Melon
About This Dog
Melon's ideal home
Melon is looking for her forever retirement home! She is a gorgeous 11-year-old Border Collie who, despite her age, still love to go out & explore! Melon is an easy-going, young-at-heart lady who enjoys sniffy adventures and snoozes on the sofa in equal measure. She can live with secondary school aged children who understand she is an older girl and will need space to just chillax at times. Melon would like to be the only dog in the home but is more than happy to share her strolls with some calm & polite walking buddies that don’t expect play or lots of interaction from her. As she’s housetrained, she could live in a home with either a private or communal garden, or no garden given she has plenty of opportunity to go outside for toilet breaks. Once she’s settled into the home, Melon could be left for around 4 hours if built up positively & gradually. Due to her age, Melon does take some daily medication, which potential adopters will be given the details of upon being matched to her. Melon will need to meet her adopters a couple times prior to going home so please bear this in mind when applying. Please note that should you be shortlisted, our rehoming process usually takes up to 7 days, and potential adopters would be required to come up to the centre to meet him within 48hrs of being shortlisted.
Could you be Melon's perfect match?
Melon is completely house-trained and will tell you when she needs to go out by restlessly attracting your attention. Melon has her basic training and knows sit, paw & down, she also isn’t fussy with treats and takes them super gently! She hasn’t shown any interest in playing with toys or chasing a ball. Between walks, she’s content just to rest. She travels well in the car should you wish to take her on adventures further afield!
