Her Majesty Dogmad Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 (edited) I've been asked to help owners rehome a 4 yr old Springer male. All vet work done, good with other dogs but living with young children under 4 yrs of age and not coping with being poked and pulled around so no children. He is fine in a single dog home, a consummate ball chaser and can be exercised that way as he wears himself out. He's housetrained and all vet work done. If anyone is interested, please pm me. Owners have done their best but he needs a different home. Edited September 29, 2018 by Her Majesty Dogmad Change of rehoming status 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Spotted Devil Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 Working or show lines? It would be good to give the new owners some training/exercise guidelines as constant ball chasing can be disastrous. Physically and psychologically. I have info on my website if that helps - in my signature. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Two Best Dogs! Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 This facebook group has a couple of people looking for mature age springers. Maybe could post on there and see if anyone interested? https://www.facebook.com/groups/317325918366836/ Bonus: People in this group tend to post updates on dogs, so can see how he goes in long run 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He will only suit a very active owner, he's a working breed, so plenty of space in the yard and time with an owner. 3 other dogs could be too much.

Judy and Kev Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Hi VERY interested in this fella!! I have had Springers for 15 years...ADORE them!!!!!!! (NOT breeders...just a LOVE of them) We have just lost one of our 3 year old girls....so tragic and we are completely heartbroken!!! We lost our 14 yr old boy a few months ago as well. We now have one beautiful Springer girl who we adopted. She is 3 now and black and white, delightful stunner! We also have a beautiful Staffie who we adopted as well many years ago. We live on 5 acres with 2 dams in Haddon, Vic, just outside of Ballarat. I am a member of several Springer communities, and have even travelled to UK & Europe to visit our Springer human friends and dogs. Our fur bubbas go on walkies several times a day, and the ball is a great game in their huge enclosed yard! WOULD LOVE to re-home this young man!!!!!!!! If there's a chance and you want to know more, please PM me. Cheers :D 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Spotted Devil Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 Hi @Judy and Kev Hope things turn out for the best. I’m not sure if you’ve had working Springers before. If not feel free to check out my website to give you some info as they can be a shock to the system if you aren’t used to them. Great dogs though - not that I’m biased http://www.thornfield.com.au/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Judy and Kev Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 Hi Spotted Devil. Always had benches, but many friends have field/working springers. I know they are full of energy and need exercise, and usually great at agility. We walk them here....actually they run...and they sniff around on their "missions"!!!! If it is meant to, it shall be. We drive to near Sydney to adopt our Daisy, so no biggy :D 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
