About Jersey - 4 Year Old Border Collie
🐾 Meet Jersey: Professional People Greeter 🐾
Jersey is a gorgeous Border Collie with one very important message for everyone he meets:HELLO. I LOVE YOU. PLEASE NOTICE ME!
This handsome boy is incredibly friendly, loves his humans and is always very happy to make a new friend. He’s affectionate, enthusiastic and brings plenty of that wonderful Border Collie energy to everything he does.
And when we say energy, we mean energy. Jersey is a very active boy who will be looking for a home that can keep up with him, keep his clever brain busy and give him plenty of opportunities to get out and about.
In true Border Collie fashion, Jersey also loves being with his people. He won’t suit a home where he’s left alone for long days on a regular basis, so he needs a family where someone is home more often than not and can make him a real part of their day-to-day life.
His excitement occasionally gets the better of him, and Jersey hasn’t quite mastered the concept that four paws are technically meant to stay on the floor. Because of his enthusiastic jumping, he’s best suited to a home with kids aged 8+ who will be comfortable with his enthusiasm.
When it comes to canine housemates, Jersey would much prefer to have his humans all to himself and needs to be the only dog in the home.
And with all that Border Collie energy, this boy needs a safe and secure place to call home, so secure 1.8m fencing is a must.
