Description

Tess's ideal home

Tess is a very special dog who needs a very special home. She is amazing, affectionate, fun loving and water daft! Tess has lived in a loving home all of her life and loves to be around people. She is cuddly and adores playing with all sorts of toys. She has the very busy mind of a collie and does need to have something to do to keep her busy mind active. This would be easier if Tess was not frightened of things outside, in particular certain loud noises but most of all the sight and sound of any vehicle. Living at the rehoming centre she has become more comfortable with this but at first in a new environment would need her own quiet garden with no noises in the immediate surrounds and definitely no vehicle sounds nearby. She would be ideal to roam a large garden and would love to have water to play in as this is her most favourite thing in the universe! But beware - she does get muddy.

Could you be Tess's perfect match?

Tess can entertain herself if not kept busy and is a wonderful dog for those who are willing to work around her ways. She loves a cuddle, loves to join in looking for things, loves tug and fetch and also having a quiet pet, half on your knee. She does take a long time to trust people fully and can still be worried by fast moving hands and noises if they catch her attention. She would benefit from her own chill out area in the house.

If you think you have the right environment then call us for more information. And to re-iterate, she must live in a very quiet home with no traffic nearby, her own garden and an adult only home with no other pets. Tess is a 7 year old collie.

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.
