Kayce's Story

Kayce is a handsome ~4 year old purebred BC who originally came to WBCR from a shelter, so limited info is known about his former life. <br/><br/>Kayce was adopted in 2024 by a family anxious to assimilate Kayce into their busy household, but unfortunately Kayce has never gotten comfortable with a toddler in the home and has reacted badly to kids playing chase/tag, which tends to happen often in a family with multiple kids. <br/><br/>We do know he is a sweet and sensitive boy who wants to be someone’s shadow, occasionally demanding love by shoving his head into your legs or hands. He is an excellent cuddler and loves belly rubs. He bonds deeply with his people and does well with strangers. Kayce does have a strong desire to control movement/chaos, so will only be placed in a home with no/older teenaged children who will monitor him in places where people are playing or running (at home, on trails, or at parks). <br/><br/>Kayce does very well with controlled introductions to other dogs. He is social and playful and has lived with a female BC over the past year without issue and yields to her willingly. He would also be totally happy as a single dog getting all the attention as long as he is not left home alone for long stretches of time. If being left, he has found comfort in another dog being around; his ability to live with cats is unknown. <br/><br/>Kayce comes with many great skills and qualities -- he loves car rides and will wait patiently while you run errands. He sleeps on his bed all night, is fully potty trained, and is good on a leash. He comes with a slew of commands as well: sit, wait, down, out, no, leave it, ok, and has excellent recall once a secure relationship is established with his handler. Kayce is very food motivated, which is great for training time!<br/><br/>Kayce is a medium drive border collie who does best with at least one long walk each day and someoff-leash fun as well: fetch, hiking, running, camping or any outdoor adventure! <br/><br/>Kayce has allergies that are controlled with once a day Apoquel and a limited ingredient food year round. This handsome red and white boy is neutered, and is fully vaccinated. <br/><br/>Due to our small volunteer team, we can’t respond to inquiries to this listing.
