About Musgrove

Meet Musgrove, a lively and intelligent Border Collie with oodles of personality! This handsome boy is a master at charming everyone he meets. Musgrove has a unique way of expressing himself and might give a little bark when greeting newcomers—it’s just his way of announcing your arrival! Treats work wonders to win his heart. Musgrove is a loyal companion ready to share his affection with you. His foster family has dedicated time to teach him important commands, and he’s got quite the repertoire: "sit," "lay down," "shake," "stay," and even "go get your ball." As a Border Collie, he has lots of energy and a brain that needs to stay active. He thrives best in a structured home where someone is present most of the day, as he can get a bit rambunctious if left alone for too long. He’s crate-trained and adjusts well if given things to keep him busy like Kongs or bully sticks. Musgrove is also great with kids, other dogs, and even cats, making him the perfect family pet. He’s ready for an active household where he can continue his training and get plenty of companionship. If you’re looking for a devoted friend who will keep you on your toes, Musgrove just might be the one for you. Ready to meet this incredible pup? Bring a treat—and a ball—when you visit!
