Looking for a dog
My sheltie lost his companion some time ago, and I thought I would give a home to a heading dog bitch who maybe wasn't quite up to the job on a farm, or getting on a bit in years. She would become a house dog in a securely fenced section, and go with us on long walks in the forest or at the beach. She would have to make friends with our cat, and we would become a happy family of four. If you have a bitch you would like to put out to pasture, message me and I will be pleased to get in touch.
