Collie · Male · Senior · 12 years

Hey everyone I'm Scout and I am looking for a home where I can live out the rest of our days. I have had a lot of changes over the last few months where my original owner who bred me sadly passed away, the extended family couldn't keep me and then I got rehomed by the lovely people here at the NAWT. Unfortunately, due to no fault of my own, my new owners can not keep me as they have developed some health issues. I am currently staying with them until a new suitable home is found, and are being well looked after and cared for so I don't mind too much!I am a lovely older gent, very gentle and very loving once I know you and have got over some initial shyness - you can just tell that I have been really cared for over the years. I am more nervous than my sister Tiegan who is also looking for a new home, especially if out in busy environments, and you will see my tail go between my legs. I much prefer a slower pace of life and a more rural location, I am a countryside loving Collie and everyone adores me!I love my food and I also love a real fuss so I wont stray far away from my owner at all and walk beautifully on the lead. I may bark a bit when I get in the car at first or when first let out in the garden or if the door bell goes. I haven't lived with cats before but that might be a possibility. Although I have been living with Tiegan I'm not keen on sharing my space with any other dogs. I can walk past them on my walks but I wouldn't like strange dogs rushing up to me and getting in my face.I had piled on the pounds but am slowing loosing some weight with a good diet and exercise, and I am a little weak on my back legs so am on some pain medication to help me. I have the most beautiful coat that will need some care and maintenance, but I have been used to visiting the groomers regularly so don't mind a pamper. I absolutely love the outdoors and spend a lot of time in the garden so am really hoping my new home has lots of outdoor space too. I am good as gold to leave in the house and just settle down for another snooze - as I am a bit older now I do tend to spend quite a bit of time sleeping!If a beautiful gentle Collie (or two!!) is something you might consider, please do get in touch xx NAWT Cornwall Wheal Alfred Kennels Wheal Alfred Road Hayle Cornwall TR27 5JT Choose an item from our Amazon wish-list and it will come straight to us!
