It is with such a heavy heart that we have to do this. Theo is our beautiful boy, but because of a naughty mistake, he must be rehomed, or face being put down.
He escaped our yard, went on a fun adventure, but ended up at our neighbours farm, chased their sheep, bit one, and it ended up dying the next day.
Our neighbours are (rightfully so) not happy one bit, and have demanded that action be taken.
We are normally the ones who take in surrendered, unwanted, death-row dogs... Never in a million years, did we think we would be the one's in this position, and it breaks my heart. But even with us taking measures to secure our yard like Fort Knox, our neighbours do not want the risk of it happening again, so we must find Theo a new home.
Anyone who has come out to the farm to meet their new puppy, has most likely met Theo, and he is the friendliest, most lovable, smoochy guy.
Theo is a 2 year old, entire male, Australian Cattle Dog.
He is great with our children and new children who come to visit.
He is good with other dogs of all ages and sizes, BUT he likes to be the dominant dog, so sometimes does not see eye to eye with other entire male dogs/other dominant dogs.
Theo knows basic obedience, and has great recall. We never have to walk him on a leash around the farm. He is happy to follow us where we go. On our afternoon walks, he happily runs along beside us. He loves a good buggy/motorbike run along too!
We have had him since he was 8 weeks old, and have raised him with exposure to most things, like we do with our pups.
All of our dogs are regularly wormed and flea treated.
I would love for him to go to a home on acerage, as that is all he has ever known. But if the right people came along, who are willing to give him his exercise, and will spoil him being an inside dog, I will consider a residential home also.
Like all Dogs, but especially Australian Cattle Dogs, they need attention and exercise. And I will only consider the very best home options for our Theo. Someone with experience with Cattle Dogs.
Theo is NOT a working dog, he is a beloved family pet, and will not go to a working dog environment. So do not ask, he does not work, and is not able to learn now.
If Theo sounds like he would suit your family, or you know of someone who might be interested in giving him a loving, beautiful home, then please share this or contact me.
I am happy to answer any questions, and for those who enquire, please don't be offended when I ask you a million.
