Sprocket - Collie x

Sprocket is a 2 1/2 year old Collie x and is currently on foster in Coleford, Gloucestershire.



Sprocket is a lovely dog with a super personality. He has improved hugely in the short time he has been in his foster home. Initially he was very nervous about going out, was anxious about noises, and did not know how to play.



Now nearly 2 weeks on he walks well on the lead, responds to ‘walkies’ with excitement and generally walks well. If he hears a noise he does stay close but soon gets back to the walk. Sprocket will now go out in the garden without prompts but does prefer a bit of company.

Sprocket loves running around with neighbour’s dogs and we think he would learn from another dog particularly how to play. Therefore we would like Sprocket to go to a home where he has another dog to keep him company and help him overcome his fears.



Sprocket is looking for a home where someone is around for most of the day as he doesn't really like to be on his own. He is not destructive when left. Sprocket has not spent much time with children so a home with no children or visiting children would be preferred.



All Hope Rescue dogs are neutered, vaccinated, wormed, flea treated and microchipped prior to rehoming. A homecheck will be required, and you will need to come and meet the dog with your own dogs and family. Hope Rescue rehomes throughout the UK.

This handsome boy is still looking for his forever home
