Border Collie / Lab

Name: Yoseph Age: DOB 09-15-2025 Weight: Expected medium to large size Special Traits: Sensitive, gentle, reserved, dog-friendly Ideal Home: Patient, structured home willing to allow full decompression and give him the time he needs to build trust and thrive This sweet boy is one of those puppies who will quietly steal your heart�'�| you just have to be willing to slow down long enough to see him. He came to us as part of an accidental litter from a young couple who had not spayed their dog. When we brought the puppies in, they were in very rough condition and needed several weeks of care before they were healthy enough to even begin their journey forward. From the very beginning, he was more reserved than his siblings. While the others gradually opened up, he has remained a more sensitive, cautious soul. And that's not a flaw�'�| that's who he is. He is happy. He wags his tail, he watches you, he's aware and engaged�'�| but he is not a puppy who will run up and climb into your lap right away. He is still learning that people are safe, and that trust takes time. Personality & Temperament He is a gentle, quiet, observant puppy who prefers to take things in at his own pace. He is not shut down, he is simply cautious. He gets along beautifully with other dogs, both male and female, and even does well with younger puppies. He coexists easily and naturally within a group. He just hasn't fully built that human trust yet. Training & Transition This is where it's important to understand�'�| He is not a 'ready-made' puppy. He is a dog who will require patience, understanding, and a proper decompression period. He will need an adopter who is willing to bring him into their home and simply allow him to exist without pressure, no forcing interaction, no overwhelming him, no expectations for immediate affection. Just time. Dogs like him do not fail in homes�'�| They BLOSSOM in the right environment. We have seen it time and time again over nearly 30 years. Given space, consistency, and a calm environment, dogs like him become deeply loyal, loving companions. It may take weeks�'�| it may take a few months�'�| But when they choose you, it's something truly special.
