Here's "Hero" now ready to find his forever home. He really thinks he likes the name "Buddy" so that's what his foster is calling him. We estimate that Buddy is only about a year old.
Here's what she says about him....
"Buddy is a sweet, kind and clever dog who has overcome so much! Found as a stray with injuries from being hit by a car that didn't heal correctly, he's come through his surgery and rehab with flying colors! He's an independent little fellow, who is happy to spend time in my sunroom watching the neighbors. He does love a good cuddle and belly rub, though. He is well behaved and gets along great with other dogs. He has not been tested him around cats or children. He's a brave soul and is learning that the world has infinite good possibilities. He is house broken and goes in a crate with no issues. We don't know his past and he is a little wary of adult men at first, but if you are patient and persisent, he'll warm up quickly!"
Buddy is neutered, up to date on vaccinations and on heartworm prevention. He is being fostered in Memphis, TN and his adoption fee is $350. Email us at

However he would also be an amazing active companion. He loves exploring new places. We haven't gone for a hike yet, but I think he'd love going on long hikes with his person.
He's super sweet and just wants to be with his person. I laid down in his bedroom (yes he has his own room until he is fully integrated with my crew) to catch my breath when I wasn't feeling well and he brought me a few toys. When I didn't respond more than a few soft words, he snuggled down next to me and just waited for me to feel better.
I would call him a medium energy dog, and with proper exercise he settles well in the house. He's got this amazing coat that is soft and silky, but his new family should be prepared to brush him regularly. I think he would be fine as an only dog or with another dog-savvy dog. "
Odin is being fostered in LIttle Rock, AR . HIs fee is $350 and we will, as we always do, require a fenced yard. If you are interested in Odin, please email us at contact@bordercollierescuewesttn.org
