About King
Introducing KING, one of 10 absolutely adorable Border Collie mix puppies from the Island Litter.
They were born on 19 April 2022 to their lovely mum, Morgan, a young tan and white, short-haired border collie mix with amber eyes. Morgan's photo forms part of King's profile. We think dad was a border collie/kelpie mix.
King starts off a little shy in a new environment, but once he settles in, he becomes a confident little man. He has lots of energy to play and run, and loves lots of attention. He and his brothers have a new-found love of balls and funny sounding toys, and will play and jump around with joy until every ounce of energy is gone and they fall into a puddle of sleepy puppy cuteness.
Border Collies can make great family pets, loyal companions and excellent watchdogs. They are clever, even-tempered and eager to please, making them a good choice for a family pet. They get along well with children and other pets, particularly when introduced from an early age.
The secret to bringing the best out in a border collie is to keep him occupied and well loved.
A BC's greatest joy is the love and attention of an active owner or family, while his greatest disappointment is inactivity and lack of attention.
BCs are extremely loyal dogs and love their humans. Wherever their family is, that's where they want to be too - whether that's out in a boat, in the back of a car, going for a walk, training for agility competitions or herding, or just watching television in the evening.
To be happy and content, King will need plenty of vigorous daily exercise, mental stimulation and play. As always, secure fencing is a must.
Preference will be given to homes where someone is around most of the time and/or there is another compatible dog for King to play with. Previous breed experience will be highly regarded.
If you are interested in meeting this lovely pup and can offer him a suitable, safe and loving forever home, PLEASE COMPLETE THE ONLINE ADOPTION APPLICATION at https://southerndownsark.com.au/apply-to-adopt/ and one of our volunteers will be in touch.
King's adoption fee is $795. He has had one vaccination and is microchipped and wormed. His adoption fee includes desexing when age appropriate.
Hamilton is available for interstate adoption, but all applicants must be prepared to travel to Warwick, Q. personally to meet him.
