Cooper --- (posted 6/7/2024) ---
Cooper is a 2.5 yo old, desexed male Border Collie. My wife bought
him as a semi-retirement dog for herself but has been working 7 days a week for most
of the past year.
He is a lovely dog and has had some training and can walk well on
leash. He recently had a
four week intensive "boarding school" training experience and he is
certainly much easier to
manage and very attentive to his humans wishes. He is very
defensive of his food and the breeder says that he was the boss of the
litter in that respect.
There are two smaller, older dogs at home and he gets along well with
them but would like
them to be more playful, same for the cat.
Cooper doesn't spend much time alone at home so he hasn't developed
any boredom
related bad habits.
Our main concern is that if he gets loose from our yard due to human
error he will run up to
people and bark aggressively and we have even seen him grab a truck
driver by his pants
leg. He does not like trucks (recent training has greatly improved his
reaction to vehicles) and also wants to chase scooters and
bicycles which makes us
very nervous. Currently the excitement of freedom overcomes his
training and catching him
can be a strenuous and time consuming activity.
Given that our business commitment look like increasing, we think
Cooper deserves a home
where he can be given the education and attention he needs by people
who know and love
Border Collies. Cooper has not had contact with small children or
sheep so I would be wary
of introducing him to either without close supervision.
I suspect a semi-rural home would suit him beautifully. For more info
on Cooper please contact Peter at petercook474@gmail.com
Dom and Perri --- (posted 30/8/2025) ---
This happy and gorgeous pair of boys are looking for a new home, due to no fault
of their own, but rather and change in situation for their owners. They
love attention and get along really well together. They are very
affection with their people. Both their parents
are successful sheep herding dogs. (Dad is a BC, Mum is a kelpie).
To assist them setting into a new home, they come with a complimentary
initial consultation with Chevron Dog training in Berry, NSW. For more
info on this lovely pair please contact Charmaine at
charmaine.dogs4life@hotmail.com
Duke --- (posted 29/9/2025) ---
Duke is a beautiful and unique Border Collie who's looking for his
perfect forever home through Border Collie Rescue. He was born deaf,
which means he sees the world a little differently, but it hasn't
stopped him from being full of life, energy, and love.
He's an incredibly affectionate boy who thrives on cuddles and
connection with his people. When he's with someone he trusts, his
personality shines - playful, energetic, and sometimes a little goofy.
He loves to stay active, and his bright spirit makes him a joy to be
around.
Like many dogs with special needs, Duke requires a patient and
experienced home. He has been dealing with some aggression issues, so
he will need someone committed to working with him in a safe,
structured, and understanding environment. With the right guidance,
his potential is huge.
If you're looking for a companion who will reward your patience with
unconditional love, Duke could be the one. He's not just a dog - he's
a best friend in the making, ready for a new chapter with someone who
understands him. For more info on Duke please contact Lachlan at
lachlanbrown97@hotmail.com
Bo --- (posted 26/10/2025) ---
Bo is a 3 year old black and white female border collie. She's is a
loving dog, great with family and children. She is a typical border
collie - loves park time with fetch, frisbee and long walks. We have
done obedience and some beginner agility training with her which she
loved.
She loves people and gets on well with other dogs generally. She has
shown some reactive behaviour towards some dogs sporadically but it
hasn't been an issue. My ideal would for her to be with a family and
another dog would be a bonus. Personal circumstances is the reason for
looking for a rehome.
For more info on Bo please contact Patricia at patricia.cobh@gmail.com
River --- (posted 26/3/2026) ---
River is an extremely affectionate, obedient, friendly, and loyal BC.
River loves being around people and would thrive in a home where
someone is home most of
the time. He prefers to be the only dog so he can soak up all the
attention.
He enjoys exploring and is known to slip through fences for an
adventure - especially if there's a
dam to swim in! Because of this, he will require: A secure yard; A family
committed to supervision and spending quality time with him; and someone
who loves an affectionate, active companion.
