My name is Remington - Remy is my short name. I am a really handsome border collie/shepherd mix who looks more like a border collie. I weigh about 35 pounds and I am neutered. I will be 2 years old in September 2011. Although I am a little shy when I first meet people I make up very quickly and just love attention. I'm not used to riding in a car but I settle down quickly so everyone thinks I would really like car rides if I had the opportunity to go for rides more often. I have lived on a farm since I was born, but my brother and I tend to roam when we are together so that's why my owners want to find me a different home. They are afraid my brother and I will get hit by a car because they don't have time to train us. If you give me a chance, you'll see that I just want to be loved and I want to learn new things and to please my owners. I have never lived with small children, but I think I'd like them--I just may accidentally knock over a little one. The border collie in me may want to herd children because I like to herd the cattle on the farm where I live. I was never trained to walk on a leash, but learn fast and I am trainable. The lady who evaluated me thought I did well on a leash and will only get better with practice. I haven't been trained, but I have learned to sit on command.
My owners say that my brother, Rex, is the leader and I am the follower. I would like very much to follow you home?
Applications are the first step in the adoption process. Please do not call or email simply to express interest. We are all volunteers and receiving your application saves us time and helps to determine the best match for both people and dogs.
We provide as much information as we currently have on each dog in their description. For questions on the adoption process, including fees, please review the Adoption page. If you have additional questions or are interested in adopting, please fill out an adoption application. Once we receive your application someone will be in touch to answer your questions.
We do not arrange visits to meet dogs without an application. If you'd like to meet a variety of dogs without filling out an application please attend one of our events, listed under the events link.
Thank you!
