About Hero
Meet Hero!
Hero is a handsome 6-year-old rough-coated tricolor Collie with a heart as big as his name. This affectionate boy enjoys being around his people and is always happy to soak up attention and companionship.
For a mature Collie, Hero remains surprisingly active and would love a home that can keep him engaged with daily walks, adventures, and quality time together. He gets along well with other dogs and would enjoy having a canine companion, although he would also be happy as the center of attention in the right home.
Hero is currently working on his leash manners and continues to make progress. Like many Collies, he thrives with gentle guidance, consistency, and positive reinforcement.
Because of his energy level and enthusiasm, Hero is looking for a home without small children. He would do best with adopters who appreciate an active, affectionate dog and are committed to helping him continue building his confidence and skills.
If you’re looking for a loyal companion who still has plenty of life, love, and adventure ahead of him, Hero may be the perfect addition to your family.
If Hero strikes your fancy and you are ready to help him continue to be the best Collie citizen ever, please fill out an adoption application today! Don’t wait! And if Hero is not your cup of tea, we have many more Collies of all ages coming in weekly. Please visit https://tristatecollierescue.org/how-to-adopt/ to complete the adoption application.
