Journey is with us as her owners lost their home. She is a lovely gal with still lively eyes and  a beautiful smile. She  has been   well cared for , physically and mentally. Journey enjoys a good weight, wears a very shiny ebony coat and is quite a socialite. She has excellent manners and walks beautifully on the leash. I could wrap my leash around my little finger and walk her all around the block… Stairs are not a problem and she demonstrates  good  house training skills. Journey likes treats  and will sit for them. She also  poses for our photo shoot,  making my life quite easy and the pictures of better quality…She likes to be talked to, being  petted and loves to be brushed.. Although quiet in her kennel, Journey is quite energetic and will gallop toward me when I call her. She can jump for chicken, literally… Other dogs…Well, she seems to like them very much, wagging widely her tail in excitement when she meets one.Journey comes with excellent comments . She would be friendly and playful with adults and children alike. She lived in harmony with a cat at some point. She would be house trained although  sometimes has an accident when she gets excited. She is crate trained too. Journey is 9 year old Border Collie with a wonderful disposition, a real sunshine. She is an elderly nevertheless and needs an adopting family attuned to the need of older dogs while enjoying the benefit of owning one… Journey is at the Manhattan Care Center, dreaming to start her life all over  again with you..

PROFILE

Journey is described as friendly, quiet, and reserved. She has lived with adults only but she has interacted with children aged 6. Journey is very playful and excited with children. She will begin wagging her tail and jumping up on them to play.  When Journey notices other dogs, she will begin to wag her tail and pull towards them. Journey lived with a cat for a month and was tolerant and playful with it. She would chase the cat around the home.

BEHAVIOR

Journey spends a lot of time lying down and resting. Journey likes to be in the same room as her owner. Journey isn’t bothered by having food removed from her mouth while she is eating. Journey will attempt to escape from the bathtub when she is being washed. She enjoys being brushed and petted. Journey will bark only if someone knocks at the front door of the home or if someone is standing near the door. Journey will greet visitors with a wagging tail at the door. Journey will allow strangers to approach her while being walked and even allow them to pet her. Journey is allowed to roam free in the home when left alone.

FOR A NEW FAMILY TO KNOW

Journey is house trained but will urinate slightly if she is very excited. Her owner noted that it would occur when a visitor would enter the home and begin talking to her in a high pitched voice and playing with her. She is accustomed to being walked 2x a day. She is allowed off leash and will return to her owner when called. Journey enjoys playing with squeaky toys and will play fetch sometimes. Journey knows the commands “sit, come here, and lay down.” Journey is afraid of thunder and will begin to whimper if she hears it. She eats Dog Chow or Pedigree dry dog food and canned food on special occasions. She sleeps in her large crate at night.
