Meet Slinky 💙
Slinky has a laid-back personality and a love for the simple things in life. He enjoys a cuddle with his humans and a play with his puppy mates, but he’s also quite happy doing his own thing.
This little boy is a professional hideaway hunter! Whether it’s under the dog trampoline, tucked between shelves or hiding under the table, Slinky is always the first to find a cosy little cave to curl up in for a nap. 💤
Slinky is currently in foster with children, chickens and other dogs in the home. He’s curious about the chooks and will happily sit and watch them, showing interest while remaining respectful of the older dogs around him.
Slinky is already making great progress with his manners! He sits patiently for his food and is toileting on the grass. 🐾
The Perfect Home 🏡
Slinky will need a family who understands that puppies are still learning and growing. He’ll thrive with patience, consistency and gentle guidance to help him develop into a wonderful adult dog.
Puppy training and attending puppy preschool will be an important part of helping Slinky build his confidence, learn good manners and become the happy, well-adjusted companion we know he can be.
If you’re looking for a sweet little boy who enjoys cuddles just as much as his independence, Slinky might just be the perfect addition to your family.
Although Slinky is one of the calmer pups at the moment, he will likely grow into an energetic young dog, as is typical of working breeds. 🐾
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.
