Meet Pixie, affectionately known as Pickles—an energetic and super sweet Miniature Pinscher looking for her new family. This black and tan beauty, born on December 30, 2017, is vaccinated, microchipped, desexed, and wormed, ensuring she's in top-notch health. Pixie weighs a petite 5kg, making her a compact bundle of joy.
Pixie is incredibly affectionate and thrives on snuggles, pats, massages, and tummy rubs. Her hunting instincts are typical of her breed, making her an adventurer at heart, especially when it comes to spotting cats. However, her sweet nature shines through in her interactions with humans and other dogs. Although she can be timid, she gets along well with her canine companions, preferring calm and friendly encounters.
Pixie loves long walks, and she must always be on a chest harness and lead for safety reasons as she has never been let off-leash when out and about. She's an excellent housemate, fully house-trained and adept at using a doggy door. Pixie is also fairly good at traveling in a car, although she might get a bit noisy when riding with her friend, Hugo.
Though she's not accustomed to small children, Pixie does well with kids , making her suitable for families with older children. She has a curious and energetic spirit, always eager to explore and engage in activities. One quirk that stands out is her reaction to the command "who wants a snack?"—she will come running from anywhere!
Be aware that Pixie doesn't like storms, so a secure and comforting environment during inclement weather is essential. She also has a regular monthly regimen of Nexgard Spectra chew on the first of each month to keep her healthy and parasite-free.
Pixie's future home will need a secure, high fence with no small gaps to keep her safe during her outdoor adventures. Her affectionate and loyal demeanor, combined with her playful and curious nature, makes Pixie an excellent addition to a loving home. Are you ready to welcome this delightful Miniature Pinscher into your life? She can't wait to shower you with hugs and boundless love.

Here are some quick tips to make your APPLICATION stand out:
Include as many details as you can about your lifestyle, family, accommodation, and work. Here’s some first-hand feedback from our member rescue organisations about what they'd like to see in your applications:
🐱 Why would this animal suit your home? (This lets them know that you've read the pet’s bio and considered their personality vs. your lifestyle)
🐾 Details about your family
🏡 Is your home quiet/relaxed or loud/busy? (Particularly important for timid cats). Ask questions, to show your are interested in the animals ell being.
Add questions into the application.
Fill out the profiles of your current pets if you have any. Understanding the personality of resident cats and dogs will help rescue organisations or foster carers determine if the pet will adjust to your surroundings.

Be open and honest - rescues prefer having as much information as they can about potential adopters.
An adoption fee applies to each animal to cover only the basic veterinary procedures, and each adoption goes out on a 21 day settling in period, if the dog is returned in this period, and you’ve spoken to our trainer for assistance, and the dog is returned in good health, mentally and physically, and all their belongings and paperwork are returned, then we provide a refund less $50 admin fee. This is not a trial, but in case of any unknown or unforeseen circumstances.
The adoption process is as follows
✅Everyone that lives in the home will meet the dog with the carer
✅We ask everyone go home again and discuss and think about overnight and contact us the next day
✅This also gives the carer a chance to think about suitability
✅Then if everyone agrees we then require a home inspection, or at least photos of the home yard and fences.
✅Then the adoption fee is paid and once that clears our account you are free to arrange with the carer to collect
✅The adoption paperwork comes out in 14 days in which time you are required to register and change chip over
