About Calvin
Meet Calvin – Your New Best Friend!
Calvin is a sweet and spirited 11-month-old Border Collie mix who is a petite 40 pounds with a heart full of love, a tail that never stops wagging, and a snuggle game that's top-notch. Calvin is neutered and vaccinated and ready to head off to his forever home!
Calvin absolutely adores people and children, and he gets along beautifully with dogs of all sizes. His dream family would be one where he has playmates, whether that's other pups, kids, or both, and plenty of time spend together being active.
This smart boy has come a long way from his rough start, having spent most of his young life in a dog run at a shelter in California. Calvin was reduced from a euthanasia list where he was listed because his kennel mate was diagnosed with Parvo. Calvin never contracted from Parvo and was rescued by his foster parents 24 hours before his euthanasia time. Now, he's enjoying the good life! Calvin is potty trained, walking nicely on a leash, and riding calmly in the car. He's eager to please, bonds deeply with his people, and never says no to a good cuddle session after some playtime.
Calvin's favorite activities include playing fetch, playing in a kiddie pool, curling up next to his humans, and running around outside. He's ready for a home where adventure, love, and affection are part of every day.
If you're looking for a loyal, playful, and affectionate companion, Calvin is your guy!
