Meet Cory, an eight-year-old Border Collie mix weighing 40 pounds. Cory’s story hasn’t been an easy one, but you’d never know it from the love she’s ready to give. She came to Animal Control as an owner surrender alongside her companion, Jamie, both in rough condition. Cory arrived with missing fur and itchy, flaking skin from chronic issues that had gone untreated—but now that she’s receiving proper care, we’re hopeful her coat and comfort will continue to improve. She’s also missing some of her front teeth, likely due to past trauma—possibly from trying to chew her way out of confinement. Despite everything she’s been through, Cory hasn’t lost her spirit. This sweet girl still has plenty of energy, curiosity, and affection to share. Cory is learning that the world can be a safe and happy place. She’s currently working on leash training and is eager to please—she truly wants to be close to her person and soak up attention. So much is new to her, but she approaches it all with a gentle, loving heart. She’s a wonderful medium size, keeps a clean kennel, and has a calm, manageable presence. Cory would absolutely love to be adopted with Jamie if possible, as they’ve been through so much together—but it’s not a requirement. If you’re looking for a resilient, sweet companion who just needs a chance to shine, Cory might be your girl. This pet is available for adoption on 5.1.26 at the Yakima Humane Society adoption center. If you recognize this animal please contact the adoption center at 509-457-6854.
