Meli

*I WILL BE AVAILABLE ON SATURDAY 30TH AUGUST AT THE PUPPY ADOPTION DAY HELD AT THE NORTH MELBOURNE LOST DOGS HOME.*

Meli spent some time living it up in foster care and beginning to learn the basics before making her way down to be the main star of our puppy adoption event. Here's what we learnt from her foster family:

"Meli was relaxed and independent. She would walk around with an air of curiosity, though as a young puppy, she slept most of the time. When awake, she loved to follow her people around the house. Meli wasn't the biggest fan of being left alone, and would whine and cry a little when left alone as well as try to get through the door before it was closed. Of course, when her human friends returned, she was elated and a little jumpy as puppies tend to be, but would run up to say hello. Overall, Meli displays typical puppy behaviour but reacts well to instruction and guidance. Displays intelligence and a willingness to please."

Puppies require patience, routine and consistency. They are still learning about toilet training, how to be polite and how to be on their own. This little puppy is still young and needs guidance to grow and thrive. We recommend that they get put into puppy school to help with socialization as soon as possible. We also recommend that you use treats and toys to help reassure your puppy of the right way to be a dog.

All of our puppies are fed on premium Royal Canin food while at the Shelter and in foster. We recommend that you purchase a bag at the time of adoption (40% off from our friends at Royal Canin) so your new best friend can settle in to the home in the best possible way.

This little baby is still growing and learning so needs enrichment and things to keep them busy so they don't get bored at home.. that's when sneaky chewing can happen!

*Do I sound like the perfect fit for you and your family? Come and adopt me on Saturday the 30th of August!*
