Ahoy there! My name's Matey, a 1-year-and-7-month-old Australian Kelpie full of energy and spirit. Sadly I have spent the last year in care and am about to spend my second Christmas without a home or family to love and adore me. I have recently spend some time in foster care and loved having a family of my very own, it has made me realise exactly what I am missing.
I'm a guy who loves to be active and on the go, so a high-energy lifestyle suits me best. I'm looking for a human who's home most of the time, as I'm a bit of a social butterfly and I love company. Now, I'm not one for small talk – or small pets, for that matter. I'd do best in a single-dog household with no small pets around.
I have gained some life skills while I have been out in foster and have learned what a home is like and what my humans need from me, I would do best with a guardian who has experience with training dogs as I still have much to learn, but don't stress I am a smart boy who loves to please and learn. If you're someone who's 15 years or older and can provide me with the love and patience I need, then I promise to be your loyal companion in all your adventures.
Come say Ahoy to me, Matey, your potential new best friend! I've got my paw ready to shake on our future together.
