Polly

If you are looking for a pet to love and enjoy now, without all the hard work that comes with a puppy, then Polly is your girl!

Polly has the sweetest nature and has perfected the ‘puppy dog eyes’ to simply melt your heart. Polly still loves to play and run around, but won’t need as much exercise as her younger kelpie counterparts. She is very happy to lay at your feet and just follow you around. She goes to work on site with her foster dad occasionally and is the perfect tradie dog, happy to chill out and watch everyone else do the hard work.

Polly LOVES little kids and is perfect with them. She is currently in care with a 1 year old and 4 year old. She loves running around with them and knows not to jump up. Overall she is a very polite and gentle dog. Her ideal night would be sitting on her bed at your feet in front of the fire, watching a movie, or maybe a slow walk along the beach in summer.

Polly gets along really well with other dogs both big and small, and is currently in care with 3 others. She would be fine with or without another dog. Polly is a bit too interested in chasing cats so is not suited to a home with them.

Polly has had a tough life. She’s had many litters of puppies which her body still wears the reminder of, and once she was past her puppy making duties, she was dumped at a rural pound. The pound were told she is 8 yrs old, however our vet has suggested she is probably closer to 10 years old. Don't let this scare you though; Polly has been given a thorough check over by our vets and is in very good health with plenty of years left in her.

Polly’s ideal home would be with retirees, someone she can go to work with, or who works from home. She loves to be with her people and is a seriously loyal dog.
