More about Pompom
** 10/12 Update: Pompom has been adopted and is on his trial period with his new family**
🐾 Meet Pom Pom – A Bundle of Cuteness with a Big Heart! 🐾
Pom Pom is a 6.5-year-old Border Collie X who’s joined us from the Christchurch City Council Animal Shelter. With his short, stocky frame and medium size, he’s absolutely bursting with cuteness!
✨ About Pom Pom:
He’s previously lived with another female dog, and they were perfect companions, so he would be well-suited to a home with a friendly female dog. While he doesn’t enjoy the company of male dogs, he adores people and is wonderfully cuddly with his owners, happily settling into family life.
He would do best in a home with dog-savvy children aged 15 or older, and he may be able to live with confident cats given some initial management while he settles in. He will also require secure, full fencing to keep him safe.
Pompom walks lovely on the lead, he can get distressed in close proximity to other male dogs so will need some continued training around this.
Gentle, affectionate, and looking forward to comfort and companionship, he’s ready for a cosy retirement filled with love.
If you’re looking for a sweet companion who’s past the puppy chaos but still has plenty of charm, Pom Pom could be the perfect match. 🐾❤️
