Puppy Mara (On Trial 17/8/14)

Mara is a female, 8 week old Boxer x Staffy x Mastiff puppy looking for her forever family. She is a lively, happy, affectionate and inquisitive puppy who enjoys playing with toys and exploring the garden. She gets along very well with the other foster dogs here, from the very large to the very small. She hasn't met a cat yet but should be fine as she is young enough to get used to them.

Mara is used to being allowed inside when people are home so she can enjoy feeling part of the family. She should sleep inside at least until she is fully grown. She likes to nap outside in a kennel during the day.

Mara will be a medium to large sized dog so her new home will need 6ft colourbond fencing or good paling fences of similar height (not rural fencing such as mesh or wire). It'd be great if there was someone that doesn't work full time, such as a stay at home mum, or someone who works from home or is retired.

Mara would love to have another medium sized dog for company and to teach her new things. She's not be suitable for children under 5 years of age as she might accidently knock them over.

We always recommend puppy-training classes to give your new family member the best start in life. Mara is available for adoption to the following areas: Newcastle, Lake Macquarie, Central Coast and Port Stephens. We are not available for Interstate adoption.

For more info or to meet Mara please ring her foster mum, Robyn, on 02 4953 7115 (preferred) or mobile 0407 074 143. Mara is in Glendale, NSW (Newcastle). Robyn doesn't have internet access so phone is the only way to reach her. Thank you.

Mara's adoption fee is only $450 and includes her desexing, vaccinations, flea and worm treatments, and microchipping.
