njnovice Posted October 30, 2007 Report Share Posted October 30, 2007 My spouse and I are hoping to get a bc within the next few months -- hopefully a rescue. We both understand the special needs and quirks of the breed, and would love to get involved in agility or herding. I just wanted to touch base cyberlly and say hello.

What part of Northern NJ are you in ? I am in PA right across the river (actually 2 rivers to NJ) and there is a rescue not far from me which is getting a BC puppy (or a few) in next month. If you are not that for from PA (suburbs outside of Phila) I can send you the link if you are interested. Ours just turned 6 months - we were pretty nervous about getting her with all the stories and as you say quirks of the breed but it turned out to be a great move. She has been just great and my kids love her and she is really good with everyone. Actually all the relatives kids love her, she is on the small side but she'll just play with them all day.

Probably 90 minutes to two hours from Philly (I grew up across the river in NJ). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pat W. Posted October 30, 2007 Report Share Posted October 30, 2007 There are a couple of good rescues in our area, unfortunately neither are in NJ. I foster for MABCR (Mid Atlantic Border Collie Rescue) they are based out of Maryland but have fosters all over. I live outside of Quakertown Pa about an hour north of Philly. The other is Glenhighland Farms up in central New York Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BC in Da House Posted November 1, 2007 Report Share Posted November 1, 2007 In Morris County. Probably 90 minutes to two hours from Philly (I grew up across the river in NJ). Ok you are really 'North' than. Yep probably too far from the place I was aware. I am sure there are enough places in the Morris Count area or even in the nearby NY area. Good luck with whatever you opt for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
