Shelby (On Trial 3/02/13)

Hi, my name is Shelby. I’m a 12 week old Bull Arab x puppy. I love toys, bones and to run and play in the back yard with my friends. It’s so much fun…

I know how to go to the toilet all by myself. I use the dog door and walk down the steps to the grass. I even know how to use my foster brothers inside dog toilet!!!

I know “sit”, “wait”, “out”, “bed” and am learning “stay”. I have also learnt to mouth instead of bite and always get lots of praise when I give kisses. I don’t jump up at all but instead will sit or lay down near you.

My foster Mum says I can be a little stubborn at times so I will need someone to continue with my training to help me grow up to be a polite, well-behaved girl. I will also need LOTS of toys and bones (fresh and rawhide) to keep me occupied and help with my teeth… and because I love them.

I spend most of my time inside with the rest of my pack and will go outside to the toilet or to play every so often. I sleep inside at night snuggled up on the bed with my foster family; I sleep all night and don’t do anything I shouldn’t.

I will need to have a playful medium-large breed doggie sibling for company as I don’t like to be left alone, and I must be an inside/outside dog. I like to be with my humans as much as possible.

My favourite things are playing, eating and sleeping… in that order. Did I mention I love toys and bones?? Oh and pigs ears. I'm also known to be a bit of a goof ball when I'm in a really playful mood.

I am yet to meet kids, cats, chooks and other pets. Because I am young I learn very quickly so with boundaries and training there should be no issues.

I will grow to be a big girl so I MUST find someone that will commit to me for the rest of my life.
