About Cairo ~ 4mo Blue Kelpie (On Trial 05/01/21)
Kelpie lovers, this one is for you! Cairo is a striking 4 month old Blue Kelpie. With her huge ears and gorgeous eyes, Cairo catches your attention instantly and then your heart with her affectionate and playful personality.
Cairo is a typical young kelpie - confident, intelligent and has plenty of energy to burn. She loves to run around the backyard with her foster brothers and chase her favourite toys around the house.
In her short time in foster care, Cairo has learned to sit, lay down and watch, all of which she picked up very quickly. She is also learning stay, wait and shake, and needs a family committed to her ongoing training.
Being a high energy working breed, Cairo requires plenty of daily exercise and mental stimulation. She walks well on a lead and is perfecting her recall, although this still needs further training. She loves frozen kongs and enrichment toys that keep her mind entertained. At the end of the day, Cairo wants nothing more than to snuggle up to you on the lounge or sit at your feet to spend time with you.
Cairo loves other dogs, and her ideal family would either have another playful dog to keep her company, have someone home most of the time or she would love to tag along to work with you! She needs an active family, and would be a great running buddy or dog sports athlete when she is a little older. Cairo has met a cat and was interested and playful but gave the cat space.
Cairo requires minimum 5ft secure colorbond/timber fencing with no gaps. She is not suited to rural/mesh style fencing as she is smart enough to climb it.
As Cairo is not yet desexed, she is only available for adoption to Newcastle, Lake Macquarie, Central Coast and Port Stephens as she will need to be returned to our vet for desexing when she's approximately 5 months old. Unfortunately this means that we will not allow interstate or out of area adoption.
To register your interest in adopting Cairo, you can fill out the adoption questionnaire here https://tinyurl.com/drnadopt or for more information please contact Darcy at darcy.drn@outlook.com
Cairo’s adoption fee is $600 and she is desexed, microchipped and vaccinated, and she's been treated for fleas and worms. Cairo is currently in foster care in Maitland area, NSW.
