• CURRENTLY UNAVAILABLE
• Good with cats

At age 11, BOBBY made the long 24 hour haul from Louisiana to Virginia for the safe refuge he needed after the unexpected death of his person. After being the loyal friend to the one person he deeply adored, we can see he is thinking about all that’s so quickly changed. Confused but bravely moving forward, this sweet fella will find his way as they all do. Being smart has its advantages and disadvantages, but once Bobby figures all this out, we’re sure he will flourish.

He is a big ball boy and enjoying playing again so is already having some fun! Once a Border Collie realizes we get ‘who they are’, then it’s game on! Bobby is very good with other dogs, having lived with 10 of various breeds from tiny to huge (ie; malamute to rat terrier). He is also good with cats, chickens, goats and horses. His former FurMom ran a shelter for many years and took in animals with nowhere to go.

We are thankful that Bobby is heartworm negative and has great hearing and sight and seemingly a strong back-end for running! We’ll support his health needs to bring him into better shape handling ear and skin infections from a flea infestation.

Tearful in a bittersweet moment of goodbye, the daughter of Bobby’s guardian said she felt like she was ‘losing her Mom all over again’ saying goodbye to Bobby. He was a constant loving presence in both of their lives for the past eleven years.

Bobby so wants a person to be with him, just being touched and loved…he was falling asleep sitting upright having his head rubbed on arrival!

We are very happy to help this Border Collie fill his heart and ready himself to love another!

Bobby is currently not available for adoption - we are working through a medical issue.

Many thanks to Elaine Kilgore who evaluated him for us and Aiyana Persinger & Tim Mills who awoke to meet the transport at 4am in western VA, then getting him safely the rest of the way.
