How do I contact the shelter about JOEY?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Border Line Collie handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw JOEY on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt JOEY if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Border Line Collie will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.

Is JOEY already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?

Most dogs on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.

What happens if JOEY isn't the right fit?

Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work — that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with Border Line Collie early rather than rehoming privately; they know JOEY and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.

Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?

TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (FR). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Young · 2 years

JOEY (M) 2 years old, urgently looking for a FA or adoption by BorderLineCollie Characteristics Date of birth: 4/01/2021 Gender: Male Registered with LOF/LOSH/ISDS: No Disabilities: No Child compatibility: Yes, from adolescence Dog compatibility: Yes Cat compatibility: Yes Other compatibility: Not known Character Joey came to his current owners as a puppy. From the beginning, he has shown aggression to defend his possessions. His owners consulted a behavior therapist directly. After that, their next problem was managing their time. Also, they had a young child who was starting to crawl and they did not trust Joey. History Joey is a calm, attentive, playful, intelligent and eager to learn dog. He finds visitors and strangers outside exciting. First, he is hesitant, but eventually comes to meet, sniff and ask for a cuddle. Joey takes things in the house such as his sleeping spot, food, a bone and his toys and defends them with growling. Fortunately, he has never bitten. He only defends his toys when you want to take them. When playing, he doesn't growl and gives it to you like that. Being alone at home is no problem. He knows the crate and happily accompanies you in the car. Joey has attended several canine training classes with his owners. He knows the basic commands. Where he knows the environment, he can run off-leash while walking. He comes quite well when you call him. He doesn't try to direct traffic. When passing through a field, Joey finds the sheep interesting. He hasn't been tested with sheep yet. What kind of forever home are we looking for for Joey? Adopters who have enough self-confidence and know how to read a dog's behavior well. New owners who continue to try to control his possessive aggression. In addition, it is very important to provide him with enough physical and mental challenges.

JOEY (M) 2 ans, à la recherche de FA URGEMMENT ou en adoption par BorderLineCollie Caractéristiques Date de naissance: 4/01/2021 Sexe: Mâle Inscrit au LOF/LOSH/ISDS: Non Handicaps: Non Entente enfants: oui, à partir de l'adolescence Entente chiens: oui Entente chats: oui Entente autre: non connu CaractèreJoey est venu chez ses propriétaires actuels comme chiot. Depuis le début, il a démontré de l'agression pour défendre ses possessions. Ses maîtres ont fait appel à un thérapeute comportemental directement. Après ça, leur problème suivant était gérer leur temps. Aussi, ils avaient un petit enfant qui commençait à ramper et ils ne faisaient pas confiance à Joey. HistoireJoey est un chien tranquille, attentif, joueur, intelligent et désireux d'apprendre. Des visiteurs et des inconnus à l'extérieur, il les trouve excitant. En premier lieu il est hésitant, mais finalement il vient faire connaissance, renifler et demander un câlin. Joey s'approprie des choses dans la maison comme sa place à dormir, de la nourriture, un os et ses jouets et il les défend en grognant. Heureusement, il n'a jamais mordu. Il ne défend ses jouets que quand tu veux les prendre. En jouant, il ne grogne pas et il te le donne comme ça. Rester seul à la maison ne pose aucun problème. Il connaît la cage et t'accompagne avec plaisir dans la voiture. Joey a suivi avec ses maîtres plusieurs cours à l'éducation canine. Il connaît les commandes de base. Là où il connaît l'environnement, il peut courir sans laisse en promenant. Il vient assez bien quand tu l'appelles. Il n'essaye pas de conduire le trafic. Quand on passe par un pré, Joey trouve les moutons intéressants. Il n'a pas encore été testé avec les moutons. Quel type de forever home cherche-t-on pour Joey? Des adoptants qui ont assez de confiance en soi-même et qui savent bien lire le comportement d'un chien. Des nouveaux maîtres qui continuent à essayer de contrôler son agression de possession. A côté de ça, il est très important de lui offrir assez de défis physiques et mentaux.

About JOEY

What life with JOEY looks like

JOEY is a young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Border Line Collie in borderlinecollie.

An young adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. Two reasonable walks a day plus play time is usually enough. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

🇫🇷Adopting from France

French refuges follow the SPA framework: adopters sign a cession contract that includes sterilization, vaccinations, microchip identification, and rabies passport. Fees are typically €150–€300. Many refuges work with rescue transport partners for cross-border placements.
