Border Collie Looking for New Home

I am in the sad position of having to rehome my beloved border collie. Unfortunately my situation has changed, relationship breakdown, I've had to downsize to a tiny flat with no garden, and I am no longer able to give her the life she deserves.
She's from a working farm in Wales. We are her second owners, her first owner died suddenly and planned to train her in agility competitions. I haven't trained her in agility but she is VERY driven to chase rats, foxes, and vermin, she isn't interested in sheep.
She is nearly 3 years old, gets on well with people and dogs but not suitable for kennel life, she has failed assessments at rescue centres because she's too spooked by the kennels there. I am on the waiting lists for border collie rescue centres.
However, I think she would thrive in a home/farm where she has space and a job to do, maybe something to do with vermin? I am sure she would be easily trained and would make a fantastic addition to any home/farm.
If anyone can suggest somewhere else to post/try to find her a home please do let me know. I want to give her to a good home with people who have time to give her a job to keep her busy.
Thank you so much,
Kim.

Have you tried Protecting Preloved Border Collies? All dogs going foster homes for assesment before rehoming. Very good rescue. You'll find them on Facebook and their website.
