Assorted BCs There is now
a website
specifically to list working dogs in pounds. If you would consider adopting a
BC direct from a pound, then please have a look. Many dogs die each week in
pounds due to the lack of sufficient good homes. Click

Rigby --- (posted 5/9/2017) ---
Rigby currently lives on a hobby farm, and although he has plenty of
space he wants more to do. Rigby is
proving to be a fantastic dog, extremely obedient and great with other
dogs. He has proven himself good with command, keen to work, and he
exercises some control with working with the two farm sheep. His desire to
work, work and run, is not being satisfied on the hobby farm, and a
home where he might be able to work more is sought. Rigby would be a
great candidate for competitive herding, or another active dog sport.
For more information on Rigby please contact Lisa on 0411440866
or email L271163@gmail.com
Lincoln --- (posted 12/9/2017) ---
Lincoln is a beautiful, classically marked boy who needs a new home
through no fault of his own. Lincoln loves to be active, and so a home
looking for an active companion would be ideal. Lincoln has no formal
training but he is a lovely boy with no vices. He is scared of
thunderstorms. Lincoln will be desexed before he is rehomed. If you
were after a BC that was past puppyhood, and who's personality is
fully formed you might be very happy with Lincoln. For more info
please contact Barbara on 0409160758
Kokoda and Jeddah --- (posted 5/10/2017) ---
A change in family circumstances sees this pair of BCs looking for a
new home, preferably together. They are both housetrained, and they
get on well together, but Jeddah would prefer a home with no other
dogs than Kokoda. She gets on well with cats, but doesn't like possums.
Kokoda is red and white and is a very soft boy. He also gets on with
cats, and is intimidated by dogs he doesn't know.
For more info on this pair please contact Julie on
0412493303.
CJ --- (posted 5/11/2017) ---
CJ is a sweet soul looking for a new home due to no fault of his own. He is a
beloved family pet who currently lives with a 2 1/2 human boy with whom
there have been no issues. (Like any BC he is exciteable and strong,
and so he is not recommended as a playmate for toddlers.) He is good with humans and other dogs, tho
he will bark at a stranger visiting the house. CJ likes to be with his
people, walking, chilling in front of the TV - whatever you want to
do. CJ does have skin issues in reaction to some brands of dog food,
and this needs to be managed with his diet. For more info on CJ please
contact Jessie at jessieannelee@hotmail.com
Mature BCs --- (posted 5/1/2018) ---
There is a ready-made BC family looking for a new home or homes in
Bathurst. Due to changed circumstances new homes are being sought.
They can be separated, or not. The primary concern is that they are
loved in their new places. There are two females, Panda and Bonny and
one male Zorro. Panda is the youngest, being 8 yo, and she would be
best in a home with no new dogs, and definitely no cats or pocket
pets. All three are long coated, working dogs, but pet homes are sought. If you
would like the company of a BC (or two) that is past its wilder
youthful years, then this might be the answer for you. For more info
on these lovely dogs please contact Julie on 0421 203 619.
Harry and Bronson --- (posted 20/1/2018) ---
Due to a sad change in circumstances this pair of boys are urgently
seeking a new home. They can be separated if necessary. Harry is a BC
lab cross with a BC markings and fuller coat, and one blue eye. He is
a friendly, loving boy and a snuggler. Bronson is a kelpie lab cross,
yellow with a short coat, and the fine bones and long legs of a
kelpie. He loves to swim. He is also a sweetie, who loves people and will sit in your
lap if you let him. Both boys are desexed. If you would like more info
about Harry and Bronson please contact Naomee on atchinastud@yahoo.com
Zahri --- (posted 20/1/2018) ---
Zahri is a very pretty and active girl. She looks more like a lab than
a BC, with her yellow short coat, but she has a BC frame with slender
legs and pricked ears. She also has a BC temperament. Zahri loves people
and she loves having something to do. Extended games of fetch are
wonderful! When playing with other dogs,
one of them will have to be the 'sheep' so that Zahri has something to
herd. She is quite boisterous in her play too, so dogs of similar size
would be desirable in a multi-dog home. Zahri is OK with children, but
like many BCs can be overwhelmed by loud and exuberant toddlers so a
family with older children would be ideal. Zahri is toilet trained and knows lots of
commands, and is used to walking off-lead. Some training in on-lead
walking will be needed if that is required. Like any BC, Zahri will
need ongoing management and training, with considerable mental and
physical stimulation to keep her content. For more info on Zahri
please contact Vivienne on 0438 725 241
