Toby's ideal home

Toby can live with children over 16 and will need to be the only dog. He can be left by himself for two or three hours once settled and is house trained.

Could you be Toby's perfect match?

Toby is a sweet boy who had a rocky start to life after being illegal smuggled in to the UK from Eastern Europe. He made his way to us after a quarantine period and was subsequently rehomed twice. He's back with us again and it's easy to understand why a kennel environment is not his favourite place. He's a friendly boy if you take things slowly with him, but he will panic if swamped by people. Toby loves long walks and is well behaved on his lead, and he loves to take plenty time to sniff about and see what's been happening. One of his favourite things is sunbathing and he adores the beach, just not the sea! Toby is not a fan of wildlife and will need to be kept on lead in woodland etc, as he has a very high prey drive. He's affectionate and likes to snuggle on the sofa when he's comfortable He was previously living with another dog but there was a lot of conflict between the two and this is why he was returned to our care. So that he doesn't find himself in that situation again, we will be rehoming him as an only dog. He has interacted nicely with some dogs at the centre, and he'd probably like some nice walking pals at home, once his new family have got to know him. Food is Toby's biggest motivator and it's a great way to build a bond with him, but he has helped himself to things on the counter before now!

Border Collie Buying Checklist

We highly recommend every buyer reads through the below advice when purchasing or rehoming a Border Collie.

  • View the animal in the place it was born and raised - check for genuine home environments if buying privately, or the quality of the breeders set-up if applicable.
  • If viewing a puppy under 6 months, by law they MUST be seen with their mum.
  • Make sure the animal's old enough to be rehomed. 8 weeks should be the earliest a puppy can be rehomed.
  • By law, all dogs MUST be microchipped

Avoid Potential Scams

There are a number of red flags to look out for when purchasing a new puppy:

  • Seller demands a deposit without allowing you to see the dog first - never send any money before meeting the animal in person
  • Seller is reluctant to send you additional photos or videos
  • Seller offers to deliver the dog/puppy
  • Seller asks to meet in a mutual location
  • Seller uses fake or stolen photos from the internet. Always carry out a "Google image search".

Although we have a number of automated systems in place to prevent scam and fraudulant adverts, these can never be 100% accurate and its important to use caution when buying online. We do not accept any responsibility for transactions between our users, especially when our safe buying advice is not followed.