If you think you could offer River a loving, committed forever
home, please get in touch. Contact Pauline at
paulineannsmith@bigpond.com or phone 0408 586 203
Meeka --- (posted 31/3/2026) ---
Meeka is a 4 year old border collie, friendly loveable absolutely
beautiful girl.
We do not want to have to part with her but unfortunately due to a
change in living circumstances we need to find Meeka a new forever home.
Meeka would be best suited to acreage and other dogs for companionship
especially another border collie preferably male.
Meeka would try to escape so a property with adequate fencing to
ensure she gets use to her new surroundings would be ideal.
I am preferring a foster home to begin with to benefit everyone but
mainly Meeka, my hope is she will be happy in her new home and it will
lead to adoption.
If you feel you can fulfil the above requirements and details please
contact Margaret at bradleymargaret68@gmail.com
Bodhi --- (posted 26/6/2026) ---
Bodhi is a 2 year old male BC, microchipped and up to date with
vaccinations.
Bodhi is in need of an experienced BC home, one that understands BCs
with anxiety and confidence issues, that manifest into poor behaviour.
A home with no small children and a commitmemt to managing him is
needed.
Bodhi's issues include resource guarding of food, toys, places and
people.
This can involve growling and aggression, Hence the need to an
experienced home.
Bodhi can also be reactive to other dogs.
He has had minimal training, he knows the command 'sit'.
Bodhi is a very energetic boy who's current owners are looking for
options for. If you think you may have what it takes to give Bodhi a
chance, then please contact lenny3275@yahoo.com.au
Charlie --- (posted 2/7/2026) ---
Charlie is an energetic Kelpie x Border Collie with all the traits
you'd expect. He loves people — and thrives on human companionship. He
is affectionate, loyal and happiest when he's included in family life
rather than left on his own. Charlie is great with adults and
children, but can be anxious around other dogs, particularly those
that are excitable. He would likely be best suited as the only dog, or
with a calm, settled canine companion.
Charlie would thrive with an active person or close-knit family who
can provide plenty of exercise, and most importantly, time together.
We think he'd make an exceptional one-on-one companion for someone
wanting a loyal mate to share their days with. He loves going for
walks and being involved in whatever you're doing.
He responds well to basic commands including sit, wait and come, and
walks well on a lead with firm, consistent guidance. Charlie is
vaccinated, desexed and microchipped.
Whilst making the decision to rehome Charlie has been incredibly
difficult for our family, we know finding him the right forever home
is in his best interests.
For more info on Charlie please contact Justin at justin.lepage@bigpond.com
Ovie --- (posted 2/7/2026) ---
Ovie is a 5 year old male Border Collie. He is a beautiful loving
tri-colour boy who needs a loving home with a person/ family that has
time to spend with him. He loves people and prefers to be with them
all the time, but can be left alone during the day. Ovie needs a
person/ family who is experienced with managing reactivity to other
dogs (but not all dogs). His training in managing his reactivity to
has come a long way and he will need someone with patience to continue
with this. He is ok with older children, but care should always be
taken with food guarding. Ovie loves tug and chasing balls/ toys,
although bringing them back is sometimes hard for him to do. He knows
lots of commands like sit, drop, spin, middle & shake. He is a
beautiful boy and if you think you have a loving home, patience and
time, please contact Svetlana at svetlana.k@bigpond.com
Lucky --- (posted 24/7/2026) ---
Lucky is nine months old and a sweet boy who loves kids. He is very
loyal. He can be slow to warm up but never aggressive. He is currently
in training but needs to be rehomed from his Sydney family as his
human brother suffers extreme allergies. Lucky loves cuddles, nose
pats and walkies. He's a true sweety and a beautiful family dog or
companion for someone looking for a purebred border collie. He is up
to date with all of his vaccinations, desexed and microchipped. We are
looking for someone to love him as much as we do and give him a
beautiful life. For more information on Lucky please contact Jasmine
at alexisgeorg@live.com.au
Archie --- (posted 26/7/2026) ---
Archie is smart. We let him in and out of the house, he loves playing
soccer and chasing birds in our backyard. He only barks at people he
has never meet before. He gets soo excited if you take him for walk, so he
might pull you, but walking back home he's calm.
