Age: 3 Years
Breed: Border Collie
Size: Medium
Gender: Male
Meet Artimus!
Beautiful Border Collie Artimus is typical of his breed; energetic, lively and he loves to be busy. We are looking for an experienced forever home with an owner who understands his breed and his needs. His fosterer describes him as “a bundle of super fun and intelligence.”
We don’t know a lot about Arti’s life before he came to us, but his training has already progressed in leaps and bounds. He is very, very clever, with boundless energy, and he loves his toys.
His fosterer has told us that he walks nicely on his lead and has passed other dogs with no issue. He travels well in the car, he likes a fuss and a bit of a play but then he happily settles down for a snooze afterwards. He is quiet overnight and clean in the house. He is also cuddly and loving.
Arti is happy around most dogs, however he can become stressed around dogs with particularly high energy levels. He would love to live with a calm and friendly dog who would give him space when he needs it. He cannot be rehomed with cats or children. What Arti would love most is an active, adult-only home where he could continue with his training.
Are you a Collie lover who could offer Arti a happy home?

ADOPTION PROCESS
We have a number of animals in our care. Most are homeless through no fault of their own and are looking for furever homes and owners who can give them the love and attention they deserve.
Please take a few moments to familiarise yourself with our adoption process:
Step 1:
The animal is admitted into our care, and assessed by our team.
Step 2:
The animal is examined by a vet, who treats any ailments or injuries.
Step 3:
The appropriate team leader will liaise with the potential adopter to get to know them and assess whether they are a potential purr-fect match.
Step 4:
The potential new owners meet the animal, and decide if they want to adopt. New owners may be asked to visit the animal several times before the adoption takes place.
Step 5:
A pre-adoption home visit will then be made to new owners home to meet the members of the household and to ensure that the environment is safe.
Step 6:
If the visit goes well, you will be asked to collect the animal and to make an adoption donation (amount on request) as well as to sign an agreement to care for the pet with a commitment to return them to us if you can't continue to do so.
