About George
Handsome George is a beautiful pup. He gets on well with the large dog in his foster home and is doing really well with basic obedience, already learning to sit for treats. This boy is a gentle and quite placid pup with the softest fur!
George will likely be a good medium-large sized dog when fully grown as his breed mix includes Catahoula (Mum) and potentially some Labrador x larger breed dog (Dad). He loves to play with people and toys. When older he will need daily exercise.
It will be super important for George to be socialised with other dogs once fully vaccinated, so that he grows up into a social, friendly adult who is relaxed meeting new dogs. Puppy classes are ideal for this (there are classes for pups who have not yet completed all vaccinations too, generally in vet clinics).
George is fostered in a family home so is used to kids, cats and another dog. He is not yet toilet trained.
Before applying for a pup, please remember that adopting a puppy into your home is a big commitment. As they grow, puppies require daily exercise, positive and varied socialisation outside the home (to help them become comfortable and manageable around new people, dogs, animals and situations), training, grooming and playtime. When applying, please ensure all residents in your home are on board, and consider your work hours, holidays, and how busy your personal life is. Puppies will need someone who is home for most of the day with regular input into playtime/training especially in those first six months after adoption.
Please also check with your landlord if renting as we may ask for proof of permission to keep a dog.
If you can offer this beauty of a puppy a loving, stable and active home, please complete our SAFE Bunbury application form as follows:
