Border Collie Rat Terrier Mix for Adoption in Augusta, Maine

Meet Orie, a spirited 3-year-old female Border Collie and Rat Terrier mix, currently seeking her forever home in Augusta, Maine.

 

Weighing in at a manageable 41 pounds, Orie embodies the perfect blend of intelligence and energy.

 

Her striking white and sable coat complements her keen mind and enthusiastic nature.

 

Orie thrives on positive reinforcement and is eager to showcase her repertoire of commands, including a precise heel.

 

Whether rain or shine, she delights in outdoor adventures, making her an ideal companion for active individuals.

 

Her innate scent-tracking abilities suggest she would excel in activities like barn hunts or scent work.
