Elvis - Border Collie

Elvis was found wandering around High Park. Someone's taken good care of him. He's friendly. He's healthy, well-groomed. He's trained. I wonder about his story, what the circumstances were which lead to him getting abandoned. Somebody cared about Elvis once.

Elvis is very smart but then he is a Border Collie. I once saw a news report about a Border Collie who knew more than a thousand words and was learning more every day which is pretty cool because as I get older, I forget more and more words every day.




The best way to check on the adoption status of this dog (and other dogs and cats and other small domestic animals) is to visit Toronto Animal Services adoption website or call 416 338 6668 for the Toronto Animal Services South shelter. If the dog is no longer on the TAS adoption website, it's probably because it's been adopted already.

  1. OMG, simple words can't quite capture this magnificent dog. This Elvis is so so endearing in so many ways. I so wish he could be mine, but then Fred, I wish you could be mine too! Ha Ha

    Love like you never have before.
    Show it like you never have before.
    All of us need this now more than ever.

  2. What a noble, sweet-looking dog. Great pics, Fred! I have sent your post on Elvis to a friend who may be the perfect match for him: settled, stable, experienced dog owner, wonderfully kind, can bring him to her work...here's hoping he is meant to be hers. If it works out I will tell you!

    Thank you Fred.

  3. Love those BCs. Elvis looks introspective. I hope he finds someone he can rock and roll with.

  4. I checked the TAS site - it appears that Elvis has left the building...

  5. I have a border collie who looks just like that, her story was that her and her litter were dumped in a trash can and the trash people found them just in time. When we got her she had a deadly stomach virus. She is a very happy dog, and I would recommend a border collie to anyone, who loves dogs of course.
