Saturday's Collie

COL is proud to introduce a new weekly feature available to Collie Rescue Organizations across the country, free of charge, called Saturday's Collie. Every week we will feature a collie from a 501c3 rescue with a photo or two and a bio describing the collie's story and personality. Contact us to reserve a space for your organization, and we will let you know when your rescue collie will appear. We recognize that there are hundreds of deserving collies rescued yearly by dedicated groups who restore collies to health, revive their collie character, and match them with new homes. We'd love to include as many rescues as possible and will continue to feature new collies every Saturday of the month, as long as groups keep sending them.

Meet "Peanut" from Collie Rescue
of the Carolinas

Hi collie lovers! My name is Peanut. I've been a little confused lately and with good reason. For all of my 8 years I had the same owner, who took really good care of me. I was sad because she passed away. When her family moved in, they took me to the shelter, a place not at all like our house! I hope my mistress sees me from the rainbow bridge and knows I am safely with collie rescue now. I'm still a bit bewildered with so many changes over the last weeks, and I'm not sure what will happen next. The other collies here tell me my life is going to get better and that I will find someone to love me. I'm sure they're right. I am a very gentle boy, and I have good manners (I'm housetrained). I like other dogs and children, and I know that I can be my happy self again one day soon!

Many avenues are available to assist collie rescue organizations near you or nationally through the Collie Rescue Foundation. Of course, monetary donations are always needed and appreciated to help pay for spay/neuter, worming, heartworm treatment and preventative, vaccinations, surgeries, and food. There are, however, many ways to assist rescue such as donating supplies, offering to foster, helping to transport, as well as offering services and expertise.

Travler Collies began in 1968 with the purchase of a rough sable Collie bitch named Bonnie from Kay and Bob Wilkinson of River'Odes Collies. She was bred to Ch. GinGeor Jack of Tamarack owned by Joan Able to produce our first homebred champion, Ch. Travler's Flim Flam Man.
