Robin (private rehoming)

Meet Robin, a 20-month-old, 60# Border Collie/Black Lab mix who is, quite simply, a total goober. Goofy, expressive, naturally funny, and always ready to brighten the room with his antics. His family loves him deeply, but after a recent move and human health challenges, they’ve made the heartbreaking decision to find him a home better suited to his needs. The family lucky enough to add Robin to their lives will gain an incredible companion with so much to offer. He is located in Bellingham, Washington (less than 90 min from Seattle).<br/><br/>If you’ve heard the expression “personality plus” it was no doubt in reference to Robin. He’s sweet, cuddly, and loyal. Whether he’s proudly adding to his daily stick collection or inventing a new game, he brings an effortless charm to everything he does. Loves playing with his people: fetch, puzzles, you name it. Whip-smart, eager to learn, and motivated to please. Mastered basic obedience skills, crate trained, and walks nicely on leash after the excitement of the outing wears off a bit.<br/><br/>If you’re an outdoorsy soul, Robin is your perfect match. He’s an adventure buddy with plenty of energy for hikes, camping, and weekend exploring. Daily exercise is the way to his heart, and an occasional bigger excursion is icing on the cake. When activity winds down, he’s ready to enjoy cuddle time with his favorite people.<br/><br/>Robin is a fit for families with older kids and has lived with cats in the past. He gets along well with other dogs and would love a canine companion in his new home or could be an only dog.<br/><br/>Robin’s health is managed through a hydrolyzed protein diet to keep his sensitive tummy stable. He takes seizure-prevention medication for episodes that occur roughly twice per year. The total cost for his specialized food and medication is about $180/mo, which is certainly a consideration for his new family. The return on investment is incalculable: it’s the reward of sharing life with an extraordinary dog.<br/><br/>If you’re looking for a bright, affectionate, endlessly entertaining companion, Robin may just be the perfect addition to your family. He can’t wait to bring laughter, love, and lots of his precious sticks into his new home.<br/><br/>APPLY TO ADOPT this handsome lad at hoabcr.org/how-to-adopt<br/><br/>Heart of a Border Collie will be screening applications for Robin.
