Meet Meatball!

Meatball is an approx 3 month old, 14 lb (as of Sept 6) border collie mix (according to the shelter, Mom was a border collie mix who looked very similar) who we expect to be a medium sized dog once fully grown.
He is sweet, playful, friendly and a typical puppy full of curiosity and just an all around happy little guy.

He will require all of the normal puppy training to set him up for success in life but so far he is doing really well with his crate and potty training.

Meatball is dog and people friendly, a little over zealous around cats but with some training that could be corrected. He would make a nice family dog. He's ready to start his life and find his people....is that you? If so, please fill out our application and a volunteer will get back to you soon!

** Because of his young age, Meatball has not completed his vaccinations and has not been neutered just yet. Hair of the Dog Rescue will cover these costs at our vet but the adopter will be expected to take him to his appointments for treatment.
