2 1/2 yo male BC

Ben has high drive and would make an excellent agility dog. He is a proud & flamboyent boy. He is good with other dogs and good on the lead. Ben is a black & white pure bred border collie with a handsome, mostly black face. Ben currently greets people by jumping up into their faces. This behaviour should be lessened and replaced with an appropriate greeting in time. Ben has had all his vet work done.

photo currently unavailableSprite and Obi --- (posted 22/2/2008) ---

6 months, male and female black and white BC crosses

Sprite is an energetic, outgoing and intelligent dog. She walks beautifully on lead, she is toilet trained and has lovely house manners. She loves to run and play with other dogs and is well socialised with people. Sprite will excel at dog obedience and would love to participate in dog related sports activities. As a member of a working breed she is best suited to an active home with a family who is looking for intimate and interactive companionship. Sprite will require a patient family to see her through the chewing and digging phases of puppy hood while she develops into a loyal and committed companion. Obi is an active, gentle and affectionate dog. He has a quiet intelligence, which will make him excel at dog obedience school where he will undoubtedly be top of his class. Obi loves playing with other dogs and seeks close companionship from people. He is wonderful on the lead and displays polite house manners. As a member of a working breed Obi is suited to an active family who enjoys walking, jogging and has a genuine love of the outdoors. Obi will require a patient family to see him through the usual chewing and digging phases of puppy hood. The rewards for the right family will be great as Obi will develop into a well balanced and loyal companion. Obi seeks lifelong friendship from a likeminded family. If you would like to meet Obi and his sister Sprite please contact Kate on 0405 237 149.

photo currently unavailableGemma --- (posted 23/4/2008) ---

6 year old female BC

Gemma is a gorgeous (almost) 6 year old girl who is fearful of small children, and so she needs a home where she will not be exposed to them, or where she can be kept safe from interactions if they visit. Like most fearful BCs, she will snap if children push too far. She is lovely with adults. Gemma is an active girl. She likes to run, and she loves water. Chasing the water from a hose is one of her favourite games. She also loves chasing a tennis ball that has been hit a good long way. She is a very intelligent girl with a strong herding instinct. Gemma loves riding in the car, and she also enjoys long walks - the longer the better. Gemma is a pedigree, desexed, black and white girl, and petite for the breed. For more information contact Tom on 02 9487 6022 or 0414 480 375.

6 month old black male BC cross

Jet is extremely friendly and always wants to do what is right. He is perfect on the lead. He stays at your left knee and doesn't pull at all - he's a natural.

He just loves a cuddle and chasing balls. He'll make the perfect companion and family dog. Being an active, working breed, Jet could be a future dog sports candidate.

photo currently unavailableTim Tim --- (posted 4/7/2008) ---

3 year old black and white BC boy

Tim Tim's owners have to move to a rental, and haven't been able to find one that will take pets. They thought that they had found him a good new home, but that person has change their mind at the last minute, so things are urgent for Tim Tim. He is a lovely, friendly boy, a little boisterous, but then 3 years old is still a puppy for a male BC :) Tim Tim has a full coat and is desexed with all his vet work done. He is great with children and also with other dogs. He has no experience with cats. Tim Tim is thunderphobic, but not scared of fireworks. His recall offlead, ouside the yard, still needs some work.

photo currently unavailableDagwood --- (posted 4/7/2008) ---

7 year old attractive black and white BC boy

Dagwood has been surrendered to the pound by his owner after he was collected by the council ranger. Dagwood had gotten out of his yard (through a gap in the fence) and had an altercation with another dog. He is a very pretty boy, and has been assessed by an ACT rescue group as a good rehoming candidate. Some further assessment is to be done on Dagwood. He is in a foster home now, and although not quite ready to be rehomed yet, may be available soon. He is a very sweet, soft boy who has had some hard times. He was suspected of having issues with small white fluffies, but this is to be further assessed. For more information on Dagwood please contact Kathleen on 0418 481306 or email aussikate@hotmail.com

 

photo currently unavailable3 sad dogs --- (posted 11/7/2008) ---

Three dispossessed dogs

Three sad dogs have lost their owner - he has passed on. They are in kennelling and hoping for a new home. They do not all have to be rehomed together, but two of them would seem to prefer it. Glenda is a female black/white approx 8 years, neutered, lounge lizard, currently overweight. Glenda would make a great pet for somebody who is close to retirement. She has never been around children. Glenda has a bit of a sensitive tummy. Her vacs are all up to date. Wade is black/white male 2 years, neutered and purebred. Wade would settle into a family, he doesn't have a huge coat but like Glenda he too is overweight. Wade has had no contact with kids. Wade would make a good agility dog. Boy, is not a BC, he's a Cairn terrier, neutered around 4-5 years. He gets on well with Glenda and it would be really good to rehome them together, although not essential. Boy cannot be relocated to an environment with small animals such as cats or chickens. He is a well behaved boy. For more information on these three call Chris on 02 48373027. there is an answering machine if the phone isn't answered immediately.

