Midwest Border Collie Rescue

❤️ Want to help more dogs like the ones pictured here? BECOME A FOSTER! ❤️

Every dog in these photos has something in common: They got their second chance because someone opened their home to them!

Midwest Border Collie Rescue is a completely foster-based rescue. We do not have a shelter building or kennels. Every dog we save lives in a foster home while waiting for their forever family.

That means one simple truth:

🐾 When we have foster homes, we can save dogs.
🐾 When we don’t have foster homes, we have to say no.

WHAT DOES FOSTERING MEAN?

❤️ Providing a temporary home for a homeless Border Collie.
❤️ Helping us learn about their personality, needs, and ideal home.
❤️ Giving them a safe place to decompress, heal, play, and thrive.
❤️ Saving not just one dog, but creating space for the next dog who needs help.

We know fostering isn’t always easy. You may shed a few tears when they leave. But, every adoption creates space for another Border Collie in need… and that’s how lives are saved.

If you have Border Collie or herding breed experience, understand the breed’s unique characteristics, needs, quirks, and can provide a temporary home, WE NEED YOU.

The dogs in these photos were once the dogs waiting for help, and now the next success story is out there waiting. Will you help us reach them?

📩 Message us to learn more about becoming a foster, or apply to foster on our website.

‼️ JESSE NEEDS YOUR HELP ‼️

Jesse is a 2-year-old Border Collie mix who has been waiting far too long for a place to call home. 🥺

After a rough start in life, Jesse has blossomed into a smart, affectionate, and loyal dog. He’s housebroken, walks well on leash, eager to please, and has proven to enjoy being around other dogs. He loves rolling in the grass, carrying around his favorite ball, snuggling with his people, and joining in on adventures… or, even just relaxing on the couch!

Jesse is looking for a quiet home with adults or older teens who understand herding breeds and can provide the structure that helps them thrive. Because of his herding instincts, he’s not a fit for homes with young children or cats.

💙 Smart
💙 Snuggly
💙 Dog-Friendly
💙 Housebroken
💙 Ready for a fresh start

Jesse urgently needs an adopter. He’s an amazing dog who simply needs the right person to give him a chance!

Jesse needs our help finding his people. If you’re not in a position to adopt, please share this post. Every share increases the chance that the right person sees him. ❤️🐾
