Freckles - Border Collie Dog for Adoption in Houston, Texas

Hi, my name is Freckles! Im a beautiful three-year-old Border Collie (or at least thats what my people think!) and I weigh about 60 pounds.

My world changed when my owner had to move into a nursing care facility. My best friend, Maddie, and I lost the only home we had ever known, but thankfully a wonderful rescue stepped in to help us find the loving forever homes we deserve.

Im a sweet, gentle girl with a calm nature. Since coming into rescue, Ive learned how to walk on a leashsomething I never needed before because I had a large fenced yard where I could run and explore. I enjoy going on walks and spending time with my people, but I prefer quieter environments over busy, hectic ones.

Im still building my confidence with new experiences, so Ill do best in a home with a securely fenced yard while I settle in. Because of my personality, my caregivers dont think an apartment or condo without a yard would be the right fit for me. With a little patience and encouragement, my confidence continues to grow every day.

I get along well with other dogs, Im calm and well-mannered in the house, and Im not much of a barker. Ive also spent time around my familys grandchildren and did very well. I havent been around cats, so Im hoping for a home without feline roommates.

Im house trained, crate trained, heartworm negative, and currently on heartworm prevention. Im also spayed, microchipped, healthy, and up to date on all of my vaccinations.

If youre looking for a loyal, gentle companion who will quietly steal your heart, I just might be the perfect match.

If youre interested in giving me the forever home Ive been waiting for, please email kamcdm@yahoo.com for an adoption application.
