Zalah

Siberian Husky

Looking for love

Once upon a time there was a fair maiden, her eyes as blue as the brightest of summer day skies, yet her complexion as white as the newly fallen snow in the middle of the coldest winter. She was what you might call a contradiction who was just so perfect to look upon. As with every furrytail, the maiden finds trouble that she must overcome with her strength and love of adventure, and this tale is no different. Our heroine Zalah here was not content within the walls of her home, they were nowhere near the 6ft walls she needs to contain her wild spirit. So, one day she found the courage to climb the wall and was excited that she now had the whole world at her paws. Well, that was until one day her plans of freedom and adventure were foiled and she found herself locked away in the bars of the jail she heard her cell mates refer to as ‘The Pound’. It tuned out that the pound wasn’t so bad. They gave her food and let her into the small yard to play sometimes, but it wasn’t the new life she had imagined for herself. One day, peering out through the bars she heard whispers that she was getting out! She paced her cell and did some donuts and very small zoomies at the thought. And then, the cell door opened and there was a big brown male dog called Thunder. She was a little worried as the sounds the sky Thunder makes scares her. But she needn’t have worried, Thunder was there with his people and he told her that he was her new ‘SHAMROQ Foster Brother’, whatever that meant. But who cares, she was outta there!!! So off home with Thunder and his family she went. She loved it there but knew she was destined for more. Zalah knew that there was her very own home and family out there waiting for her to find them. One who had another dog her sized to play with, but who knew not to touch her food! She dreamt of the new family who loved adventure, walks, car rides and had a spot on the couch just for her. They would shower her with love, cuddles and more new squeaky toys than she could ever imagine. They would be fun people and if there were kids, she would love them too but she would avoid the very small ones just in case they touched her food or tugged on her collar. Neighbourhood cats would avoid her yard just in case her desires to chase kicked in. Zalah still waits patiently for her Happy Furever After, but it is so close she can feel it! She is happy to be with her foster family for now but knows her perfect forever family of her own is coming soon. It’s destiny!!

Bamboo

Amstaff x Bull Terrier x Siberian Husky

Looking for love

Strong, resilient, versatile and can get a bit ratty – yup that is Bamboo! And it sounds just like me! If you haven’t cottoned on yet, my name is Bamboo. I am one sweet little puppy who is here to brighten up your day. Lucky for you, I am on the lookout for my very own happy furever after family and you might just be my chosen ones. What is it that you need to be my people you ask? Well, being a puppy I am quite mouldable and have much to learn. Sometimes though genetics are just too strong to beat. An example of this are my paws of mass destruction. Yes, even at this tender young age I have learnt that if I tunnel out under the fence there is a whole big wide world out there to play in. For this reason, you will need secure fences that I can’t squeeze out and dig under and that are 5ft or higher and secure. I have been living with a Husky big sister and let me tell you, she can not keep up with my zoomies and play time. She tries but I would love a furbrother or sister who likes to play tug of war and tiggy. At this tender age I might even be able to be introduced to any small dogs or cats in the family. Puppies will be puppies so any of the hairless brothers or sisters should be 5 or older and ok with a bit of crazy bamboo in their face! Above all, the biggest thing on my list is a home with people who treat their puppies like any other member of the family. Inside the home is where it’s at and I only go outside under protest. There are no couches or comfy big beds outside you know! My family will be one where me and the fur sibling are invited most places they go, spend the weekends going on family adventures and come home to a round of tug of war over a squeaky toy in the lounge room while the big people are trying to watch TV. If you think you home is lacking some Bamboo, and you can tick all of my boxes, then please go to www.shamroq.org.au/adoption for the online form. Photos by Pup & Co Photography *What is a Desexing bond? We feel these pups should not be desexed until 6 months of age. At that time, SHAMROQ will arrange and pay for their desexing at a vet surgery of our choice. On completion of this, the desexing bond will be returned to the adopter. Desexing is compulsory and a signed agreement will be required.

