Central Coast Herding Dog Rescue

Central Coast Border Collie Rescue (CCBCRescue) is dedicated to helping find homes for Border Collies, Australian Shepherds, Australian Cattle Dogs/Queensland Heelers and other herding breeds and mixes. This site lists dogs in shelters as well as dogs in homes and foster care, and is intended to help adopters seeking good dogs, and dogs seeking loving homes. Why we do it: Herding dogs are not for every one. Too many adopters get these dogs as status symbols only to find out, their life style doesn't meet these high energy dogs needs. As a result, these wonderful misunderstood dogs wind up in shelters. We understand what drives these dogs, we can place them appropriately. Our mission is to educate people and save dogs. We do it because we love these dogs, with a little effort, can give them a good new life. Euthanasia is not the solution to out animal overpopulation issue. Education is.

Meet Jake

Jake is here! 18 months old, and he's on the small side, about 35 lbs. He's not a fan of jumping in the car, so I lifted him, light! Jake was in the SEACCA Shelter in L.A. when we got him on his 11th half hour. Close! He is fantastic with other dogs. That was the first thing I noticed while he was in the shelter with his kennel mate. He was great with his fosters little mini Eskimo dog who wasn't crazy about Jake, but Jake just wagged his tail and took the growling in stride! Good sign! Jake was proven to be great in the very nice house he was fostered in temporarily. Totally knows about housebreaking! I haven't seen him lift his leg yet... he stands to pee. Jake met a 7 yr old child today on our pack hike, she was part of our pack, plus her mom, my friend, and my contractor who was here today. He's having all kinds of first today! He even went on a plane this morning to get here! He did great! Jake is a beautiful purebred Australian Cattle dog with a nice full tail. He is gorgeous, soft full coat. He's very tolerant of being in the yard tonight! They can’t all be inside! So Jake is in a warm dog-loo with brand new, soft, rice straw. And I'm sure he is dreaming about the lovely day he had today, and not the shelter he was in for the last few weeks. Paws twitching!   More photos and updates: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.1148257936135859&type=3 Interested in Jake?
