Hi, I’m Paddy!
I came into rescue with my litter and our mum- our breeder wasn't able to keep caring for us and decided to get us some help. Since then, I've been thriving!
I’m a fit, friendly all-rounder who gets along with pretty much everyone. Dogs? Love them. People? Absolutely. Kids? Yep. I even lived with chooks for a bit and I got along great with them. I’m a respectful, easy housemate - I'm a puppy so I'll still need ongoing guidance and training, but I've got great foundations!
I’m crate trained, I travel well in the car, and I’m always up for an adventure with my family. Whether it’s a drive, a walk, or a day out, I’m the kind of dog who jumps in with a happy wag and an open heart. I've only had one accident inside since coming into care, and I sleep soundly overnight in my crate. I really like my crate; the door is left open mostly, and I will just take myself in there for a sleep. It's my happy safe place. I can be a bit nervous with new people but that's pretty normal for dogs my age, and I warm up really quickly!
When it's time for my carer to go to work, I happily spend the day in the yard with the other dog here. I rarely bark, but when I do, it's only to let you know someone is in the front yard- something that gives my carer some extra peace of mind! I haven't learned to walk on a leash yet, but that will probably be easy- I've picked up the house routines with ease and I am food motivated, so learning these sorts of things should be easy and fun to do together!
I’d make a fantastic family pet; gentle, adaptable, and eager to please. I'm incredibly smart and sweet and just a lovely natured puppy. You’ll just need secure fencing to keep me safe, a doggy friend and in return you’ll get a loyal, sweet-natured boy who fits right into the rhythm of your home. I'm a mixed breed- my mum is a purebred Maremma, and my dad is next door's arab x. So I will be a big boy when fully grown!
After everything I’ve been through, I’m ready for my happy furever after where I’m loved, wanted, and finally home. ❤️🐾
