Meet Queenie

Queenie is a small Kelpie cross with a gentle nature who is searching for a calm home where she can continue learning that the world is a safe place.

At around two years old, Queenie has already shown how resilient she can be. While she is still nervous, she is steadily improving in foster care and beginning to trust the people around her. With time and patience, she forms a loyal bond with those who care for her.

Rescuers describe Queenie as sensitive and gentle, with a medium energy level. Because she can be shy, she would suit a quiet household where owners are willing to give her the time and stability she needs to adjust. Secure fencing is required. She is reported to be suitable with children, while her compatibility with cats is currently unknown.

Her veterinary care is fully up to date. Queenie has been vaccinated, desexed and has completed her council transfer.

The rescue operates as a foster-based organisation rather than a traditional shelter, meaning animals are cared for in private homes until they are adopted. This allows dogs like Queenie to begin building confidence in a home environment while they wait for their permanent family.

Queenie’s adoption fee is $400. Interested? Send a message with your name and phone number to Bowen-Collinsville Pet Rescue Inc.
