DIGGER
Black & White Kelpie X
Meet Digger (D250597) - The Heart-Melter 💕
This gorgeous black-and-white boy has found himself in our care through no fault of his own. He’s a gentle, sensitive soul who just needs someone willing to take life at his pace.
He may be timid at first, but give him time, patience, and a little kindness, and he’ll start to blossom. He loves food (a lot!), which makes training easier, and he already knows how to sit when there are tasty treats involved. He’s also great on lead and will happily follow you around once he feels safe with you.
He’s fine with other dogs as long as introductions are slow and controlled. He’s not much into toys, but what he really wants is you — someone steady, patient, and experienced who can help him build confidence and learn the ropes.
This boy would thrive in a residential or rural home with a big yard to stretch his legs in. With time, training, and plenty of love, he’ll reward you with loyalty, trust, and companionship that’s truly special.
If you’re willing to offer patience, guidance, and a safe space to grow, this sweet boy is ready to follow you into his new life. 🐾💙
Please head to our website and complete an adoption questionnaire with photos of your secure yard and make Digger part of your family.