Archie is good with other dog as long as they don't
take his ball. He might get excited and bark some with the kids.He is
sensitive about his back being touched. He's a pretty good dog.
We will miss him dearly, but the family is moving to the tropics and
it wouldn't be fair on him if we took him.
If you take care of Archie he will give you soo much love. Very smart
and lovely dog. For more info on Archie please contact Mark at
mark_sime@yahoo.com.au
Loky --- (posted 26/7/2026) ---
Loky is a relatively untrained young BC boy. He has a few behavioual
issues, and his obedience in most things is poor. Loky needs a new home
which will help build his self-confidence and begin again building a
relationship with his owner. He currently lives with a cat, at whom he
barks, but does not chase. He is an indoor dog, used to sleeping
where-ever he wants. Loky is desexed and up to date with vaccinations.
If you want more info on Loky please contact
Anne-Marie at amcrouchman56@gmail.com
Lola --- (posted 26/7/2026) ---
Lola is a female (desexed) border collie, 3 1/2 years old. She is a
classic black and white girl.
She came to me at 2 years of age from a home that unfortunately did
not give her much time or socialise her. It’s been difficult and she
still has some issues that need attention.
Due to personal circumstances ( work and location) I need to find her
a suitable home.
Lola loves playing ball, loves the water and has a cat as her
companion.
But she finds it difficult to be in the company of other dogs (extremely guarded)
and has a tendency to react towards certain people
when walking on lead.
She would be suitable to be an only dog, where she has plenty of room
to run and play. For more info on Lola please contact Jayne at
jcapovil@icloud.com
Oreo --- (posted 28/7/2026) ---
Oreo is a much-loved 5-year-old Border Collie looking for a calm,
experienced home. He is loyal, intelligent and affectionate with the
people he knows and thrives on routine and consistency.
Oreo has anxiety and reactivity, which are managed with daily
medication and previous professional behavioural training. Due to
recent changes in our household, he has regressed and has shown
aggression. For this reason, he would only be suitable for an
experienced, adult-only home.
This has been an incredibly difficult decision for our family, but
with a young child in the home we need to put everyone's safety first.
We believe Oreo deserves the opportunity to thrive in a quieter
environment with someone experienced in managing reactive Border
Collies. For more info on Oreo please contact Hannah at
hannaharojo@gmail.com
Indie --- (posted 30/7/2026) ---
Indie is a loyal, intelligent, obedient and affectionate 4-year-old
Border Collie who forms strong bonds with her people. She loves both
physical exercise and mental enrichment, and thrives with routine and
consistency. She is a sensitive dog who can be anxious in unfamiliar
situations, particularly with new people and other dogs, so she is
looking for a calm, experienced home where she can continue to build
her confidence. She has come a long way with training and is currently
medicated to help with her anxiety. When triggers are removed, she is
a relaxed and loving companion.
Due to changing family circumstances, we have made the heartbreaking
decision to find Indie a home better suited to her needs, to help her
thrive and live an enriched and fulfilling life. While she can warm up
to other dogs with time and repeated exposures, she would be best
suited to a home without other dogs. A home without children (or with
older, dog-savvy children) would best suit Indie. She will thrive with
an owner who is committed to providing her with ongoing exercise,
mental stimulation and consistent support.

Kevin --- (posted 4/8/2026) ---
Kevin is a 7 year old wheaten male. He is a well behaved boy, the
neighbours are surprised to learn he's even here, he only makes a noise
when someone comes to the front door. Unfortunately, we are looking for
a new home for our boy as we have left a DV situation and struggling
to find the time and money to give him all that he deserves. He loves
a cuddle, a ball and a good chew toy, gets along with children and
other animals, hates storms and can sense them coming before there's
any sign of them rolling in. We are located in Lake Macquarie, NSW.
For more info on Kevin please email janaha88@gmail.com
