On behalf of a friend:

Housetrained
Walks well on a lead
Reasonable recall

Has a great temperament and is excellent with children and other dogs.

He does need further training.  He is in the lammermuirs, south of Edinburgh

Eta: they are wanting £200 for him.

Oooh he does look adorable and I would love some help with my sheep but I have never trained a sheepdog and it's a little far from Wiltshire!  I hope you find him a lovely home. Such a shame if he doesn't get to do what he loves.

wow, how lovely is he!  Sadly I also live inconveniently far away (North Wales) and have no experience (although my welsh teachers husband trains them , so I could get lots of advice?).  Also not sure if the bank would stretch - we went to annual working dog sale in Bala this weekend ... £450 - £2800 whilst I was there!!!!
