About Cindy
Cindy is what I (her foster carer) would call "the perfect dog". She is well trained, thanks to her previous owner, she is cuddly and calm, playful and fun. She respects your commands and has perfect recall.
Cindy loves her cuddles on your lap but she also loves to have a game of tug -o-war and to play with soft toys. She loves her walks and once away from traffic, can even be trusted off lead. Cindy travels well in a car and really, it would be difficult to find anything negative about this gorgeous little girl.
Cindy is cat friendly and she has been living with 5 other dogs and her 5 pups, all of whom are now fully weaned.
She will let you know when she wants to "go potty" by waiting patiently at the door, tail wagging and a smile on her face.
Cindy is looking for a loving family, who will be able to give her lots of cuddles and of course take her for those all important walks. She will make a great family pet as she is very calm but the children will be able to play with her as well.
Medical notes
Cindy has been desexed, vaccinated and micro chipped. She is up to date with flea and worm control.
Adoption details
Once the animal is advertised candidates for adoption are requested to fill in a form.
The adoption questionnaire form asks where the animal will sleep, details of people and other animals in the home, training and exercise plans etc. We use this form as part of our screening process.
If we like what we read and the animal’s individual needs are met we then conduct an informal phone interview.
Then the potential adopter meets the animal at the carers home or the carer may choose to take the animal to the adopter’s home to do a house and yard inspection.
If the adopter meets the animal at the carer’s home a house/yard inspection is done after the meet.
When the yard inspection is done we are able to further evaluate the suitability of the candidate to adopt.
If we are satisfied that the animals needs will be met by the adopter and that they are a good match for one another then a trial period may begin.
We have legally binding pre-adoption forms which allow us to remove the animal from the home if all other solutions to issues have failed.
We have a good support base which adopters can utilise if needed, such as a professional trainer, a behaviourist, vets and a groomer.
Homeless Hounds offers support to our adopters for the life of the animal. It is policy that each adopter is aware that if the ever need help or to rehome the animal then HH wants to facilitate that.
Our procedures are based on advice from "model" and well established rescue groups and trial and error.
This pet has been adopted and found love with its new family.
