About Ada
Ada is a loveable little puppy who is gentle, cheeky and cute.
Ada will be a very loyal dog for anyone who wants a best friend by their side all the time. She follows her foster carer around the house and will plonk down next to her foster carer for a nap. Ada also loves to lie on her back on her foster carer and receive a full body massage. This usually puts Ada to sleep and is very cute. In the mornings, Ada is like a pocket rocket and will jump around wagging her tail and then proceed to do laps around the backyard.
This gorgeous girl really has a big personality and is happy to show you her true self once she is settled and trusts you. Be warned though– not only will this girl steal your stuff right in front of you (shoes, belts, clothing – they taste great!) she will come into your life, steal your heart without any warning and from there you will wonder how you ever lived without her.
Ada has had limited socialisation in her life so far therefore can be relatively timid when exposed to new things. She gets quite scared around children and loud noises therefore a quiet home without young children is ideal. Puppy training is highly recommended to get Ada exposed to new situations and used to meeting other dogs. She is treat motivated, and will be a delight to train. Ada is easily guided into a sit and down position with a treat, and can also roll over and crawl using treats. Continued training and she will be able to do these things on queue!
Ada would love a new home where she has another doggy friend around her size to live with and play with during the day, otherwise she can get bored and bark when left alone. She adores the large dog she lives with and will climb all over him and lick him. Ada also loves kongs filled with peanut butter.
Ada will be a great addition to anyone’s life provided they will invest time, patience and love into her to assist in building her confidence so she can grow into a happy little dog.
Ada is in foster care in Scullin ACT, due to Ada's nature we will not put her on transport to go to her new home. If you would like to adopt Ada you will must be willing to drive to Canberra to meet her.
Medical notes
Ada is due her third vaccination on 5 Apr 15.
