Description

Bunsen's ideal home

Meet Bunsen! This lively six-month-old Smooth Collie is full of potential and love. Bunsen can be stressed in new settings, so he’d thrive in a calm, rural home—ideally a farm or rural area and people experienced with the Working Collie breed. Originally a stray, we don’t have any history of what he’ll be like in a home and has shown very strong breed traits and behaviours, including a high prey drive, but here at the centre, he’s shown he’s great with other dogs and may be able to live with another dog subject to a meet here at the centre and could live with older primary school aged children.

Could you be Bunsen's perfect match?

He’s very clever and would love someone who’s excited to do training with him and give him a job to do to keep his sharp mind busy. Our training team will be on hand to support his new family with anything he needs. He’s ready to light up your life like a Bunsen burner—just add love and watch him glow!

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.
