Adopt Jet

Border Collie · Male · Young · 2 years

Jet is looking for a home with active adopters who can take him for sniffy adventures in quiet walking areas, or for a run around in a private field, a family to keep up his training. He would like a calm and predictable home with only adults who will play with him nicely and will give him space to rest when he needs. Jet finds being in close proximity to dogs worrying, so would like to be the only pet in the home so he can have all of the attention to himself and no neighbouring dogs, he would prefer walks in quieter areas so he can explore at his leisure. Jet has some training under his belt, he knows his name and does a lovely “sit”, he is currently working on his muzzle training as he will be going home on a lead and muzzle disclaimer. He is a clever boy, but gets distracted easily so could engage in training in short, sweet sessions with the help of a tasty treat and lots of praise for encouragement. He is looking for a home with a private, secure garden with 6ft fencing for him to potter about and have off lead time in. Jet can settle nicely in the home so could be left for up to 4 hours, this would need to be built up slowly once he has had time to settle in. Jet will need to meet his adopters multiple times prior to going home with the potential for home visits with our behaviour team to make sure he is settling in well, so please bear this in mind when applying. Please note that should you be shortlisted, our rehoming process usually takes up to 7 days, and potential adopters would be required to come up to the centre to meet him within 48hrs of being shortlisted. Home requirements: Playful boy Jet is a 2 and a half year old Collie/Labrador cross who loves his toys. He will chase and bound around after toys that are thrown for him and will bring them back to be thrown again, he likes to carry a toy around with him for comfort.

He enjoys a good outdoor adventure, especially in the woods where it is quieter and he can sniff and explore at his leisure. This beautiful boy is ready to find his new home.
