Beautiful Blackie

This Australian Shepherd/Collie is up for adoption and in need of a loving home.

Blackie is a gorgeous boy who is looking for a forever home! He was abandoned, along with his friend/sibling Brownie (see photo 3) in the neighborhood of a good samaritan. This kind person took them to Animal Control, thinking that the dogs would be reclaimed. When no one came looking, she adopted them as her own, and had them fully vetted. Unfortunately, the dog that she already has is not happy at all with the new family members, to the point of becoming ill over it, so the lady who rescued the dogs is looking for a great home for each of them. She tells us that Blackie is about a year and a half old, and weighs about 50 lbs. He is a friendly, sweet boy with tons of energy and enthusiasm. He is looking for a home with an active person or family, preferably with a large fenced yard where he can run and run to his heart's delight. He would make a great farm dog, as he has a herding dog's instincts. Blackie will make a wonderful pet for some lucky person or family. If you would like to meet him, please use the contact his foster mom directly at thejuber@hotmail.com.

Blackie is fully vetted -- neutered, heartworm negative, and current on vaccinations and deworming.
