Our Foster Dogs

Dogs in Foster Care

The Border Collies in our care can change from week to week. If you don’t see a Border Collie that you think would fit happily into your home, check back regularly. Each Border Collie has a loving foster home who will be happy to answer any questions.

To learn more about being approved as a Potential Adopter, read our Adoption page. The whole process may take a month or more as all WBCR members are volunteers and we are committed to making a perfect match for our Border Collies. Thank you for your patience!
