About Bear ~ Collie X Kelpie X Lab Pup(on trial 14/8/15)
Bear is an 11 week old male puppy with so much love to give he could almost burst.
This little guys has been raised around small children and other dogs. He is a smart, funny, outgoing little fella with the brains of a collie, the speed of a kelpie and the temperament of a lab. I am sure there is nothing this little legend could not learn. He already knows his name, can follow some simple commands and is coming along well with his toilet training.
Bear currently spends his days playing with his foster siblings and his toys, trying to get into as much mischief as possible.
As with all puppies we always recommend puppy training classes. This will help him to become the best doggy he can be. It will also help you bond with Bear.
Bears ideal home would be one where he has another doggie friend to spend his days playing with.
As Bear is just a puppy he will need a lot of time and interaction. He will also need as much love as he can get. He is still eating 3 times a day so it is essential at this age that someone is home during the day.
He is a very family friendly pup and loves human attention. He will need to go to a home where he is welcome inside to be a part of the family.
Bear is predicted to grow into a medium sized dog when he grows up.
If you would like to meet Bear please contact his foster mum. Her name is Sarah and you can email her at jo_jack_17@hotmail.com or call 0490 100 997.
As he is not yet desexed he is only available for adoption in Newcastle, Lake Macquarie, Central Coast and Port Stephens. This is because he will need to be returned to our vet for desexing when he is 5 months old.
His adoption fee is $450 and this includes desexing, vaccinations, flea and worm treatments, and microchipping. 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.
