About Rusty

Those who understand working breeds will find in Rusty a splendid pal who thrives on activity and engagement. Whether it's a game of fetch, a brisk walk, or a joyous sprint in an open field, Rusty is in his element when on the go.

Rusty’s social nature and playful personality make him a joy to be around. He loves the company of other dogs, as long as they meet with calm energy, and he'd be thrilled to share a home with a fellow canine companion. He is also fantastic with people, becoming fast friends with everyone he meets, though initially he might come off as a bit subdued. Once he's comfortable, Rusty's affectionate side comes through with exuberant greetings and enthusiastic interactions. While he's good with kids, older children who are familiar with energetic dogs are best matched for Rusty's lively spirit as he can be quite jumpy to give some affection when really excited.
Training Rusty is a rewarding experience as he is both smart and eager to learn. He has mastered the basics—sit, stay, and drop—and his excellent recall makes outdoor adventures safe and enjoyable. Rusty is also food-motivated, which is a great asset when teaching him new skills. While he is still perfecting his leash manners, he’s keen to improve and just needs that consistent guidance to refine his indoor and outdoor behaviors.
Rusty's ideal home is with an active family that appreciates the intelligence and energy of Border Collies and can provide the structured and stimulating life he craves. A spacious yard or property would suit Rusty's need for room to run and play, and an adventurous human to go hiking or enjoy the outdoors with him would make his canine dreams come true. With his love for fun and excitement, Rusty is ready to bring companionship and joy to a family that can match his zestful pace.
