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

Meet Buffy - a 2 1/2 year old, Border Collie mix, who weighs 50 pounds (as of 2/7/25). Sweet Buffy was pulled from a local shelter, and we are excited to help her find her forever family! She has been waiting such a long time for her forever family. We know her pictures aren't great - but read about her. We promise this girl is not to be passed over!!

She is house trained leash walks very well, knows to sit for a treat, loves to eat (anything), car rides great, soft toys. She lays down to eat. She will go from excited to couch potato in an instant. Loves tummy rubs. Loves to be close to her person. Likes to sit in a chair and look out the window.

Her foster shares: "Buffy is the most lovable couch potato! She is very sweet, playful and loving! She loves all her furry friends in foster care and loves to make new human friends wherever she goes. There isn't a human that has met her that doesn't think she is amazing!! She enjoys long walks and walks very well on a leash. She loves playing with toys and getting treats. She does great in her crate and is fully housebroken. And if that isn't enough - she absolute LOVES. being around kids! She will make a wonderful family pet or loving companion!"

There is nothing about this dog that is less than perfect...other than her photos! We promise you won't be sorry taking a chance on Buffy!!

Medical note for Buffy: One of Buffy's ears is not attached at the bottom due to the procedure she had to undergo to remove cauliflower ear when coming into rescue, but rest assured it causes her no pain or discomfort and needs no treatment.

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.
