Midwest Border Collie Rescue

Relinquish Informationgadogs

We here at Midwest Border Collie Rescue understand that Border Collies can be a lot of work. We realize that not all families/owners are able to cope with a BC's high energy. If you would like help with behavior/training issues your BC might be experiencing, please feel free to contact us. We'll be happy to help you. If you wish to relinquish your Border Collie, we can help with that too. We try to make the relinquishment process as painless as possible. We know firsthand how difficult it can be to give up a loved pet that has been a member of your family for years.

Each dog that enters the rescue is placed in a loving and experienced foster home. Once there, it will be evaluated (check to see if the dog is housebroken, okay with kids, leash trained, etc.) in order for us to determine the best possible adopter.

If you can no longer keep your pet and are looking for a reliable rescue, please fill out the relinquishment form.

In order to process your relinquishment request, we must receive this completed form along with photos of the dog you wish to relinquish. Photos must be sent as soon after submitting the form as possible. All photos should be taken within five (5) feet of the dog at the dog's level.

Three poses will need to be taken...
1) full body shot of left side while standing
2) full body shot of right side while standing
3) front face shot.

If the tail is not visible in either of the side views, please include a picture of the dog from the back, so that the tail is in full view. Samples below:
