Description

Soay's ideal home

Soay can live with teenagers but needs to be the only pet. We have no history for her and cannot guarantee that she is house trained or used to spending any time alone.

Could you be Soay's perfect match?

It's pronounced "soy"! This gorgeous little girl may be the tiniest Collie we've ever had, barley standing halfway up the average shin. It's hard to know her full size as she's a very worried girl when she's out on a walk and spends a lot of time crawling on her belly. Sven year old Soay is friendly and curious, but her fear always gets the better of her and she shows lots of appeasement behaviours such as rolling on her belly when meeting people. These aren't behaviours we want to encourage, we'd rather build her confidence and help her feel happier about life, but any potential adopters should research and understand what these behaviours signify in a dog. Soay should always be given time to explore any new environments. She has been friendly towards other dogs but has a very strong desire to herd them, and again shows the appeasement behaviours. We would advise that she should be the only pet at home whilst she finds her paws in her new life, but some very calm and non confrontational friends would be nice for walkies. Soay doesn't seem to be used to car travel and her family may have some work to do in building up a positive association with vehicles.

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.
