Dear little Snip(pet) is a very inquisitive pup. She will investigate her surroundings and not be threatened by the unusual. She is gentle and comes when she’s called (albeit a bit delayed if she’s busy with something). She loves cuddles and being with people, especially children. She is one of four kelpie x pups from an original six from Grafton, NSW. She holds her own in the pack despite being smaller than the boys and will make an excellent allround, family dog.

Kiki is very smart! She is already rounding up her great dane foster sibling in the backyard.  She has loads of energy and it is our belief that she would not be best suited to a suburban yard unless she has constant company or regular and intensive exercise/activity.  When walking she constantly looks at you to check where you are and walks right next to her foster mum the whole time. She will be one smart dog with the right time and training.  She can’t sit still for too long and has been known to find her way up on to the outdoor table! She can be a little nippy still when she is overexcited but she is fearless.

Kaia is a very timid dog, who is slowly gaining confidence after being in the pound. At present she is quite scared of walking in public and when she sees another dog she reacts by trying to run away however once she is used to her environment she is very playful and a good dog. She will need someone who can spend time with her to get her to be a more confident dog.  She would be best in a situation with no other dogs, or a very placid one as a companion.

Matilda is an 11 week old short haired border collie puppy. She is intelligent, loyal and incredibly smart. Matilda would make a wonderful working dog, she has the eye for herding and a strong instinct. Matilda needs lots of stimulation and she is very keen to please. Matilda is a quieter dog in the litter, she has a calmness about her and does not get flustered easily. Matilda has beautiful markings with the tri-colour marks down the legs and her little stand up ears are super cute!

These pups have been well socialised with toddlers, cats and other dogs and have been fostered on a farm with chooks and horses. They have been given lots of affection and cuddles, but taught basic manners with a firm but gentle hand.

Matilda will make an incredible companion, a great worker or if a pet, she will need to have plenty of room and stimulation. Border Collies are working dogs and require mental and physical stimulation. If they are not given enough to do, they will become destructive and your garden and furniture will suffer.  If given enough to do however, she will make an incredible pet.

In accordance with Victorian legislation and our own policies all dogs are microchipped, vaccinated to C5 and wormed, in addition to being desexed (if too young they are adopted under a desexing contract). Microchip numbers will be divulged to the successful adoption applicant.
