Sleet's Story

Sleet is a curious, brave and playful Lab, Husky and Beagle mix born in rescue on March 14. He loves stuffed toys, being outside and meeting new people wherever he goes. Being out in the sun is his happy place! He's down for any adventure, anytime.<br/><br/>Cuddly, loving and very sweet, Sleet is enjoying life on the go with his foster family. He's visited multiple farms and met horses, seen people riding, encountered bikes, cars and other traffic. Restaurant patios and playtime at the beach (including digging in the sand!) were big hits too. He looks up to his foster canine sibling, learning how to walk on leash and when its playtime versus time to chill.<br/><br/>He crates nicely through the night and for short period during the day. Potty training is going great - he needs breaks roughly every 3-4 hours during the day. He's a smart guy who loves doing anything his people want to do. He heard about this thing called obedience classes where he gets time with his family and lots of treats. He cant wait!<br/><br/>Sleet weighs about 18# and will be the perfect size for accompanying his people everywhere. He has medium energy and is suited to a family that likes daily exercise and time chilling together. He would love a canine sibling to pal around with, can live with dog-savvy cats and older kids that understand how to redirect puppy teeth. A fenced yard is his dream, or a safe space to run and play.<br/><br/>Ongoing socialization will ensure he can lead the life he was meant to. Sleet's ideal family wants to help him learn to be a good canine citizen, has a puppy-friendly schedule, and most importantly, sees the joy in life just like he does.<br/><br/>Sleet is READY to meet his forever family and start his life with them. He is a once-in-a-lifetime companion!<br/><br/>APPLY to adopt him at hoabcr.org/how-to-adopt<br/><br/>Sleet is being fostered in Coon Rapids, MN.<br/><br/>Sleet's adoption fee is $550 + MN sales tax (this includes his neuter). He is up to date on age-appropriate vaccines. He will be neutered and microchipped at the age of roughly 6 months. The cost of this procedure is included in his adoption fee. 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.

Heart of a Border Collie Rescue's Adoption Policy
Please read 'Do You Have What It Takes' on our website (www.hoabcr.org/how-to-adopt) before applying to adopt a dog through our rescue. You may also find information about Border Collies helpful (www.hoabcr.org/border-collie-info). Steps in our adoption process include: 1) Filling out an application. Taking this step indicates you are truly interested in adopting a dog - it is not binding. 2) If your application meets the requirements for the dog you're interested in, it will be screened through an initial interview with one of our volunteers. If your application does not meet the requirements, you will not be contacted. 3) If we determine your home could be a good fit for one of our dogs, we will complete reference and vet checks, and set up a home visit, which may occur in person or virtually. 4) If approved, details about your application are sent to the foster that has the dog that you're interested in. If the foster feels you are a match for their foster dog, they will call you to talk in detail about the dog, and possibly move to an in-person meeting. Meetings are allowed AFTER applications are fully approved as described above. 5) If that dog is not deemed to be a good match, we may suggest another dog for you, or your application will be kept on file for a potential future dog. 6) Adoption is complete with payment and a signed adoption contract. Our adoption fees are specified in individual Petfinder listings. The fee includes spay/neuter, microchip, heartworm and Lyme tests, rabies & distemper & Bordetella vaccinations (if old enough). Our dogs go to their new homes with a collar, harness, leash, rescue ID tag, starter food, toys and blanket. We are required to charge appropriate MN sales tax.
