The long distance adoption process includes talking to the foster they are living with in the south. Roughly 90% of our dogs are successfully long distance adopted and 10% adopted locally.

Get ready to DASH through life with this cutie by your side!

Meet Dash - a 1.5 year old, Border Collie mix, who weighs 50 pounds (as of 3/10/25). Dash was previously owned by an elderly couple who worked hard on his training and manners, but they just couldn’t keep up with his need for exercise and mental stimulation. He's a young guy who would love an active family who can give him everything he deserves!

His foster shares: "Dash is a handsome, 1.5-year-old Border Collie mix with a heart full of energy and a mind that never stops! He’s incredibly smart, full of enthusiasm, and loves to be active. This boy thrives on activity! Whether it’s playing fetch, running, or learning new tricks, Dash is always ready to go. He’s looking for a family that can match his energy and loves the Border Collie spirit. If you enjoy outdoor adventures, agility training, or long runs, Dash is the perfect companion for you. He previously lived with cats and enjoys their company, but fair warning: he likes to play with them. He’s got a big heart and is ready to find a home that can give him the love, attention, and exercise he deserves. If you’re an active family that can provide Dash with the space to run and the challenge he craves, he’s sure to be your loyal, energetic, and fun-loving best friend. Give Dash a chance and let his exuberant spirit bring joy into your life!"

All dogs are up to date on vaccinations and spayed/neutered at the time of adoption. All dogs require professional training to become the best family member they can be.

PLEASE READ: If a dog is listed, then s/he is currently available for adoption. Their information is correct to the best of our abilities and the information we have been given as of the day of posting. From time to time we receive new information/photos of a dog and we do recreate their listing, which means their old listing link will no longer be valid. If you are considering a dog but don't apply right away please make sure to search for the dog by name if the link you have no longer works.

Please note, GDRNE does not guarantee the breed of any dog or puppy unless stated that we have run DNA. All breeds listed are educated estimates. Note that if the dog is listed as an "Out of town pet" there are NOT additional transport fees - it is included in our adoption fee Our dogs are rescued from various situations. It is most likely that both their parents were strays and even if not, mixes of some sort and that their grandparents were mixes as well. The dog may have some genetic material of an American Staffordshire Terrier (pit bull). The dogs are usually mixes of many breeds, making them a breed all their own - a True and adorable American MUTT. If you are interested in this dog, you must submit an application. Great Dog is not a shelter so there is no building you can visit. Our dogs live in private foster homes until adopted.
