Description
Dog Breed: Collie (long coat). Have you ever seen a more handsome tricolor collie boy? Meet Zuki — a friendly, fun-loving 3-year-old with a big personality and an even bigger heart. Zuki had a few understandably sad days when he first arrived at his foster home, but it didn’t take long for his happy spirit to shine through. Now he’s thriving and loving life. A slightly “fluffy” gentleman at the moment, Zuki is proudly working on his fitness journey (he was well fed!) and has fully embraced his healthy lifestyle. Early morning hikes through the woods and backyard playdates are quickly becoming his favorite activities. One of the best things about Zuki is how much he enjoys other dogs. He would absolutely love a home with a canine companion to play with and keep him company. He’s also become a wonderful walking buddy — after just a little practice, he now strolls beautifully on leash through neighborhoods and wooded trails alike. Zuki is a social guy who enjoys outings to hardware stores, nurseries, and anywhere he can meet new people and collect compliments. He previously lived with children, but because he has some strong herding instincts, he would likely do best in a home with older kids who understand dog behavior. At home, Zuki is an easy and lovable companion. He’s fully housebroken, has excellent indoor manners, and faithfully sleeps beside his foster mom’s bed every night. He also takes his household “security patrol” duties very seriously and will proudly keep watch at the front door. Zuki is truly a wonderful young dog — affectionate, engaging, and full of potential. He’s ready to bring joy, laughter, and loyal companionship to the lucky family who welcomes him home. If you are interested in rescuing a collie, please complete this short adoption questionnaire.

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.
