Say hello to the whirlwind that is Miss Harley - part dog, part adorable chaos machine, and 100% joy in motion! At around 20kg with a little growing still to do, Harley is a young Border Collie bursting with enthusiasm, curiosity, and enough bouncy energy to power a small village (or at least your morning routine). Think energetic toddler vibes... but with more fur and fewer nap breaks.
Being a Border Collie, Harley is whip-smart and thrives on action. Her ideal home will keep her busy not just with daily walks and games, but with puzzle toys, training sessions, and all the brain-boosting enrichment you can offer. A physically tired Harley is good... but a mentally tired Harley? That's the real win.
Harley would be best suited to a home with adults or secondary school-aged children who are ready to embrace her bubbly personality and continue her positive, force-free training journey. She's still learning her manners (remember: toddler!) and needs patient, engaged humans who can help guide her through all the excitement life has to offer. Any children will need to come along for the meet and greet to make sure everyone clicks.
She may also be able to live with another dog-pending a meet and greet, as long as they're ready to match her playful energy and help show her the ropes. She's full of love and excitement and needs a buddy who won't be overwhelmed by her "did someone say ADVENTURE?" attitude.
Harley recently spent some time in foster care, where she showed just how sweet and cuddly she can be. Her foster carer had this to say:
"Harley is a good doggo. She's welcoming with people, easy to have around, and absolutely adores her crate - she'll nap in there during the day and sleep peacefully all night. She loves her walks, soft toys, and cuddling on the couch in the evening. And the soft patch of fur on her head? It's irresistible. When she wants affection, she'll lean right into you and melt your heart."
So if you're looking for a young, clever, loveable dog with all the zest of a toddler on a sugar rush-and the snuggles to match-Harley just might be your girl. Come meet her and get ready to fall in love (and maybe invest in some more squeaky toys).
