About Gadget
Gadget is an extremely handsome country boy that has made his way into the big city!
He’s been loving his time being a spoilt city dog and has taken the sea change in his stride. Having just had his first birthday, Gadget is still young and exuberant... he’s a wild child and a cheeky little piranha but the most affectionate, sweet, cuddle bug ever and we would consider him a “Velcro dog”.
Gadget is on the taller side for a kelpie and is (with no bias) very good looking! He does have some dog reactivity and whilst this is improving, it will require a committed family to continue on with his training.
MY IDEAL HOME: Gadget would suit a fun loving, active person/couple/family who love to go on adventures. Being a working line Kelpie, he is a ball of energy and needs someone who can satisfy his drive, however, he is extremely well crate trained and calms down almost immediately once he’s in his safe space.
MY ENERGY LEVEL: Gadget is a high drive, high energy working dog however, he will definitely forgive you if you miss a walk or two! He does require both physical and mental stimulation, a walk around the block is not really going to suffice but engaging in some fun breed specific games would go down a treat.
MY SUITABILITY TO CHILDREN: Being a young, high energy dog, who is still working on regulating his over excitement, Gadget would best suit a family without young kids and with prior experience with a high drive working dog.
MY SUITABILITY TO CATS AND DOGS: Gadget would do best in a home with no other dogs, however he can be okay with other dogs if managed properly. We’ve observed him being friendly and curious with other animals like birds and cats.
Adoption details
We ask all people looking to adopt to fill in our adoption enquiry form.
For Cats: https://form.jotform.co/92940837256870
For Dogs: https://form.jotform.co/80677377750872
Please use these links rather than the 'Enquire' button on the pet's PetRescue profile to streamline your enquiry.
Our foster carer will contact you when we receive your application to arrange a time for you to meet with their foster pet.
We want your adoption through Maggie's to be a good experience so we will occasionally suggest a different cat or dog that may suit your situation better and the needs of the individual pet.
All our pets leave for their new homes on a two week trial. At the end of the trial, we will transfer the microchip into your name and provide you with the pets vet certificates. Once you receive the Certificate of Identification from council, your adoption will be complete.
Please consider, that a Maggie's Pet is a pet for Life, before adopting.
