Who We Are
We are the Jacksonville-area chapter of ColliesFlorida Rescue. The goal of ColliesFlorida Rescue is to aid, foster and rehome abandoned and neglected collies in Florida.
ColliesFlorida Rescue is a 501(c)(3) tax exempt organization based in Miami, FL.
We do not have a shelter. The collies in our program all live as family pets in foster homes. Our ability to help collies is limited by the number and availability of foster homes.
Is a Collie Right for Your Family?
Please take the time to read this terrific introduction to the temperament, health problems, and grooming and exercise needs of collies. Rough and Smooth Collies: Breed Information

Fostering is Fun and Rewarding!!
Give fostering a try...and save the life of a homeless collie!
Families and local shelters contact us to take unwanted or stray collies. Collies, who may otherwise be destroyed at an over-crowded shelter, are temporarily placed with a Foster Family until a Forever Family is found. We only ask that the Foster Family provide the collie with food, shelter and love. We pay any needed medical expenses.
Go to our ColliesFlorida Rescue website and click at the top on Forms to submit a Foster Home Application and read the Guidelines.
Saving just one dog won't change the world.
But it surely will change the world for that one dog.
