Bolt - Collie and Shepherd Dog for Adoption in Boulder, Colorado

Bolt, his 7 siblings, and his Momma were found living in a drainage ditch in Texas when the pups were just a few weeks old. A woman fed them for a couple days until she was able to find a rescue to take them in. The rescue in nursed the pups and Momma back to health for days. It took a little while for Momma to realize they were finally safe. Momma and babies were transferred here when they were old enough to do so safety. They have now been vetted, fixed, and well socialized. They are ready to find forever, loving families of their own!

Momma Dottie is about 12lbs, and we don't know who dad was. We are guessing the pups will be about 20-30lbs when full grown. They are all incredibly sweet, loving, playful, and just absolutely perfect.
