Please read our Homing Criteria BEFORE applying for any of our dogs.
BREED: Collie Cross
SEX: Male (Neutered)
AGE: Aprox. 7 Years
SIZE: Medium
Shep is a lovely boy who has led a rather sad and loveless life, and then just been given up for rehoming because his owners had lost- interest him, poor guy. Apparently he has not enjoyed any affection or much attention, and basically just hung around the house and garden, enduring a lonely life. Despite this he is a sweet boy who just longs to be loved and to have his own specia someone.
Shep has not lived with cats or small pets. He has not lived with children, so we would not wish to place him with youngsters under 10 years. He has been in in a care facility for several weeks waiting for a space at DBARC, and has mixed freely with a large number of other dogs and has been good with all.
Shep walks nicely on the lead, but has been largely ignored, which is so sad as he loves his walks. We hope someone is ready to give him all the things he has been missing out on, and company most of the time.
When a dog moves into a new home, they need time and consideration to help them feel confident and settled. They are having to adjust to a totally different environment, with new people and new challenges, and when one adopts a rescue dog, one must be ready to help them through not just the first few days, but for as long as it takes for them to feel comfortable in their new life. They are relying on their new owners to teach them the house rules and all about the new world they are living in. They are likely to need and benefit from dog training classes, and may also need behavioural help and the adopter may need to seek professional advice. If you are considering adopting, please be very sure that you are committed to the needs of your new friend, as they will be relying on you and their life and happiness is literally in your hands. This will last for their lifetime, so please also take an honest look at your age and activity levels and ensure that you are likely to be able to meet their ongoing needs.
