About Puppy Norbitt (On Trial 19/2/14)
Norbitt is a 15 week old, male, medium sized, mixed breed puppy. He is well behaved and loves to please. He loves to play but can be rather shy, sitting back and watching rather than getting involved right away. He would benefit from having an easy going play mate in his forever home as he is a little uncertain and needs someone to guide and reassure him.
We are teaching him learning basic commands and toilet training him and he is doing very well. Norbitt has access to indoors and outdoors. He is mainly outside during the day but must be allowed indoors after dark and overnight.
Norbitt is living with his littermates as well as an older puppy and 2 large dogs. He is also friendly with our 2 cats and newly adopted kitten. He is living with adults and older children. He hasn't had much experience with young children but I'm sure he will love them.
Norbitt will need a daily walk and continued training. We always recommend puppy-training classes to give your new family member the best start in life. All dogs need affection, exercise, and training and are an approximately 15 year commitment.
Norbitt and his 5 littermates were found abandoned in a box in bushland so their breed mix is unknown. Born approx \ 27/10/13.
To enquire about any of the puppies please send an email to Cheryl – puppyfromchez@gmail.com and she will reply with a questionnaire. You can also save time and download the questionnaire from our website www.dogrescuenewcastle.com.au/adopt/adoptionquestionnaire.rtf \ then email it to Cheryl. Please remember that it takes time to collect and read the questionnaires. We are volunteers and lead busy lives ourselves, so please be patient in waiting for a response.
Norbitt's $450 adoption fee includes his DESEXING, vaccinations, flea and worm treatments, microchipping and Lifetime Registration. They are in Charlestown NSW, (Lake Macquarie, south of Newcastle). 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.
