This dog is currently out of state but will be transported to New England shortly with no additional travel costs. The long distance adoption process includes talking to the foster they are living with in the south. Roughly 90% of our dogs are successfully long distance adopted and 10% adopted locally.

**Please read Oreo's entire profile, which includes a link to the adoption application at the end. Thank you!**

This girl is as cute as everyone's favorite cookie but she's twice as sweet!

Meet Oreo - a 5 month old, Border Collie mix, who weighs 16 pounds (as of 3/16/25). This sweet girl was found as a stray after wandering onto someone's front lawn. Unfortunately her rescuers were unable to keep her, so they asked us to help find her a safe and loving home!

Her foster shares: "Oreo is a happy, healthy and playful puppy! She has your typical Collie energy so will need an active family to keep her busy and bring her along on adventures. She does like to be the alpha so would be fine with submissive pups, or an older dog that can deal with her personality. She has no problems meeting new people, but does get excited and can sometimes jump, so want to make sure we are careful around little kids!! We're working with her to keep 'four on the floor'. She would thrive with additional training and structure with her forever family!"

All dogs are up to date on vaccinations and spayed/neutered at the time of adoption. All dogs require professional training to become the best family member they can be.

PLEASE READ: If a dog is listed, then s/he is currently available for adoption. Their information is correct to the best of our abilities and the information we have been given as of the day of posting. From time to time we receive new information/photos of a dog and we do recreate their listing, which means their old listing link will no longer be valid. If you are considering a dog but don't apply right away please make sure to search for the dog by name if the link you have no longer works.

Please note, GDRNE does not guarantee the breed of any dog or puppy unless stated that we have run DNA. All breeds listed are educated estimates. Note that if the dog is listed as an "Out of town pet" there are NOT additional transport fees - it is included in our adoption fee Our dogs are rescued from various situations. It is most likely that both their parents were strays and even if not, mixes of some sort and that their grandparents were mixes as well. The dog may have some genetic material of an American Staffordshire Terrier (pit bull). The dogs are usually mixes of many breeds, making them a breed all their own - a True and adorable American MUTT. If you are interested in this dog, you must submit an application. Great Dog is not a shelter so there is no building you can visit. Our dogs live in private foster homes until adopted.
