About Zack *On Trial in His New Home*
*ZACK IS CURRENTLY TRIALING HIS NEW HOME - NO MORE APPLICATIONS/ENQUIRIES PLEASE* Can’t choose between which dog to adopt, then why not adopt two! Meisha (female, 10 year old Shih Tzu x Maltese) and Zack (male, 2 year old Jack Russell Terrier x) are definitely an example of ebony and ivory living in perfect harmony!
Surrendered to SARG, as their previous owner unfortunately passed away, this happy couple are looking for a new forever home who can handle all the love they have to share. While Meisha and Zack give each other space when required, this loveable duo eat together, sleep together and can even walk side by side on a splitter lead. As they have always been together, we believe it would be in their best interests to be adopted together as well.
Zack thrives on his buddy Meisha’s calming personality as they’ve never been apart, and he can be a bit nervy especially without her. He is quite timid when meeting new people though will gradually warm up to you as he gets to know and trust you. Zack tends to gravitate towards one person, which in their foster carers’ case has been the female of the house, but he’s also happy to receive love from them both now that he’s gotten used to them. Zack isn’t a toy fan but loves to play with you and once you’ve won him over he will follow you wherever you go. He thoroughly enjoys being a lap dog and will jump up on you whenever you let him. He does tend to lose hair so a regular brush and bath will keep Zack looking as handsome as ever.

Both Meisha and Zack would be best suited to a calm home environment, preferably with no small children as they want all the attention. They are quite social with other dogs when walking down the street. They aren’t yappers but will let you know when a stranger is at the door making them good little watchdogs. The pair are used to an indoor/outdoor lifestyle where they are outside when no one’s home but then inside when they’re home as they want to be around you as much as possible. Meisha and Zack are housetrained and if you had a doggie door we reckon this clever pair would put it to good use - they may not know any verbal commands such as ‘sit’, though with their eager to please natures a simple ‘no’ deters them from any unwanted behaviour.
Some chicken necks, a few of your leftovers and lots of hugs will make this adorable pair very happy indeed!

Adoption details
Please Note: SARG and our animals for adoption are located in Mildura in North-West Victoria.
Our adoption process commences with completing an Application form which you'll find at: www.sarg.net.au
The Application is then reviewed, references checked and a yard check done, then, if there are no issues, a meet and greet is organised. If all goes well the last stage is a 28 day home-trial to make sure that everyone is happy.
If the trial is successful our “stray” is then officially considered adopted and the microchip transferred into the new owners name.
If anything goes wrong SARG will always take back one of our animals :)
This pet has been adopted and found love with its new family.
