Utah Collie Rescue, Inc.

And after you enjoy wearing the new gold chain you got for Christmas, and if you do get a dog next year, after the excitement and energy of Christmas has calmed down a little, we do, of course, ask that you will rescue instead of buying a puppy.
Rescue dogs come in all sorts, shapes, sizes […]

Well it’s two days until Christmas. Do you have all your Christmas shopping done, gotten that stereo cabinet for your loved one who is into music? Finished up all the wrapping?
Are you planning on getting, or have you gotten, a dog or cat as a Christmas present? Well, we advise against giving […]

Well, this site may have been down for the better part of today. It seems my host is upgrading to PHP5, from PHP4. And so there were some errors, and the old site displayed for a while, but now we are back and doing well!
And, our house is full of dog beds. I bought […]

The collies were all up and playing this morning. Fortunately they were mostly outside. It’s cold out, was 22 degrees when I looked at the temperature this morning. That is cold. It could be colder though, and has been here in Utah. Fortunately we stay warm in our house, and we keep warm […]

Well we were able to, briefly, help out a Springer Spaniel today. There was a mixup with her foster home and so she came to stay with us for a couple of hours. What a complete doll. So very cute. I do love springers! She was afraid, though, and when she went in her crate.. […]

Do your collies like the warm weather better or the cold weather? Ours love the cold weather. Angel will go out and stand in the cold for an hour.. and we worry about her and usually bring her in. She doesn’t like the rain, but she does like the snow.
Though when the temperatures drop to […]

Well it’s going to be a fun collie Christmas at our house this year. Even Chase, our pretend collie (he’s border collie doesn’t that count?) will have a great time.
We have our tree up, and it is dog safe. Too many Christmas decorations can be dangerous for dogs. We have no glass ornaments on the […]

Okay getting into the mood of Squidoo, I also started a Collie Rescue Lens. I am not very savvy with Squidoo yet, so be patient as it is built up over time and includes more information. I don’t think I can possibly list all the collie rescue websites around the country, though, because there […]

Do you do dog sports with your collies? If so, we’d love to hear a comment from you. What do you do? Where do you go? Agility, obedience, herding, tracking, carting…? Collies are so versatile they can do so many things. Though we do have to keep the ginsu knives away from […]

I don’t know about other collies, but our collies love the cold weather. Not to stay out in it too long, mind, but they love to go out and play in the snow. We recently had some snow.. not much, but enough to freeze the ground and cover the grass. And Tatum just loves going […]
