The answer to “Where can I put a Border Collie up for adoption?” includes a few options. You can surrender your dog to a shelter, find a private rescue willing to take your dog, or rehome them yourself. Which is the best solution for you depends on how much time you’re willing and able to put in to ensure your pet finds a good home and has the best chance at a safe and happy future.
The staff at most shelters work hard to find homes for all of the dogs in their care, but it’s important to keep in mind that some have lower save rates than others. Do a bit of research before surrendering your dog. Even at the best shelter, the situation can be very stressful to a dog. If possible, avoiding this option is advisable.
Breed-specific Border Collie rescues are another option. Typically, the dogs are kept in foster homes, which is less stressful than being in a shelter environment. The downside is that it can be difficult to find a private rescue that has space for your dog, but it’s definitely worth looking in to. Even if they can’t take your dog, they may be able to list his availability for adoption on their website.
Rehoming your dog yourself might seem like an intimidating prospect, but there are plenty of resources available to help. Rehome by Adopt-a-Pet provides advice from experts, and allows you to create a pet profile that can be seen by potential adopters. This option allows you to be in control of where your dog ends up. While it takes more time and effort than the other methods, it’s the one that gives you the most peace of mind that your dog will be safe, healthy, and loved.
