My story

Meet Vanessa, an adorable smooth coat border collie mix who was shaking and shut down in a loud local animal shelter.  Our rep went to visit a couple other dogs to evaluate and saw this adorable 7 month pup hiding and hunkered down.  She wouldnt even walk.  We had to carry her out of shelter and later coax her out of her crate.   Less than 24 hr hours later she is learning how to walk, while wearing a leash, learning to enter and exit her crate by herself and is doing fabulous on potty training!  Vanessa enjoys being with her family and is good with kids. She loves belly scratches and snuggkes.  She is a really good pup, who is curious, sweet and a bit shy at first.  She is eager to learn and is treat motivated.  She comes running when called and sits!  We'll share more pics and updates soon, but this 27 lb cutie is available for adoption.  Get your apps in soon, she is sure to win the hearts of many!     All her vetting is done.  To meet Vanessa, fill out our app and be ready to schedule a drive to Hudson Oaks, TX; just west of Fort Worth, TX   Apply to adopt here:   https://www.pawsofloverescue.com/adoption-application Application available at https://www.pawsofloverescue.com/adoption-application.  Adoption fee of $275 includes neuter/spay, microchip, heartworm testing, deworming, vaccinations, and other necessary procedures.  Applications without a phone number will not be processed.Applications can be found online at www.pawsofloverescue.com, under the adopt tab.  We require an approved application before a meet and greet is set up.  July 13, 2025, 6:14 pm

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Vanessa, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
