ShoresDog Posted September 23, 2007 Report Share Posted September 23, 2007 This evening I searched Yahoo news for "border collie" hoping to find a local story on Nationals. I did, but I also found this grim story. I hope these older dogs find a new home. There's a phone number given, so I could call and give them some border collie rescue contacts. Would that be NEBCR? If not, where would be the best place to contact? Paterson is near NYC. Link to story Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shetlander Posted September 24, 2007 Report Share Posted September 24, 2007 Very sad! We had a similar story by me. A woman was found dead in her house with the body of her small dog next to her. She died of natural causes and the little dog must have starved to death before she was found. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powerman Posted September 24, 2007 Report Share Posted September 24, 2007 very sad, just like the breed as well loyal to the last, makes me very sad to think about it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DakotaSpirit Posted September 25, 2007 Report Share Posted September 25, 2007 How sad. That is how we came to own a sheltie mix. My grandmother passed away and her dog had meant everything to her. My parents were not going to see her put in a shelter or put to sleep so now she is living with my folks, three other dogs to keep her company, and a huge fenced in backyard. I hope they are able to find homes for those two dogs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
