Bandit Border Collie & Black Labrador Retriever Mix Farmington, MN

Hello. My name is Bandit. My mom is a boarder collie and my dad is a lab. I am a shy boy at first but I warm up to new situations. I would do best with another dog and a fenced in yard. In my foster home, I enjoy running around the yard and playing with the other dogs.
I am doing good on potty training, but I will need continued training in my new home. Through routine and consistency, I know to go to the door and know"potty" I will need time to adjust to a new routine in a new environment.

I am a happy boy that loves to play, cuddle and give kisses.

Adoption Fee: $550 (no checks)

Our fosters do the best they can to provide all information about the animal's background and temperament while in foster care in their home. An adopters routine and home environment is likely going to be different than that in their foster home. Sometimes there is more that comes out about a dog's personality once they have been able to settle in a home & truly become comfortable. There are great articles out there written about the different stages a pet goes through after adoption; discussing transitions that happen at 3 days, 3 weeks, & 3 months. We highly recommend reading about this - it will help you understand the transition your new pet goes through.

Last Hope, Inc. is an all volunteer, foster based, no kill rescue! You can see almost all of our dogs on the 1st and 3rd Saturdays of each month from 11 am - 2 pm at Apple Valley Petco (7590 150th St W, Apple Valley, MN 55124)

Policies: You do not have to have a fence to adopt a dog from us, but some dogs will require a fence or acres to play, or an active family who will make sure the dog gets the exercise it needs to be happy. Some dogs do not have the temperament that will do well with young children.

The Adoption Fee is not enough to cover the vet bills. Sales tax of almost 7.25% is also included in the adoption fee that you see. Please consider donating to Last Hope to help us save these animals!
