He is a good natured dog who is interested in everything around him and likes to be involved with his person and whatever you are doing. He is smart and focused though not a heavy herder or in need of a full-time job. He loves activities though and needs to be in an active, loving  home.

He is  super agile and fast and could easily excel in agility or any sport. Misha is also very very smart, attentive, alert and focused so would do well with someone interested in training. Misha is a very smart Border Collie and already knows many obedience commands and is totally responsive. He will only be adopted into a BC savvy home since he needs a leader to occupy his mind, body and emotions. He is great with other dogs, easily plays in a herding style and can outrun many of the rescue dogs. He loves to swim and will retrieve from the water endlessly or just enjoy a swim by himself. He is about 35 pounds and best with dog savvy cats. Misha was surrendered to the Farm due to an inability to meet his energy needs. He came from upstate NY. He was adopted into a home but returned due to his issues with children. He is very nervous around them so needs an adult only home.

He also loves his ball and will retrieve endlessly and is happiest with his job of toys and ball play. Sully is smart and focused and very connected to people, quickly bonding.

He is about 40 pounds and is good with cats. He was a stray in western NY, taken to a shelter that works with GHF.  We discovered that Sully had issues with handling his hindquarters so pursued diagnostics with orthopedic surgeon, Dr. Paul Bookbinder, in Syracuse, with extensive xrays of his hips and spine. We are so glad we checked this out because we uncovered the source of his reactivity to handling - Sully has what we call in human terms - sciatica - nerve pain in the lower back. This level of nerve pain was causing his behavior problems obviously because he was  hurting. Now, being treated with a low level of prednisone, he is a different dog.  We can move his tail without pain and his back legs.  He can run, play, chase balls and hike now, pain free

 PEPPER: An 7 year old Border Collie, Pepper is a gentle guy who loves toys of any kind. He will chase after balls and loves the wiggly giggly ball, happy to roll it around endlessly.

She's lived in one home since a pup and is good with cats.  Jasmine was relinquished to the Farm due to financial reasons, from NY. 

BUDDY: We are incredibly excited to announce Buddy's adoption! A few months ago, unbeknownst to us, Buddy's person arrived. She knew immediately...he knew quickly and then finally, we knew it! Our new employee, Emma, joined the caretaker team and within short order, announced she was in love with Buddy. Of course, we know that lots of people have loved Buddy over the past two years - all of us, of course and the volunteers and campers who walk him - so we didn't think much more than it's another Buddy fan! Well, in a few weeks, she requested a serious conversation about adopting Buddy and as they say, the rest is history.

Buddy is now sleeping on the bed, sprawled out as if he's lived with her his whole life. He's getting numerous ball play sessions each day and plenty of walks in the great outdoors, which he loves. The greatest news is that not only did Buddy finally find his person and his person found him, he also has a canine friend! He lays side by side with his new friend for a snooze and they check on each other constantly. His new canine friend is carefully managed so as not to be too much for Buddy so he's now got it all - a friend; a person who really understands him; tons of ball play and most importantly, at age 10, all the love he so richly deserves.

We always wondered if Buddy would overcome the loss of his person two years ago and now today, we can say, he has most certainly shown he is ready for a new journey. And, in pure Buddy style, he's already learned lots of new hand signals and watches his person intently, not wanting to miss any of the exciting new life he now has with her. When we introduced Buddy to his new canine friend and as we were ready to take Buddy back to the barn, he sat next to Emma with a show of determination, uninterested in moving. We knew then that Buddy had made his own choice. He patiently waited for her day off to then head home forever!!!!

BUDDY is a 10 yr old Border Collie that is loving, gentle and loves to play ball. Buddy loves to be with his person and is the perfect companion, well mannered and wonderful with everyone. Buddy is deaf, but loves to be part of the action, happy to race after balls and retrieve. He loves to meet new people and quickly nudges your hand for a pet on the head. He also loves to ride in the car and is happiest as the constant companion to his person. Buddy is about 50 lbs and good with cats.

RETT: A 2 1/2 year old Border Collie, Rett is a really good-natured, happy guy who joins into the action wherever he is or makes his own fun with his favorite toy - his basketball which he'll push around and toss in the air if you aren't throwing it. He is a ball nut for sure. Rett is very easy going and eager to be your companion. He has been hiking in the woods off leash and does great as well as loves swimming. He is great with other dogs though happy to be with people just as much. He is smart and playful but not overly intense and responds instantly to attention or requests, very eager to please. Rett is good with cats. He is about 50 pounds. Rett originally came from a breeder in Colorado but his guardian died while living in PA.  A friend took Rett in for a year but felt he needed more time and attention than she could give since she ran a boarding kennel.

