 | Rescue Me ID: 15-01-28-00165Redford (male)
We were asked to take this dog by a good samaritan in Ga. He was at risk in his first home of being shot, so someone up in Ga kindly took him out of that situation, but he lived outside totally. With the weather becoming cold and even snowy, we were asked if we could take Redford down here in Florida, where he can bask in the warmth and sun, and have the opportunity for a forever home filled with love. He came to us right before Thanksgiving. We think he is an aussie/heeler mix about 18 mos old,58 pounds He loves people and other dogs. Submissive to people, but a bit needy and loves attention.. He does show interest in toys and has a ... (Read More)very curious nature. The pictures we saw of him in Ga, showed him playing with sticks, so while his basic needs were being provided, he had little mental stimulation and no social skills taught to him. We are working on house breaking, and indoor manners, ie counter surfing, jumping on people. He is food and attention motivated, so there is much progress to be made and in a short time too. Redford is crated trained, neutered recently, has had all his shots. He does not appear to be sound sensitive, he is great with other dogs. He does want to greet and sniff everyone, and is still learning doggie etiquette amongst his peers, but is making great strides there. For a dog that has been deprived of basic mental stim and social skills, he is doing wonderfully. UPDATE 12/20 We have had Redford almost a month now. He has learned the hierarchy of the pack he lives with, his toilet training has been completed. He loves to play with toys, and sometimes just runs around the yard wtih them in his mouth. He continues to be very friendly and good with other dogs, sometimes to the point of being a pest, so he would do very well with another dog that would welcome a player. He is learning home skills, and the jumping, counter surfing is dwindling down. Redford is ready to move on to his new forever home! He may be a candidate for performance, but certainly he would be a great partner for running, hiking and most any outdoor sport. He is fostered in the Trilby area. Please contact us if you are interested in this handsome boy (Less) Ewenity Farm Border Collie Haven, Inc. Manatee County Bradenton, FL 34211 MAP IT!

 | Rescue Me ID: 15-01-28-00161Fera (female)
Fera is a small 8 or 9 mo old girl that was found in rural Ga in someones shed. We do not have a lot of info on her background. She was brought to the shelter where she promptly retreated into silence and depression. Fera was semi feral when brought into the shelter. She was rescue only and no one wanted her. We saw her face and took a chance. We have had her since May, and she has made great progress. She has never been aggressive, she shuts down and goes into a ball when she feels threatened. That behaviour is becoming less and less. Fera now comes to people for petting, does well on a leash, is learning to sit, has a down. Loves to ... (Read More)snuggle with you for selected moments of time. This is a very agile, smart dog, that can leap 5 feet in the air, sail across a couch or two, and is fast as the wind. She is very attentive, looks you strait in the face. She shadows youwhen you walk in the house, but if you turn too sudddenly she will dance back and can be coaxed to approach with food. Fera still needs lots of special attention. She will always need the company of another stable dog for a role model. Now she needs to expand her horizens, and needs lots of exposure to the environment. Walks in the park, classes (she has been to several puppy classes and done well), petsmart, lots of people touches. She loves dogs, they are her safety net, and she is still learning to trust people. Fera is a project dog, and we will release only to someone that has experience with rehab dogs. She has been evaluated by a behaviourist, and is perfectly rehabitable. she will be an excellent and beyond performance dog. Loves to tug and play, but it is shadowed by her distrust of people hands. That can be overcome. She is still at risk for flight, which is what she would do if scared, so a trusty secure fence is a must. Throw in another dog or two, a patient, kind loving person that knows how to train and read a dog, and she will be a star! She will NOT get any bigger , max 25 pounds. We will consider a reliable knowledgeable foster who can take her under their wing and continue the work we have started.. Fera will be able to get in to classes with certain trainers for a minimal cost, which we will pay for. we will pay for any medical, heartworm and flea prevention. We are just looking for a great home where she can continue her adventures in life. If you are interested in fostering or adopting please contact us, we will be happy to expound on her!!

 | Rescue Me ID: 15-01-28-00160Bubbles (female)
Bubbles is soooo bubbly!! This English Bulldog mix has not a mean bone in her body. She is all wiggles and giggles and just ....bubbly!!! Loves to be loved on, belly rubs are supreme! She is sooo easy going, knows basic commands. Needs some leash walking skills perfected but she is easily trained! None of that bully drooling or snorfling either. Loves to play ball, can be very fast and agile, and she loves dock diving!! Yes she has to wear a life jacket, but she doesnt care, you break out that toy and she will jump and swim to retrieve!! We are currently in classes and she steals the show every time!! Quiet in the house, loves a couch or ... (Read More)bed, wants to be near you is heand loves to snuggle. Great dog for an active family, she will put a smile on your face at any time!! Just look at that gleam in her eye!! She is waiting for you!! Bubbles has had her heartworm treatment and is back on the dock diving!! We have her in agility foundation class and she is at the top of the class!! She will win in whatever she does. Such a happy little girl. Her weight is at a trim 32 pounds so she is not a big girl at all!! She is fully vetted, chipped and utd on vacs. We would prefer her to go to a home with other active dogs, and a performance home is preferable, meaning someone will do agility, flyball, dock diving or something with her. She is such a social butterfly! (Less) Ewenity Farm Border Collie Haven, Inc. Manatee County Bradenton, FL 34211 MAP IT!

