Introducing the irresistibly stunning Angel – a 6.5 year old blonde border collie x . Angel is quite simply an angel which is where she got her name. She loves meeting new people and other dogs – her temperament and behaviour match her stunning good looks.

Angel is good with all dogs she is in care with and happily meets new canine friends - she always has a smile on her face and is so easy going. She likes kids and people of all ages – she will happily amble over to say hi to anyone. She enjoys talking to you and will give you a bark to remind you it's her turn for pats .

Angel is on the large side of medium, and she appears even larger due to her very long and thick hair. Her hair is golden and thick like a malamutes and will require lots of brushing – at least a few hours each week to keep her looking beautiful and matt free. If you have fur allergies or don’t like fur on your furniture then Angel is not the gal for you as she comes with a lot of hair!!

Angel would love a family where she is allowed to come inside as much as she pleases (hair tumble weeds and all!). She is very people focused so loves to be where you are - even if that means she is just chilling out near you. She’s not a high energy girl like many border collies however she does love walking – she would love a home where her family will take her walking every day. She is very strong on lead – she doesn’t need a huge daily walk however she loves a good sniff and will drag you along at her own speed! She will require a family who can provide her further lead training - considering she is strong on lead she is best suited to being walked by an adult or older teenagers. She responds well to treats so she is easy to train.

Angel would enjoy the company of another dog. She would suit many home situations from couples, a single person , someone who could take her to work, a semi retired couple or families with teenagers who will play with her and include her in family outings. She wouldn’t suit being left at home all day on her own as she loves people so much. She has lived with cats however she likes to chase so no cats or pocket pets please. She loves squeaky toys - she gathers them all around herself like a bower bird.

Angel will provide years of love and loyalty to the lucky family who adopts and commits to her.
