We are currently looking for homes for some very special dogs.
These dogs do have issues that will need people who are experienced collie owners.
If you think you may be able to help please contact us, protectingprelovedbordercollies@yahoo.com
Daisy - 2 years
Daisy is a collie x (possibly lab) and is looking for her forever home.
Daisy came to us due to not getting on with the other dog and children in the household.
She is friendly girl who loves to play. She is good with most other dogs (but can be selective about who she likes) but will chase cats. She is currently in foster in Wales and anyone interested her would be encouraged to meet her (especially if they have another dog to make sure they get on ok). Daisy needs a quiet adult only home.
Nia - 7 months
Nia came to PPBC as a very scared puppy. She has now gained some confidence and is looking for her forever home. Ideally we would like any interested adopters to come and meet Nia at our head office in Wales so they can get to know her a little bit to help with the transition. If you feel that you can offer this lovely girl and a kind and caring home and the patience to go at her pace learning about the world then please email us.
Nia is in foster at our head office in Ammanford, Wales and prospective adopters will need to visit her there.
Buddy - 2 years
Calling all nurturing kind Ladies! … listen up … here’s a boy just for you!
Meet our Buddy, an adorable, 2 year 7 month old, entire Border Collie/Lab cross.
Buddy’s looking for a female only home, without dogs, or cats, with someone who wants a best furry friend, at the heart of her life to bond with. He’d prefer a quiet home that’s either edge of village/small town, close to countryside, semi rural, or rural.
Buddy craves the consistency and security of an uncomplicated, but active life, with his special lady human/s, where men won’t be regularly darkening your doorstep, and he can be a treasured mummy’s boy!
Young Buddy’s had a very rough time at the hands of an unkind man, and he’d love a new start, with a kind, patient, committed human mum, who’ll work with him, at his pace, to help Buddy leave the effects of those bad experiences behind him.
Buddy can pull, from excitement initially, and then walks well on his lead, even walking to heel when he’s into his stride.
He ignores some dogs, is quickly learning ‘leave’ with others and ignores sheep.
Buddy’s a nice dog, he’s very intelligent and receptive to training, helped by his love of food and treats, thanks to the Lab influence!
This boy will do anything for the promise of JR pets 100% meat pate!
Buddy is ready for his happy ever after! He will absolutely thrive with a firm but fair female hand.
NOTE: Any ladies interested in applying for Buddy, who are a match for his needs, can chat with Lynn about him in the first instance, and MUST be willing to travel to meet him, spend time with him, and walk with him, at least twice, at our HQ in Ammanford, Wales (by appointment only).
Look at that face - so worth a couple of road trips!
JESS - 5 YEARS
Jess is an affectionate girl and will readily jump on your knee for cuddles. She’s a worrier, and can get anxious and barky around strangers and other dogs.
She’ll allow you to wash and brush her, and rolls on her back to show you her tummy when the brush comes out!
Jess is an athletic girl and will need a minimum of 6 foot fencing, with a perimeter clear of any items that could be used as vaulting potential.
She is well mannered on her lead, but has never walked off the property, as she lives in the house conservatory, on a farm, with 25 acres of mixed woodland and grass.
Jess has had no experience of traffic, other than farm machinery, and little experience of travel. Her recall is reasonable but does require strengthening. Jess loves to play with her ball, and will happily retrieve it for you.
She shows no evidence of prey drive or guarding issues with food and toys. She’s never mixed with children.
She can be left for 2 hours initially and then gradually build it up.
Jess is not good with other dogs, and isn’t good with people she doesn’t know. She has a history of nipping, so this will need to be proactively managed.
Jess is seeking an adult only calm rural home without too many comings and goings. She is currently living with another dog but can be bossy with him so ideally would be better as an only dog.
SETH - 2 years
Seth, has a lovely temperament , happily interacts with his sibling, Bear, but we wouldn’t place him in a home with another male. He could live with a spayed female, with careful introductions.
Seth is good with people, very energetic as you’d expect from a curious adolescent, affectionate and immensely trainable.
Not suitable to live with cats or small furries and would need to be cautious around livestock until you understand and ‘have the measure’ of him.
Seth is strong on the lead, so this will need some work, he has no guarding issues and has good recall (this will need reinforcing in a new home), and he is fine being left for up to 4 hours.
Seth has had no experience of travel or traffic to date.
He will need time and understanding support from his new carer to transition into a home environment - he currently lives kennelled outdoors.
Seth is seeking a rural or semi-rural home where he could live with sensible dog-savvy children over 10.
Seth is in foster at our head office in Ammanford, Wales and prospective adopters will need to visit him there.
