OREO

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 4 years

OREO (M) - 2 YEARS - Looking for adopters BLCW134005172, adoptable in France, Belgium, Netherlands, Switzerland. Characteristics: Date of birth: 5/09/2022 Gender: Male Registered with LOF/LOSH/ISDS: No Disabilities: No Child friendly: Yes Dog friendly: After introduction Cat friendly: No, he chases other animals outside. Other friendly: No. Personality: Oréo is a very friendly border collie; he lacks socialization; his owners separated and could not keep him. Oréo lived with a quite calm Australian shepherd and it was going well; he only knows walks on a leash and needs to meet other animals of the same species to socialize. We will avoid cats as he tends to chase them. He loves children and just wants to play. He remains alone without destroying (he cries a little). He is currently living with his owner's mother, in a house with a garden, but this cannot last much longer. He is not allowed inside the house and must stay in the garage with his bed and dishes, and access to the garden. He digs when he is bored. He is a friendly and affectionate dog; he welcomed our volunteer enthusiastically, seeking cuddles. He shows his enthusiasm and desire to play. Otherwise, outside he ignores people. He clearly lacks activities and interactions. Story: Oréo was adopted as a puppy by a family that unfortunately separated and could not keep him; currently he is staying with the parents as a temporary solution, but this is not a solution for him or them. Ideal home: It would be good for Oréo to have an active family ready to invest in his education and socialization; he has good foundations and is not a difficult dog. Like any border collie, he needs a lot of mental and physical activities and interactions. He is a very affectionate and loving dog. Borderline Collie is a non-profit association. In order to continue our work of welcoming and retraining border collies, we ask for a participation fee for the dogs we rehome. Adoption fee: 280 euros. Adoption must be a thoughtful act.

FR·Show original

Caractère: Oréo est un très gentil border collie affectueux ; il manque de sociabilisation ; ses maîtres se sont séparés et n ‘ont pas pu le garder. Oréo vivait avec un berger australien assez placide et cela se passait bien ; il ne connaît que les balades en longe et a besoin de rencontrer d autres congénères pour se sociabiliser. On évitera les chats qu il a tendance à poursuivre. Il adore les enfants et ne demande qu à jouer. Il reste seul sans détruire (pleure un peu) Il vit actuellement chez la mère de son propriétaire, dans une maison avec jardin, mais cela ne pourra pas durer très longtemps. Il n a pas le droit de rentrer dans la maison et doit rester au garage avec son panier et ses gamelles, et accès au jardin. Il fait des trous quand il s ennuie. C est un chien avenant et affectueux, il a accueilli notre bénévole avec enthousiasme, recherchant des câlins. Il montre son enthousiasme et son envie de jouer. Sinon à l extérieur il ignore les gens. Il est clairement en manque d activités et d interactions. Le foyer idéal: Il faudrait pour Oréo une famille active prête à s investir dans son éducation et sa sociabilisation ; il a de bonnes bases et n est pas un chien compliqué. Comme tout border collie il est en grande demande d activités mentales et physiques, et d interactions. C est un chien très câlin et affectueux. BorderlineCollie est une association sans but lucratif. Afin de poursuivre notre travail d'accueil et de réadaptation des Border Collies, nous demandons une participation aux frais d'adoption pour les chiens que nous replaçons. Participation aux frais d'adoption : 280 euros L’adoption doit être un acte réfléchi. Contact: Martine Thomas Mail :

About OREO

What life with OREO looks like

OREO is an adult mixed breed dog waiting at Border Line Collie in borderlinecollie.

An 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. Many refuges work with rescue transport partners for cross-border placements.

Frequently asked

Adopting OREO, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about OREO?
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 OREO on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt OREO 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is OREO 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 OREO 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 OREO 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.
