My name is Meriot and I am a 10-12-month-old male Border Collie who weighs about 48 lbs. I was found as a stray in Southern California and made my way north to find my forever adventure partner! Let's be clear right away: I am a Border Collie, which means I come with BIG energy, a busy brain, and a love for action. If you enjoy high-flying fun, constant movement, and a dog who thinks every day is a party, you're going to think I'm the life of it. If you were hoping for a couch potato... I am not your guy. I'm young, athletic, and ready to learn all the things - I'll need continued training, daily exercise, and mental stimulation to help me be my best self. Hikes, games, puzzles, and active lifestyles are right up my alley. If you're ready to keep up with a true working-dog personality and want a smart, energetic companion who will make every day more exciting, I'd love to meet you and start my next adventure with you!
