Description
Dog Breed: Airedale Terrier / Border Collie / Mixed (short coat). My name is Rokky (odd spelling I know!). I'm really smart, so I do best in a home with routines, patience and firm boundaries. I'm very loyal and the kind of dog who makes a home feel like a home. I'd prefer to be the only pet in the house because other dogs make me nervous, sometimes people too, although some Forte people gave me belly scratches the first time I met them, which I really liked. I do some resource guarding so whoever adopts me will have to be diligent about limiting access to some items. If you are interested in meeting Rokky, please download the Adoption Questionnaire, fill it out and email it back to us at infofarescue or fax (310) 362-0321. You can also meet this and/or other available dogs at our weekend adoptions. [Rokky is 5.5 years old and weighs 40 lbs.] (2601)

Breed overview
Overview:
The Border Airedale, a captivating crossbreed of the Airedale Terrier and Border Collie, emerged from a desire to blend the best traits of both intelligent working dogs. Originating in recent decades, this hybrid typically boasts a medium to large build, characterized by the Airedale’s wiry, broken coat (often with tan and black markings) and the Border Collie's agile, muscular frame. Their temperament is a delightful mix: expect a highly intelligent, energetic, and loyal companion that thrives on mental stimulation and physical activity. While generally good with children and other pets when properly socialized, their strong herding instincts and need for engagement mean they are not suited for apartment living and require an active family committed to training and exercise. Prospective owners should be aware of potential health considerations common to both parent breeds, including hip dysplasia, eye conditions, and certain skin allergies. Early training and consistent socialization are crucial for a well-adjusted Border Airedale.
