About Ernie - 11 Week Old Staffy X
Ernie is the snuggliest lil love bug in all of Newcastle. He is looking for his family to grow up and the best life!
A cheerful and friendly pup, Ernie meets many people everyday and greets them warmly and loves to soak up their pats and cuddles.
The smallest of his litter, because he was too polite to push in front at meal time. He is growing up strong and healthy. Ernie has a stunning white coat with a black eye patch.
His brother Bert is his best friend at the moment and they spend all their time snuggling together then having a wrestle. He would love to be adopted to a home with a friendly dog to show him the ways otherwise we need owners who are home more often than not, to teach and guide him through puppyhood.
Ernie needs to be welcome inside when people are home, and to sleep inside at least until fully grown. You need secure fencing with no small gaps. He can't go to rural fencing (eg: mesh or wire).
He will grow into a medium sized dog. His parents are American Staffy X and have lovely natures. We always recommend puppy-training classes to give your new family member the best start in life. All dogs and puppies need plenty of affection, exercise, and training.
All about Ernie:
- Loving Little Lad, loves a cuddle
- Playful with his brother
- Inside dog until fully grown
- Needs commitment to puppy training
- Must be returned to a DRN approved vet at 5/6 months old for desexing
Ernie's adoption fee is $700 which includes his desexing when he is old enough. It also includes his first two vaccinations. He has been treated for fleas and worms, and is microchipped.
Ernie is in care in Fullerton Cove, NSW. Since he is not yet desexed, he is only available for adoption to the Lower Hunter region (Newcastle, Lake Macquarie, Port Stephens, Maitland and Cessnock) plus Central Coast and Sydney. He'll need to be returned to one of our approved vets for desexing when he's 5 to 6 months old.

can verify that your home and yard are suitable for the pet you've applied for.
(3) After that we will arrange for you to meet the pet, usually at the foster
carer's home, nearby park or your home.
(4) If both sides agree, then you can pay for and adopt your new family
member! The two week trial begins on the day of adoption.
