Animal Information:

Meet Cobbler! He and his 3 siblings are 12 weeks old Border Collie mixes (best guess) and will be joining us from California along with their mom Brownie on 06/11/2026.

Foster Profile:

Cobbler is a 3-month-old Border Collie mix with a gentle heart. While he may be a little shy when meeting new people, it doesn't take long for his sweet nature to shine through. He's looking for a patient family who can help him build confidence and continue discovering that the world isn't such a scary place.

When Cobbler feels nervous, he'll often seek comfort by tucking himself between your legs or finding a cozy corner where he feels safe. With a little encouragement, he warms up and shows just how lovable he is.

For such a young puppy, Cobbler is incredibly smart and learns quickly. He’s already doing well on leash and happily walks by your side. He has a great recall for his age and enjoys playing chase with respectful children. As a typical growing pup, he’s currently teething and picks up anything he finds.

Cobbler loves spending time outdoors, especially relaxing in a shady spot on warm days. He's currently working on house training and learning basic commands. He's making great progress and is eager to keep learning!

Cobbler would thrive with someone who understands that confidence grows with patience and positive experiences. If you're looking for a sweet, clever companion and are excited to help a young puppy blossom, Cobbler might just be your perfect match.
