About Plume
Meet Plume, a sweet kelpie girl with a soft and gentle nature who adores cuddles with her trusted human.
Plume is an easy dog to have around and would make a fantastic farm companion. She loves to be by your side – helping with farm chores, quality testing the strawberries, and providing excavation services when planting is required. She is well-behaved around the sheep, goats and chooks.
Plume has a great off-switch after her exercise, and makes a pleasant working-from-home colleague.
She has lovely, respectful manners with other dogs, and, after gentle introductions, she’s very happy to launch into full-speed zoomies and games of bitey face!
She will need a home with a stable and playful doggie pal, preferably 18 months or older, who can help guide her when she is worried, as she’s still finding her confidence and can get overwhelmed in new situations.
Plume is looking for an active and patient family who will work on building her confidence, allow her inside as part of the family, and include her in their daily lives. She will need some time and patience when moving into her new home.
Her new family must be committed to continuing her exposure to the world and ongoing training to make sure she develops into a well-adjusted dog.
She is looking for a home in a quiet environment – busy suburbia and city life would be too overwhelming.
If you think Plume might be the best mate you’ve been searching for, send us an application with some details about the life you can offer her.
Plume is located in TAS.
Medical notes
Plume has an abnormality in her left eye that causes it to intermittently dry out and become irritated. When this happens, cleaning it gently with warm salty water helps manage the irritation. In low light, her left eye looks slightly cloudy as a result of this issue. She's been seen by our vet, who advises her vision is unaffected, and she is not in any pain. Her eye should be monitored and reviewed at her annual health check ups with the vet, and any major changes would warrant referral to an ophthalmologist.

Adoption details
To apply to adopt a dog from Dogs4Jobs, you must firstly complete our adoptions application form in full at https://dogs4jobs.com.au/adoption-process-forms/.
You can also write out your answers and email them to dogs@dogs4jobs.com.au
*Please note, due to the high volume of applications received, we will not respond to Petrescue chat messages, or enquiries to adopt a dog. You must complete our adoptions form to be considered for the dog or pup, and we will respond to this form via our email.
We will then request to complete a yard check, or for you to send in photos of your yard showing the fencing, space, shelter and any hazards etc, to confirm it is safe and secure, as well as adequate space for a working breed dog.
Following this, we will then put you in touch with the dog/s foster carer/s that you are interested in, to chat further over the phone, about whether the dog is a good fit for your family, and vice versa. We are searching for the perfect match for each dog and their needs. We offer interstate adoption on all of our dogs.