2 yo male BC

Bub is a two year old Border Collie, desexed and microchipped. He plays quite happily with a five year old and fourteen year old child. He also gets along well with the small dog in the household. He is a very affectionate boy and he knows basic commands. Bub was apparently being bullied by other dogs in his previous home. For more information contact Bub's carers on 0247396346 or 0400403393.

photo currently unavailableOska --- (posted 22/7/2008) ---

2 yo male BC cross

Oska is a 2yr old Border Collie X who was rescued from the pound at roughly 12 weeks old. He is black and white and of medium size. He is adorable and a real little smooch!! He can sit, drop, wait for his food, stay (when he wants to!) and come to his name and shake hands. Being a BC he is loaded with energy but I feel confident walking him off lead anywhere. Oska is very sociable and loves playing with other dogs. He has been best mates with the staffy in his household. Oska is also used to being in a household with a small baby. Oska loves chasing a ball - that is his main form of exercise. He has been around horses and other stock and has shown no inclination to chase them, although they do interest him. Oska would do well in a single dog household with lots of attention, or with a doggy buddy as well. He is used to sleeping indoors, and is desexed, microchipped, vaccinated etc. Sadly, Oska's owner has had to move from a property to a townhouse, and it is no place for a 2 yo BC. For more information contact Rebekkah on 0411279054 or (02) 62990595

photo currently unavailableJessi --- (posted 24/7/2008) ---

4 year old female BC Lab cross

Jessi would make a great pet in a home where she was the only dog. It is her issues with other dogs that have her looking for a new home. She loves fetching balls in the park, is good with kids & knows how to sit, heel, drop & come when called. Jessi has started training for obedience trials and she is doing very well at this. She would probably be great at flyball too. Jessi is a pretty, very nicely proportioned girl with classic BC markings and a short coat. She is desexed, & also fully vaccinated. For more information contact her owners on 4329 2414

photo currently unavailablePete --- (posted 26/7/2008) ---

2 year old male BC

Pete's greatest love in life is to run! He would best suit a home on acreage or in a farm environment. He has been tried already as a worker but wasn't interested, so will be re - homed as a pet only. He adores the company of other dogs and will happily play with other dogs big and small. He is not fond of cats and needs to go to a home without cats. He walks well on lead and sits beautifully in the car. He is not destructive and has no neurotic behaviours. He is an absolute pleasure to have around and will make a great companion for someone on the land. Pete is desexed etc. For more information contact: Anita 0413488353

photo currently unavailableLucy --- (posted 5/8/2008) ---

2 year old mostly white female BC lab cross

Lucy is nearing 2 years old. She is a sweetheart, mostly white with a black patch on one eye. She is a bit smaller than a lab would normally be and she has an easy-care short coat. She is a very loyal dog, she is ok outside alone, will sleep outside but loves the warmth of inside at times and is always on her best behaviour if let inside. She will bark from time to time, probably less than most labradors which helps with neighbours that dislike continual barking. She loves walks and requires them daily. Lucy is excellent on the lead and has had basic training. She'll play fetch all day if she could, she loves the beach and would make an excellent addition to any family. Ideally you will have a good size backyard, but high fencing is not an issue, she doesn't jump fences. She just needs some space to run and play fetch with her new owners. If you think you have the dedication and love required to adopt my girl, please send me an email and I will be in touch. I am located in Wollongong. bjwebster_82@hotmail.com

photo currently unavailableMaddox --- (posted 18/8/2008) ---

not quite 2 year old red and white male BC

Maddox (Maddy) is a friendly and sweet natured boy who has been rescued after being unwanted by his original owner. His carers have now got ownership, so they can choose the best right home for Maddy. He is healthy and desexed. Being a young BC he is going to need ongoing training and management, including regular exercise and mental stimulation. Anything less will be asking him to create amusements of his own, which no-one else will find amusing (same as any young BC). For more information email Diane at diane.phuong@gmail.com
