About Weevil
Meet Weevil – The Bold and Independent Adventurer
Weevil is a terrier mix pup with a sharp mind, a fearless heart, and a sleek little frame built for exploration. With two small mixed-breed parents, he's likely to stay under 10kg, but his independent streak and big personality make him stand tall in any room.
From the moment he arrived in care, Weevil stood out as a leader of the litter—confident, curious, and never one to shy away from new sights, sounds, or challenges. He's not your typical lapdog; Weevil prefers adventure to affection, and he’s happiest when his mind and body are busy.
He’s got the classic terrier boldness, a touch of mischief, and a clever streak that makes him a fun, rewarding challenge for an experienced puppy parent.
🐶 Personality Snapshot
Weevil is:
- Bold, confident, and independent
- Highly curious and clever
- Playful and energetic
- Social with other dogs, but not overly reliant on them
- Learning quickly, but still polishing up on the puppy basics
Weevil has been well-socialised with dogs of all sizes and thrives in an environment where he can explore and learn at his own pace. Ongoing training—including puppy school—is essential to help him channel his energy and smarts into positive behaviours.
🏡 Weevil’s Ideal Home
Weevil is looking for a home that:
- Offers structure, stimulation, and challenge
- Has either a confident dog friend or committed humans to meet his social needs
- Provides plenty of daily physical and mental enrichment
- Has a secure yard or outdoor space—or an apartment with frequent, active outings
- Weevil is fairly independent and doesn’t need constant cuddles, but he does need your time, attention, and a good sense of humour.
👧 Suitability to Children
Weevil would do best with dog-savvy children aged 8+ who understand how to interact respectfully with a spirited young pup who values space just as much as play.
🐶 Suitability to Other Pets
Weevil is dog-social and confident around canines of all sizes. He hasn’t been introduced to cats yet, but with calm, slow introductions and guidance, he could likely learn to live alongside one.
Weevil is for the humans who love a smart, independent pup with a dash of sass. If you’re ready for a life filled with adventures, problem-solving, and the occasional bit of cheek, Weevil might just be your perfect match. 🐕✨

Adoption details
We ask all people looking to adopt to fill in our adoption enquiry form.
For Cats: https://form.jotform.co/92940837256870
For Dogs: https://form.jotform.co/80677377750872
Please use these links rather than the 'Enquire' button on the pet's PetRescue profile to streamline your enquiry.
Our foster carer will contact you when we receive your application to arrange a time for you to meet with their foster pet.
We want your adoption through Maggie's to be a good experience so we will occasionally suggest a different cat or dog that may suit your situation better and the needs of the individual pet.
All our pets leave for their new homes on a two-week trial. At the end of the trial, we will transfer the microchip into your name and provide you with the pets vet certificates. Once you receive the Certificate of Identification from council, your adoption will be complete.
Please consider, that a Maggie's Pet is a pet for Life, before adopting.
