calm and relaxed and loves exchanging hugs and kisses. Marlo gets along with other dogs but has never been cat tested. He is house broken and knows basic commands. Marlo is not a fan of the crate so would probably do best in a home where he will not be left alone for long hours. By no fault of his own, Marlo is looking for a new forever home that will love and nourish his well being. If you would like to make Marlo part of your family or would like additional information, please contact Haydee at 908-510-7957 or haydee.arroyo10gmail. This is a courtesy post for the owner of this dog. You will not be adopting from Castle of Dreams Animal Rescue. Please contact the owner directly through the contact info provided above.

Overview:
The Border Collie is a highly intelligent and energetic herding dog, originating from the Anglo-Scottish border region where they were bred for their exceptional sheep-gathering abilities. Physically, they are medium-sized dogs with an athletic build, typically weighing between 30-55 pounds, and feature a double coat that can be rough or smooth, appearing in a wide variety of colors, though black and white is most common. Their alert, intense gaze is a hallmark of the breed. Temperamentally, Border Collies are renowned for their incredible trainability, eagerness to please, and boundless energy, making them excellent candidates for dog sports like agility and obedience. However, this high drive means they require significant mental and physical stimulation; without proper outlets, they can become bored and destructive. While loyal and affectionate with their families, their herding instincts can sometimes translate to nipping at children or other pets if not managed, making them generally better suited for experienced owners who can dedicate time to their training and exercise needs. They are definitely not suited for apartment living and thrive in homes with large, secure yards and active lifestyles. Health-wise, they are generally robust, but can be prone to certain genetic conditions such as Collie Eye Anomaly (CEA), hip and elbow dysplasia, and Trapped Neutrophil Syndrome (TNS).
