Description
Dog Breed: Border Collie / Australian Shepherd / Mixed (medium coat). Adoption Fee: $350.00. This extremely beautiful and special girl is Mama Mia. She is around 2.5 years old, medium sized, and our best guess is she is a Border Collie/Australian Shepherd mix. Mama Mia gave birth to the “Pasta Puppies” a litter of 8! On 3/20/2026. This was her first and last litter, which she is very grateful for because boy were her puppies heavy eaters! She came into foster care emaciated and it was very difficult to get weight on her while she was nursing. She has now filled out so nicely with a beautiful sleek coat! Mama Mia has been a fantastic mother to her babies, keeping them protected, clean, and well fed. However, nobody was as excited as her for them to be weaned. She was also great at letting anybody hold and handle her babies if she got some loving too. Mama Mia is crate trained, she sleeps in her crate at night and has run of the kitchen during the day, with a doggy door. She is a pro with the doggy door and always takes herself outside to go potty. Mama Mia is a very loyal dog and accompanies her grandpa foster to a big grassy park every evening where she loves to run and chase a ball. She is lightning fast! She never gets too far away from her grandpa foster though and always has here eye on him, he couldn’t sneak away if he wanted to! She enjoys other dogs but humans are where her true love lies. Some fun facts about Mama Mia is she is an excellent trail riding dog, and stays out of the horse pens unless invited in. This trait will transfer over to a mountain biking and hiking/trail running companion. Mama Mia is also well behaved around chickens, pigeons, cats, and respectful kids. Mama Mia is very mellow and well behaved on car rides. She also loves a fat nap but exercise and getting her wiggles out is an important part of her life. Mama Mia always lets out a quiet sweet little howl when she greets the people she loves the most as her whole body waggles. Mama Mia is as loyal as they come and has earned to have a phenomenal forever home where she doesn’t have to worry about bouncing to other houses and she can have her forever people that she will bond so closely with.

Breed overview
Overview:
The Border-Aussie, a captivating hybrid of the Australian Shepherd and Border Collie, is a relatively new designer breed gaining popularity for its intelligence and athleticism. Originating from the desire to combine the best traits of its highly trainable parent breeds, the Border-Aussie typically exhibits a medium build with a striking, often bi- or tri-colored coat that can be rough or smooth. Temperamentally, they are incredibly intelligent, energetic, and possess a strong work drive, making them eager to learn and excel in various dog sports. While generally good-natured and loyal, their high energy levels and need for mental stimulation make them best suited for active families or individuals who can provide consistent training and plenty of exercise; they are generally not ideal for apartment living. Potential owners should also be aware of common health concerns inherited from their parent breeds, such as hip and elbow dysplasia, eye conditions (like Collie Eye Anomaly), and epilepsy.
