BOBBY (M) almost 1 year old – adoption via BorderLineCollie Characteristics Date of birth: 3/05/2023 Gender: Male Registered with LOF/LOSH/ISDS: Yes Disabilities: No Interaction with children: From the age of adolescence Interaction with dogs: Yes, but must be tested. Interaction with cats: Preferably no Interaction with others: No Character Bobby is an adorable Border Collie teenager. He is not very affectionate. Story Bobby arrived in the foster family at the age of 4 months. He was handed over to BorderLineCollie by his first owners partly because of his barking and behavior towards cats. He would not leave them alone, causing a lot of tension. At first, Bobby was very focused on everything that moved and was agitated in his actions. He found the rest he needed in the cage. At first, he learned a lot and played with the other Border Collies present. It was and still is his passion and life. Of course, they also worked on his very strong focus on cats, traffic and swirling leaves. By setting clear boundaries, this behavior has improved well. Bobby is very interested in working with sheep. He is eager to be able to work with sheep occasionally. When training him, it is around the enclosure. In its current state, Bobby could certainly become a good working dog with sheep. Bobby knows the cage and the kennel. Traveling by car is not a problem for him, but one side of the kennel is covered with a blanket because otherwise he is too occupied by the traffic. Walks are going better, but he sometimes reacts fearfully to objects he encounters. Bobby is certainly not a house dog - a (recreational) work with sheep is preferable!!! Home sought For Bobby, BLC is looking for adopters who will give him structure (domestic), clear limits and directions. The above indicates what needs to be taken into account! Adoption Neutered/spayed: No, but will be Vaccinated: Yes Identifier: 528210006814345 Address: Drouwen, Netherlands Contact person: Maco Hoogenboom (Netherlands) or Veerle Baekelandt (Belgium) via PB Email: Share on Pinterest Share with your friends Your Name Your Email Recipient Email Enter a Message I read this article and found it very interesting, I think you might like it.

FR·Show original

Caractère: Bobby est un adorable Border Collie adolescent. Il n'est pas très câlin. Son histoire: Bobby est arrivé dans la famille d'accueil à l'âge de 4 mois. Il a été confié à BorderLineCollie par ses premiers propriétaires en partie à cause de ses aboiements et de son comportement envers les chats. Il ne les laissait pas tranquilles, ce qui provoquait beaucoup de tensions. Au début, Bobby était très concentré sur tout ce qui bougeait et était agité dans ses actions. Il a trouvé le repos dont il avait besoin dans la cage. Au début, il a beaucoup appris et a joué avec les autres Border Collies présents. C'était et c'est toujours sa passion et sa vie. Bien sûr, ils ont également travaillé sur sa très forte concentration sur les chats, la circulation et les feuilles qui tourbillonnent. En fixant des limites claires, ce comportement s'est bien amélioré. Bobby est très intéressé par le travail avec les moutons. Il est impatient de pouvoir lui aussi travailler avec les moutons de temps en temps. Lorsqu'il s'entraîne avec lui, c'est autour de l'enclos. Dans l'état actuel des choses, Bobby pourrait certainement devenir un bon chien de travail avec les moutons. Bobby connaît la cage et le chenil. Ce déplacer en voiture n'est pas un problème pour lui, mais un côté de la niche est recouvert d'une couverture car sinon il est trop occupé par la circulation. Les promenades se déroulent de mieux en mieux, mais il réagit encore parfois de manière effrayée aux objets qu'il rencontre. Bobby n'est certainement pas un chien de salon - un travail (récréatif) avec des moutons est préférable !!! Le foyer idéal: Pour Bobby, BLC recherche des adoptants qui lui donneront une structure (domestique), des limites claires et des directives. Ce qui précède indique ce qu'il faut prendre en compte !

About BOBBY

What life with BOBBY looks like

BOBBY is a young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Border Line Collie in borderlinecollie.

A young adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. Two reasonable walks a day plus play time is usually enough. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

🇫🇷Adopting from France

French refuges follow the SPA framework: adopters sign a cession contract that includes sterilization, vaccinations, microchip identification, and rabies passport. Many refuges work with rescue transport partners for cross-border placements.

Frequently asked

Adopting BOBBY, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about BOBBY?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Border Line Collie handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw BOBBY on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt BOBBY if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Border Line Collie will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is BOBBY already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?: Most dogs on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if BOBBY isn't the right fit?: Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work — that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with Border Line Collie early rather than rehoming privately; they know BOBBY and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.
Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?: TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (FR). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically.
