Syliva

READY FOR ADOPTION – MEET SYLVIA

Don’t let her size fool you! Sylvia may be the smallest of the litter, and initially presented as the shyest and most submissive, but she’s quickly showing us that there’s a whole lot of personality packed into that little body.

This girl is eager to prove herself and absolutely wants to be wherever her people are, doing whatever they’re doing. And if you’re not giving her enough attention? She has absolutely no reservations about letting you know! Even if both your hands are already occupied giving her pats, apparently that’s simply not enough.

Sylvia is a curious little adventurer whose favourite pastimes include climbing things that probably weren’t designed to be climbed, discovering new hiding places to surprise her foster family with and letting loose with a good set of puppy zoomies whenever the mood strikes!

She’s still a baby, learning about the world and figuring out her place in it, so she’ll need a family willing to give her the patience, encouragement and guidance all puppies need.

If you’re looking for a pint-sized explorer with a big personality, plenty of playful energy and an even bigger love for her people, Sylvia might just be your girl!

Crate trained, where do they sleep? Currently working on crate training. Sylvia has access to open crates throughout the day and can choose to settle in one whenever she needs some quiet time. Sylvia is also learning very quickly that being in her crate means settling down and has been content in doing so. Overnight, she generally curls up with her siblings on the couch. The puppies are currently sleeping through until approximately 5–6am.

How is toilet training going? Making excellent progress! Sylvia and her siblings are having significant success with their toilet training.

How is basic training going? Learning ‘come’, ‘inside’ and ‘outside’ when called in the backyard. Lead introduction is currently underway. She’ll need continued positive reinforcement and guidance with basic obedience and puppy manners.

Interactions: Currently living alongside a 3.5-year-old female Kelpie x Dachshund. Sylvia shows a lovely interest in her canine foster companion and is learning to understand her corrections and boundaries. Any future canine companions should be appropriately matched, with gradual introductions.

Children interactions: Young enough to learn and grow alongside children. Will need adult supervision and gentle, positive interactions while learning appropriate boundaries.

Feeding schedules: Currently eating a combination of wet and dry puppy food, three times daily. Transitioning towards two meals per day (breakfast and dinner).
