Her green eyes grab you and don’t let go! McBride is affectionate, inquisitive, observant, bold, and Mensa smart. Favorite pastimes are sniffing around the yard for news of the day, and closely watching her foster canine siblings… then mirroring their behaviors. Whispering sweet nothings in her ear results in puppy cuddles that can’t be beat. She is a female Border Collie and Australian Shepherd mix born in late August 2024, currently 9 #, likely to mature around 35-40 #.

Described as an easy puppy who is happy to entertain herself, McBride’s foster mom chose “Miss Independent” by Kelly Clarkson as her theme song. She’s brave and confident. Ready for a life of adventure. This flexible, medium-energy pup could adapt to a variety of lifestyles, making her a great fit for both active families and those who enjoy a more relaxed vibe.

McBride loves puzzle toys and learning new things – she will be a dream to train! Wants to keep her mind engaged through obedience classes for good manners, and stay healthy with daily neighborhood walks. Bigger adventures like road trips to see friends or camping are right up her alley. As long as she is with her humans, the sky is the limit!

She’s learning all the things puppies need to know: how to walk nicely on leash, spend time in a crate, and basic manners. She picked up the routine in her foster home in record time, happily going outside for potty breaks and learning every day. McBride would do well with older dog-savvy kids. She happily interacts with the dogs in her foster home. Equally as content as an only dog.

McBride is ready to partner with her human and live an amazing life! If she sounds like your kind of best friend, APPLY to adopt her at hoabcr.org/how-to-adopt

McBride is being fostered in Hudson, WI.

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.

McBride's adoption fee is $550 + MN sales tax. She is up to date on age-appropriate vaccines. She will be spayed (and microchipped) by the rescue at the age of 6 months at one of the vet clinics we work with. The cost of this procedure is included in her adoption fee. 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.

Peter, affectionately known as “Petey,” is an endearing young pup ready to find his forever home. He’s friendly and playful at home, where he feels most comfortable. He loves to snuggle for affection on the couch and has a charmingly awkward demeanor. You can’t help but laugh at his antics! Born in early May 2024, currently 26 #. Momma looks to be a herding mix and Daddy is a mystery - any guesses?

Eager to learn about the world around him, Petey’s confidence grows each day. He is shy when meeting new people. Best with positive, unpressured exposure to new things. He is a homebody at heart and will thrive in a quieter household. He would adore the company of older, calm kids who understand he wants to build trust before revealing his whole heart.

Like any teenaged boy, Petey is a big fan of treats and food in general. He will happily entertain himself with any chew or toy as well. He requests moderate exercise, making him a perfect fit for a family that balances daily walks with cozy evenings at home. He would enjoy another dog in the home for camaraderie, and will also be ok as an only dog.

The perfect family for Petey will provide opportunities for gentle, intentional socialization and positive training techniques. He is crate-trained and does well on a leash with encouragement – as he gains faith in himself, he will enjoy outings even more. While he hasn’t been exposed to cats, we believe he would be polite and respectful to kitties in the home. Physically fenced yards are preferred to allow him a safe space to play.

Foster mom says: “Petey deserves a family that can show him the world is a safe, fun place. They will be rewarded with a loyal, affectionate family member who lives to spend time with them!”

If you’re ready to open your heart and home to a loving, gentle companion, Peter is eager to meet you! Let’s help him discover that the world can be a safe, happy place!

Petey is being fostered in St. Louis Park, MN. APPLY to adopt him at hoabcr.org/how-to-adopt

29/10/2024

That face! Adorable Samuel is a Border Collie/Australian Shepherd mix born at the end of July. He’s everything a smart, active puppy should be: playful, curious and loving. Also right on track is his interest in food – he’s a growing boy! Sign him up for cozy cuddles at the end of a fun day.

Samuel loves to learn, making huge strides with leash walking, basic obedience commands, and overall confidence. He is learning to keep 4 on the floor for polite greetings, how to chill in his crate, and what he can (and should not) chew on during his teething phase.

Connection is the name of the game with Samuel. He is completely attentive to his humans and anything they are doing – he wants in! Families that are looking for an engaged, smart dog and plan to incorporate him smack dab in the middle of their activities are a great fit. He wants a life of play (fetch is favorite), daily exercise to keep his people healthy, and outings to see the big world.

Samuel met elementary school-aged kids and loved the attention they showered on him. Kids that are old enough to help reinforce good behaviors are a good fit. He is perfecting his housetraining skills and needs a potty break every few hours. Obedience classes are a must for this smarty, and the learning doesn’t have to stop there.

He would enjoy the company of another friendly pup in his new home. With an engaged family, he could be an only dog. We prefer a physically fenced yard for Samuel, or a mature family with a history of keeping dogs safe on leash.

