About Hercules
Hi, My name is Hercules and I'm ready and waiting for my life adventures to begin!!!
I am a 9-week-old Moodle x Chihuahua (Moodle is a Maltese x toy poodle).
My mum came into care from a breeder and my siblings and I were a surprise for the rescue.
Our mum is in care as well and the rescue has said that they will ensure no babies for any of us moving forward.
My mum is a Moodle and our dad is a Chihuahua
I currently weigh 1.74kgs
So anyways my mum cooked us in her belly and when she said we were pure perfection we were born! Our names are Hercules, Thor, Zeus and Xena. Our foster mum said we needed big bold names to match our personalities!
So a few practical things to get out of the way before we discuss more
1. Yes all our bios are the same really – because we are all 8 week old pups still forming our personalities and cheekiness
2. Yes you can apply to meet more than just me just put the names on the application – just know that only one of us can be adopted per family so there is no littermate issues
3. We leave care at 12 weeks of age
4. Mum is safe with the rescue and they did the last litter desexing program on her so no more babies for our mum – she Is going up for adoption very soon as well.
I have one sister and two brothers and our foster mum says each of us have our quirks and personalities – but they are only starting to come out now so she can chat with anyone who has a meet and greet about us.
We love to have a cuddle with our human and then also to play - we have heard that Bunnings now sells dog toys and beds so we can always come with you and help you shop! Shame Kmart doesn't do that or think how much fun we could have!
My siblings and I play some times gently, sometimes rough and either my mum or my foster mum has to step in and remind us we are babies and to stop trying to audition for WWE.
The rescue has a rule of no siblings going together (littermate syndrome). We are all pretty happy to either play with another dog or be an only dog as long as we have enrichments.
I have been learning to sit when I have my dinner and my foster mum says I’m getting there slowly... but you know I have siblings and something could be yummier in their bowl.
I currently live with all size dogs and ages (and temperaments) my foster mum says that I am definitely dog socialized, oh yeah and kid socialized too.
I am 90% toilet trained but I am still only 9 weeks old so you know, accidents may happen.
Currently my foster mum works from home a few days a week and the rest we spend our day having access inside and out playing to our hearts are content while she works – we do love being able to curl up in her office and have a snooze.
And when she's gone we play and play and play and then crash to sleep! We are not fans of being crated and will definitely express to you that we are unhappy, something about can't contain the uncontainable............. we are good honest - we just like to be with the big furkids are and play!
Our foster mum was very proud that we learnt how to use the back door so quickly – hell yeah it meant at our bedtime we could run outside and keep playing with the other dogs – she just shakes her head now and says okay when you’re tired you will crash and I’ll come sort you out (sometimes we sleep with the bigger dogs for a bit)
I am not cat tested but I’m also really young so this is something that should be easily taught to me (don’t chase)
I love to have a play outside in the grass (wet as well) and then come in and have a good cuddle
My foster mum does these baths on me she reckons that we all get so dirty so quickly – but we just give her smooches and tell her cause we are having fun!
My foster mum has said that we have a scruffy soft coat and may need a brush but probably not grooming as we get older.

Adoption details
Paw Prints Canine Rescue is a non for profit dog rescue located in Southeast Queensland.
All our dogs leave our care with full vet work (up-to-date vaccinated, microchipped, desexed, heart worm and intestinal wormed and flea treated).
Please note - They will not leave for their new homes until they are 12 weeks of age and have been desexed, micro-chipped and vaccinated up to date.
Please note - we are not a pound or have kennels - all our dogs stay in foster carers homes and therefore dogs are not able to be simply viewed - only approved applicants will meet the dogs.
Please Note: We do not hold any animals so please only apply if you are ready to adopt now
Please note - We don't take calls on adoption enquiries - an application must be completed
We can also be found at https://www.facebook.com/pawprintscanine/
Complete the following adoption enquiry link
https://goo.gl/forms/PqpkCcE89ikDR2Lw1
Once an adoption enquiry is completed our admin team will assess the application and if successful we will arrange for a meet and greet to be completed. We may also request photos of your yard for consideration of your application. Please note that we will do no more than 3 meet and greets per dog.
Approved applicants will be contacted to arrange a time for a meet & greet via email. You must bring your current dog along to the meeting if you are meeting another dog/puppy, this is to ensure they get along before commencing adoption - proof of your dogs up-to-date vaccination is required before any meet and greet is arranged.
Our adoption fee must be cleared in our bank account before any animal is available for pick up. Please note we bank with ANZ - any other bank may take 48 hours to process the monies.
Paw Prints Canine Rescue has a 10 day trial period – this basically means that if for any reason the adoption does not work out and the dog needs to be returned to us, the adoption fee minus an admin fee (minimum is $250) will be returned to the adoptees via bank transfer within 7 working days.
Please note that if an interstate adoption needs to be returned or regional adoption all transport cost with be paid by the adopter.
Please also note while this can be a very exciting time for everyone, it can also be an overwhelming time for dogs and we ask that you do try and allow your new family member to settle in their new home and adjust
INTERSTATE ADOPTIONS **
Any transport costs are to be paid by the adopting family, however we can assist you in helping with transport to airports etc.
** Please note some of our dogs are not available for interstate adoption
AFTER THE TRIAL PERIOD
After the 10 day trial period is completed Paw Prints Canine will send out all relevant paperwork for your new furbaby via email including the transfer of microchip form.
