Ash - Border Collie Dog for Adoption in Cumming, Georgia

Meet Ash — He’s Ready to Belong Again

Ash had a person once. He had a home. And then his owner passed away.

Sadly, when Ash’s world changed, there wasn’t anyone in the family willing to take him in. He ended up living outside, waiting for someone to figure out what would happen to him. Eventually, his situation became urgent and a kind person stepped forward to make sure Ash didn’t get left behind. That’s when Paws of the South Rescue took responsibility for him and promised him something he desperately needed — another chance.

And Ash hasn’t let his past change who he is.

Ash is a 5-year-old Border Collie weighing about 45 pounds, and he is one of those dogs who genuinely seems happiest just being close to someone. He loves human touch, seeks out affection, and wants very much to please. Give him attention and you’ll quickly see just how much being with people means to him.

He’s also good with other dogs and has a wonderfully sweet, friendly nature. More than anything, Ash seems ready to trade his days of living outside for the things he has been missing — a soft place to sleep, someone to follow from room to room, rides in the car, walks together, and a person who won’t disappear from his life.

The rescue has gotten Ash started on his veterinary care and vaccinations, and his neuter is being arranged.

At five years old, Ash isn’t asking anyone to raise a puppy. He’s already a grown dog with a beautiful personality who simply needs the next chapter of his life to be the one that lasts.

Ash lost his person once. Then he lost his home.
This time, we’d like to find him someone he can keep.

If you’ve been looking for a sweet, affectionate dog who truly wants to be part of someone’s life, Ash may have been waiting for you.
