*** LOCAL ADOPTION IN THE CAIRNS AREA ONLY ***
NQAR would like to introduce the diamond of the season,
Miss Marli.
With her eyeliner on point and her health back on track, she is ready for her furever home.
Being the lady she is, a proper chaperoned introduction is required when being introduced to both new people and dogs.
Being short in stature Marli does not appreciate having, either people or dogs, reach over the top of her and might let them know by a little growl. This is why her new owner needs to know how to read her body language. She prefers to sniff out anyone new and then be the one to ask for the first pat. Once she is comfortable she will ask for non-stop pats.
Marli will want to be the top dog in the house so if her furever home does have another dog companion, it will help they are calm and submissive.
While in care she has played with the furry neighbours that are her size, however wasn't interested in the larger ones.
While resting with the family inside, she understands “Bed” is her designated spot to watch over everyone’s doings. Equally, Marli does enjoy lazing on the daybed outside or on the spare bed (if given access) while her people are out.
Before bedtime, we head out for “Toilet” however in case the need occurs during the night, Marli has learnt to use the doggy door at her convenience.
Now a lady of this calibre does require a home that will treat her as the Queen she is. Access to the couch would be greatly appreciated. A well-manicured dry lawn is most preferable for her toilet breaks as she does not appreciate her delicate paws touching wet grass.
Marli is $350 to adopt and comes desexed, microchipped, C5 vaccinated and given flea, tick and worm preventatives.
