Meet Bud
Bud is a friendly white and ginger heading dog aged 10.
He still wants to work but has slowed down and needs to be on a small block.
A bit about Bud's personality: Bud always comes up for a pat. He loves playing chase with a ball or stick with the other dogs. Got a space for Bud? Click below

This is much loved beautiful Rose. She is a 5 year old Huntaway X.

Rose came from a farm, but her owners don't know much about her history other than she liked hunting possums. She loves being in the paddock which is her sanctuary and where she feels most at home, she loves sniffing out holes. You can tell when she's in her happy place when she is leaping and bounding through the grass. Her owners don't have stock so haven't had the opportunity to experience her skills

Rose is only suited to a rural farm whether working or not. Not suited as a townhouse dog as that would not be her happy place. She belongs in the country side, paddocks and long grass. And super bonus if you have another dog and I believe she would greatly benefit from having a life long dog friend.

For much much more info on Rose and owners contact details follow the link below:
