Happy Paws Haven (Eatonsville, NSW)
 
Breed: Border Collie Cross
Gender: Female
Name: "Caylee"
Age: 8 months
Desexed: YES
Shelter Notes: Caylee is a lovely girl who was surrendered due to her owner not having enough time for her. She loves to please, would be great on a property where she has room to run but at the same time be part of the family. She would be good at agility, obedience and herding trials. She is a little shy at first but when the others say hello she does too. She loves attention and cuddles, gets on well with other dogs, she takes the submissive role. She is fine with kids, very playful with plenty of energy but not over the top. Would not suit town unless you are home a lot and able to exercise her at least twice a day!

Solar Lodge Kennels Shelter (Berkshire Park, NSW)
 
Breed: Border Collie Cross
Gender: Female & Male
Name: "Zoe" & "Zac"
Age: 18 months
Desexed: YES
Shelter Notes: Zoe and Zac are brother and sister and both are a beautiful pair of gentle souls. When they first arrived, it was clear that both dogs had had little interaction with people. Over the time they have been here, both dogs have blossomed and where they once sought to stay as far away from people as possible (although always gentle, just scared), they now actively seek out attention. They love cuddles and pats but they are always gentle, polite and very mindful of trying to do the right thing. Zoe and Zac are wonderful to watch as they play gently together. Both dogs love to play with other well mannered dogs too. Zoe is on the small size for a Border Collie and would be below the knee in height. Zac is slightly taller than his sister and he is about normal BC height.

I'm a Golden Oldie
Breed: Border Collie
Gender: Female
Name: "Ebby"
Age: 10 years
Desexed: YES
Shelter Notes: Beautiful Ebby has had such an awful existence for virtually her whole ten years, but her luck began to change when she was confiscated by rangers and taken to the pound. For the first 10 years of her life she was made to live under a house on her own. She was riddled with fleas, malnourished, had badly infected eyes and fly-bitten ears. The muscles in her rear legs and rear end had atrophied and she had a calloused "baboon" type bottom caused from years of sitting on hard surfaces. She also had a hunched back and had difficulty controlling her rear end when she walked - almost as though she had been dragging herself around by her muscled front end for some time. When she arrived at the pound, the carers worked wonders and controlled Ebby's fleas, her infection and she gained weight. Some physical scars still remained for Ebby but they had started to repair. As at August 2010, with good food, diligence in her care from shelter staff and some long forgotten TLC, little Ebby has made a remarkable recovery. The atrophied muscles in her rear-end have developed and her calloused bottom has hair growing on one side. The transformation from an odd-gaited girl who had so little ability to walk properly into a girl who has virtually normal muscle tone and movement has been amazing. She continues to improve with exercise and she now runs and jumps, something she was unable to do when she first arrived at the shelter. Ebby is such a determined little girl who is thoroughly enjoying exploring the world and being able to move around and enjoy life generally. She still has arthritis but this is comfortably addressed with daily medication that she will need to take for the rest of her life. Ebby is a gentle, sensible little soul who would make a loyal companion and she would love to receive the cuddles and companionship she has been missed out on in her first 10 years.

I'm a Golden Oldie
Breed: Border Collie Cross
Gender: Female
Name: "Emily"
Age: 8 years
Desexed: YES
Shelter Notes: Emily is such a gentle soul. Very sweet and eager to please and she is very affectionate. She has a lovely short, easy care coat with chocolate brown highlights. Emily is a quiet girl who is not boisterous or excited but is calm and steady. She's slightly taller than the average BC, is in good physical condition and she would do well with a daily walk, but she would also enjoy relaxing quietly with her family. Emily is a lovely natured and gentle girl who would make a great companion in any home.

Sunshine Coast Animal Refuge (Tanawha, Qld)
   

Breed: Border Collie Cross
Gender: Male
Name: "Charlie"
Age: 3 years
Desexed: YES
Shelter Notes: Charlie is a very friendly boy. To date he has not been well socialised with other dogs, but he's willing to learn and will learn quickly. We are unsure how Charlie is with cats/chooks/livestock at this stage. He will need a acreage home with active owners. He would not be suitable for homes with young children as he will herd them and nip at heels.

Breed: Border Collie Cross
Gender: Male
Name: "Jake"
Age: 12 months
Desexed: YES
Shelter Notes: Jake is friendly and outgoing and loves life. He has a lovely nature and seems okay with other dogs. He does need to have a home with a bit of land and room to move as he's an energetic boy. Must be fenced to keep him safe and secure. Jake's perfect home would be with an energetic family who will give me all the love and attention needed. Jake will fit into most homes easily.
