About Rowdy
Do you:
Have acreage where this sweet boy can run
Have an energetic, desexed companion of similar breed that Rowdy can share his days with
Have knowledge of high energy working breeds?
Rowdy is a country kid who will not be happy living a 'suburban lifestyle'.
A home where Rowdy will be living in a backyard OR as an 'only dog' will not be considered as they are not situations that Rowdy is suited to.
To avoid disappointment, please don't enquire if this is the home you have to offer.
We will not compromise on these requirements for Rowdy.
Introducing Rowdy, an energetic, intelligent and adventurous little pup.
Rowdy is quite the intelligent kelpie and learns new commands very quickly - with the basics already under his belt (sit, recall, place and kennel) as well as some very impressive leash manners.
Being a kelpie, Rowdy will need a home where he will be offered A LOT of mental and physical stimulation to prevent him from becoming bored. We would prefer Rowdy be offered a home on acreage, with a family who understands and has experience with working breeds, as well as an equally active desexed, adult dog to learn from and keep him entertained.
Obedience classes will be a must for Rowdy and his siblings. They are very smart and professional training will not only help them understand what is expected from them, it will also help with continued socialisation, distraction training and aid in developing a trusting bond with their new family.
Rowdy is well socialised and is quite respectful of each dog's different boundaries, and loves to have a good run around and wrestle with the more playful dogs in his foster home.
He has met children and is being taught to remain calm (being a pup, he sometimes finds this difficult), however may be a little too boisterous for young children.
While these pups have been with us, they have enjoyed an indoor/outdoor lifestyle and have been offered a warm bed inside to help them feel safe and secure. Through crate training, Rowdy's toilet training is coming along nicely.
He is crate trained and is happy to sleep in his bed overnight.
***Rowdy has not been tested with cats or other small animals so supervision would be required. He has met sheep and shows a playful, puppy-like interest but has no desire to work.
If you believe you may have the perfect home for Rowdy, we would love to hear from you!
Rowdy is located in Kurunjang.

Adoption details
If you think one of our animals would be a good match for your home please email us and we will be in touch shortly after. We all work fulltime, have families and other commitments so your patience is appreciated.
We do require any other dogs in your home meeting our foster animal before they head home with you. This enables us to assess their compatibility and helps prevent them being returned and creating more confusion/insecurities for the foster animal.
All our animals are available for a two week trial with full refund. They are also covered by a lifetime return policy. If you ever find yourself unable to care for or keep your pet please contact us and they will come back into our care, this is a condition of our Adoptions.
