About Misty & Millie
These beautiful little girls, Misty & Millie, are sisters and have spent all their lives together. Their owner (recently passed away) requested that they be re-homed together and we agree it would be distressful for them if they were to be separated now. Both girls have a wonderful and lovable nature and would suit a retired single person or couple with the time to give them the love they desire. They will not be re-homed with anyone who goes out to work during the day.
They will be 12 years old on 12th December - expected life span of some 17 years plus is quite normal. Both Misty and Millie have been given a clean bill of health from the vet who stated they are in excellent health for their age.
They are a toy poodle cross papillon and their coat requires constant clipping (if done by a professional groomer would cost in the vicinity of $35-$40 per dog). Their ears need frequent plucking as the poodle breed can be susceptible to ear infections.
Anyone who has owned poodles knows that this breed is very loving, intelligent and loyal. A small amount of exercise each day and a nice backyard will keep them entertained.
Miisty and Millie are content to be together all day long and are not barkers. They are happy to enjoy many hours on the couch lazing aorund and watching television with you.

Medical notes
Misty and Milly have both had dental work in November and December with some extractions and teeth cleaning. Some evidence of minor eyesight deterioration.
Adoption details
The first step is to phone (preferred ) or email Port Macquarie Animal Welfare Service for assessment regarding prospective ownership and pet suitability.
Adoption Application forms must be completed and include a vet reference and photos of yards and fencing. A property inspection will be carried out on properties in the Port Macquarie area.
New dog owners must have a fully secure, fenced yard offering protection from all types of weather, subject to approval by PMAWS.
A 2 week trial period commences on the day of adoption.
All PMAWS dogs & cats are desexed, vaccinated, heart & intestinal wormed, flea & tick treated.
Introducing a Kitten/Cat into a new home (especially where either a dog or cat already lives) can be a difficult challenge. It requires patience, perseverance and supervision.
Once your new kitten/cat arrives home, it should be made to feel safe in its own room - we call this the "sanctuary". \ No other cat or dog should be allowed into this room. The kitten/cat will need bedding, food, water, a view out of a window and somewhere to hide. A good idea in dog and cat families is also a 2 metre tall scratching post, where a kitten/cat can retreat if it needs to.
Keep the kitten/cat in a room for the first few days, then, gradually, using a series of wooden chocks (or similar), open the door slightly to allow paws and noses to meet. It can then be opened further to allow the kitten/cat in and out, but not the older cat or dog in. We recommend that this should be continued for 14 days.
PMAWS urges all owners to keep their cats indoors.
