Border Collie Dogs Available for Adoption in Richmond, California

Mr. Fox earned his name in a tough way-he arrived with his feet painfully wrapped after foxtails had burrowed into them, likely from spending a long time out on the streets. Despite everything he's been through, this gentle boy has shown nothing but sweetness. He leans into affection and clearly wants to connect, even while he's still not feeling his best.

Right now, he's a bit hesitant about walking outside, which may be tied to the discomfort he's experienced in his feet. As he continues to heal and recover, we expect his true personality to shine through even more. Already, he's showing signs of being a low-energy companion who enjoys closeness and companionship.

Mr. Fox has the potential to be a wonderful family-friendly dog. He's affectionate, eager to learn, and responds well to both food and love as motivation. With continued patience, he'll benefit from further socialization with both people and other dogs, helping him build confidence and feel safe in the world again.

Given time, care, and a loving home, Mr. Fox is sure to blossom into a loyal, social, and deeply loving companion.
