Meet Winkle, a lovable Kelpie mix male pup with a heart full of joy and energy. At just 12 weeks old and weighing around 7kgs, Winkle is one adorable bundle of joy set to grow up to an estimated 15kgs. This little pup has his health and wellness taken care of, boasting all his necessary treatments: de-sexed, microchipped, vaccinated, and wormed.
He has AMAZING recall for a pup. He will stay near the back door even with the deck gate open. Makes no attempt or even shows interest in fence boundaries or gaps.
With his friendly nature and unwavering enthusiasm for life, Winkle is learning the ins and outs of being dog-friendly. He's in the process of being trained to be social with other dogs, but he's already a superstar when it comes to being child-friendly. This sweet pupper comforts his human siblings with his gentle and secure presence.
He has an impeccable sense of smell. And often gets distracted chasing moths and butterflies. Not suitable around birds mice or pocket pets.
As he's still a young pup, Winkle has not yet been introduced to cats. Hence, his friendliness towards our feline friends is still unknown. Winkle would thrive in a home with a normally secure fence where he can safely play to his heart's content in the yard.
Winkle resides in Logan, and his adoption fee is $695 — a small price for a lifetime of love, laughter, and companionship. This charming little pup is ready to meet his new family and start making beautiful memories.
Invite Winkle into your life, and prep yourself for countless nose boops, wagging tails, and puppy eyes that melt your heart. Your everyday will be a tail-wagging adventure with Winkle as a part of your family.

🐾 Details about your family
🏡 Is your home quiet/relaxed or loud/busy? (Particularly important for timid cats). Ask questions, to show your are interested in the animals ell being.
Add questions into the application.
Fill out the profiles of your current pets if you have any. Understanding the personality of resident cats and dogs will help rescue organisations or foster carers determine if the pet will adjust to your surroundings.
Remember to be respectful and kind in your enquiries. A simple greeting can go a long way! Behind that screen is a real hooman, who loves and cares for the pet you're enquiring about just as much as you will!
Be open and honest - rescues prefer having as much information as they can about potential adopters.
An adoption fee applies to each animal to cover only the basic veterinary procedures, and each adoption goes out on a 21 day settling in period, if the dog is returned in this period, and you’ve spoken to our trainer for assistance, and the dog is returned in good health, mentally and physically, and all their belongings and paperwork are returned, then we provide a refund less $50 admin fee. This is not a trial, but in case of any unknown or unforeseen circumstances.
