Meet Lenny 🐾
Lenny is a lovely, affectionate boy with so much love to give, sometimes all at once! He's a bit of a Velcro dog and loves being close to his people, which does mean he can get overexcited and jump up to say hello. We're actively working on this with him, and he's the kind of dog who thrives with consistent, gentle guidance. He wants to please, he just needs a little polish.
As an excitable young pup still learning his manners, Lenny would do best in a home with older, school-age children rather than very young kids. He's also bonded closely with an older dog, PJ, and does best with canine company around, ideally a calm, steady presence he can look up to.
Lenny is looking for a home that understands the needs of his breed and can commit to ongoing training, daily exercise, socialisation, and mental stimulation. Everything he needs to thrive and grow into a happy, confident boy.
Suited to: Homes with older/school-age children, homes with another dog
Needs: Someone home for much of the day (not suited to 8-hour+ solo days unless there's a canine companion), continued training and structure, patience while he learns his manners
Personality: Loving, needy in the best way, eager to be included in everything the family does
Medical notes
The desexing procedure is typically performed once the puppies reach a minimum age of 24 weeks. It is a mandatory requirement that all puppies are desexed by the age of 26 weeks, unless there is written veterinary advice indicating otherwise. A contractual agreement specifying the commitment to desexing by the specified due date is required for completion.
Upon submission of documented evidence confirming the desexing procedure, a refund of $250 will be issued, and ownership transfer will be facilitated. Ownership transfer will not be processed until valid proof of desexing is provided via email.
It is important to note that all our dogs and puppies undergo microchipping, vaccination, and receive preventive measures against parasites as part of our standard practices.
