RSPCA NSW seeks retirement home for three-legged Border Collie
King, a Border Collie currently at the RSPCA NSW Hunter shelter, is seeking a permanent retirement home following a severe injury that required the amputation of one leg.
Due to his physical needs, the shelter is looking for a calm and predictable environment. Recommended accommodations include a single-level property with minimal stairs, non-slip floor runners, and an elevated feeding station. Because King can be sensitive to touch, the RSPCA suggests a patient family and a quiet household with children aged 15 or older.
As a Border Collie, King remains highly intelligent and requires mental stimulation through enrichment puzzles or interactive toys. While he is still building confidence around other dogs, he shows potential for canine companionship with proper introductions.
