 INTAKE PHOTO

Breed: Border Collie Mix (Black & White) 

6 years 
(Spayed) 
33.2 lbs 

Heartworm Status: Negative 

Koda came in as a stray and is dog friendly. 

She knows several commands including sit, stay, lay down, and spin. 

She loves treats, listens very well, and is very smart and eager to please. 

Hold Time Ends: 3/31 

 

URGENT: We are currently over capacity, and  we are losing 18 kennels due to renovations. As an open-admission shelter, we cannot stop the intake of stray animals. All animals who have passed their hold times are at immediate risk once their hold time is up. Firm commitments with pickup dates are urgently needed to prevent euthanasia 

 

Lexington County Services in Lexington, South Carolina is in need of assistance placing these dogs with a rescue! These are available to a 501c3 rescue only. We do exhaust every resource possible but unfortunately due to overcrowding dogs do become at risk of being euthanized. *WHILE HERE* in our care we can provide additional photos, video, vaccines, heartworm tests, health certificates, RABIES VACCINES or any behavioral assessments that may be needed. Please make sure all communication is done via email to so that we can keep track of all communications.  We do have a phone used for rescue to call during an emergency or when we are away from the office such as transporting. The phone number is 803-465-5726. We respond to rescue inquiries Monday through Friday 8am-5pm (EST) and it is checked regularly. We offer free transportation Monday through Friday during business hours locally which would be the area of Lexington County, City of Columbia, or Richland County. Our staff is very passionate about getting all of these wonderful dogs to safety and will help in any way possible!  

When inquiring about a dog, an animal ID number is required and not just their name. Include a note at the end of every email stating what rescue you are with.
