Socksie

Meet this sweet fellow, Socksie. He is a 1 year old kelpie x border collie mix who has found himself after a family to call his very own.

You can usually find Socksie trailing behind you at your feet, playing with his toys or having a nap. While his most favourite activity is hanging out with his humans, he’s also happy to hang out by himself or with his foster siblings while you’re at work as long as his needs are met.

Socksie is a food enthusiast, making training a breeze. While in care he’s been working on his basic commands such as sit, drop, wait and come. He’s also learning some fun ones as well, such as spin and rollover. Socksie has become fond of his crate, he sleeps peacefully overnight and will often put himself in there for some quiet time. He still can be skeptical of the big wide world so he needs some extra encouragement on walks. He would love a family that can continue his training and confidence building to keep his mind sharp.

He hasn’t been tested around cats but is polite around other dogs and gets along with his foster siblings of all sizes. He’s a gentle boy who’s not a jumper for attention so he’ll suit a family either with or without kids.

Socksie is looking for a family that has patience and understands he can still be shy in new situations with new people. If you can give him this you’ll be matched with unconditional love, loyalty and plenty of laughs. If he sounds like your type of guy, please reach out!

Socksie is located in NSW.
