A COMPLETED APPLICATION IS OUR FIRST STEP TOWARD ANY PLACEMENT.  YOU WILL FIND TH ONLINE APP AT www.colliesheltierescue.org.  THERE ARE 10 PUPPIES IN THIS LITTER OF A NEWFOUNDLAND/BORDER COLLIE MIX MAMA.   YES, WE NOTICED THEY AR ENOT COLLIES OR SHELTIESBUT THEY NEEDED TO GO SOMEWHERE TO SURVIVE.....

Mathis (as in Johnny Mathis) is a 9 week old Newfie mix puppy that is big and rangy and robust.  He loves everyone, especially one of our volunteers who you will see cuddling him in these photos.  He eats well and sleeps like a champ.  He loves to play with his littermates and shares toys.  Mathis does his best to wait to potty outside which is quite remarkable for a puppy this young.  As to what combination of breeds this little guy may actually be, it is difficult to say.  But I bet you will adore him!

All of Mathis's vet care is on us.  As he becomes old enough for additional vaccines and to be neutered, we will be in touch and pay for it all to be done at the veterinary clinic of your choice.  BUT, it will be done.  PERIOD.

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.
