Description
This is one of the hardest things we've ever had to do, and we've been going back and forth on even posting this. Arya is a 10-month-old intact male Border Collie, and we've had him since he was 8 weeks old. He is the light of our lives and we love him too much to keep him in a situation where we can no longer give him what he deserves. Our circumstances have changed, and we have to be honest with ourselves about that. He is an incredible dog. Confident, fearless, loves people (will give you kisses within seconds of meeting you) loves other dogs. He's brilliantly socialised, totally unbothered by traffic, runners, cyclists and kids. He is calm on trains, trams, buses and in the car, great with vets. He is such an explorer and makes our hikes so much more interesting. He is house-trained, sleeps happily on his own, can be left alone for 5-6 hours without a problem. He has good basic obedience, including sit, stay, wait, middle, paw, touch, leave it, place. His heeling and recall are coming along really well. We are currently training him for Kennel Club Good Citizen Award. He's incredibly food-motivated and is easy to train. He's not perfect though, and there are certain things we want to be upfront about. He's 10 months old so he's very much in his teenage phase with a very big personality... he can be bratty, he can go over threshold, we live in a high rise apartment and we can see that he is getting a bit bored/frustrated here. He's working through some overarousal mouthing (not aggressive) He gets bored and starts chewing things, though he'll swap happily for a yak chew. He counter surfs but it's never been a big deal for us as we keep surfaces clear but mentioning it because it might matter to someone. He can fixate on dogs he wants to play with, but the moment he understands that they're not interested, he disengages quickly. We need him to go to someone with experience. A home with a garden. Someone who has the time, space, and understanding of collies.
