Pebbles | Not Available Yet

Previously named Abilene, she is a 45 pound year and a half old female who is very shy and shut down. She is beginning to take treats and food out of hand, but very timid and submissive when doing so. She is not accepting of being petted or handled at all yet.

History | She comes from a terrible border collie hoarding situation in Colorado. National Mill Dog Rescue (NMDR) was contacted by a family member because they had “some” dogs that needed rescued. When they arrived they found 92 border collies all under the age of three. They were fed-ish by one person, mostly left to survive on their own, and had been doing so for years. They developed a pack mentality which, unfortunately, led to arguments ending in a loss of life for at least one dog. They would kill any and all small animals within the area. NMDR was able to safely evacuate 40 with hopes of going back to get the rest. All dogs are shut down and scared, but have begun to show friendliness after decompressing and time to learn to trust humans. She had one 4-week old puppy when NMDR showed up to the scene. This puppy was on the brink of death being eaten alive by fleas and ticks. NMDR was able to grab the puppy before the pack got to it. The puppy is now healthy and has been adopted by a member of NMDR.
