We have had people bus one of their own crates to us, but generally a crate is bought at the airline. All dogs that come through rescue organizations are spayed or neutered. As with the Humane Societies, this is a requirement. By doing it when the dogs are actually in the rescue channel, none slip through the cracks unaltered. If you are interested in breeding Border Collies, we would be more than happy to refer you to a reputable Border Collie breeder.
Rescue needs more and more volunteers all the time.
Currently in Rescue organizations, there is a small group of people doing the work. We don't want these wonderful people to burn out. While they are always sad to leave their foster parents, as are the foster parents sad to see them go, they need a home, and loving parents of their own. This is the most pressing need in rescue. The volunteers who do foster work find it very rewarding.