Quite an athlete, he races around like the wind but is very quiet once inside. He was allowed to herd cows and horses near to his Farm so will need some more structure to adapt to a new life. Cosbie is very eager to bond so will do well with a BC savvy person who is patient. He will be placed with another BC, in an experienced home that can help him  build his confidence with people. He is good with cats and weighs about 40 pounds. He came from PA when his guardian could no longer keep him and his brother. 

MAGGIE & REX happily played with their new guardians, enjoying the fun of kids again. Their new FurDad spent time with them in our adoption  office and outside and knew this was the pair he wanted to take home.  They charmed everyone with their unique personalities - Maggie the toy girl and Rex the cuddler - exactly what they wanted to add to their family. We've already had pictures of them in their new home where they are lounging happily and playing with toys, thrilled to be in a home again! We are so happy for this pair who patiently waited for their new people to come for them. They now live on 10 acres which fits them perfectly since they previously lived on 5 and used all of it for running and playing! They live in upstate NY.

MAGGIE is a three-year-old purebred BC, and REX is her devoted 4 year old BC mix companion.  These two dogs love each other deeply and have a great relationship, always checking in on each other and enjoying games they make up together.  They are not tremendously interested in other dogs, both being more interested in human attention, both incredibly sweet and affectionate. They love people and would enjoy being side by side with their person day in and day out.  They also love the outdoors, having had 5 acres to roam and explore all day in their previous home.  Maggie is also a toy nut and will even throw a toy back to your hands plus she loves frisbee.  Rex is a very sweet boy who adores Maggie and loves to meet new people, super friendly.  Both Maggie and Rex are trained on Invisible Fence and are used to living with cats though will chase so need dog savvy cats.  Maggie and Rex are being relinquished due to their current family moving out of the country.  These two beloved family members really want to join a family again soon and share their love. They've lived in one home all their lives and will easily fit into a new home quickly.  They are both about 40 pounds, typical in size for a border collie though Rex could be shepherd/bc.

She can be a little shy at first but quickly lands in your lap for tons of affection. Lela is smart and focused and wants to be the center of attention though she is very gentle with people, a love-bug. Lela is also very fast when she's running and loves a good outdoor race.

She came originally from Texas to a NY guardian who could then not meet her needs.

He is super responsive to what is asked of him and will easily hang out inside, enjoying the attention of his guardian. Casey has a strong focus so could easily learn whatever he is asked to do but he will also entertain himself, curious about everything. He and his brother, Kai, came into rescue from their Long Island home where they were escaping the fence to chase chickens. He is carrying some extra weight which he'll knock off easily here. Casey is not good with cats. Both he and Kai have wonderful recall and enjoyed off leash trail walks in their previous home. They could be placed together or separately. Casey is trained on the invisible fence

FLYN: A petite 9 year old Border Collie, Flyn is a smart, observant, classic Border Collie, where he takes in everything going on around him and then decides exactly what he should do. In his case, mostly he loves to follow his person right by their side to accompany them wherever they are going. He'd be great to go each day on chores or activities like at a farm where he could do his 'work' right by your side. He is a dream to live with, a really gentle, sweet guy who demands little but that of being a great companion. He is very easy going. Flyn is good with other dogs though does love being the center of attention himself. He is fine with cats. He is about 35 pounds. Special thanks to adopter Ann Gardner who is fostering Flyn in Ct

LUKA: A 7 week old tri-color Border Collie, Luka is a love. She's a classically curious girl who is looking for something to do.

