Description
Dog Breed: Border Collie (short coat). Adoption Fee: 600. Meet Willow! She is 2 years old. She was rescued after being dumped in Santa Paula while very pregnant. The shelter reached out to us to ask for our help and we couldn't refuse. 5 days after bringing her to LIFE rescue, she delivered 11 stunningly beautiful babies. 11 !! We have no idea how she fit all of them in her petite body but she was an incredible mom! She is now ready to break free from parenthood and have a real family and home to call her own. She is extremely affectionate and would love nothing more than to cuddle with her family most of the day. She is not a typical high active energy Border Collie. She is much more of a cuddler although she does love her walks. Our adoption fee is $600 which cover vaccines, deworming, and spay/neuter.

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).
