Basket o’ Fun Puppies • 9 weeks old • Available for adoption!!!
Playful and fun, the BASKET O’ FUN PUPPIES were transferred to rescue having been found along the OR/CA border. Mom is a Border collie, Dad didn’t leave a calling card.
The litter is paper trained and only potties on the newspaper area provided overnight, not on the bedding. They are quiet overnight and in the morning when it's time to "go outside" they are beyond thrilled bouncing in their pen as foster mom and dad come to let them out.,The siblings are are all enthusiastic and smart as smart can be. They are all curious, love to explore and as they broaden their horizons at their foster home they are found bopping around the grounds checking out the digging possibilities, rolling in whatever it is that smells so good and climbing all over the fountain as "this is cool!" They are all affectionate and love to cuddle. Petting and belly rubs are high on their list as well as kisses and hugs. Watch out for slippers and the hem of your robe!
Hi there from SAM! This tri-colored medium coated male bc pup is a handsome bundle of fun and energy! He is a cuddler who loves to be petted and tummy tickles are a favorite for our SAM too! At 9 weeks of age, SAM, sporting a bright red collar and a big dog attitude is ready to play every day! SAM loves to play tug and steals the ball from the big dogs here at his foster home and runs away with it! SAM is curious about the resident cat, loves to watch the ducks and follows foster mom around wherever she goes. Our SAM sleeps quietly overnight in the puppy pen. He and his sibs play nonstop (with a break for a nap now and then...)
The puppies are current on vaccinations, as well as heartworm and flea/tick prevention and microchipped. As a condition of puppy adoption, they will need to be altered by their new owner when they reach approximately 6 months (specific time to be determined by your vet). In addition to the adoption fee, puppy adoption requires a $75 spay/neuter deposit. Upon our receiving the spay/neuter certificate from you, the deposit is refunded. Please note, only one puppy can be adopted per household.

Say hello to HANNAH! This darling black/white smooth coat Border collie female pup is 9 weeks old and as smart and independent as puppies come. The litter is healthy and social, loving to play with toys, twigs, the "big dogs" at their foster home and very curious about the cat and ducks that are also present on the property. HANNAH plays chase, wrestle and hide n seek and tug, then like all pups naps in a pile with brothers and sis for an hour or so.
Here comes GEORGE! Gorgeous GEORGIE is a black and white medium coated BC pup. At 9 weeks old our GEORGE is a laid back easy going boy who loves to cuddle, be held and belly rubbed. GEORGE is such an affectionate boy and follows mom all over as she gets things going in the morning. GEORGIE is all eyes as the ducks are let out and he watches PuckleCat when she starts her morning hunt. GEORGE loves to play tug and wrestles with his siblings . . . and then takes a nap! As is common in pups of this age GEORGE plays hard and naps...and plays again! GEORGE is a mellow fellow and social as can be. He is alert to his surroundings and always up to try something new. He loves balls and stuffed toys and can pull the stuffing out of a stuffed animal faster than his siblings. GEORGE is ready to be your new buddy, just come and get me!
