Bondi --- (posted 4/6/2019) ---
Bondi's family have had changes in circumstances which have made his
remaining with them an impossible option. They are very sad, and only
the best home will do for this boy.
Bondi is an anxious boy and he needs an experienced BC home which
understands that not all BCs welcome people or dogs that they don't
know, first up. An ongoing program of socialisation with positive
reinforcement is needed. Bondi is a very soft and sensitive boy. He
can herd a rabbit back into its pen without touching it.... but
something new and strange might worry him. Bondi has a strong herding
instinct, (although gentle) and he loves a snuggle and a game of fetch
(ball or frisbee). Bondi is used to being mostly outdoors, but enjoys
sleeping inside. Cuddling on the couch would be his preference.
Bondi would not be suitable for a home with small children, he is not
an escape artist, and he does want a BC experienced home. For more
info please contact Karen on 0411 461 395 or Brendan on 0405 641 756
Darby --- (posted 20/7/2019) ---
Darby is a 6 year old, desexed wheaten border collie. He wants to be a
lap dog, and is extremely cuddly, loyal and loving. He is currently
living with two young children, and he obeys them and loves to have
them climb all over him and cuddle him. He also lives with two cats
and an older kelpie. He will chase the cats out of the yard and has
started to get rough with the kelpie as she has aged; we think this is
due to jealousy. She has been hurt by him, and this is why we are
sadly looking at rehoming him.
He would make an awful working dog, and would be suited to a home that
has no other pets, and with a family that would cuddle him and play
with him daily. He loves to go for walks and runs. We love him
dearly but he is not getting the love and attention he needs and
deserves, and we want him to have a happy life, rather than just a life.
He is not good with other dogs or cats, and will need a strong owner
that can manage him when he is out for walks. He will bark and pull
at other dogs he sees out. He is built like a tank. His attitude to
other dogs and to cats is his only fault, because he really has a huge
heart full of love for his people.
If you would be interested in Darby, I can be contacted on 0414 414
637. We are not in a rush to rehome him; we want him to go to the
right family. We are located on the Gold Coast. Emily.
Molly --- (posted 31/7/2019) ---
Molly is an absolutely beautiful BC girl who is obedient unless
distracted and who loves her people. Molly is very reactive to other
dogs, and may go out of her way to see another dog off, even it it is
minding it's own business. Smaller dogs in particular are an issue.
Molly needs a home which wants to make her
part of the family, with a secure yard and no other pets. Experience
with a reactive BC would be desirable. Molly may be able to be helped
to be less worried by other dogs, but she will not be able to be
taken to the off-lead dog park or let run loose on the beach. For
more info on Molly please contact John at john_borrow@yahoo.com
Phoebe --- (posted 10/9/2019) ---
Phoebe is a middle-age girl who is generally placid, and loves adults, but
isn't comfortable with youngsters. She is a very pretty BC who looks a
bit like she might also have some blue cattle dog in her lines
making her black with blue merle markings and a medium
coat. Phoebe's
home has had a change of family members and Phoebe is not comfortable,
and this isn't going to change. A home that can manage a mature girl
who doesn't welcome little children is sought. (note that there has
been no aggression, just discomfort) Phoebe is very active
and would love a new home that was happy with her temperament as it is
(no young children). For more info on Phoebe please contact Sam on
0474780337
Millie --- (posted 18/9/2019) ---
Millie is a very lovely petite red and white girl who loves fetch and
playing with a ball. Millie is not comfortable with small people, and
the addition of children into her home has made her uncomfortable. A
home that does not expect routine interaction with small children is
sought for Millie. Millie loves other dogs and is used to living with
another BC. She is very social and loves walks and games. Although
used to being an outdoor dog, Millie loves to come inside,
especially during storms or fireworks. Millie is
desexed and vaccinated. For more info on this girl please contact
Alana or Robert at alana.michelle.kelley@gmail.com or
robert81risteski@gmail.com
Sparrow --- (posted 27/9/2019) ---
Sparrow is a lovely classic BC boy who has no vices. His family's
circumstances are about to change and they realise it will be best to
find Sparrow a new home. Sparrow is very friendly, love people and
others dogs and loves to play - swimming and toys! In spite of his
playfulness, he can be a very mature boy, who listens to you and
follows instructions. If you wanted to bring a non-puppy BC into your
family, Sparrow sounds like a good prospect. For more information
plase contact Sharon at sharonsharifi@gmail.com
Stella --- (posted 27/9/2019) ---
Stella is a lovely but anxious BC kelpie cross. She is a typical
anxious girl, and worries about people and things that she doesn't
know. She is particular worried by small people, and so a family with
no small children, who are prepared to manage an anxious girl is
sought. Stella loves walks, and activity, and of course, the people
she knows. A new home, or a foster home is sought. For more
information please contact Louisa at louisa.horne@outlook.com
