About Gypsy Falko
TO APPLY FOR ADOPTION PLEASE SEND IN APPLICATION FORM AVAILABLE BELOW:
https://www.victoriandogrescue.org.au/about-vicdrg/adoption-and-foster-application-forms.html/
Gypsy is a lovely girl who has so much to live for. She originally came from a puppy farm and is looking forward to a life that every dog deserves; one full of love, fun and a safe place to rest her head. Gypsy is an independent soul, happy in her own company but she also loves her people.
Gypsy does well with structure and routine. She will benefit from ongoing lead and obedience training which will provide a good mental outlet and help build her confidence with overwhelming and new environments where she feels unsure. Gypsy doesn't like being picked up, but does enjoy scratches on her back and ears. She is house trained.
An ideal home for Gypsy will provide a calm and relaxed environment with adults or teenagers, sixteen plus. Gypsy is fearful of children. She doesn’t engage and becomes stressed, finding their energy overwhelming. Despite her fears, she has not shown any aggression at all. Gypsy may be able to live with a calm, non-engaging dog with a similarly calm temperament given they are provided a good introduction and time to get to know each other.
Are you the special human/s who will show Gypsy how wonderful life can be and allow her personality to shine? If so, we would love to hear from you.
No cats for Gypsy.
Thank you to Liv Morison of Liv Morison photography for the fantastic

All our dogs are desexed, C5 vaccinated with intranasal, microchipped, wormed, and flea treated. All necessary vetwork such as dentals, surgery, eye treatment are also carried out. We are no longer heartworm testing as we have not had one positive test since we began in 2006. If a dog comes to us on heartworm treatment this is continued.

Adoption details
We are a community fostercare network, not a shelter, and our dogs and cats are cared for in private homes. Note that we are very careful where we rehome our dogs and cats and we have an intensive process. If you want a quick turnaround we are not the group for you. If you seem like a good match for the dog of your choice we will organise a telephone chat, a meet and greet and a property check. We offer free assistance for six weeks for any issues, a lifetime takeback policy with full refund of the adoption fee, and will always be available to offer advice.
We care for our dogs and cats and we want you to as well. We know that genuine applicants have no trouble with this process and understand that if we refuse you a dog or cat, it is because you are not the best match for that pet.
Our commitment to the dogs and cats in our care is total and we treat each one as if we are passing on a family pet. This may not suit you so we point out that there are equally great dogs and cats available in pounds, shelters and with other rescue groups.
If you are still interested, please download an application form from our website:

Please note that we do not take/make telephone calls prior to receiving an application.
Commonly asked questions and their answers are provided when you email us. Unfortunately we usually will not have time to reply to enquiries in more detail and will give priority to completed applications over enquiries. Priority will also be given to typed applications which are easier for us to read and to copy relevant parts.
We look forward to receiving your application.
