Description
Dog Breed: Collie (long coat). Yukon is a 6-year-old Rough Collie with a unique look —he has blue merle head, mostly white coat, and beautiful heterochromatic eyes. This sweet, gentle boy loves to snuggle, go for walks, play fetch, explore the backyard, and never turns down a good treat. Yukon gets along well with both dogs and cats and has a calm, loving nature that makes him a wonderful companion. Yukon isn’t a fan of sudden loud noises. When things get a little overwhelming, he enjoys the space to go to another room and unwind until he’s ready to come back for more love. Being a herding breed, he does have a tendency to try and herd the people around him if they are running. Because of this, families with no children or children 10 and older would probably be the best match for Yukon. He is about 65 lbs. To help pay for vet bills and care (transportation, food, toys, etc..) a $300 donation is requested at the time of adoption. All of our adoptions are contingent upon an approved application, home visit, reference check, obedience training agreement, and signing of adoption contract. All our dogs are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped before adoption. Our dogs are companion animals that live indoors as part of your family. Please do not apply if your plan is to have them as outside dogs, garage dogs, porch dogs or outside kennel dogs. We do not ship dogs. All of our dogs are in private foster homes. We are not a shelter with hours. A visit can be arranged after an adoption questionnaire has been filled out and sent in. Please try to email first. We are all volunteers that work so we can not easily take or make phone calls.

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.
