    Border Collie, well trained

    A friend of mine who does dog rehoming has asked me to look out for a home for a 5 year old Border Collie bitch. She has come from a farm where she was trained to a high standard for sheep, but is not interested in sheep! Rather than keep her around but not have the time for her, the farmer would like to find a better home for her. She has lived in the house, is house-trained, immaculately behaved and has no problems behavioural or physical. She is just a lovely, pretty, well behaved dog who would love an active home where she could be someone's running companion (at least you know she won't chase stock!). She has been neutered, vaccinated, de-flead and wormed. This is a great opportunity for someone to have a problem-free dog who would be a real pleasure to have around.

    If anyone's interested please PM me and i will pass on the number of the lady who has the dog, who is currently in Todmorden.

    Good luck with the collie, I hope you're as happy with her as we are with Ernie.

    So jealous, you beat me to it!!

    Could do with adopting a well behaved female Collie to show the ropes to our badly behaved rescue Collie. Always intended to have two anyway. Anyone know of one?????

    Anyway, good luck with your new four legged friend :thumbup:
