Meet adorable Arthur! Beware, this is a whippet in disguise. Arthur looks like a kelpie but acts just like a rascally whippet. He is a counter surfing, food stealing, sock thief (whippet behaviour)! The slightest amount of pain is followed by an Oscar award-winning performance of suffering (whippet behaviour).
Your bed is Arthur's favourite place and he has an uncanny ability to know exactly when you wake up and is there for his cuddles.
Arthur demands attention by oozing up on to your lap or chest. If you don't give him loving he wriggles worse than a beached fish and will grab your hand in his mouth to get you rubbing him again! Some days he is more than happy to stay at home, nesting in your bed. He is great with other dogs, housetrained and quite obedient when it suits him. Although not overly active he loves his 2 walks a day currently and will need daily exercise. Being a social dog he won't thrive if left alone (without you) for long hours every day.
He will sulk if told off and give you looks that will melt your heart (more whippet behaviour)!
Arthur is just the softest, sweetest darling boy whom you can never really be angry at.
He's only young so has a little more growing to do and so much love to give.
If you're seeking a new friend with personality plus and bags of character then look no further. This fellow will keep you entertained and lap up your affection.
MEDICAL NOTES
Adoption fee includes vet check, 2 x pup vaccinations, microchip (including transfer of ownership fee), flea and worm treatment and sterilisation.
ADOPTION NOTES
Our adoption process for the successful applicant includes a meet and greet, (including your own dog if applicable), a home check (or photos of your yard and fencing to be supplied to us if not local), and a two week trial period to ensure your chosen dog is the right fit for your home.
All adoption fees must be deposited into our SAFE Bunbury bank account in full before adoption trial starts (we cannot accept cash). The Adoption Agreement will be emailed to the selected applicant in advance of meeting your chosen dog.
After the adoption trial period has been completed we arrange transfer of ownership of the dog's microchip to the new owner, and email out the vet records.
