About Talty

Talty's journey hasn’t been easy. This young Border Collie was abandoned in the countryside, struggling to survive alone for months. He roamed a large pasture, crossing busy roads just to get by. Sadly, his buddy was picked up back in December, but Talty was left behind. Fortunately, in February, he found safety through our rescue. Despite his past, Talty is a sweet and friendly dog, eager to bond and be part of a family. He's fully vetted, neutered, microchipped, and current on all vaccinations, which includes Bordetella. Heartworm negative and on preventative, he is healthy and ready for a new chapter in life. Talty gets along well with other dogs and is also great with children. After experiencing fear and loneliness, he deserves a forever home filled with love. Talty is looking for a foster or forever family who will cherish him. Let’s help him find that happy ending he’s been waiting for. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
