River's Story

Today's Special is River (M) from the Nature's Litter. He was by far the smallest in the litter (he is just now 2.3 pounds) and I was concerned that he wasn't going to make it. But what he lacks in size (2.3 pounds), he makes up for in charm and smarts. In the video (below) he is so proud of himself for navigating the ramp to the food and person. He was recently voted Best Kisser - but there are several strong contenders trying to wisk his title away. Stay tuned for those and more details and there will be more features pups in the coming days. <br/><br/>These cute Border Collie Mix pups were born 09/23/25 and will be ready for furever homes on 11/18/25<br/><br/>Mama Penny was picked up as a very pregnant stray and gave birth the very next day at the shelter. All pups have been safe, well-fed and happy since birth. <br/>When it was safe to move Mom and pups, Clancy's Dream Border Collie Rescue took them in.<br/>Please fill out an Adoption Application if you are interested in adopting one of these cuties. <br/>www.clancysdream.org

Clancy's Dream Inc.'s Adoption Policy
When you adopt any companion animal, especially a rescue, it is a commitment that will affect your lifestyle for many years to come. Do you have the time, energy and resources necessary to devote to a new member of the family? With good care, most Border Collies will live 10 to 17 years. It is critical that you consider what is likely to be happening in your own life — before you adopt a pet. If you can provide a healthy, safe and loving home and would like to adopt a Clancy’s Dream rescued Border Collie the next step is to read our Adoption Process Quick Facts and then complete the Adoption Application. Please note that the application is not an agreement to adopt a pet. Improper placement can end tragically — usually for the dog. This comprehensive application helps us to place the right dog with the right family. An adoption interview will be scheduled either by phone or in person upon review of the application. The level of experience required, need for a fence, adequate exercise space, hours the animal may be left alone, young children and other pets in the home, etc will be discussed in the adoption interview and will be determined according to the need of each dog.
