Dizzy At not quite 2 years of age, our darling Dizzy girl is just a delight to be around with her fuzzy puppy fur and joyful nature. A happy and active girl, she enjoys running about the yard with her foster doggy siblings and loves the company of other dogs. She enjoys a swim in her foster families fish pond and a game of chase the ball and run away with it. Most of all Dizzy loves people, all people, but especially children and is frequently found lying on her back with a group of children around her enjoying belly rubs. After a busy day of getting as many pats as possible and a leisurely walk, Dizzy is very content to curl up in her bed with her favourite teddy. Dizzy is a quick learner and is learning manners around bench surfing, but is house trained, walks well on the leash and travels well in the car. Dizzy would benefit from the company of a doggy companion. She has not been home alone, so it is difficult to gauge how she would go being left alone for long periods. Dizzy is not cat friendly. Dizzy gets around remarkably well with her foster carers not really noticing how this reduced sight impacts her life. Dizzy uncomfortably runs up and down stairs, runs around the yard playing with the other dogs without bumping into anything and navigates very well on walks. She is frightened of loud traffic sounds, and would be well suited to a quite residential or rural area.

When Racing 2 Rehome was contacted about a large boy who had been bought into the local veterinary clinic with not a lot of prospects, we welcomed him into our care with open arms. His name was 2442, so he was quickly renamed Marvin. Marvin is certainly marvellous! Our foster carer we had in mind went down to meet him with his own staffy girl Roxy, just to make sure they were the right fit, and a beautiful friendship blossomed, Marvin has started his new life with his foster Dad and foster sibling Roxy. Well they are having a ball! Marvin is a Staghound x Kelpie we think, he is a large boy, 35kg, black with a splash of white on his chest. He is an affectionate and happy boy! To say Marvin is playful, is only one adjective to describe him, he is also energetic, full of energy, "puppy like" (he is only around 16 months old), friendly and very clever! Marvin and Roxy run around together in their backyard, Marvin of course can easily get away, but Roxy sometimes takes a short cut and can be on his tail again, they have the best time and enjoy each others company. He was taught to shake your hand and drop in his previous home and is house trained. He will let you know when he needs to go outside and also now uses the doggy door at his foster home, he is a quick learner! He jumps into the car by himself and loves sight seeing, the world is a marvellous place for dear Marvin, he just gets so excited of the thought of going for a walk, and his foster Dad has found a halti to be a very useful item to help Marvin calm a little as he does tend to be a strong walker. As Marvin is living with a smaller dog at the moment, with careful introduction we feel he would be fine with small dogs who like larger dogs. Large dogs would also be good company for Marvin as well and it would be a benefit for Marvin to have a canine friend to play with, one with lots of energy as well as he just wants to play all the time! Full time workers would be fine as long as Marvin has a canine friend, but Marvin has not been assessed with cats so no kitties in his new home. As you can imagine, being as full of energy and large as he is, Marvin would be best suited to a family with teenage aged children and older. He would be also happy with a smaller family unit like a couple or a single person too! He would be your best friend! Marvin has a healthy appetite and loves to chew on a bone, he likes to also chew on his favourite toy, a basketball! Marvin is such a loving boy, and loves his foster Dad and foster sister and has settled well, sleeps through the night and enjoying life! He will make a wonderful addition to a family willing to include Marvin into their daily activities. He will make you laugh and you will fall in love with this big beautiful boy!

Not cat friendly/small dog friendly Full time workers / Part time Workers Family with Primary School aged children or Couples, Singles. Jenny is a shiny black gal with a splash of white on her chest, she is nearly 4 years of age and is just the most loving girl. She has settled into 'pet life' beautifully, she just loves her human friends and has discovered toys are a pretty good thing as well, especially her beloved Teddy Bear. She is the proverbial 'couch potato' as well and likes to lay down, her head on the pillow next to you or on her own having a lovely snooze. Jenny has taken to pet life like a duck to water. Jenny loves her foster Mum and Dad so much, so a family who around most of the time, so part time workers would be ideal, but in saying that, Jenny is such a relaxed chilled out gal, a house with full time workers would be fine as well. Jenny would be an ideal only pet as she isn't particularly keen on cats or small dogs, so a house without these is a must. Jenny is fully house trained, she is so clever, she picks up instructions so quickly, just so willing to please. She walks well on a loose lead and travels well in the car as well. At the moment, Jenny is living in a unit at the moment with a small back yard and isn't really bothered by this, so we feel she would be well suited to a smaller dwelling. Jenny is such a happy, chilled out girl, just loves cuddling and playing. Jenny can't wait to have her 'forever' home, she will win your heart with her sweet personality and love. Even though Jenny is situated in Bendigo at the moment, this isn't a barrier for Melbourne based people as we can work out for her to come to the city.
