Bundy

Hello there! I’m Bundy, and I’m officially accepting applications for my forever family.

APPLICATION PROCESS APPLIES FOR BUNDY
PLEASE COMPLETE THE BELOW APPLICATION FORM 
https://forms.gle/YDH2D2ebyp5LG5dv6

My Ideal Home:
• I’ll need daily exercise — walks, park or beach trips, and playtime in the backyard will keep me happy and healthy.
• Ongoing training and guidance with basic manners will help me grow into a well-behaved companion.
• I want to be part of the family indoors — not left outside without interaction.
• As a social and playful pup, I may really enjoy attending doggy daycare.
• I need a doggy companion to keep me company when my family isn’t home, or a household where someone is around most of the time. I can feel lonely and anxious when left alone, which may lead to barking or destructive behaviour.
• Secure fencing (no gaps, holes, areas I can escape through) is essential to keep me safe.
• I’d love plenty of toys and mental enrichment to keep my busy mind occupied.
• Most importantly, I’m looking for lots of love and attention from my family.
• I have previously lived with young children - we didn't interact much, but I was always gentle towards them.
• As a young puppy, I’m ready to learn and adapt - it’s essential that I receive consistent guidance and training in every aspect of my life so I can become the very best companion as I mature.
• Because I may have had a sheltered start and can sometimes be shy in new situations, continued socialisation will really help build my confidence. I’m already becoming braver at the shelter!
• I was unsure around cats at the shelter and may become more inquisitive as my confidence grows, to be safe a home without cats would be best for me, as I’m likely to chase them.

My Paw-some Perks:
• I’m a very playful, happy pup with the cutest little wiggle-butt when I’m excited.
• I’m very social and happy to hang out with other friendly dogs — total social butterfly!
• I absolutely love attention, cuddles, hugs, kisses and head scratches, and I’m quite partial to snoozing on the couch with my humans.
• I’m gentle and placid in nature, and I’ve had some basic obedience training.
• I walk nicely on lead for a young dog, and with daily walks I’ll only keep improving.

Training/Support Needs:
• I’ve lived in the same home my whole life and had very little exposure to the outside world. Everything is quite new to me, so I’ll need a patient family to gently socialise me and show me that the world isn’t such a scary place.
• I haven’t had any formal training yet, so I’ll need help with all my basic manners and life skills. The good news is I love food and toys, which will make positive training lots of fun and rewarding for me.
• I may initially shy away from things going over my head (like a lead), but I warm up quickly and my fun, lively personality soon shines through.
• I’m not housetrained yet, as I haven’t previously been allowed inside, so I’ll need guidance and consistency to learn.

Please Note: You’ll only be able to meet Bundy if your application is approved. Successful applicants will be invited to the shelter for a meet-and-greet, and any dogs currently in the home must attend as well

PLEASE NOTE: Shelter staff make the final decision based on determining if the applicant can meet the animals needs (lifestyle, home environment, experience) Our goal is to ensure a permanent home that sets both the animal and new family up for success.
Shelter staff reserve the right to deny an adoption if they determine the animal's specific needs do not match the applicant's lifestyle.
