About Indi

Adoption Fee: $50
Australian Kelpie
Age: Young Adult
Sex: Female

Indi turned 2 in September 2020 & is a very cute little dog. She has been brought up on our farm and we were hoping by now she would fit in better. We have numerous animals which she does not chase unless they run. A couple of chooks wander loose in the yard with her & she does not bother them. If she meets a new chicken though & it runs, she is flat out after it. Same with the cats - we have one crafty one who slinks slowly past her & is okay but if any of the others come across Indi, she locks on & chases them. Indi has a beautiful, gentle nature but for some reason has not bonded with any of us. Usually, as soon as our farm dogs hear the tractor or motorbike start, they are there ready to go. Indi is not interested. She will sit with her eyes glued to the rabbit & guinea pig in the cage & not take any notice of the tractor. We have to keep her on a chain run so that she doesn't take off to the neighbour's houses where lately she has started chasing their geese. If we let her off now, she will hang around for about 10 mins, then is gone & we never know where to. It could be up in the paddock, sitting watching the cows, it could be to one of the neighbours, it could be chasing a roo etc in the bush or chasing our small flock of sheep. Even if we take her along for a run with the motorbike, after a short time she will bolt off away from us, not to be seen again for hours and hours. Therefore, we are having to keep her chained up constantly which makes us sad to see her so confined. She loves coming in the house & although we don't usually have our farm dogs inside, we have been letting her in at night to sit with us so she's not alone on the chain. We feel she may be happy with someone who has dogs in the house with them for company.
