Mo-Kan Border Collie Rescue

(Active Rescuer, Foster Home, Home Visits, Transport, Support Staff, Fundraising, Other Services. I currently am looking for more foster homes (we haven't had time for fund raising just yet!) We are a new organization taking the place of Heartland BC Rescue that went dormant early last year. We're a small group of people (but growing fast) centered in KC and our goal is to place the Border Collies that we rescue into appropriate, loving homes. )

(Active Rescuer, Foster Home, Fundraising. There doesn't seem to be anyone in MI connected with rescue and foster homes for BCs. Adopted a BC two years ago and love him. Two adults in home, no children. Our dog has very, very, large yard, lots of love, and daily outings in parks. Recognize their need for lots of attention and exercise. We can give a BC lots of love, attention and exercise. Will foster dogs in MI until we can find them appropriate homes. There is still a lot of farm land in MI and people are buying BCs in MI as house pets who live in the city. I know there has to be BCs adopted as city dogs and then the owners find they "can't handle them". If you or know someone who has bought a BC and found them to be too much in the city, please contact me. We will keep them and find them a good home in the country.)

(Active Rescuer, Foster Home, Home Visits, Transport. I am the local person everyone calls when BCs are in trouble. The shelter calls me when they're turned in, and I collect them and either foster them myself or arrange foster care till they are adopted. I call all the "free BC" ads which appear in the paper, and either collect the dog myself or help them determine the most appropriate placement. I collect information on local people looking for BCs, then match them to dogs that come in (or direct them to a more appropriate breed, if necessary). I take calls from people having difficulties with their BCs, and help them work through the problems, going for a personal view of the situation if necessary. I have a few people who help out with fostering or checking out potential homes, and I make sure they have everything they need to do this work.)
