About Bonnie
Bonnie is a most charming 4 year old Cavoodle with energy to burn. She will
need a very active family and a back yard to run around in.
She is very social with other dogs and loves to play with them, so another
dog in the household is a prerequisite. She would be excellent around
children, but not under the age of about 8 as she could knock them over.
She loves to play and chase ball. Bonnie has had some obedience training
with a professional trainer and responded very well.
Bonnie will bark if anyone comes to the house like most dogs. She is not
suited to being left alone at home for long periods during the day, even
with another dog, it could spell trouble as she realy craves human company.
She must be allowed inside the house during the day and have access to the
backyard as well. Good secure fencing is required, locked gates are
preferred.
Bonnie will need regular grooming and washing to keep her coat in good
condition. A professional clip would cost approximately $50 and should be
done approximately every 3 months.
She was surrendered to PMAWS after careful consideration by her former owner
who could not keep up with her energy levels and felt Bonnie needed a more
active owner/family. It was a heart-breaking decision and was not made
lightly, but we believe it was the right decision.
Applications to adopt Bonnie are now being accepted so if you would like
more information on this gorgeous girl, please contact Wendy on 6584 7027.
Adoption details
The first step is to phone (preferred ) or email Port Macquarie Animal Welfare Service for assessment regarding prospective ownership and pet suitability.
Adoption Application forms must be completed and include a vet reference and photos of yards and fencing. A property inspection will be carried out on properties in the Port Macquarie area.
New dog owners must have a fully secure, fenced yard offering protection from all types of weather, subject to approval by PMAWS.
A 2 week trial period commences on the day of adoption.
All PMAWS dogs & cats are desexed, microchipped, vaccinated, heart & intestinal wormed, flea & tick treated.
Introducing a Kitten/Cat into a new home (especially where either a dog or cat already lives) can be a difficult challenge. It requires patience, perseverance and supervision.
Once your new kitten/cat arrives home, it should be made to feel safe in its own room - we call this the "sanctuary". No other cat or dog should be allowed into this room. The kitten/cat will need bedding, food, water, a view out of a window and somewhere to hide. A good idea in dog and cat families is also a 2 metre tall scratching post, where a kitten/cat can retreat if it needs to. \
Keep the kitten/cat in a room for the first few days, then, gradually, using a series of wooden chocks (or similar), open the door slightly to allow paws and noses to meet. It can then be opened further to allow the kitten/cat in and out, but not the older cat or dog in. We recommend that this should be continued for 14 days.
PMAWS urges all owners to keep their cats indoors.
