Remi Jean

Remi Jean is a 4-year-old spayed Border Collie bursting with the intelligence, heart, and work ethic this breed is known for. She's the kind of dog who wakes up each day eager for a purpose, ready to learn something new, and excited to be part of a team. Remi is friendly with other dogs, children, and even cats. While she enjoys keeping an eye on her feline housemates and might playfully herd them, she's always been gentle and has never harmed them.

This bright girl is searching for a home that truly understands what makes Border Collies so special. She's not seeking a sedentary lifestyle; she's looking for a partner in adventure! Whether it's hiking, training, agility, scent work, farm chores, or mastering new tricks, Remi thrives when her mind and body are actively engaged.

Remi has one adorable quirk: she's a bit nervous during thunderstorms. She would love a "thunder buddy" to offer reassurance that everything will be okay. A cozy spot nearby and a little extra comfort go a long way for her during these times.

Due to her intelligence and drive, Remi requires a secure environment and an experienced owner. Without enough mental and physical stimulation, she can become an escape artist. This isn't her trying to flee her family; it's her seeking a job to do! Border Collies are natural thinkers, problem-solvers, and workers, and Remi is no exception. Her past experience involved her repeatedly escaping her previous home and often being found near a busy highway. Instead of addressing her needs, her owner surrendered her to those who found 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 has a happy turn. Today, Remi Jean is safe, cherished, and ready for her next chapter. She's looking for someone who recognizes her as the brilliant, loyal, and affectionate dog she is, deserving of a life filled with adventure, partnership, and purpose. If you're seeking a shadow, a teammate, and a devoted companion, Remi Jean might just be the perfect fit for you.
