Looking for new home for Purebred Kelpie on East Coast

Due to financial restraints, we have had to leave our home and farm in Maine. The sheep were easy to give away, the dog much less so.

Luke is a 7 year old purebred kelpie. Good temperment, not great with young kids (he likes to herd them), playful guy. Purebred with tatoos and papers for proof. We got him from a woman who had trained him for agility and he does not like that, but he does love frisbee! So he does have good manners and excellent instinct on sheep and goats, but chickens are his real love. He can put away a bunch of free ranging hens in no time! AND, he's never put his mouth on one of them. In fact, one of his favorite games was to herd the girls into a group and then be let loose to go scatter them. The hens adored and respected him.

I can be reached at jclarkmello@yahoo.com. This is the hardest move I've had to make, but he is miserable having to be on leash or in a kennel.
