If you are interested in adopting a dog that does not say it can be homed with a cat and wish us to cat test please let us know and we will be happy to do this.

22-01-25 Nat is a sweet little lady who has come from her breeder to find a loving home. She loves her kennel friends and really enjoys playing with other dogs in the play yard. She is inquisitive and full of curiosity but is easily startled and very worried if she is handled too quickly so because of this we feel it would be better for her to live in a calmer home without children where she can adjust and settle at her own pace. She will need a kind resident dog in her new home to show her all about home life and give her the reassurance she needs. She will need to learn all about house training and how to walk on a lead and will need to go to the groomers often. We dont think it will take Nat long to trust and bond with someone, she just needs som ehome comforts to help her blossom. She has a PETS passport travel doc.

18-02-25 UPDATE
Our beautiful girl Nat got moved over to my section shortly after arriving so I could work with her on her fear of being handled. I have to say, I was expecting her to be a lot more frightened than what she was after reading her first write up! She is uncomfortable with being picked up yes, but I haven’t had any problems with her so far and I’ve picked her up for various different reasons quite a few times. I’ve even taken her into the grooming room to give her a little brush and to trim the hair around her eyes. I’ve found as long as she’s in the back of her kennel and I go slow and gentle with her, she mostly just stays still. I would say she does still need a home that has experience with scared dogs though, just because she is going to need a lot of reassurance and guidance for a while when she gets home I think.
Nat is a really sweet girl who is actually trying very hard to be brave. Food is definitely the way to her heart so this is the main thing I’ve been using to try to win her over. I spend a lot of time sitting on the floor in her kennel or in the yard with her and she’s more than happy to approach me to take treats from me, and give me little kisses and sniffs.
It may take a long time for Nat to resemble anything of a “normal dog” and she will need to learn absolutely everything, including how to walk on a lead and being house trained. It will need to be a slow process with her not to overwhelm her, so her adopters will need to be patient with her and understand all of her worries and fears. In the right home, I do think she has the potential to blossom into a very happy little girl … it’s just going to take some time! Please give her a chance!

Nat's transport is sponsored by Gail Jones through their donation for the Gift of Life. This donation has meant we were able to rescue and bring her to us to find her forever family and to be loved the way she was meant to. Thank you.

Please read our information on ADOPTING EX-BREEDING DOGS before you apply.
 

PLEASE NOTE: We nearly always home dogs who have come from breeders where there is ALREADY A RESIDENT DOG living in the house. They have usually never lived in a house before and are only used to canine company. They usually get their confidence and learn faster with another dog to copy from. This also helps with house training and learning how to walk on a lead. They will make lovely pets but do need a lot of love, time and patience. If the ex breeding dog you are interested in can be an only dog it will say so in its write up. Please read our information on ADOPTING EX-BREEDING DOGS before you apply.
