What an absolutely lovely bunch we have in at the moment šŸ„°
Tam is so much more chilled out and is gaining more and more confidence every day. Heā€™s been having some meet and greets with a lovely couple from our waiting list which are going really well so far šŸ¤ž
Cassie, who was camera shy today is just lovely. Sheā€™s still proving super friendly with everyone and is very comfortable here now! Her recall is improving, she still just becomes a bit conveniently deaf when someone new appears who sheā€™d much rather go and say hi too!
Archie is getting a wee bit fed up in the kennel but has made a full recovery from the old snip and is back out on full walks. We did have a potential new home in the pipelines but unfortunately his hatred for cats has put an end to that so he is also still looking for his new home.
Shunni is such a wee sweetheart. Although a lot more confident here now she is still quite wary of new people initially.
Shadow is still enjoying life here. Weā€™re really pleased with how heā€™s coming along šŸ„°

Last Week Also Saw Muck Leave Us for His New Home šŸ„° He had a fair journey to get there but is doing well and was clearly delighted with his new family.
People often ask me how do I manage to let them go and not keep them all, but that moment when they leave all smiles and quite happy jumping in the car really does make it all worthwhile. Thatā€™s exactly why we do it. Yes I would selfishly love to keep them all but they deserve their own families where they get all the attention and love šŸ„°

Cassie has also paid a visit to the vets to get her eye checked out and her vaccinations. She travelled really well and was good as gold at the vets. As predicted an absolute sook who had the vet wrapped round her wee paw šŸ˜‚ As we thought, the vet has confirmed she does have some damage to one of her eyes and does have partial vision. This doesnā€™t affect her at all and will not require any treatment.
Cassie has been with us nearly a month now and is another one who has proved extremely friendly and laid back. She craves attention and would love nothing better than to be petted ALL dayā€¦and night! Her extremely soft nature would make her a brilliant family pet. She can be a bit wary for the first 5 mins but then prefers to wear people! Sheā€™s shown no typical herding behaviors at all and has also not bothered with the cat or any of our livestock.
Her recall is really the only thing that could do with some workā€¦.and she is a bit of a Houdini. Although sheā€™s happy pottering around here and has never left the grounds, she isnā€™t great at coming back to you when called.
Sheā€™s been out with all the other dogs and has been fine. She isnā€™t really fussed with other dogs and would much prefer the company of people. She was a bit wary of my kids initially but once she realised they would clap and play with her she was delighted.

Sorry for lack of postsā€¦again! Weā€™ve been extremely busy in the kennels over the past few weeks.
Archie was in at the vets last week to get neutered. He was a pro, took it all in his stride and is recovering really well. Weā€™ve been making the most of his restricted exercise to do some more toilet training with him and itā€™s going really well. He really is such a lovely, soft natured boy.
Heā€™s friendly with everyone and good with the kids. Out on his walks he also gets on well with other dogs, most of the time just pottering about doing his own thing. However he has shown some aggression towards certain other dogs whilst in the kennel environment, therefore we are looking for a home for Archie as an only dog. He hates cats so definitely no cats.
Archie has a bit of a split personalityā€¦.he has been started on sheep and now knows his basic commands but he is very keen and strong whilst around livestock so would need an experienced handler to further his training.
However when away from livestock he is the complete opposite, very chilled, laid back and affectionate and would make someone a fantastic and loyal pet.
If you think you could offer Archie a loving home please click the link below to fill out our rehoming application form. šŸ˜Š

We also welcomed back Archie this week tooā€¦Archie was actually given to us about a month ago as a dog who was too keen for sheep and his owner couldnā€™t handle him. Unfortunately this resulted in him being kept in a shed the majority of the time until a Good Samaritan took him in, who found him to be very friendly but again wired around sheep with zero recall and extremely underweight. After he arrived with us I asked more experienced friends of mine to take him in to see if he would be better suited as a working dog or a pet and he was getting on well with his training but not so well with their other dog.
Archie is extremely friendly with everyone including my kids, he has a very soft and chilled out nature. He actually gets on fine with the other dogs here when out for walks but can be quite kennel territorial with certain dogs and he does food guard so we will be looking for a home for him as an only dog. He hates cats with a passion. He travels well and Iā€™ve got him booked in to the vets this week so we will see how that goes! He has only been started on training with the sheep and knows his sides and stop but would need an experienced handler if he was going to a working home. I do think he would be equally happy as a pet but his new owners would need to be aware of his high drive around livestock.
Heā€™s booked in to the vets this week to get a check over as weā€™re still struggling to get the weight on him and he is booked in to get neutered in a couple of weeks too.

Busy, Busy Weekend Here as We Welcomed 2 New Dogsā€¦
šŸ¶ Meet Tam, who is a 13month old male black and white collie. Tam has come to us as a change in his owners circumstances meant he could no longer give Tam the time he needs. Weā€™ve been told heā€™s good with other dogs but can be barky and wary of new people.
šŸ¶ Meet Cassie, sheā€™s a 2 year old red and white collie bitch. Cassie has also come to us from Shetland. Unfortunately she damaged one of her eyes as a puppy and no longer has full vision out of that eye. Weā€™ve been told sheā€™s an absolute sook, loves people and gets on well with other dogs. Sheā€™s never lived in a home overnight but is used to being in a home environment.
We look forward to seeing how these 2 settle in over the next wee while and start assessing them before looking for new homes. šŸ„°
