About Zoom
Zoom is the sweetest little fellow around. He loves his people and will never pass up an opportunity to jump into your lap for some cuddles. When his foster carer stands in the kitchen, he will even take this chance to use her foot as a comfy pillow! Zoom is a bright and switched on puppy who has a happy and inquisitive nature. He loves to play, particularly tug of war with this favourite tuggie toy. He will also chase a ball around but can’t quite fit it in his mouth yet! Zoom will always choose his humans though, letting anyone pick him up and hold him like a baby in their arms for as long as they will have him.
Zoom was originally found with his mum and siblings under a house in rural NSW. He has since been in foster care with one of his siblings and 4 other dogs of various sizes and ages. This has given him a good start to his socialisation, but his new owners will need to continue to give him regular playdates with other known friendly dogs throughout his development. Zoom currently enjoys a good rumble and game of chasies with his sister. Although only 4.6kg now, he is expected to grow to a larger medium size (possibly around 20-25kg) and will need daily exercise to keep him healthy and happy throughout his life.
While in foster care, Zoom has been focusing on eating and playing but is now beginning his basic training. He is learning to sit and walk on a lead. Zoom and his sister are starting to sleep through the night without toileting and they have no problem travelling in the car. His new owners will need to be committed to continuing his training and exposure to the big wide world. Zoom’s mother was also rescued by us, and she has a beautiful temperament, getting along with everyone and every other animal she meets. In fact, she was so wonderful that her foster carers couldn’t bear to let her go and adopted her!
We will be looking for a dog experienced home for Zoom where he will be a much loved member of the family and included in the daily activities. He would do well in a home with another adult dog who is already fully trained and ready to be a great role model for him. Otherwise, he will be fine to live as an only dog with some guidance throughout the transition period from his new owners. Zoom’s love of people mean that we will prioritise a new home where his owners are home more often than not so that he can enjoy all the cuddles that he deserves.
Zoom should be allowed inside to be with the family and will need a warm comfy bed inside to sleep on at night. He is currently living with a cat and will be fine to live with other types of pets with continued training and guidance. Zoom is yet to meet children but would be fine to live with dog savvy children who are confident enough to deal with typical puppy behaviours. Zoom has all the signs of being a super addition to his new home. He will bring lots of love, happiness and fun with his very sweet little face.
If you would like to make this gorgeous little boy a part of your family, then please complete a Dog Adoption Enquiry form on the Fetching Dogs website as the first step. Please include plenty of details about your previous dog experience, current household members and the type of lifestyle you can offer Zoom.

This puppy will be adopted out under a desexing contract that will require the dog to be desexed by a given age. The cost of desexing will be included as part of the adoption fee. A $250 desexing bond will be payable in addition to the adoption fee and will be refunded upon proof of desexing. This process is further discussed with successful applicants.
Don't see a breed attached to one of our dogs? That's because we don't breed label dogs of unknown genetic history. We can't guess at breeds but that's okay, because we can tell you about the dog's individual personality, character, and behaviour.
