Harvey

  • Sex: Male

  • Age: 16 Months

  • Coat: Smooth Coat, Black & White

  • Weight: 40-50 lbs.

  • Activity Level:  Companion

 

Check out that mug! This guy is goooood looking! And there is more to him then just looks...this guy has personality too! Harvey is sweet and calm, pretty laid back and easy going. He really enjoys the company of the other dogs...and doesn't mind the cats hanging around as well. Got kids? Thats great, Harvey doesn't jump on them and is really good with small children all around. Harvey is a total water dog who has great retrieving abilities and who just flat out loves to swim. Overall, you would really never know Harvey is around, he is quiet and calm, not a barker or wild child. He has not had any accidents inside the house, hasn't chewed anything up...he is just a good boy! Harvey entered HSU's adoption program due to know fault of his own, his family decided they needed a small dog :( Small or Big...it will be hard to find a dog as good as Harvey! Harvey is a Border Collie/Labrador-a Labracollie would be the designer logo! He is really surprisingly low energy and calm for his breed...he definitely enjoys fetching, walking and swimming and will do great with lots of interaction and daily playtime. Adoption Fee is only $100-gasp what a deal! He has been neutered, vaccinated, is heartworm negative, and receives monthly heartworm and flea/tick preventions.

For more information on Harvey and how to adopt, visit Humane Society of Uvalde, EMAIL or call 830-275-1744. Harvey is located in Uvalde Texas, about 90 miles west of San Antonio. Volunteers can help transport for longer distances, but potential adopters should be prepared to make the entire drive if there is not a volunteer available.

Andee

  • Sex: Male

  • Age: 10 Months

  • Coat: Semi-Rough, Red Merle & White

  • Weight: 30 lbs.

  • Activity Level:  Active Companion/Sports Competitor

 

Looking for Mr. Fun? Then say "Hello" to Andee! This gorgeous red merle male is an enthusiastic participant in life. Andee hasn't ever met a stranger and is one happy dog!

Andee was picked up as a stray and never reclaimed. Luckily, he was seen by a rescue person and identified as a Border Collie. Andee has learned a lot in his foster home but as a typical young Border Collie, he will need continued supervision and training. He has great counter surfing skills and uses them whenever he gets the opportunity so this is an area that he needs to be watched carefully. He has just completed an 8 week obedience class and did fabulous. He walks on a loose leash, sits, downs, stays and has the beginning of a great recall.

Andee has the potential to be a great sport prospect or the companion for an active family. He loves to play with other dogs and also has a great "off" switch in the house. He has been around teenagers but not young children. Due to his energy, a home with older or dog wise children would be best. Cats are probably not an option in his home either.

Andee is neutered, current on his vaccinations, on heartworm prevention and is microchipped.

An adoption fee of $150.00 and an approved Adoption Application are required for adoption. All references will be checked and a home visit may be done.

If you are interested in learning more about Andee, please contact 3B Rescue. He is being fostered in the Wichita Falls area.

Mollie

  • Sex: Female

  • Age: 2 1/2 Years

  • Coat: Semi-Rough Coat, Black and white

  • Weight: 42 lbs.

  • Activity Level:  Companion

 

Mollie is just the sweetest most laid back Border Collie with possible Spaniel heritage. This undiscovered soul was found hiding behind the long kennel bars at a local shelter. It turns out this angel with her big brown eyes hates "being behind bars" and closed down so much that she was deemed un-adoptable and her time was up. Now you would hardly know this girl was so scared that it took them two weeks to catch up to her and give her shelter! She has learned that not only is there love from humans but also trust and care. Mollie is house trained and silently goes to the the door when she wants to go out for a bathroom walk. She is still learning that using her Border Collie legs to counter surf is called "off". Don't let her big brown eyes fool you, she is very smart and very easy to train. She is HW negative, on preventative, up to date on her shots, spayed and micro-chipped.

Mollie is a great companion that likes to sleep on her dog bed, gnaw away at bones, and has opened up when playing with her very nurturing foster sister. Mollie really likes children that also are gentle from pre-school to older children as well as men and women. She is still unsure of other dogs when at the dog park and is more comfortable sitting on your lap and meeting dogs that way. She will do well as an indoor dog and will need to be supervised when outside in a yard or out for walks. She will do well in a home with all size dogs, no cats, and would prefer a sibling to have a soft nurturing side. She is truly a Border Collie Companion who is just happy to be happy! Mollie is ready to read over the many applications coming her way for her forever home. Please contact her FOSTER for an Adoption Application or for more information on Mollie. Mollie’s adoption donation is $200.