Alaskan Malamute Mix

Looking for love

What do you get when you mix a Malamute, Boxer, Amstaff and Border Collie? Well you get meeeee!!!! You see one of my parents (for the purpose of this story, let’s say Mum) was a majestic Alaskan Malamute. Flowing hair and had the beauty and strength of an Amazon goddess. Sure she was headstrong and stubborn, but also was noble with a hint of cheek. She fell for a boy from the wrong side of the tracks. There was nothing purebred about him, he had a mixed heritage of muscle, working class lines with some goofiness and charisma all the same. There was just something about him. Imagine the story of Jack and Rose in Titanic if you will, without the icebergs and stuff. From my mother I have inherited my love of rough play and bounciness at my tender young age. For this reason, I won’t be suitable for any small children in the event I knock them over. But any children school aged or older will be fine. She also gave me these ears which as a tender pre-pubescent female, I hope I grow into!! If not then all the better to hear you and maybe ignore you with. That’s the Malamute gene too! I should point out that I have been taught some obedience in my foster home. I know how to sit and wait for my dinner until I am allowed to eat. Being in a house with 3 rowdy Huskies, it is every pup for themselves at dinner time! I am fed separate to prevent issues. At night I have my very own crate to sleep in and will happily curl up beside my foster sister if she lets me! My Dad’s mixed genes have brought me lots of good traits! I am social with all I meet, yet I haven’t met a cat yet so I can’t promise anything there. I must however have at least one other fur sibling who will play with me, that is non-negotiable! I have not yet shown any need to escape but am currently within solid 5ft fences. I am still a baby, so my mind has plenty of more learning to do! I eat my dinner from a green feeder to make me think and enjoy food puzzles and toys. The possibilities are endless! It is not just my mind that needs regular exercise, but I get lots of walks and plays at the local dog park to keep me fit and energetic! I am not really sure what breed you could call me, and I won’t pretend to be a designer dog by any means. But I am loving and fun and the perfect addition to any family that can meet my needs. If that could be you, please go to www.shamroq.org.au/adoption for our online form. We look forward to hearing from you! Photos by Charlotte Reeves Photography

Wish

Siberian Husky

Looking for love

If this were a fairytale, you might get three wishes, but in this story, you only get one. But believe me, that this one Wish is more than enough and the only one you will ever need! Cute as a button, full of energy with a zest for life, this Wish will be sure to make most of your dreams come true. So, you may have guessed, my name is Wish and I am on the hunt to grant one lucky family the pleasure of, well, me! My perfect family could be any combination of people and ages. But there are a few things on my checklist that I wish for. So here goes…. Another doggy friend at home. And not just any dog, but one who matches me in size, wit and playful energy. I’m your regular medium sized Husky, so I would like someone who can keep up with my love of zoomies and tug of war, without being too annoyed at my persistence should they not want to play when I do. You will have to feed us separate though and watch us around toys as sharing is something that I can find hard to do! I have met some cats, and well they didn’t like it when I chased them and bit them on the tail. I have the scratches to prove it. So, if you have any of them, we will need our own separate areas. I will need a family that is active and enjoys the great outdoors! I go for a run with my foster parents most days and if they are lazy, I go remind them that there is whole big wide world out there and it’s time to go see it! Of course, I am still a husky, so no offlead running, otherwise you are gonna have to run a whole lot more than you bargained for!! I should have been a PT, I tell ya! Keeping me fit and well exercised means that your yard and other items will live to see another day 😉 These little paws of mine can be very powerful when I put my mind to it, so I will need a fence that has no gaps and can’t be dug out under. High jump is not my strong suit though, so as long as they are 5ft and secure, I won’t be going over the top of them. As you can see, I am pretty flexible and love all people, but have a few things that are must haves to keep me safe and happy. Although I am great with everyone, any children in the home will need to be dog savvy, mainly due to my playfulness and the sharing toys thing. Do you think I might be the very dog you have been ‘Wishing’ for? If so please head to www.shamroq.org.au/adoption for my online adoption application! Photos by Owl Tree Marketing

Siberian Husky

Looking for love

I don’t really like to talk about me, but they tell me that I have to introduce myself, so I'll give it a go. You see, I'm a little bit unsure and anxious of many things in life, but SHAMROQ, with the help of my dedicated carers, has shown me some courage and confidence, so here goes. My world revolves around the attention and cuddles of my people. I've been around other large female dogs and they are alright I guess, but they're not allowed anywhere near my food or my people if it's my turn in the limelight – so I think ideally I'd like a home where I could be your one and only. Another large submissive girl might be OK, but we would need our own space at feeding time. I'm an inside dog, apart from at feed time when I have some time in the yard. I like to sleep by my people, just in case the bogeyman or one of those scary storms might jump out and get me. I'm OK as long as you're there to snuggle and reassure me. I can do kids, but ones that are a bit older and understand my boundaries will be best. Cats and small pocket pets should be avoided for their own safety! I've been well behaved lately, but do have a history of digging under fences. So just to be sure, fences should be a minimum of 5ft, secure and not able to be dug under. My current exercise regime consists of a daily jaunt of the neighbourhood. I get all excited on lead to start with, but will settle once we get into it. Swimming is becoming one of my new hobbies too! Something you should know is that recently I have been diagnosed with Spondylosis of the spine. Sounds scary, but it really isn't. It is being managed with medication and exercises and I've now got a new lease on life! If I could describe my perfect new family, it would be one where at least one of my people was always home to be with me. Someone who had the perfect spot for me right by the lounge and the bed and would take me for car rides. Sounds simple enough huh? I do have some quirks that we need to work on together, but as the expectant Queen Beyonce has so wisely told us, “If everything was perfect, you would never learn and you would never grow.” If you think you are my type of people and want to help me continue to flourish, then please go to http://www.shamroq.org.au/#!adoption/cfz3
