About Possum
Possum is a 1 year old Border Collie X. We are unsure what she’s crossed with – however it is only something small. Her surrender notes from her original owner stated that she is a Border Collie X Cavalier King Charles.
Possum is only 12kgs and not much bigger than a lap dog.
Possum and her brother Buster were surrendered to a local pound by the woman that bred them due to having issues with having too many dogs on her property. They were very scared in the pound environment, so Farmdogz Rescue was contacted to ask if we could take them on, hoping they’d be better in a foster home environment. Sure enough, they immediately came out of their shells and thrived.
They are gorgeous little pups who are very sweet and playful. In their time in foster care, they have played with a number of different dogs and got on with everyone.
Possum hadn’t had much formal obedience training prior to her surrender so she has had that started in her foster home and is picking up things very quickly.
She grew up with small farm animals (goats, chickens etc) along with cats, dogs and guinea pigs. She loves to play with other friendly dogs and is very cuddly with people. She is a confident, happy-go-lucky little lady, who we’d love to find a home for quickly so as to not bond too quickly with her foster family before being uprooted once more.
Possum has been vet checked, microchipped, vaccinated and desexed and is up to date with fleaing and worming.
If you would like to learn more about Possum or would like to apply to adopt her, fill out an adoption form and we will be in contact shortly.

3. If your are successful, one of our volunteers will contact you to organise a meet and greet at your home and conduct a yard check at the same time.

During the 2 week trial period, should you decide that this dog is not for you, you are welcome to return the dog (the more notice the better, to ensure we have a foster carer available) and your payment will be retunded to you in full, within 3 business days of the return of the dog.
**PLEASE NOTE: WE ASK THAT YOU PLEASE DO NOT CONTACT US BEFORE FILLING IN OUR ONLINE ADOPTION FORM**.
We are a volunteer run organisation, who have their own jobs during the day, we don't have someone manning our phones 24/7, therefore cannot respond to all inquiries immediately. The fastest way to have your questions answered is to include it in the application form. This will speed up your application with us, and help us communicate with you faster.
Please be patient with us, as the unpredictable nature of rescue may prevent us from clearing all enquiries regularly.
