Hello! I am Buckaroo! I’ll be 7 years old in November. I’m a Border Collie through and through, which means I would need a semi-active household (not all the time though since geez I’m almost 7!). I’m a big fan of hiking and soft blankets (usually in that order), but my most favorite thing is people. I am crate trained and know a lot of commands, I can even shake with both hands!  My only “bad” quality is that I sometimes nip, but only because I want to herd you due to the nature of my breed. I am a fan of kids and love all other dogs/cats/pets, except squirrels, which I must chase. If you’re looking for a well rounded good boy, I am for you!

If you think you might be interested in adopting, your next step should be to complete an  Adoption Application.  *After you have completed your application, you will get a confirmation that we have received your application. It takes a lot of time to process the applications, so we ask for your patience while we do so. If you see that the dog you were interested in has been adopted it means there were many applications for that dog and we did not get as far as processing your application before a home was found. We welcome you to apply again if you see another dog that interests you.   If you have a question, please email your question to adoptions@caninerescue.org. It is much easier and quicker for us to respond by email as we receive many phone calls each day.

We do adopt out of state, however we do not transport or ship dogs. Potential adopter must be able and willing to travel to the Rescue to meet the dog they are interested in.

*PLEASE double check all of the phone numbers that you provide as if they are incorrect, we will be unable to process your application. Please also let your references know that someone from NCCR will be calling them. Most adoption team members call from their personal phone so advise your references that there may be an unknown number or a private number calling them.
