Holly is a large, female Huntaway, aged 11 years old. She has a friendly personality. Loves cats and is great around chickens. Fairly sure shed be ok with kids. She's had enough of working now and is keen to just sit on the porch in the sun although happy to go for walks and runs behind the bike if not too far. She does bark as she's a huntaway but just when she's excited - generally dinner time as she loves her food!

Contact her owners via the link below:

Pat is a 10 tear old, well behaved, obedient heading dog who loves to work with sheep or cattle. He responds to voice or whistle and barks on command. He has never had an injury and is sound in mind and limb. Pat has an annual vaccination and vet check up which is due the last week of May. His owner is an 88 year old retired farmer, getting ready to move to town who would like to see Pat go to a good home, where there is plenty to keep him occupied.
Pat is full of energy, has a great nice nature and is very friendly. He is eager to get to work each day. He enjoys running about 2 - 4 kms each day alongside the atv.

If you have a great place for Pat contact his owner via the link below:
