About Coco
Coco is a very gorgeous looking lady. A real joy to be around! She is a loyal and friendly dog and is happy to be in the company of other dogs. She needs plenty of exercise each day to keep her in good shape - at the moment is on a strict exercise program with a long walk each day - a couple of kilos to come off yet!
Coco has a wonderful, sweet nature (like most Cavaliers) but can get a bit excited around people and other dogs whilst in their company.
She must be allowed to be an inside dog, with access, of course, to an outside garden area. She is completely house-trained and is very obedient.
Coco will make a fantastic "forever friend" to either a single person or a family. We will not allow her to go to anyone who works full time - she needs company and would not cope with being left alone in a back yard for long periods of time.
Coco's beautiful coat has been clipped right back for summer, which we strongly recommend for all dogs. Port Macquarie is a high risk area for the paralysis tick and as a further precaution against them, we have taken this step. Her ears should be checked on a regular basis and kept clean.
We highly recommend this gorgeous girl!
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.
