About Puppy Scrappy (On Trial 16/12/13)
Scrappy is a lovely mellow boy who adores his cuddles. He is a 9 week old Ridgeback x puppy. He is a beautiful red wheaten colour with distinctive amber eyes and those cute Ridgie wrinkles on his forehead. Scrappy is a very smart boy who will be easy to train. He is doing well with his toilet training and knows to go to the door to be let out to toilet. Scrappy is also getting used to having a bath and is very good at waiting patiently for me to wash, dry and generally fuss over him. He is great at sleeping in the laundry at night, we barely hear a peep from him until the morning.
During the day when we are out at work Scrappy is happy to stay outside with his sister Velma and play until we get home and he can come inside and spend time with us (he loves to watch the TV!). Scrappy would do best in a family that already have a dog as he is super social and really loves having his sister Velma with him throughout the day. 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.
If you're looking for an adorable puppy who loves his kisses and cuddles then Scrappy is the boy for you! He would love to have his own home for Christmas and forever.
If you would like to know more about Scrappy or his sister Velma or would like to come and meet them, please ring Anne 02 4943 3651 or 0412 837 867. Scrappy is in foster care in Newcastle.
Scrappy'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

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.
