Lacey is a 5-year-old spayed female Sheltie in an unusual bi-black pattern.  The bi-black makes her look a little more like a Border Collie than a Sheltie.  But her AKC papers prove that she is 100% Sheltie and 100% adorable too.  Her health is excellent and she is up to date on all vaccines and microchipped with a Home Again microchip.

Like another little Sheltie in our program, Lacey needs more attention paid to her activity level and to have less kibble in her bowl.  At 35#, she needs to lose another 10# to be kinder to her joints and to remain youthful longer.  Lots of Shelties, especially the females, get chunky and need our help to keep the extra weight off.  More walks, less treats.

Lacey is a very sweet little girl.  She will happily trot around the house in the echo of her mom's footsteps.  She watches your face with loving eyes (and not only begging for a treat!) and tries to read your thoughts.  She loves men and women and other dogs.  Kitties are an unknown as well as children, although well-behaved kids are usually accepted by most dogs.

A completed application is our first step toward any adoption.  You will find it on our website at www.colliesheltierescue.org.  

Please begin the process for adoption by reading our Adoption Policies and, if we sound like the right group for you, fill out our online Adoption Application. From there, our receipt of your completed application will be confirmed by email. You then will receive a follow-up phone call if we feel you are a good potential applicant for the dog. Lots of good conversation with the foster family, a reference from your veterinarian, and a home visit round out the screening process. We take dog adoption very seriously.  Please put a lot of thought into why you want to adopt a dog, and help us make a good match for your family. We appreciate your taking the time to visit with us. We will look forward to hearing from you as well.
