Collie (long coat) : : Male : : Adult : : Large
Meet Kansas, the glorious sable and white rough Collie. He is a 7-year-old neutered male that is active and funny and full of joy. His owner adored him but circumstances were such that she asked us to re-home him. He arrived looking a bit like an unmade bed and he obviously needed a professional groomer. What a handsome fellow he is now!
Kansas has always had loving care and in return, he has all the wonderful traits of his breed. His good with men, women and children (of course). He has lovely manners although he does not know many commands.
He has a sense of humor and loves to share his fun-loving nature. When asked to sing . . . he howls. If you have a conversation with him, he chimes in with “grrr, woof, snort, rrr-rrr-rrr, woo-woo-woo.” When you speak back to him, he tips his big sweet head and goes “ru-rah?” Those of you who have been lucky enough to have a Collie like this know exactly what I am talking about. And the rest of you just don’t know what you are missing.Kansas
At 66#, down from 70#, Kansas is fit and young for his age. He arrived already neutered and up to date on vaccines so the available dollars were spent on a heartworm test, blood chemistries and CBC and a complete dental cleaning and polishing with one minor extraction. He is housebroken and taught himself the doggie door in a heartbeat. Nothing makes him smile like a cuddle on the sofa and the prospect of a movie night.
