About Chief
Meet Chief, a vibrant and spirited 1-year-old Kelpie x Border Collie mix who embodies the best traits of his breeds. Chief is not just incredibly smart, but he’s also full of boundless energy and an abundance of love to share. He absolutely thrives during playtime, whether it’s engaging in games in the yard or accompanying you on walks and runs. His zest for life and playful nature make him an exceptional companion for anyone who enjoys an active lifestyle.
Anyone thinking of adopting Chief should be an enthusiastic person with a suitable space for him to explore and expend his energy. A large yard would be ideal for Chief to roam and play to his heart's content. Despite his high energy levels, Chief has a gentle and affectionate side that makes him a fantastic candidate for living with other dogs and homes with children. His friendly demeanour and playful habits will keep everyone entertained and create a joyful home environment.
In addition to his lively personality, Chief offers a unique charm that extends to his name. Imagine greeting him every day with a "How's it going, Chief?" and receiving an enthusiastic wag of the tail in return. This clever and lovable dog is ready to bring happiness and companionship to any household.

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.
