Pov

Meet Pov, a brilliant three-year-old Border Collie from Rancho Cordova, CA, whose intelligence shines through his playful spirit and energetic lifestyle! Draped in a sleek black coat with charming white accents, Pov is a medium-sized bundle of joy, weighing in at thirty pounds, ready to be your loyal walking buddy and forever friend.

Border Collies like Pov are known for their sharp minds and boundless energy, and Pov is no exception! He thrives on long walks, where his curious nature gets the chance to explore, and his favorite activity is playing alongside his fellow canine companions. He’s got a friendly streak a mile wide, getting along famously with other dogs and even young children. If you have little ones, rest assured, Pov’s natural protector instincts will kick in as he watches over them, making sure they don’t stray too far from the fun. He’s never met a leaf blower he liked, though—those noisy machines tend to make him a little anxious!

When it comes to commands, Pov is already ahead of the game. He knows “sit,” “stay,” “come,” and “away,” making him well on his way to being the perfect, obedient pal. Although he hasn’t had formal obedience training yet, his love for learning means he’d do wonderfully with some additional positive reinforcement to refine his skills. He’s crate-trained and house-trained, which means he’s already got some good habits under his belt.

Pov doesn’t care much for toys, but don’t let that fool you! His playful side comes to life with physical activities and he’s always up for a game or a run. After a fun-filled day, you’ll find him peacefully watching birds through the window or taking a well-deserved nap.

Pov is looking for an active, loving family or a dedicated dog parent who can give him the time and attention he needs to thrive. Do you have the energy and heart to welcome this intelligent, loyal, and playful boy into your life?

Reach out today to meet Pov and start your new adventure together!
