About Alfie (On Trial 4/1/14)
Hello, my name is Alfie, I am a 5 month old red cattle x puppy. My manners are impeccable, I just want to please you and make you happy! As of today I am currently searching for my forever home and can’t wait to spend the rest of my life being your best friend.
I LOVE playing with my toys; I even play with them by myself, however I will not complain about a good game of fetch! \ Best of all though is spending time with my humans, I love being by your side and snuggling up to watch TV with you.
Going for walks is the best, though I do tend to get a bit excited and pull at the start of the walk. Car rides are a bit scary and make me feel a little sick, but I am getting more used to them now. I am mostly housetrained but sometimes when I don’t get let outside often enough I just can’t hold it any longer, I know it’s naughty, but I try to be good, I just need your help!
Being a puppy, I can be a little cheeky, but my foster mummy says that I am a good boy most of the time. When I get a bit excited I do jump a little bit, I am learning that this is naughty, it’s just hard when I get sooooo excited to see you!! Because of this I would be best in a home without small children.
I am told that I am a very smart boy because I have already learnt how to sit and lie down, and I am also starting to get the hang of ‘roll over’, ‘on your bed’, and ‘stay’. I love my treats and love receiving your praise, so I am happy to learn any tricks you want to teach me!
My foster home has two other dogs and I love playing with them! I would enjoy having a doggy friend in my forever home but I wouldn’t mind being an only dog as long as you are home most of the time.
My forever home would have to be one where I am allowed inside each day to enjoy some quality time with my family and I would love you to call my foster mummy to find out more about me as I can’t wait to meet you! I hope you give me a chance and give me my forever home; I can assure you I am worth it.
For more information or to meet me please phone foster carer Kira on 0422467552 or email xox_kira_xox@live.com.au. I am in foster care, Cameron Park NSW and available for adoption interstate.
Alfie's $450 adoption fee includes his desexing, vaccinations, flea and worm treatments, microchipping, and lifetime registration. You can see all our available dogs at www.dogrescuenewcastle.com.au
We always recommend puppy-training classes to give your new family member the best start in life. All dogs and puppies need plenty of affection, exercise, and training.
Adoption details
(1) The first step is to phone (preferred) or email the foster carer listed on the pet's profile (scroll to the bottom on the description). They can tell you all about the pet. They will also ask you about what sort of home you are offering in order to assess if it is a good match.
(2) Arrange to meet the pet, usually at the foster carers home or nearby.
(3) If that goes well we will arrange a property check so we can verify that your home and yard are suitable for the pet you've selected. They will ask to see photo ID.
(4) If both sides agree, then you can pay for and adopt your new family member! The two week trial begins on the day of adoption.
