Description
Dog Breed: Border Collie (medium coat). What an absolute sweet, sweet dog is Sycamore! And oh, those eyes! Hypnotizing! He will enchant you with his movie-star good looks. He's a beautiful black-and-white Border Collie with a `Shepherd's Lantern` (fluffy white tip on the end of his tail) so you'll always be able to find him in low light... A gentleman on a leash, attentive and calm, he wants nothing more than to be close to his person. He's sleek and smooth, and moves with the grace of a dancer. Sycamore looked pretty sad in his kennel but came out quietly and once outside, he crawled up next to the nearest person for cuddles and pets (did we mention he has the softest, shiniest fur?) On a walk around the building, he relaxed and enjoyed exploring the grounds. He was non-reactive to other dogs, turkeys, and squirrels. He has the Border Collie's natural athleticism and would excel in activities that use his many obvious abilitiesâagility, herding, tracking... His medium size makes him a great companion on long hikes or jaunts about town. His manners are so good, you'll want to take him with you everywhere. Take a look at the pictures below and you'll be rushing to come and meet him! Don't miss out on this superstar! Make an appointment to meet him at yoloshelter. All animals are up-to-date on vaccinations (including rabies if over 4 months old), microchipped, and spayed or neutered. All dogs have been been vaccinated with DHPP and Bordatella (kennel cough) and heartworm tested negative (if over 6 months). All cats have been vaccinated with FVRCP and current on flea control.

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).
