Please don't forget our rescue efforts when it comes time for giving during the holiday season. Think about what a special gift a donation made in someone's name would make for not only that person, but also a rescue dog in need. Don't forget that rescue dogs require food and medicines, and the advertising, transport, mailings, etc. for our rescue group require money as well. Even more so, we can expect to be inundated with new rescue dogs not long after the holiday season, as some families soon realize that a Border Collie was not meant for them. Please send in your donations or you can contribute food, supplies, or medicines - or even volunteer your time.
Every little bit helps.
The greatest thing about rescue dogs is that almost inevitably, they are out of the puppy stage. Not only do you avoid this with a rescue dog, but most importantly, we already know what the dog is like . If you have children, are looking for a dog to do something particular, or have some idea of what you would like in a dog, rescue is the way to go. If I give you a pup, I cannot tell you exactly what that pup will grow up to be like, personality, working ability, etc. With a rescue, I can tell you exactly what to expect from any particular dog.
