(SCR), a non-profit corporation located in the <B>Los Angeles, California</B> area, coordinates for several Collie Rescues in the Southland. All of our Collie Rescues find homes for <B><A href="coats.html">purebred Collies</A></B> and, when possible, Collie mixes from shelters, from people who have taken in strays, and from owners who can no longer care for their Collie. We foster our rescued Collies in private homes throughout Los Angeles and adjacent counties.</P> <p>We do not adopt our rescued collies to homes outside Southern California. If you are outside Southern California, please see <a href="http://www.collierescue.com" target="_blank"> Michigan's Tri-Counties Collie Rescue</a>, where you'll find a list of Collie Rescues by state. We hope you will find the right Collie Rescue there.</p> <P>Southland Collie Rescue overall rescues about 200 Collies each year. About 100 of those Collies must be rescued during the summer months, when so many people abandon or give up their dogs. We buy the dogs out of animal shelters, make sure they are spayed/neutered and provide medical treatment. We then place them in one of our private foster homes, where they are fed, groomed and loved as if they were one of the fosterer's own dogs.</P> <P>We find adopters for our rescued Collies through newspaper ads (L.A. TIMES), from other rescue organizations such as HART (Humane Animal Rescue Team) and by word of mouth. We conduct phone interviews and visit potential adopters' homes before any adoption takes place.</P> <P>We've received support from Collie people in many areas, including the Collie Club of America and several local Collie Clubs, especially South Bay Collie Fanciers.</P> </FONT> </BODY>
