Nyx
About This Dog
Nyx's ideal home
One for the Collie fans? Meet the wonderful Nyx. A seven-year-old Collie looking for a loving home. She could potentially live with another dog in the home and would benefit from having opportunities to socialise with other dogs when out and about on her walks. Nyx has a high chase drive and will need a home without cats, small furries, and care will be needed around livestock. She has a lovely temperament around people, including experience with children and could share her home with primary school aged children. Nyx has come from a farm environment and may need help with her housetraining. She is fearful of car travel and is seeking a home with lovely walks right on her doorstep. She could cope with a reasonably busy home environment and as she has not lived in a house before time left alone is best built up gradually and positively. Experience of the breed would be helpful.
Could you be Nyx's perfect match?
Nyx is a beautiful girl, affectionate, sweet natured, calm and chilled-out with a good overall temperament. She failed her sheep dog training and instead would adore building a bond with a person, or a family. She is a ‘people’ dog and always runs to greet her humans with a big waggy tail. She loves a fuss and snuggles. She walks nicely on her lead and she has good recall. She loves treats so why not teach her some new skills using positive reward training. Nyx has experience of being around other dogs on the farm and visitors coming to the farm with other dogs. She is not used to playing with toys however, when she visited us here at the rehoming centre she enjoyed having a squeaky chicken. Toy play may be something she can enjoy in her new home.
