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

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

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

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. For more info, contact seangtm@outlook.com

Tucker and Ruthie --- (posted 8/9/2026) ---

Meet Ruthie and Tucker - a very special bonded pair. Ruthie and Tucker are a beautiful pair of Border Collies who are looking for a forever home together. And together really is the important part - these two absolutely adore each other. Ruthie is an elegant 11-year-old lady who loves nothing more than curling up on the couch while you read a book. Tucker, 7, is always up for an adventure. He loves going for walks, chasing a ball and getting out and about. When the opportunity for a walk arises, they are both ready to go, and they happily share the leading of the pack! Despite enjoying their walks and having plenty of energy when they're outside, both dogs are remarkably calm in the house. Once they've had their exercise, they are very happy to settle down for a nap. They have settled into our home remarkably quickly and have been calm, affectionate and well behaved from the day they arrived. As long as they're next to each other, they're very happy. They are both huge fans of people. They love cuddles, tummy rubs and having their ears scratched, and they have decided that they are both lap dogs! They will happily climb onto a lap for some affection, but they also respond very well when given boundaries. They're friendly and welcoming when visitors arrive and are great with children. They have also been wonderful with our two cats. Their bond is particularly special. When they walk together, they are shoulder-to-shoulder, sharing the smells and exploring everything together. At night they cuddle up together to sleep. They clearly take great comfort and pleasure in each other's company, and we feel very strongly that they need to be adopted together. They are well trained, walk well on a lead (although they like to move at a good pace!), and enjoy travelling in the car. They are comfortable being handled, washed and brushed, and both enjoy the attention. Ruthie particularly enjoys being brushed, although she does have some dander. They are happy spending time alone together and have managed very well when we've been away from them. They do enjoy being near their people, though, and would love a home where they can be part of family life. They currently have two walks a day and happily run and play together in our fully fenced backyard. A home with a good-sized, secure yard and, ideally, some additional land would be wonderful for them. Both dogs are healthy, vaccinated and microchipped. Tucker is being organised for desexing. Ruthie is currently undesexed. Their previous owner recently moved into a nursing home, but Tucker and Ruthie have been well loved and cared for throughout their lives. We are temporarily fostering them while their family looks for a loving forever home where they can stay together. What we're looking for is someone who will fall in love with these two and give them the rest of their lives together. For more info on the pair please contact Michael at mikeod4968@gmail.com

Biscuit --- (posted 8/9/2026) ---

Biscuit is a 6 month old, toilet-trained and vaccinated pup who loves children and playing. Biscuit needs a home which has time to spend on his development, through his adolescent years.

Obi --- (posted 29/9/2026) ---

Obi is a three-year-old male Border Collie with a smooth coat and blue eyes. He is microchipped, vaccinated and not neutered. He has been trained as a family dog and is house-trained. He has primarily lived indoors in an apartment in Sydney. He is affectionate, even-tempered and smart, and loves playing fetch outdoors. He's well trained to play at the park with other dogs (though is much more focused on the ball when playing fetch). He does not like if other dogs are agressive, and it will make him defensive. He is okay with cars and trucks, as long as they aren't too close to him. Motorbikes, e-bikes, and ringing traffic lights are especially difficult for him to be nearby, so make sure to avoid them where possible. For more info on Obi please contact Gerry at gerrylu2122@gmail.com

Bubbly --- (posted 29/9/2026) ---

Bubbly is a beautiful 5-year-old female Border Collie with a very sweet, affectionate and loyal personality. She is gentle, intelligent and very responsive to people, and has never hurt anyone. She is very good around children and other dogs, and loves attention, being close to her person and being included in daily life. She is toilet trained and understands many everyday commands, including sit, come, go and go outside. She loves exercise and especially swimming, and is a very strong swimmer. She would be happiest with someone who has time to give her regular exercise, attention, affection and companionship. Bubbly has a skin allergy that is well managed with daily medication. Other than her allergy, she has no other known health issues. Due to changes in my personal living circumstances, I can no longer give her the time and space she deserves. She is very loved, so finding her the right home with someone who will care for her properly is extremely important to me. For more info on Bubbly please contact Reyhaneh at ray.rabiiii@gmail.com
