Doc

Meet Doc, a laid-back Kelpie with a gentle soul and a heart full of affection.

Doc isn't your typical high energy kelpie as he prefers leisurely lounging and relaxed walks, making him the ideal companion for anyone who appreciates tranquility and companionship. His calm demeanor is accentuated by his adaptability, allowing him to thrive in various living situations. Whether it's a bustling family with children and a big, easy-going doggie friend, or maybe a tradie who can take him to work, Doc can find happiness in different settings.

Doc will benefit from someone home most of the time or someone prepared to put in the time to get him used to being home alone as he has not been left alone much since being in foster care.

Doc is not just easygoing; he's also intelligent and agile, showing incredible potential for those who wish to challenge his mind. While he loves a good cuddle, he's also a keen listener and an obedient companion, mastering commands like "leave it" and "come" with ease. He is becoming more relaxed with consistent encouragement, even in busier environments where he initially might be a little anxious. You'll find him particularly excited during long walks, showcasing his joy with playful leaps and spins.

Doc is also great with kids and has shown incredible promise around other dogs, forming bonds and enjoying their company without a hint of aggression towards wild birds or chickens. While he is making progress with cats, he can get a bit carried away with excitement as he thinks they're up for playtime. His playful loyalty shines through in his off-leash behavior, as he keeps a reassuring eye on his human companion, staying close but enjoying his freedom.

One of Doc's charming quirks is his preference for meals in clear plastic containers rather than traditional bowls. Doc happliy sleeps contentedly beside your bed at night.

Doc's combination of laid-back charm and potential for mental engagement makes him less demanding yet incredibly loving. He's looking for a family or individual to create paw-sitive relationships with. If you're ready to offer him a peaceful place to relax, take serene walks, and enjoy loyal companionship, Doc could be the perfect addition to your life.