Samuel is being fostered in Minneapolis, MN. APPLY TO ADOPT him at hoabcr.org/how-to-adopt

Samuel’s adoption fee is $550 + MN sales tax. He is up to date on age-appropriate vaccines. He will be microchipped soon and neutered by the rescue at the age of 6 months at one of the vet clinics we work with. Samuel has an umbilical hernia that will be repaired at the time of his neuter surgery. It does not cause him pain or discomfort. The cost of both procedures are included in his adoption fee.

Have you heard of the Pupstanding app?? Do you already use it?? If so, we would love to hear what you find most helpful in the comments below!! We recommend this app for puppy (and dog!) socialization. It's essentially a list of things to introduce your dog to, organized in checklists by category (sights, sounds, surfaces, people, handling). Such a great resource to make sure you are covering all things socialization!! Available on Google Play and the AppStore.

We are incredibly grateful.

One thing that makes the rescue world go round is partnerships. We have rescue partners, and we are partners in the truest sense of the words. We stand with them and help each other whenever we can. Sometimes we reach out when they are struggling and say “what can we do that will help the most”
Well, this week was one of those times.

Meet Belinda. We have been watching this pup being passed over since mid August. When puppies are picked up after some rough months, there is such hope for a new beginning, but Belinda sat… still waiting.

Welp, after the last plea for Belinda, we said “send her.”

No, she is not a border collie. She is a dog who has been in outdoor boarding at an over crowded vet for 8 weeks now and she needed a place. Boarding costs money. Money that is so valuable in helping to continue to save lives. Plus, a beautiful pup saw all those around her get chosen, yet she sat alone.

Saying yes helps a dog. But saying yes can also sometimes mean so much more. It can lift up a rescue partner who is losing hope for a dog and needs someone to hear their plea.

So, we will welcome Belinda tonight. She is one of ours now.
Her life will be better while she waits to find her forever home, and her rescuer can breathe a sigh of relief, knowing a warm bed awaits.

Belinda will be looking for a foster. Please consider opening your heart and hope to help her on her journey. We supply EVERYTHING you need. Fostering is of no cost to you, but it’s worth its weight in gold to them❤️

Zoe is silly, bouncy and clumsy in the most adorable way. Friendly. Energetic and smart! Not at all surprising because her DNA includes Cattle Dog, Husky and Terrier… she got the best traits from each breed. She’s looking for a home that shares her personality traits (probably minus the clumsy part). She was born in February 2024, currently 35 #.

Her theme song is “Happy” by Pharrell Williams. Just like the song, it’s hard to be around Zoe and not be lifted up by her antics and love of life. Toys that squeak, bones and sticks at the park are her favorite things. People are her favorite beings! She lives in an apartment setting and joyfully greets people and dogs she meets around town. Perhaps a run for Mayor is in her future?

Zoe’s life motto is “Let’s do it!” She is looking for a family that is on the go, just like she is. She wants to take them on daily walks and spend time running off leash in safe spaces, showing off her goofy (and clutzy) side. Loves to learn new things and smell new smells. After a day of fun with her people, curls up in a happy little ball on the couch to snooze the evening away.

Her perfect home loves smart dogs and wants to engage in continued training for mental stimulation. Best with kids aged double digits. Another dog with similar energy is a good fit with humans that will ensure her puppy enthusiasm isn’t too much. Also be fine as an only dog. Crates beautifully, walks well on leash with the occasional reminder that pulling doesn’t work. She’s getting used to loud vehicles passing by with redirection and positive reinforcement. She is not a fan of water – maybe those Husky roots? She is inquisitive about kitties and could live with dog-savvy cats.

Zoe has a ton of love – and laughs – ready for her forever family. She can’t wait to meet them!

APPLY TO ADOPT her at hoabcr.org/how-to-adopt

10/10/2024

Handsome Bentley is much more than his supermodel good looks. He’s a smart, optimistic gentleman who loves his family more than anything. His heart lies in his work: patrolling the property, supervising his foster human children, keeping watch over foster chickens, and the serious pursuit of chasing a tennis ball. Bentley is a 2 yr old, 50 # mix that we think includes both Border Collie and Great Pyrenees, based on his personality and behaviors.

Bentley is looking for a family that will keep him mentally and physically busy every day. He is not a pet dog for a first-time owner, or a casual weekend hiker. He currently lives on a large property and spends most of his day on the go: morning chores, getting the kids to the bus, a run with foster mom, evening chores, helping kids with homework, and everything in between. When not outside working in some capacity, he is inside playing with a toy or dog puzzle. He wants to be on the go with a clear purpose to each task.

