Sheffy - adopted's Story

Sheffy is ready to find his perfect match! He’s a strikingly handsome 2-3 yr old, 39# Border Collie mix. Affectionate, curious, observant, and deeply connected to his people, Sheffy pays attention to everything. He enjoys keeping watch over the yard, exploring the great outdoors, and swimming & playing in the water (see video). When it's time to chill, he is happy to curl up in a cozy dog bed with a Kong and relax.<br/><br/>Sheffy is a medium-energy boy: busy and engaged without being a four-legged tornado. His happy place is outside: folks who enjoy exploring, hiking, gardening, or any excuse to be outside are a great match. A calm, patient home where he can continue building confidence with his trusted humans will help him shine. His theme song is “Don’t Stop Believin’” by Journey - a family that believes in him will make him unstoppable.<br/><br/>Loves other dogs and could easily have a canine sibling, and he could also be your one-and-only pup. Herding breed experience is preferred. Settles after a few minutes in a crate, although he firmly believes cozy dog beds are a better choice.<br/><br/>Great fit for families with older kids who enjoy being active without chaos. Unphased by traffic, bikes or other dogs while out on a walk. He learns quickly and wants to make his people happy. Easily lived with a dog-savvy kitty in his foster home.<br/><br/>Return Sheffy’s trust and you’ll see his joyful personality grow every day. He’s a happy, loyal boy who loves unconditionally. The lucky family that ends up winning Sheffy’s heart will gain a once-in-a-lifetime best friend. <br/><br/>APPLY to adopt this amazing guy at hoabcr.org/how-to-adopt<br/><br/>Sheffy is being fostered in Rochester, MN.<br/><br/>His adoption fee is $450 + MN sales tax. He is neutered, microchipped and up to date on age-appropriate vaccines. Upon adoption, all of our dogs go to their new homes with a collar and harness, leash, starter food, blanket, favorite toys & treats. They are current on flea/tick and heartworm prevention.<br/><br/>As a foster-based rescue, we do not have a central facility to visit. Meet and greets with specific dogs are arranged once your adoption application (not an inquiry through Petfinder) has been received, processed, and approved. We are located in Minnesota and adopt to an area 400 miles from Minneapolis/St. Paul.
