Collie and Mixed Breed Dogs Available for Adoption in Bastrop, Texas

It's hard to believe a pretty girl like Wella needed help with improving her confidence and socialization skills. She is doing great in foster care and has improved so much in just two weeks but she really needs a home of her own where she can continue to blossom. Due to her shy, timid personality she would do best in a quiet home with a predictable schedule. She enjoys the simple things in life like hanging out with her people and dog friends outside on the patio in the evening/morning when the weather is cooler and she has learned that during the heat of the day, the best place to be is on a soft dog bed inside the air conditioning. She probably wouldn't enjoy a busy lifestyle with things like going for walks/hikes in parks, going out shopping/dining, or taking long car rides. At three years old, she's past the wild and crazy puppy stage and has a nice, calm, sweet-natured personality. If you're looking for a shy homebody, she just might be your girl. The link for her application is at the bottom of the post.

The Collie is a graceful and intelligent dog known for their loyalty, gentle nature, and exceptional herding abilities. They come in two coat varieties, rough and smooth, with colors ranging from sable and white to blue merle. Collies excel in obedience training and thrive on mental stimulation and physical activity. Their keen intuition and strong bond with their owners make them wonderful family pets and reliable working dogs in tasks such as herding livestock or in search and rescue missions.

The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.
