About Fern

Meet Fern. This gorgeous Border Collie/Husky mix is full of energy and personality. Rescued in May 2026 at just about six months old, she came to us from Woodbury, TN, along with her puppy, Rumble, after their owner faced some hard times. Fern’s birthday is November 20, 2025, making her a young and lively companion. Fern thrives on activity and is currently receiving professional training while staying with a caring foster family. She's highly intelligent and needs a home that can offer her plenty of mental and physical stimulation—this girl is definitely not a couch potato! Though she’s not house trained yet, she gets along well with both dogs and children, making her a wonderful addition to an active family. Her adoption fee of $400 covers all her vaccinations, spay, microchip, and more. Ready to meet her? Click apply to start the adoption process.
