Remi Jean is a 4-year-old spayed Border Collie with all the intelligence, heart, and work ethic the breed is famous for. She's the kind of dog who wakes up every day ready to have a purpose, learn something new, and be part of a team. Remi is dog-friendly, kid-friendly, and even does well with cats. Like many herding breeds, she enjoys keeping an eye on her feline friends and may occasionally try to manage them, but she has always been gentle and has never harmed them. This sweet girl is searching for a home that understands what makes Border Collies special. She isn't looking for a couch-potato lifestyle; she's looking for a partner. Whether that's hiking, training, agility, scent work, farm chores, trick training, or simply having a daily job to do, Remi thrives when her mind and body are engaged. Her story is a heartbreaking one. Remi repeatedly escaped her previous home and was often found near a busy highway. Instead of addressing her needs, her owner eventually told the kind people returning her that they could simply keep her and rehome her. It wasn't that Remi was a bad dog; she was a Border Collie without an outlet, searching for the purpose she was bred for. Thankfully, her story didn't end there. Today, Remi Jean is safe, loved, and ready for the next chapter. She's looking for someone who sees her for who she truly is: a brilliant, loyal, affectionate dog who deserves more than just a backyard. She deserves a life filled with adventure, partnership, and purpose. If you're looking for a dog that will be your shadow, your teammate, and your biggest fan, Remi Jean may be the missing piece you've been searching for.
Ideal Home
Remi thrives when her mind and body are engaged, so an active home that can provide her with a "job" or plenty of stimulation through activities like hiking, training, agility, scent work, farm chores, or trick training is ideal. She needs a secure home and an experienced owner who understands her breed's intelligence and drive.
Ongoing Health
Remi is fully vaccinated, on prevention, and spayed.
Training & Support
During thunderstorms, Remi would love a thunder buddy to reassure her that everything is going to be okay. A cozy spot near her people and a little extra comfort go a long way. When she lacks fulfillment, Remi can become quite the escape artist, not trying to run away but to find a job. An experienced owner who can provide consistent mental and physical engagement will help her succeed.