 | Rescue Me ID: 15-01-28-00151Brandon (male)
Brandon is a sweet but shy boy we pulled at the last minute from a high kill shelter in Tampa. He was adopted and returned in way worse shape than when he left. He is very skittish with new folks, and will growl at people, but the more he is exposed to kind people you see how he loves them. He needs to know folks will not hurt him. He was fearful of all the dogs here at first but not they play and romp at leisure. He is learning manners, and is quite like the bull in a china shop. He has learned not to jump, and knows sit and down. Loves to leash walk, loves his crate. He does not like to be left totally alone, and will need the company of ... (Read More)another dog or two. He loves to play ball tug and frisbee, and does have a retrieve. This boy needs to be out in public, lots of hands on experience but needs an alpha handler who is kind patient and one who understands dogs. He currently is being treated for demodex and is on a special diet of no grain and fish. Brandon needs a chance to heal and learn that people are not bad. He is a sweet gentle soul who is ready and willing to give love and companionship. We are actively looking for a foster for him in a quieter setting. Anyone out there that is interested in this sweet boy, please constact us. He is located in Bradenton, Fl. (Less) Ewenity Farm Border Collie Haven, Inc. Manatee County Bradenton, FL 34211 MAP IT!

 | Rescue Me ID: 15-01-28-00149Baxter (male)
Baxter is just about the sweetest dog on the planet!! He has this goofy silly look on his face that you just cant resist! He is about 8 mos old,maybe a tad older and is about 55 pounds. He just loves every person and animal he meets!. His tail wags so hard he has trouble walking straight! This is an active boy, who loves to play with toys, ball, loves to tug. He is interested in water, so he could be a future dock diving dog. He is easy to train, and just soaks all that learning up! Loves his crate, you can find him in there any time of the day when he is not playing. He is very easy going in the house, and takes a lot of naps. Baxter will ... (Read More)need another dog or two to play with, he would not do well by himself unless you are extremely active. He is still learning manners, and leash breaking in happening now. Totally housebroken, loves to ride in the car. He is a very submissive boy and a loud voice will send him to the floor, so he needs nice easy verbals and corrections! Baxter was found on the side of the road a couple months ago by some good samaritans, who tried to find his owner. His owner was located, and said Baxter was gotten as a hog dog, and when he saw how easy going he was, well he dumped him. Period. So that easyness and sweetness is now his key to a loving forever home! He is the perfect companion, we do recommend no small toddlers as he is a big boy who is just learning his personal space. Baxter is going to obedience classes soon, and we know he will be the star of the class!. He is fostered in Bradenton, so if you are looking for a great buddy please contact us! He is the best!

 | Rescue Me ID: 14-09-25-00215Serena (female)
Serena (Reni) is a 9-year old, 46lb. senior border collie mix. She is a super sweet, smart girl with a great disposition. Serena hit a rough patch before being rescued on a busy 4-lane hwy., and had numerous health issue. The good news is most of that is behind her now. She does have some old bone injuries which have healed, but incorrectly. The vet states at this point in time, there is medically nothing that can be done to heal them. Serena mobility is good, and get around the house and yard just fine. She like walks and playing with the other dogs in her foster pack. She takes Tramadol for pain at night; the prescription is ... (Read More)available at any local pharmacy for about $4 a month. Does well in the house, is house trained, respects boundaries, does not get into anything she should not be in. Serena gets along well with other dogs but has a tendency to do a herding nip, if there is a lot of running activity when playing. This is not an aggressive bite, but a nip to try to herd the other dog. She gets along fine with older children, and mostly ignores them. Serena's manners continue in the backyard as well. No real issues with digging or jumping. The exception to this rule is when it thunders out, even in the distance. She cannot be left alone outside when there is thunder. She gets so scared, that she will claw and dig at the fence to escape the perceived danger. When inside the house she is fine, and just finds a place to hide until the storm passes. Serena would be a perfect fit for someone who likes a low energy dog. She is content to just be at home with her human, or in other relaxing environments.

 | Rescue Me ID: 14-09-24-00133Pepper (female)
[Read About Natural Incontinence Care] She is a bit headstrong and does not have very good leash manners, but she corrects with a verbal very easily. She knows sit, lie down, has a great recall. Very interested in livestock, but not over the top crazy. I believe she would work sheep or cattle. Pepper does like to go into the pond and get wet, have not seen her swim. She will make someone a great companion dog, even at 9 she is more active than some of my youngsters! Ewenity Farm Border Collie Haven, Inc. Manatee County Bradenton, FL 34211 MAP IT!

Foxy is a mini heeler about a year old. She is a gorgeous little thing, very fast and agile! She needs some manners, and actually jumped up on the counter her first night at foster moms! Manners classes are forthcoming, and she is doing well!! A bit cautious around big dogs, plays fine with dogs her size. All of about 20 pounds!! She does well on a leash and likes to ride in the car. Playing with toys a bit, but she is still getting settled in. Heelermania will probably ensue after she feels comfortable!