The ideal family for Bentley respects his need to be engaged with his people and in activities he finds meaningful. They will provide him with outlets for his physical energy and ways to use his bright mind. He’s a great fit for a home in the country and could adapt to life “in town” if he has enough to do. It’s important to Bentley that he be able to stretch his legs in an unrestrained romp most days of the week, whether this is in a fenced yard, with the help of invisible fencing, or on his family’s acreage.

Respectful of children. Happy as an only dog. Peacefully coexists with his foster canine siblings but does not look to them for direction or companionship. His entire reason for being rests firmly in the grip of his humans. Reliably housetrained. Prefers being contained in a small room/mud room versus a crate (will accept a crate). Walks nicely on leash in a Gentle Leader, and doesn’t miss anything moving within his sight. He is vocal when bored or when he sees other dogs; not a candidate for homes with shared walls.

Bentley’s behavior around his family and home are characteristic of a Great Pyrenees (protective, ever-watchful, unconditionally devoted). In order to readily accept visitors to the home, he will need focused training and socialization. He also displays herding tendencies from his suspected Border Collie roots. Combined with his exceptional intelligence, he is a remarkable dog suited for a very particular type of family.

If you can provide the type of home Bentley is looking for, he will be the most loyal, reliable and loving addition to your family. APPLY to adopt him at hoabcr.org/how-to-adopt

Bentley is being fostered in Annandale, MN.

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.

Meet Hazel (private rehoming)

Smart; Loyal; Independent; Motivated. Sweet Hazel is looking for a new home that will help her continue to live her best and fullest life. This beautiful 7-year-old Australian Shepherd is a 45 lb bundle of fluff and love. With patient and compassionate humans and the right home environment, she will thrive and make a wonderful companion.

Hazel has medium energy for her breed. She enjoys working on skills or puzzles (very food motivated), exploring and sniffing on low-key walks, and even going for occasional runs (max 3 miles these days). Hazel has good on-leash skills but is uncomfortable meeting unknown dogs. She has also built confidence off-leash in non-public areas.

Hazel is a great match for a family who appreciates intelligent, working breeds and connecting deeply with their dogs. She will thrive with an established routine in a calm home without kids or additional animals. That said, she currently lives happily with a 2-year-old Border Collie brother. A low-stimulation environment would be ideal (i.e. quiet neighborhood or even a rural setting). She would love a fenced yard to frolic freely in her own space but is also suited to a family that keeps their dogs safe on leash. She is trustworthy indoors when her humans are not at home. Her new owners would ideally have experience with positive reinforcement training and understand dog body language (she is very communicative of her needs/boundaries if you know what to look for).

She takes a while to warm up to and build trust with any new humans – but once you're in, you're in and she will be very loyal and loving. She has struggled with anxiety and reactive tendencies but has come a long way in the past 4 years in a loving household with humans that have helped build her confidence in being a dog. She takes one 40mg capsule of fluoxetine (Prozac) daily to keep her excitement threshold low; this ends up costing us about $12 every two months.

She is spayed and is up to date on all vaccinations and heartworm/tick protection.

Her current family has welcomed a new baby and is proactively taking steps to ensure that Hazel continues to be in an environment where she will feel safe and confident. It breaks our hearts to give up such a special member of our home, but we know it's the right thing for Hazel. She will be with us until she is matched with her new humans. We will answer any/all specific questions about her training, needs, etc. during the rehoming process
We’ve compiled a playlist of videos featuring Hazel on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLgsLjKYCXrr7vZQTSxghI9nS85G1JKjZQ

If sweet Hazel sounds like a match for your family, please contact us at [email protected] to discuss next steps in more detail. A rehoming fee may be negotiated between the parties.

Tabitha and Tucker have gone home….. TOGETHER!! ❤️ After spending four long years in the shelter, these two are living the dream with a mom who loves them dearly and a fenced yard to play in! Tabitha and Tucker arrived at the shelter at four months old, just babies who had never know what a home was. This required very special and patient foster homes. Dede and Kandi provided just that. They opened their homes to these shy pups, and allowed them the time and space to open up on their own terms. We could not be more grateful for their love and dedication. Dede and Kandi, you guys are rockstars! Happy life, Tabitha and Tucker!! #fosteringsaveslives #imnotcryingyourecrying

Our Story

Heart of a Border Collie Rescue is an all-volunteer, registered 501(c)3 non-profit organization dedicated to the rehoming of border collies in need (and other herding breeds/border collie crosses) from Minnesota, the Dakotas, and neighboring states. While dogs are with us waiting for loving and permanent homes, we provide them with temporary housing in approved foster homes throughout the Twin Cities and outstate Minnesota, proper medical care, training, rehabilitation, and education of their prospective adopters.
