About Dot ~ Toy Foxy (on trial 2/7/15)
Introducing Dot - If you have been looking for a lap dog, Dot is the one for you! She is a toy Foxy only weighing 3 kg at 2 years old, she is happiest when she is snuggled up on your lap.
Dot has had a rough 2 years of life having been abandoned in a backyard. Since she has been in foster care she is starting to trust humans again but will need more work on this. She isn't sure of men but loves children and females; she will tolerate other small dogs and cats but is a bit scared of large dogs.
Dot is toilet trained and will let you know when she wants to go outside; she can also use a doggy door.
She is a little bit fussy with food but loves to eat roast chicken or the small my dog food. Dot likes the car but needs to be restrained as she will jump around, she walks well on a lead and loves to go for a short walks.
Dot would suit a home with no other animals or just a small dog and someone that is home most days. She would love to sleep with you in your warm bed as being so tiny she feels the cold.
She has lots of love to give and once she learns to trust you she will never leave your side.
For more information or to meet Dot, please contact her foster carer Trisha on 0437 215 461 or email pmorris10@optusnet.com.au. Dot is in foster care in Cardfiff, NSW (Lake Macquarie, south of Newcastle) and is available for adoption interstate.
Dot's adoption fee is $400 and she is desexed, vaccinated, treated for fleas and worms, microchipped, and lifetime registered. You can see all our available dogs at www.dogrescuenewcastle.com.au

Adoption details
(1) The first step is to phone or email the foster carer listed on the pet's profile (scroll to the bottom on the description). They can answer your questions and will ask you about the sort of home you are offering and may ask you to fill in our Adoption Questionnaire http://www.dogrescuenewcastle.com.au/adopt/adoptionquestionnaire.docx
(2) If the questionnaire is approved you can arrange to meet the pet, usually at the foster carer's 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. We 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.
