Collin along with 6 other dogs got their lucky break and made their way to our rescue on December 22nd to avoid a "kill day" at a shelter in Kentucky.  We are so glad we were able to rescue Collin (along with the other 6 dogs!) as this dog is just such a good boy!

Collin was a considered a "long-timer" at the STAR shelter and the volunteers were so happy that we were taking him.  Keep in mind, he was only there for about 8 weeks, but that is a long time for a kill shelter.  Collin was constantly overlooked because he was just another big black dog and big black dogs are a dime a dozen in the south :-(  Well, we can tell you that Collin is a wonderful dog and very well behaved.  He is probably around 18 months to 2 years old and around 60 pounds.  His fur is medium in length and silky to touch.  He is very handsome boy and has some brindle markings on his face.  Collin is a very sweet, friendly dog and gets along well with other dogs....both male and female.  He is housebroken and crate trained, but could use some training on a leash.  We have also found that he is very fearful around cars and we have to "load" him into the car.  It appears that something traumatizing happened to him around or in a vehicle and it may take some patience and work to desensitize him to riding in a car. 

Collin is neutered, current on rabies and distemper vaccines, and tested negative on his heartworm test.  His adoption fee is $250. 

If you are interested in this handsome boy, please complete an application on our website at www.worthytails.rescuegroups.org.  For any questions, please send an email to Shannon at shannon.marie.walters@gmail.com.

Thank you for considering a rescue dog!