He is excited to say hello to everyone and happily does just that. Murdoc easily adapts to a new situation, grabbing his toy for some fun play and following his person everywhere they go. He loves toys of any kind, especially the wiggly giggly ball and squeaky toys, totally enchanted by the odd sounds they make. He is quite the charmer to be with a funny character to watch, happily entertaining himself. Murdoc still has those puppy tendencies of being mouthy so will need some direction which is normal for young dogs. He is smart and eager to learn and could easily learn sports. He's also fast since he's such a little guy, only 18 inches at the withers. Murdoc came from Georgia as part of another rescue's rehoming effort but their placement didn't work out properly so they contacted us for help. He's a wonderful good natured little guy, a real puppy at heart, but not good with cats

YATES: A 1 1/2 year old Border Collie mix, Yates is all about ball play! He'd rather catch a ball tossed his way than a treat. In fact, he's happy to entertain himself with a game of two-ball, one in his mouth and one on the floor, alternating between the two...he just loves to play ball. He is super focused with the Border Collie traits but relaxed much like a lab or golden, an easy going guy. He likes other dogs and fits in well though would be thrilled to have a human friend to call his own, playing ball! Yates loves toys of any kind and would love an active guardian. He's quite a character. Yates is 55 pounds and not yet tested on cats. He was a stray in PA. 

KAI: A 2 year old Border Collie with ABCA papers, Kai is all action, a very smart, very focused and very fast young Border Collie, He loves to run and he's fast as the wind, chasing and herding the other dogs. Kai is also very loving and friendly to everyone. He has no worries about life and loves to jump into everything with gusto. He will do best with an active home that can maximize his mind while keeping him busy since he has plenty of energy to burn. He does, however, settle beautifully once he comes inside, quietly laying down and content. Kai and his brother, Casey, came to the Farm since they were escaping their fenced yard to chase chickens, very typical of active BC's who need focused activities rather than creating their own. Kai could easily do any sport and is super fast to learn anything new. He is about 45 pounds and not good with cats. Kai and his brother Casey came to the Farm from Long Island guardians. Kai is trained on the invisible fence

JOCK & TARRA found the perfect home where they can be themselves and be adored for just who they are - happy, sweet, people lovin' Border Collies! Their new guardians fell in love with these two and their sweet nature and knew they could not leave without them. Clearly, Tarra agreed as she cuddled next to her new FurMom, signaling her vote that this new home was what she wanted, too. Jock joined in, in his reserved and gentle way. The two of them looked out the back of the hatchback as they drove away, two heads side by side, with a sweet good-bye! We are incredibly happy for them both and the wonderful people who came for them. Their second time at GHF landed them another great life, which they so richly deserve. They now live in upstate NY

He absolutely loves to play and loves to learn. Jock is very outgoing and has a great temperament. He can be nervous around small children so they do best in an adult home.

WOODY found his forever home right with his foster Mom who loves hiking with him and her other two BC's, one an alum from the Farm. Woody has a winning personality and week after week, it became harder to say goodbye, sending him anywhere else but her home. Woody has a great life there, hiking each day and soon to be doing geese work, which he'll love. We're thrilled for Woody and Debbie, who knew instantly just how special Woody was when she offered to foster him. Woody lives in NY and we'll get to see him, too!

WOODY: An 8 yr old Border Collie with ABCA papers, Woody is all BC - he is smart, tuned in, eager to please and all about the ball!  He would happily enjoy ball play all day as well as hiking.  He is full of energy to play, play, play! He's wonderful off leash for hiking and would accompany his person wherever they go, enjoying racing through the woods, jumping in the water for a swim and a quick ball toss here and there. He is fantastic with other dogs, fitting in beautifully, not interested in much interaction but happy to hang with anyone.  He'd be happiest as the solo dog where he was the constant friend to a person, able to go wherever they go. Woody loves everyone he meets and adjust to new situations perfectly, trusting that life is good and people are great. Like most older BC's that come into rescue, Woody is marvelous, absolutely delightful because he comes from breeding years ago, when care was taken to breed a stable, balanced dog.    The youngsters are great dogs, too but the more mature BC's really exemplify the outstanding features of this breed.  Woody lived in Montana years ago and most recently NY where it turned out he was the cause of allergies in one of the children in the home so Woody had to go.  He was a beloved family member.  Woody is being fostered in NY

ORIE: A 3 1/2 month old Border Collie, Orie is fabulous. He is confident, happy, good natured and fearless. He joins in dog play instantly and races and chases like the big dogs.

He already knows lots of commands and is housetrained, clearly as bright as they come. He has what we call, racing stripes on his back end, quite adorable to see as well as those floppy ears that have not yet decided where they want to be. Orie is such a charmer, quite the cuddler and all action too. He is one wonderful pup and is good with cats. He was abandoned in a NJ shelter due to allergies with children in the home. 

GRAHAM: A 7 month old Border Collie, Graham is a gentle, sensitive boy who likes to play with other Border Collies but has a shy side with people. He will need a quiet adult home with another confident BC to help him blossom. He is super sweet and loving and wins your heart quickly. Graham is good with cats and about 35 pounds. He came to the Farm from Kuwait where he was found as a stray. He is the third dog to come to us from there, assumed to have been with a U.S. military person originally.

INDIE: A 1 1/2 year old Border Collie, Indie is a gentle, sweet, good natured Border Collie who kicks into herding gear outside with his brother, Cosbie. He has quite an eye and is eager to 'work'. Indie is smart and also sensitive so will need a patient guardian who understands how to build his confidence with people. He is very loving and bonds once he's comfortable but can be shy at first and takes some time to warm up to new people. He and his brother lived on a farm where they could run and herd on their own so he's unsure what's expected of him in a relationship. He does, however, love people once he knows them. He will be placed with another confident BC with experience BC guardians. Indie is fine with cats and weighs about 40 pounds. He was relinquished, along with his brother, by a guardian who could no longer keep them both, from PA.

She also loves to play with squeaky toys and will make her funny sounds as she tosses and squeaks the toys, quite adorable, entertaining herself. She is about 40 pounds and OK with dog savvy cats. She came from western PA. She will be placed in an adult only home since toddlers make her nervous. Sadee is best as a solo dog since she has little experience living with other dogs and is uncomfortable.

HAILY found her forever home! Sometimes, just when you think that things are hard, along come just the right people to understand the needs of a special rescue dog like Haily. Her new guardians are both in the medical field so had no worries that they could manage any seizures so felt completely open to adding Haily to their lives. What really made them choose this sweet girl was her wonderful heart. She showed that incredible cuddly nature as well as maniacal ball nature and that was the exact combination they had come to find. The kids just loved her and she loved them! So, Haily, in the midst of a challenging health dilemma, found exactly the family to understand her needs! We were so thrilled to see this unfold as they met numerous dogs and found themselves drawn to Haily!! She now lives in Ct. Besides Haily's wonderful humans, she has an amazing new canine friend, Claudio, a bigger than life Great Dane who she felt was just fine, though a funny sight for the car ride home!

HAILY: A petite 2 year old Border Collie, Haily is action-oriented and eager to play ball. She is super fast and very agile, a classic BC with incredible focus.  She loves the frisbee and ball and would be thrilled in an active home. She is a marvelous companion, sweet as can be, an easy going girl who quickly comes to life with her ball!  Haily clearly came from a home where she learned all kinds of things, including being able to sit back and wave! Haily come from a shelter in NJ as a stray. She is 33 pounds. Haily is a strong herder with cats so will stress out cats who are not used to this plus she needs supervision since her herding can turn into a grab, though it's not aggression, it's just intent herding.  We are listing her as no cats for this reason though many homes have bc's just like her and manage fine.

PORTER: A 4 year old Border Collie, Porter is marvelous, friendly and eager to say hello to everyone. He is an easy, good natured guy who fits in easily in new situations, with people and dogs. Porter is also quite the affectionate guy, loving to be with his person, a major belly rub guy and cuddler. Porter is not intense like many Border Collies, and could easily fit in as a great companion. He does love being with someone though so long hours away from his person aren't his idea of a great life. He would be a fantastic therapy dog.  Porter is everyone's friend. He'd be happiest with another canine friend but most importantly, a person who is his!  Porter is about 40 pounds and fine with cats.  He was a stray in NJ. A special thanks to his angel supporters who helped pay some of the costs of his surgery for a hip fracture.  A top orthopedic surgeon brought him back to full use of his back leg and Porter happily sails around the Farm good as new!  We'd like to place Porter in a home without a lot of steps for upstairs/downstairs living since it will be easier on him.

DEVIN: A 1 year old Border Collie, Devin is really sweet, good natured guy who enjoys being with his person. He loves affection and he also loves to play ball. He's enjoying the games with other Border Collies and really coming to life, having a blast. He had been an only dog but seems happiest now with a friend. Devin is a very smart, observant BC who thinks about everything going on around him before being impulsive so could easily learn whatever is asked of him. He is very gentle and easy going. Devin is about 45 pounds. Devin is unsure of cats so needs some guidance and with dog savvy cats, he'd be fine.  He came to the Farm from a NY guardian who ran a day care and while Devin was good with the kids, she just felt she could not focus on his needs.
