About Toohey and Tonic
Calling Kelpie lovers!!
This pair of lovely Kelpie girls were picked up by the Ranger as they played near the road. They are typical young Kelpies, as bright as buttons.
It seems as though they’d lived their lives thus far in a cage - the absolute look of wonder on their faces when they ran on grass for the first time, playfully biting at it, was joyful to watch as was the running, running, the endless running and chasing each other till they expended their energy.
They are loyal, friendly little girls. Toohey has the black lead, while Tonic has the blue.
From having not the foggiest notion what a leash was for, to being delightful girls on leash - Toohey prefers to walk by my side, while Tonic likes to walk at my heels, all this in a day or two. I take them for their walks together and so feather light on the leash is Tonic that I have to keep glancing over my shoulder to see if she hasn’t slipped her leash.
Their other basic manners are coming along beautifully also.
To be fair to Toohey and Tonic, they will need a home with active families. They won’t suit apartment living nor will a daily walk around the block be sufficient for their energy levels. They will need the opportunity for lots of exercise and stimulation. A home near the beach, river, lake or on acreage - perhaps a home with another active young dog would be ideal.
These girls are in care with me at Moree, NSW. In these Covid times, commercial transportation is virtually non existent, so please don’t apply unless you are prepared to drive to Moree to collect them. To illustrate where we are located, Moree is a 7 hour drive from Sydney.
