Fizz - 14 month old male Border Collie

Fizz is a 14 month old Border Collie male who is looking for a new home because his owners felt they were unable to cope and didn’t have the time to train him. Fizz is an active, energetic and lively boy both in body and mind. He has unfortunately learnt and been allowed to get away with unacceptable behaviours like chasing joggers and cyclists.

He is a very friendly boy who gets along well with everyone he meets but has a habit of nipping at ankles when excited or if he is being ignored, however this behaviour is improving and he has also now learnt all the basic commands. His new owners will need to continue his training, including teaching him manners and taking him to training classes. He is very intelligent and eager to please, a home where he can learn agility would be ideal. This lad needs to be kept busy.

Fizz is toilet-trained, walks well on his lead and has a good recall off-lead. He is new owners will be expected to exercise him initially on a 100 foot trailing-line until they feel confident that he will return mid chase after a jogger. He will need a two to three hours exercise daily, including plenty of stimulating mind games played at home. He loves going for trips out in the car and is learning to quieten down when strangers approach.

He gets along very well with other dogs and could play rough-and-tumble and chase for hours. He would benefit from living with a well-behaved adult dog who has the same energy levels. Playful Fizz is looking for an active and sporty guardian. He can become destructive and bored if left alone for long periods so will need someone who is around for most of the day. His new family will have owned Collies before, and will have the experience and willingness to take on a lively teenager.

This bright lad has already ready shown himself to learn very quickly, with further input and dedication from his new owners he will grow up to be a loyal, well-behaved and responsive companion. Any children in his new home will be at least 16 years and upwards. Fizz is looking for a perfect new home, a home where he will be loved and cherished for the rest of his life.
