Description
Dog Breed: Shetland Sheepdog Sheltie (medium coat). A COMPLETED APPLICATION IS REQUIRED BEFORE ANY CONVERSATION ABOUT ADOPTING FROM OUR ORGANIZATION. PLEASE GO TO OUR WEBSITE AT .colliesheltierescue AND READ ABOUT THE BASIC REQUIREMENTS (GOOD PHONE INTERVIEW, SECURELY FENCED YARD, FABULOUS REFERENCE FROM YOUR VETERINARIAN AND A HOME VISIT.) I KNOW THAT SOUNDS LIKE A LOT BUT WE SCREEN CAREFULLY FOR THE SAKE OF THE DOGS. THEY DESERVE IT! Every once in a while a Sheltie puppy comes into our rescue. And we all go "WOW!" Some lucky family will be the right match for Rory. He is a 7-month-old neutered male purebred sable and white Sheltie. And he is a hoot! He enjoys the company of all of my dogs, large and small. Rory is a very active player and must have the fun of a gaggle of dogs. In fact, we will not place him with a family that does not have other pooches for him to run around with. Kids would be great too, as long as they are old enough to interact nicely with a small dog. And he is little at 18#. He has been raised on the Farmer's Dog recipes that are packaged just for him and he will come with a good supply of his food as well as every "extra" his family has provided for him. Multiple dog beds and blankies, tons of toys (lots of them interactive to keep his little brain engaged), etc. Since Rory is a tiny genius, he will be screening applications with me on the computer. As of today, we will make him available. But there will be a flood of applications to go through, so please be patient. We will contact the families that have an appropriate situation for Rory and arrange for them to meet him. But, as much as we hate to disappoint people, we will only work with folks who will give him the best life ever! Doggies first!

Breed overview
Overview:
A mongrel, mutt, or mixed-breed dog, is a dog that is not the result of breeding within an existing breed or to modify or create a breed and belongs to no breed. In the United States, the term "mixed-breed" is a favored synonym over "mongrel" among many who wish to avoid negative connotations associated with the latter term. The implication that such dogs must be a mix of defined breeds may stem from an inverted understanding of the origins of dog breeds. Pure breeds have been, for the most part, artificially created from random-bred populations by human selective breeding with the purpose of enhancing desired physical, behavioral, or temperamental characteristics. Dogs that are not purebred are not necessarily a mix of such defined breeds. Therefore, among experts and fans of such dogs, "Mongrel" is still the preferred term.
