Portia

This gorgeous little pup is Portia, a Staffy x Border Collie born 27 Sept 2023 as part of the Car litter. Mum (tan) and Dad (brown and white) are pictured above.

Though not born in our care, Portia and her litter mates are received all the nurturing and attention one could hope for, and are growing into happy, playful, well-rounded pups.

As you can see from the photos, Portia is thriving! She is an inquisitive, affectionate and contented girl, hitting all her developmental milestones despairing being the runt of her litter, and proving to be a delight in every way. Portia and her siblings are well socialised and used to the company of humans of all ages.

Portia will grow into a medium sized dog and given her breeding, will require plenty of opportunities for enrichment and space to play.

Secure fencing is a must as always, and having a companion around for most of the day will be highly regarded.

If you are interested in meeting this lovely pup and can offer her a suitable, safe and loving forever home, PLEASE COMPLETE THE ONLINE ADOPTION APPLICATION at https://southerndownsark.com.au/apply-to-adopt/ and one of our volunteers will be in touch.

Portia is part way through her course of vaccinations and is microchipped. She is also flea and worm-treated. A deferred desexing bond of $200 will be required at point of adoption, to be reimbursed upon proof of desexing when age-appropriate .
