About Trim

Meet Trim, a stunning black and white purebred Border Collie with a long coat. He’s 8 years old and weighs 47 pounds, radiating health and love. Trim has spent his life working on a farm herding sheep, so he thrives on exercise and adventure. This gentle companion enjoys hikes, strolls, and loves to splash around in water. Trim would do best in a home with a fenced yard where he can roam and explore freely. He’s crate trained and quite intelligent, so settling into a household routine should be seamless. While Trim gets along with kids and other female dogs, he dreams of being the sole focus of a loving family. He'll be neutered before adoption, which may enhance his sociability with male dogs. Trim has not been tested with cats yet. If you seek a loyal and gentle companion who enjoys outdoor activities but has left the puppy antics behind, Trim could be your ideal match! Adoption donation: $300. Prospective adopters must have an approved application before meeting Trim and be within a 90-mile radius of High Point, NC.
