Today we got to meet some of the folks responsible for rescuing Jackie, at a fun event in Keller, Texas at Shannon Brewing Company at the Border Collie Save Brouhaha adoption event. Jackie introduced us to her first foster mom and dad, who are the co-founders of Border Collie Save and Rescue. We were able to purchase some cool merch in support of the rescue, participate in a fund-raising raffle, and hear live local musicians as well as see a disc dog demonstration.
We got to meet Kai, a little BC girl who was high on my list of potential candidates to adopt while we were still in the searching phase before we found Jackie. Kai is as awesome as I imagined she would be, and while she may not make an international agility dog, she has the personality (and small size!) to make an awesome pet, and I’m sure she would excel at obedience, agility, and trick training, or anything else her person puts their mind to teaching. At under 30 pounds she is the perfect size, and is the quintessential black-and-white easy-care coat that I love.
It was fun meeting other adopters and volunteers, and a bunch of great dogs. I am so grateful to the cadre of rescue volunteers out there, and especially to those at Border Collie Save and Rescue!
