Title: Part trained working collie for sale

We are looking to sell Zac, part trained working collie, as moving off our smallholding.


He is two in December, a stunning dog, has all his papers (trial and agility champs in bloodlines) but has worked with only small flocks to date. Shows real promise, swift and not too aggressive with sheep.


Great with children, a real softie loves a cuddle, we will miss him.


Reasonable offers considered as good new home for him more important to me than the money.

Oh what a shame, can you not take him with you? Most collies can adapt if it means staying with a beloved owner :love:


Also, though I can only dream is he ISDS reg or KC?

Hi,


Until a year ago he was working with a small flock moving them around, knows basic commands but is instinctive too. Now he is just moving sheep behind the fences in fields by the house!


He also regularly rounds up the chickens for fun.


I am trying to attach a photo of him.


kind regards
Bec

My life would not be the same without a Border Collie, unfortunately my Wife would send me out to sleep in the barn where our BC is supposed to sleep if a bring another one home!!!

Good luck with finding a suitable home.
