Meet Whitey - a sweet, smart companion.

Whitey is a delightful young Staffy mix girl who's blossoming into a happy and loving companion. While she can be cautious in new situations, she's making wonderful progress and her playful personality is emerging more each day.

What makes Whitey special:
- Fully house-trained and clean
- Intelligent, observant and eager to please
- Good on the lead and travels beautifully in the car
- Gets along well with other dogs (responds well to gentle corrections if she gets a bit competitive for attention), untested with cats or other pets
- Very quiet - rarely barks
- Affectionate and loves being close to her people.

Whitey will shine in a home where someone is around most of the day, or where she has another calm dog for company (Whitey really does enjoy living with another dog and this may be her ideal new home). She's still building confidence around older men but is comfortable with younger males. A home with dog-savvy older children or teens would be perfect, as she can get excitedly bouncy when she's happy, although does settle quickly.

Whitey is your loyal shadow - she will follow her person about and always wants to be nearby and involved in what you're doing. She can get under your feet at times! We expect this neediness to decrease as she understands she's now safe, secure and loved.

Whitey is ready to reward a patient, loving family with her loyal devotion and those classic Staffy cuddles. Could you be her perfect match?

MEDICAL NOTES

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.
