About Stanley ~ 4mo Kelpie X (On Trial 09/10/20)
You cannot get any cuter than this very handsome boy who’s name is Stanley. He is a male 4 month old kelpie x border collie x.
Stanley is still very much the puppy, eager to please, full of fun and loving life with his foster mum. All he wants to do is please and is super smart.
Stanley came into care without any training but is learning very quickly the commands of sit, stay, come and shake. It is early days and sometimes he loses concentration and does rolly pollys instead which is hilarious. He tends to be a bit jumpy and being a pup, likes to be a bit mouthy but he is so gentle. He just needs some redirection and positive training. We would recommend some puppy obedient training for this young fellow. He tries so hard and loves the attention so we are after someone committed to continuing his training.
Stanley has also just started crate training and is doing well. His toilet training needs a little direction but he is starting to pick it up. He will just need to be taken out after meals and a sleep. He is learning also that inside is calm time and outside is play time. The world to him is all very new and somethings scare him or he is unsure of but he is enjoying his walks.
Stanley loves his toys and especially enjoys a chew treat. He would love another friendly doggy friend to live with and learn from.
Stanley would suit a family with children 12 years+ wanting a dog to take to the beach and on outings. He needs to be part of the family and be allowed inside when someone is home. Currently he has been exposed to sleeping both inside in his crate and outside in a protected area.
Stanley is in foster care in Cooks Hill NSW (Suburb of Newcastle NSW) and cannot wait to meet his new family. If Stanley is who youve been searching for, please email Sharron sstudley3@bigpond.com with any questions. You can also fill out the adoption questionnaire here https://tinyurl.com/drnadopt.
