Border Collie and Mixed Breed Dogs Available for Adoption in Oxford, Michigan

Hello, I'm Carl, I am about 10 months old and weigh 37 pounds right now. I guess I'm pretty cute with all those freckles on my nose, at least that is what all the nice volunteers here at the rescue say.

I'm a friendly and outgoing pup who loves nothing more than being close to my favorite people. I'm always up for a good snuggle and will happily lean into you for some extra love. I love to give lots of kisses too, so look out!

I'm still working on my manners, especially when it comes to jumping up to say hello, but I'm a quick learner and just need a little guidance. Did you see my perfect sit in my pictures? I was told I was such a good boy for my photo shoot, I really want to please you.

I'm also good with other dogs, I have a friendly, open approach with other dogs with an "all in" play style.

I'd make a great addition to an active family who wants a loyal and loving best friend. I am basically always ready for a cuddle or an adventure, the best of both worlds! I will need a home where any children are at least 8 years old. Please come and meet me, I can't wait to grow up with a family to love.

If you are interested in Carl and are at least 21 years old, please come to our kennel during business hours, make an appointment, or fill out an application at k9stray.com and an adoption counselor will be in touch. We look forward to helping you find your new best friend!

*Please check your lease agreements for breed/weight restrictions prior to applying. We also do not do cat testing, so we do not know how a dog will do with cats. Not all dogs are available to go home on the same day you first meet.*

The Border Collie is a highly intelligent and energetic dog breed known for their herding capabilities and exceptional obedience. Originating from the border regions of Scotland and England, these agile and versatile dogs are famous for their focus, stamina, and trainability. With their striking black and white coat and intense gaze, Border Collies excel in various canine sports and activities, making them ideal companions for active families and individuals seeking a loyal and dynamic pet.

The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.
