Looking for dog/bitch perfect.

On Sunday January25 2009, we had to have our much loved 17year old Border Collie bitch. Bette. put to sleep.
She was a wonderful old lady and whilst she can never be 'replaced' I can't let us drift into a state of doglessness, so I am actively looking for a young Border Collie dog or bitch who is looking for a rural, experienced, family home with people who are there mostly 24/7 and who know the requirements of this intelligent breed. Would love to find a dog locally (30 mile radius of Trawsfynydd) but I have car and can travel so long as I know where I'm going. Crying or Very sad

Hi Chrissy,

Sorry to read about Bette Crying or Very sad

There are quite a few Border Collie breed rescue sites which you may like to try:

http://www.bordercollierescue.org
http://www.wiccaweys.co.uk
http://www.bordercollietrustgb.org.uk

Also check DogsBlog:

Here are some reasonably local rescue centres to try as well - it may well be that not all the available dogs are listed online so definitely give them a call:

Also worth contacting the RSPCA: http://www.rspca.org.uk/servlet/S...PCA/RSPCARedirect&pg=rehoming.

Very Happy
