š¾ Meet River
River is a playful, sweet-natured puppy who is doing so well as she learns about the world around her. Sheās curious, affectionate and always ready for a little adventure, while also showing some lovely maturity for her age.
River is learning her social cues from the other dogs around her and is becoming more confident in understanding when to play and when to give another dog some space. She recently wanted to play with a kitten, but when the kitten hissed at her, River took the hint and backed off without becoming bothered, a great little example of her ability to listen and respect boundaries.
She has also been exposed to a variety of experiences, including young children, loud crowds, bonfires, ducks, cats and other dogs, and is taking everything in her stride.
River is kid-friendly and great with young children, making her a lovely companion for a family who wants to include their dog in everyday adventures.
And while River loves to play and explore, she would love nothing more than to sit down beside you soaking up all the love and affection she can get.
š” River is sleeping beautifully in her crate overnight and is also doing really well with her toilet training. Like all puppies, she is still learning and will need continued guidance, consistency and positive reinforcement as she grows.
River will need a family who understands that puppies are still learning about the world and who can provide the patience, structure, consistency and training she needs to grow into a wonderful adult dog.
River would thrive with an active family who can give her plenty of playtime, adventures, training and mental stimulation. A family who enjoys getting out and about, while also making time for learning, settling and plenty of cuddles, would be a wonderful match for this playful little girl.
River has such a lovely personality and is making fantastic progress. With the right family by her side, we know she has all the potential to grow into an amazing lifelong companion.
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 p
