About Conor
Introducing Conor, a friendly and affectionate pup born on 29 August 2025.
With a mix of Wolfhound, Kelpie, and Border Collie in his bloodline, Conor will be a loyal, energetic and highly intelligent dog, making him an exceptional addition to an active home.
On 24 October, Connor weighed 3.6 kgs. At maturity, we expect him to be a medium-sized dog, definitely more Border Collie or Kelpie size, than Wolfie.
If you're someone who likes walking, hiking or jogging, Conor will have the energy and stamina to join you. Quick to learn and eager to please, he'd be a good candidate for dog sports or simply frisbee at the park. Particularly while he's a pup and young dog, it will be important for him to have plenty of mental and physical stimulation to channel his intellect and energy positively and avoid puppy mischief.
His loyalty to his family will be unwavering, but he will need ongoing socialisation with other dogs and people to be well-rounded. As you can tell from the photos, he's greatly enjoying life in his foster home, where he has children and other dogs to play with.
Secure fencing is essential to keep him safe.
If you have an active lifestyle and are looking for a clever and devoted canine companion, Conor could be the boy for you.
His adoption fee covers the cost of desexing when age appropriate, subject to terms and conditions.
Interested?
The first step is to complete the online application at https://southerndownsark.com.au/apply-to-adopt/ and one of our friendly volunteers will be in touch.
Medical notes
No known pre-existing conditions.
Conor was C3 vaccinated, wormed and microchipped on 24 October. His next C3 Vaccintion is due on 24 November 2025.
He is too young to be desexed and is offered for adoption, subject to a Deferred Desexing contract, which involves the adopter undertaking to have him desexed when age appropriate (9-12 months). Conor's adoption fee includes the cost of desexing, subject to terms and conditions.
