About Puppy Stella (On Trial 1/3/14)
Stella is a 10 week old Australian Cattle Dog x Labrador puppy. She is very sweet little girl ready for her forever home. Stella is a very playful girl and loves getting cuddles. She knows basic commands such as sit and comes when her name is called. She is in the process of being toilet trained. However, as she is a puppy she will require a patient family who can continue with her training. 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.
Stella is living with her brother Blaze (also available for adoption) and other dogs of all ages and sizes and she loves to play with them all. Her favourite games include tug of war, chasings and wrestling. She is good with children.
Stella is a very social girl and would be best suited to a home where she is free to be inside with her family or outside playing. She currently sleeps inside and it would be best if this can continue. Another dog to keep her company when you are out would be preferred so she doesn't get lonely.
Stella's mother was rescued from the pound just a week before Christmas and very heavily pregnant. We named her Noelle. She gave birth to 3 puppies just a few days later. Sadly, one didn't survive. But Stella and Blaze thrived and are ready to begin their lives in their forever homes. Noelle will be available for adoption soon too.
Stella will make a wonderful addition to her new family as she is so full of life, loving and playful.

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.
