Nuri

🩷 Nuri — Pink Collar
Nuri is the gentle soul of the litter.
When she first arrived, she was the most nervous and placid of the four. Within just 24 hours she had already started coming out of her shell, and we're now seeing a much more confident little girl emerging.
She's learned to stand up for herself and will happily tell her brothers when they've crossed the line, but there's still a beautiful vulnerability and softness to Nuri.
We think she'll absolutely blossom once she has a family of her own and no longer feels she needs to compete with three siblings for everything. Individual attention, gentle confidence building and a predictable home will allow her to develop at her own pace.
A calm, confident resident dog could be particularly valuable for Nuri — someone she can look to for reassurance while she discovers that the world is actually a pretty great place.

Shared background of the litter:
These four special pups had a pretty unusual start to life. Their mum, a lovely-natured Cattle Dog, was found living in bushland with her four puppies when they were approximately 5–6 weeks old. The little family had to be trapped and brought into the pound system before spending some time with a foster carer in a rural area.
Mum has since shown what a beautiful girl she is, settling easily into foster care with a lovely temperament. Dad is unknown, although a Wolfhound-type dog was reportedly trapped in nearby bushland, so we suspect he may potentially be the father.
The puppies have now moved to Sydney where they are getting plenty of individual attention, exposure and opportunities to build their confidence. Having spent their earliest weeks surviving together, they can be quite competitive around food and resources when all four are together. Separately, however, we're seeing four very sweet little personalities emerge.
They are also enthusiastic little gardeners who don't just investigate plants — they try to eat them! This may be a throwback to their early bush upbringing, but their future families will definitely need to puppy-proof the garden.
We expect them to grow into medium-to-large dogs. We would ideally love homes with a friendly, well-balanced resident dog who can be a positive role model as they continue learning about life.

Please note: This puppy will be adopted out under a desexing contract that will require the dog to be desexed by a given age. The cost of desexing will be included as part of the adoption fee. A $250 desexing bond will be payable in addition to the adoption fee and will be refunded upon proof of desexing. This process is further discussed with successful applicants.
