ANDE ("Andee-Panda")
Neutered male tricolor Collie; approx 6 years old, ~70 lbs (w/tons of hair!)
Quiet and regal, but silly and playful when roused
Very mouthy and formerly SPOILED - few manners but ever-so-much charisma !
Will challenge and fight dominant male dogs; gets along well with other dogs, as long as they are respectful of his position as King; occasional outbursts can be avoided by careful management -- he now lives peacefully with 10 other dogs, as long as there is no food or cow hoof in contention. Recently showed submissive behavior to a younger, female dog!
Absolutely no cats or other small, furry roommates
Requirements: $200 (adoption fee/donation), application approval & home visit, at least one obedience course, fenced yard
Recommendations: Would be best as an only pet; not for 1st-time dog owners - very strong -- needs a determined owner with a strong grip on the leash

ELTON
Neutered male sable & white Collie; young adult (approx. 3 years old), 51 lbs
Found running at large in rural county south of Tallahassee; spent 2 weeks at public shelter before being transferred into Rescue
Recovering from typical symptoms of neglect: ear infection, upper respiratory infection, hookworms, and heartworms. Will complete HW treatment by late November.
Extremely sweet, submissive & love-starved
Extraordinarily well-suited for Therapy work - approaches everyone, good with other pets, has natural tendency to keep all four feet on the floor, and has unfortunately lost over 1/2 of one ear in an unknown mishap.
Excellent with children, and truly loves them. It would be a shame for him not to have his own pack of kids!
Requirements: $200 (adoption fee/donation), application approval & home visit, fenced yard or regular leashed walks; preference to Delta Society or other therapy work organization member.

The Colquitt County Dogs:
Royal, Sapphire, & Topaz
Sapphire: 7 year old female cryptic merle collie. Small, shy, sweet. Has become VERY fluffy since above photo. Needs patient home with lots of time to love her and patience to help her adjust. Crate trained but will have accidents if not walked regularly. Has recovered her appetite, easy to keep. The only thing Sapphire requests is no large teenage boys. She is also afraid of some men (anyone resembling her abuser). Adores puppies, playing outside, and rolling in the grass.
Royal: 5 yr old neutered male blue merle collie. Very shy. Needs experienced dog owner to provide a home without any Scary-Large-Guys or too many sudden, loud noises. A very good boy. Completely recovered from TPLO surgery to left stifle, and from 2 month period where he escaped from us and lived on his own. Very loving on his own terms; extremely sweet. Good appetite, good weight & coat.
Topaz: 5 yr old neutered male blue merle collie. Extremely shy indoors, starting to come out of his shell when outside. Needs experienced rehabilitator to provide a home. May need to stay with his brother, Royal. Fair appetite - sometimes has upset stomach (probably nerves). Crate trained - prefers privacy of airline kennel. Recent breakthrough - played with a rope toy outside for the first time in 2 years!
