Border Collie and Australian Shepherd Dogs Available for Adoption

Bingo is a 3-year-old, 50-pound Border Collie mix with a bright spirit and a love for the outdoors. He came to Good Catch in late February after his previous family made the difficult decision to surrender him, believing he deserved a fuller, more active life. We couldn’t agree more.

Bingo thrives outside and would happily spend most of his day there. In fact, sometimes he needs a little encouragement to come back inside! He loves splashing in the doggie pool and playing tag with the many dog friends he’s made in rescue. His cheerful, easygoing energy makes him an instant favorite with other dogs.

Because he enjoys staying active and exploring, Bingo would do best in a home with a securely fenced yard and plenty of enrichment. At his foster home, he spends time “counting cows” and keeping a careful eye on the cats. Unfortunately, he’s not a fan of them and will chase, so a cat-free home is recommended unless the cats live safely separated in a barn setting.

Inside the home, Bingo is the definition of a polite gentleman. This fuzzy tuxedo boy has wonderful house manners and can be trusted with free roam. At bedtime, he happily heads to his crate—door open—and settles in for the night.

Bingo would make a wonderful companion for an active family, especially one with children. His previous home included kids, and he has proven himself to be a kind and playful friend to people of all ages.
