Get ready to meet your brand new BFF! Meet BJ, a roughly 3 year-old Border collie / lab mix who weighs around 55-60 pounds (as of 10/8)). This handsome fellow was born to a momma who is an owned pet with a loving family, but was never fixed. His owner could no longer care for him which is sad for BJ but great for you!

BJ is much more handsome than his pictures here - we just moved him north this week so stay tuned for new ones. This boy is a looker!!

He is great with kids and dogs and is longing for a family to bring all his love too.

He seems housebroken - though of course it might take him a few days to get used to your home and learn the ropes. But he aims to please and likes things clean.

He is also adept at riding in the car too. Which means he will happily be your sidekick for any adventure.

We have been so sad about how long this boy has been overlooked on our website - so we moved him north because we know the minute we get new pictures someone will take a chance on him. And that once that someone meets him - they won't be able to wait another second to take him home!!

All dogs are up to date on vaccinations and spayed/neutered at the time of adoption. All dogs require professional training to become the best family member they can be.

PLEASE READ: If a dog is listed, then s/he is currently available for adoption. Their information is correct to the best of our abilities and the information we have been given as of the day of posting. Please note, GDRNE does not guarantee the breed of any dog or puppy unless stated that we have run DNA. All breeds listed are educated estimates. Note that if the dog is listed as an "Out of town pet" there are NOT additional transport fees - it is included in our adoption fee Our dogs are rescued from various situations. It is most likely that both their parents were strays and even if not, mixes of some sort and that their grandparents were mixes as well. The dog may have some genetic material of an American Staffordshire Terrier (pit bull). The dogs are usually mixes of many breeds, making them a breed all their own - a True and adorable American MUTT. If you are interested in this dog, you must submit an application. Great Dog is not a shelter so there is no building you can visit. Our dogs live in private foster homes until adopted.
