Robin Born 2/5/2026 | Available 4/2/2026 Robin is named after a cheerful little songbird, which is fitting because she is basically sunshine with legs... that occasionally chooses chaos for enrichment. Daughter of Raven (Border Collie, intellectual authority) and an Australian Cattle Dog (high-speed decision maker), Robin comes standard with quick wit, quicker zoomies, and a personality that refuses to be background noise. At five weeks old, she has perfected the art of joy with momentum. She doesn't walk, she arrives. Usually at speed. Occasionally sideways. She doesn't just play. She hosts events. A toy is not enjoyed. It is showcased. A cuddle is not requested. It is scheduled immediately. Her current areas of expertise include: Full-body tail wags that require commitment Sibling hype coordination (she will get everyone involved) Precision pouncing with enthusiastic overdelivery Being so charming it feels like a setup Robin is that perfect mix of bright little optimist and tiny chaos enthusiast, the kind of puppy who makes everything feel more fun simply by being there... and possibly slightly louder. Energy: upbeat, affectionate, delightfully extra Motivation: snacks, attention, and whatever is happening over there By April 2nd, Robin will be ready to fly the coop and assume her role as Chief Morale Officer. Adopting Robin means gaining a best friend who will love you loudly... and make sure life is never boring again.

The adoption fee for adult dogs covers age appropriate vaccinations, microchip, spay/neuter if not yet performed, heartworm test & appropriate heartworm treatment by the rescue's vet. All dogs in our care are also kept up-to-date on HW/Flea Prevention.

Labels are necessary for postings to many animal networking sites, such as our website, Chewy, Pet Finder, and others. These are in no way a guarantee.
