Beautiful Rough Collie puppies in Westmeath - Parents Are Real Pets

We have 5 lovely Rough Collie puppies available for sale in Athlone. They are affectionate little ones two months old and have been vaccinated and wormed, ensuring they are ready for new homes. The Rough Collie is known for its intelligence and loyalty, making it an excellent family pet. They are also recognised for their beautiful, long coats and gentle temperament, which makes them great companions for children and other animals.

This breed typically requires regular grooming due to their thick fur, and they thrive in environments where they can engage in physical activities. Rough Collies are highly trainable and enjoy being mentally stimulated, so they benefit greatly from obedience training and interactive playtime. If you're looking for a devoted and friendly addition to your family, this breed of puppy could be the perfect fit.
