About Winchester

Adoption Fee: $200
Border Collie / Lab
Age: Adult
Sex: Male

Meet Winchester - Loyal, Energetic, and Ready for a Child-Free Herd to Call His Own Winchester is a 7-year-old neutered male Border Collie/Lab mix who's been a beloved companion since he was just a year old. He's healthy, active, and happiest when he has a job to do-especially if that job involves chasing his favorite herding ball or patrolling the backyard for squirrels. Like many Border Collie mixes, Winchester has a strong herding instinct and thrives in an environment where he can run, play, and have structure. He's smart, loyal, and affectionate with adults, and he's done well with most dogs-though he prefers to avoid other dominant personalities. He's also perfectly content coexisting with cats. Unfortunately, Winchester is not well-suited to life with children. He has a natural urge to herd them, which can create a stressful environment for everyone. As we prepare to welcome our first child, we're faced with the heartbreaking decision to find him a new home where he can truly thrive. ��%8F� Ideal Home: Adults only, no children A fenced yard and/or space to play Experience with herding breeds preferred An owner who understands canine body language and structured play This is not a decision we've made lightly-Winchester means a great deal to our family. We're committed to finding him a home where his instincts are respected, his needs are met, and where he'll be just as loved as he has been with us. If you think your home could be Winchester's next great chapter, we'd love to hear from you.
