Hello! My name is Tally. I am 3 years old. I am a black and white Border Collie mix. I would love to have my furever home with you. I know all my basic commands and I work for FOOD! I am house and crate trained, and I am very gentle when taking treats. I would love to be someone’s one and only. I don’t always get along with other female dogs. 
I like to sit in your lap, ( even tho I am a little big for that. ) I love belly rubs.
I like to be with you all the time but I am well behaved when left alone uncrated. I wait patiently for your return. 
I love to ride and also ride in the gator with my foster mom. While my foster sister and brother are barking away I sit quietly and enjoy the ride. I would love to take my rides with you! 
Tallis (Tally) was hit by a car about a year ago and was found on the side of the road. She had a broken femur bone. She was taken into care by our Rescue volunteers and brought to a vet for care. She has healed from these injuries well and doesn’t have a limp or any indication of having had a broken leg.
She was previously adopted after this injury, but was returned through no fault of her own. She has adjusted well to this new foster home and is ready again for adoption. 
Please note: The information below is from Tally's original stay with GLBCR in 2022. This girl is the sweetest thing but she can also be very intense and driven. She has a lot of energy and loves running, playing ball, or tugging. Although Tally would rather be on the go, she’s also happy to entertain herself with toys or a chew until you’re ready for some cuddles. She’s guaranteed to make you laugh if you watch long enough; she has the goofiest personality! 
Tally can get possessive over toys especially when excited. She will air snap and should be watched around children and other dogs. Her ideal home would have older or dog savvy children and she’d love to be an only dog. She plays and gets along well with her foster brother, but can be rude to him. Tally is friendly but intrusive in greeting other dogs which isn’t always welcome. 
Tally is extremely smart, eager to please, and motivated. She picks up new cues and patterns quickly and loves treats. She’ll also remind you if you’re not doing something fast enough or correctly. She has earned the nickname “loudmouth” both for her opinions and volume.
