Sometimes it takes a little extra time for a TCHS animal to find the perfect fit. Rowdy, a 5-year-old Border Collie, came to TCHS with his sister, Rita Mae, in mid-October. Rowdy made it clear he preferred to go to a Rita Mae-free home. (His sis liked to boss him around!) Rowdy was such a good boy as he waited patiently for more than a month to find his home. That might not sound like a lot, but TCHS’ average length of stay for dogs is around eight days. Luckily for Rowdy, the family he got was more than worth the wait! (As for Rita Mae, she was adopted the day after Rowdy.)
“Rowdy has been such a gentle giant since we brought him home. He loves to be outside and watch all the little critters running around. He also loves to play with any dogs - all dogs. He bows down and gets all wiggly excited trying to get another dog to play back.”
Rowdy is “super smart” and can figure out any puzzle treat his family gives him. He’s also been a great companion to his older doggie sibling, Moose.
“He gives him little kisses and checks in with him often when we are out and about. He's been a perfect addition to our family.”
Good boy, Rowdy! We're so happy for you!
