About Silo
Introducing Silo, an utterly lovable 2-and-a-half-year-old male Kelpie. This charmer is great with everyone, displaying his strong bond with humans and dogs alike, although he tends towards the company of more easygoing canine companions.
Silo is a truly loving dog who relishes cuddles and playtime in equal measures. He particularly enjoys a fun game of chasey and, true to his Kelpie roots, has a natural flare for herding. Silo's energy levels can hit the ceiling and back, which comes with his breed and youthful age. To keep his vivacious spirits in good balance, Silo requires a home where activity is not scarce.
This beautiful young Kelpie is also good with kids; while his exuberance occasionally results in him being a little jumpy, supervision can easily remedy this trait. Silo's ideal family would provide plenty of exercise, love, and patience as he continues to grow and learn good manners.
If you're looking for a fun, energetic, loveable companion who will remain faithfully by your side, Silo could be the ideal addition to your home. With a heart as big as his energy, Silo is ready to jump into life with a loving new family.

Adoption details
We are not open to walk ins, appointments by booking only. All households members must be present before we can adopt an animal out.
As our goal is to adopt animals out from the shelter into loving homes as fast as possible, multiple bookings may be made for the same animal.
We are not able to hold any animals for any reason.
As such, there is a possibility that the animal you may have found a forever home before your appointment. If this is the case we will inform you by phone call as soon as possible.
