Pedro needs to catch a break. In his 6 years he has been moved around a fair bit and now deserves a permanent, loving home. Pedro is a great dog who loves people and receiving fuss and attention. He gets on with everyone. This sweet guy is also very dog social and is fostered in a multi-dog foster home. The only time Pedro gets a bit tetchy is when his food is put out: nothing dramatic but he softly growls. Feeding him apart from other dogs will prevent this happening.
Pedro has come into our care very overweight. He needs to lose almost half of the weight he's currently carrying. He is now on a strict diet for his health and quality of life. His carer can advise his new owners on management of his diet and exercise.
Pedro enjoys a dip in the river in this hot weather! He also enjoys a stroll on his foster carer's property. On lead Pedro can be a bit of a puller at first but nothing that can't be corrected with a little work. When he feels unsure he sometimes puts the brakes on; he does get better with a little patience and routine, and also if he's on his walk with another doggy friend. He also likes to play fetch in the yard.
Pedro is a dog who thrives on the companionship of people. His ideal household will have someone home a lot of the time and he will be inside at the heart of his new family.
This boy is truly beautiful and once he's back to his optimal weight he can really start to enjoy life to the full. If you'd like to apply for Pedro and can give him a loving, active home, we'd love to hear from you.
MEDICAL NOTES
Adoption fee includes vet check, vaccination, microchip (including transfer of ownership fee), flea and worm treatment and sterilisation.
Pedro is currently overweight and his new owner will need to commit to his diet to ensure he loses the excess weight which is currently detrimental to his health and quality of life.
ADOPTION NOTES
Our adoption process for the successful applicant includes a meet and greet, (including your own dog if applicable), a home check (or photos of your yard and fencing to be supplied to us if not local), and a two week trial period to ensure your chosen dog is the right fit for your home.
All adoption fees must be deposited into our SAFE Bunbury bank account in full before adoption trial starts (we cannot accept cash). The Adoption Agreement will be emailed to the selected applicant in advance of meeting your chosen dog.
After the adoption trial period has been completed we arrange transfer of ownership of the dog's microchip to the new owner, and email out the vet records.
