URGENT – must have save by 5pm 21/2 Update 21/2 – Safe with ARF
This lovely boy although he doesnt seem to have had any training as such he was not difficult at all to handle a really lovely dog that has a lot of potential
URGENT – needs save by 5pm 21/2 Update 21/2 – Safe with Adopt a Rescue Dog
This lovely old girl is a little bit anxious about being in here she is a lovely old girl that is looking for the quiet life. She was taken off lead and she happily walked along the path just in front of the handler. She did get distracted by a gentleman that came to the fence and wagged her tail at him
URGENT – must have save by 5pm 21/2
This bloke is very aloof and didn’t initially engage with handler. He was not particularly interested in other dogs, he sniffs and then just walks away, he met a few dogs and did the same with all of them. He would obviously need some work on the resource guarding that he showed us.
Cindy is a terrific girl. She is so loving and affectionate and loves nothing more to lie beside you (or up on the chair with you if allowed .. lol)
Having my own adoptee Charlie I don’t have Cindy inside with us at night after bed-time as that is Charlie’s space but otherwise she is at my side whenever I am at home. After their night-time wee-walk Cindy quite happily gets into her bed outside in our pergola area. I keep all our dogs locked in at night due to the fact that we are in a Koala habitat and also have lots of possums about. She is house-trained and even in her night area I have never had a mess.
Cindy attached herself to me within a few days of her previous foster carer dropping her off. She was a little bit unsettled at first and had we not had good fencing may have gone looking for her previous carer. To be on the safe side I would suggest that anyone adopting Cindy keep her in a secure area when they aren’t around for the first few weeks. Apart from that she is content just to sit at your feet or spend time outside chasing a ball or toy and LOVES tug-a-war with her knotted rope. We are still working on bringing the ball back.
She comes immediately when called and now sits on command. We have found her very obedient and quick to learn. Cindy would suit a family with any age children as she has never shown any sign of aggression and loves nothing more than to play. For her age she is quite mature and we don’t have problems with her chewing things up, pulling washing off the line (she is actually kept in our washing area if I am out) or digging holes. However being an active breed I have always made sure she has plenty of play time, exercise and mental stimulation.
She would be awesome with dog obedience and agility.
She is a very alert protective watchdog with a good bark.
She is wormed, micro-chipped, vaccinated, heart-worm treated and has now been de-sexed.
Cindy deserves a loving home with a human she can give love back to.
