About Duke
Duke is a 6-7 year old Border collie, He has been a working dog but the owners decided he might be losing his spring and left him in a pound
We have estimated his age at around six + as he wasnt chipped. He is very accepting of dogs and being a working breed , is intelligent and good natured.
He has never lived inside but he would like to try that in his new home
Duke is respectful of fencing, other dogs, and stock. He seems fine with cats
He is recently desexed and vaccinated and although a little strong on a lead , walks well and is well behaved
Duke is not overly large weighing in around 18-20 kilos He has a medium length border collie coat that requires a good brush . Duke has been wormed and treated for fleas and health checked
The home for Duke would be with a family used to working breeds and have a moderately active lifestyle. Being 6/7 he is not overly energetic but still needs an active life and to be included in the family activities. He would greatly appreciate a slightly easier life than the one he had where we assume he spent his days working hard
Duke is an appreciate , friendly very sweet dog that deserves spoiling for the next chapter in his life. He is obedient and absolutely no trouble . He is so good with other dogs that our preference would be for him to go to a home with another female dog for company
Duke is in foster care in Hinton near Maitland and an application form link is in the adoption details section and can be adopted as soon as he has recovered from his desexing
Adoption details
IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO APPLY PLEASE FILL OUT THE ADOPTION FORM VIA THIS LINK: https://bit.ly/35pENH8
We require an initial application and then if a dog seems a match we can arrange a meet and greet at a local park or the foster carers home. If the meet is successful we then arrange a yard check and if that is satisfactory we require full payment on picking up the dog.
We then give a 2 week trial and if in that time it is not working we will refund all but $50 for admin costs. We also require that the adopter returns our dogs back to us at any time in its lifetime (without a refund) for us to rehome.
