Introducing - Rosie & Annie

Rosie is 7 years old and Annie is 5 years old. They are both pure bred smooth (short haired) collies, Rosie is a Blue Merle and Annie is Tri colored.  Both girls have been spayed.

Rosie and Annie are related, and have lived together all of their lives. Rosie is Annie's aunt.  Their owner bought them both as puppies at different times.  The owner felt that the family was not spending enough time with the dogs, and wanted them to go to a home that could give them the time that they really want and need.

The girls are polite, sweet, calm, but playful dogs. They have lived with small children all of their lives. They are great with kids, other dogs, cats, hamsters, pet birds ....well they are pretty perfect I guess you might say.  They have no known bad habits or issues. They are normal, sweet collies, that just want someone to love, play and cuddle with.

Rosie and Annie are closely bonded. They are best friends, so we would like them to be adopted together if possible. Its very good for dogs to have a buddy, and since these two already love each other and get along so well, they wont have the issues that sometimes come with bringing a second dog into your home.

Sweet Shelby

Shelby is a 4 1/2  year old, pure bred, rough sable and white female collie that has already been spayed.  Shelby's owners' hearts are broken to have to give up this beautiful sweet girl, but their circumstances required it.

She is great with cats and is very submissive with other dogs. She is well behaved in the house and rides very nicely in the car.  Shelby is pretty timid and shy, so she will need a quiet home with no small children.  There can be another mellow dog to play with or she can be a only dog. It is possible that with some reassurance, she may overcome some of her shyness.  She is very sweet and non aggressive.  Shelby is a velcro dog.  She would like a home preferably with people that would love to spend time just hanging out with her. Like someone that works from home or is retired, etc.

In her foster home, she has attempted to play with the other dogs, but is not real sure about it yet.  She may become more comfortable with time and she does want to play.  She is an "easy" dog.  All she wants are pets and lots of love to make her a happy girl. New 05.01.2008.
