Border Collie needing urgent home in Scotland

Just had this posted on our training club forum.

Would anyone be interested/able to help? I would love to but my parents are very anti collie

Have minimal information but have suggested breed specific rescue and more info.

"Border collie a year old (male) has 2 weeks to find a new home or he's getting put to sleep
think from what i was told the dog has nipped an 8 year old child (think the child tried to take a toy of the dog) sounds like the dog is being dominant and does not like anything being taken from him."

Poor soul, alot nip when young, it can be stopped though.

Hope someone can help him, he;s still very young so hopefully he will make a great dog for someone xx

My thoughts exactly

2 weeks isnt a lot of time to find him a new home but Hopefully someone will see his potential

where about in scotland?
Any contact number ?

oh no so sad I hope something can be done, wouldnt they rather put him into a breed rescue instead of pts.

have you tried border collie rescue? I dont have the details but my friends were in a similar situation trying to save a dumped dog (they had 4 so couldnt take on another) and they were really good

Contact this rescue:
http://www.greatdanewelfarescotland.co.uk/

Although it says great dane, they take in all breeds with a variety of backgrounds.

Cumbernauld, North Lanarkshire?

Will try get a number but would probably need to private message you it and I cant do that till you've reached 20 posts. Will see if they dont mind me posting it on an open forum.

I really would hope they would try get him in rescue. They say they spoke to Dogs Trust and because he had nipped they wouldnt accept him. So think they gave up on the idea after that. Feel so sorry for the misunderstood tyke

Will pass on all of the details use have given me really appreciate.

the scottish BC rescue would probably foster him at least.

Also if no one comes forward to take him how about seeing if somone will foster him until they find him a 'forever home'?
(I dont think I could with my male..)
