I've been adopted!
About Lonnie
Say hello to Lonnie. He is a tiny 5kg dachshund X around 12 months old, and he is an absolute darling with the sweetest of natures.
Lonnie could easily be adopted into most households; he would be great with kids, and he likes to be around other dogs and is happy to play and share his toys. He isn’t at all bossy, just wants to be a friend, and he expects other dogs to be the same. He doesn’t expect anyone to snap at him, and if it happens he is quite shocked, but he bounces back and carries on as if nothing happened. This little boy is a real lap dog too, so he would also suit a household with no other dog, providing he wasn’t left alone for long periods and was integral to the family’s life; he is a lap dog and a cuddler, so he must be able to follow his destiny. His destiny definitely involves a couch or an armchair, your lap, and hopefully your bed.
We haven’t taken Lonnie on any long trips, but he has been good in the car during short ones, and was very interested to know what was passing by if only he was tall enough to look out the windows!
This little boy loves his food and dinner time is his favourite time of the day. He could easily put on weight if all his wishes were indulged, so his owner will need to be strong enough to keep his waistline in mind.
A regular walk and all your love and attention will keep this little boy happy. For more information place call Caroline on 4930 5110 or patersonvalleydr@gmail.com
Lonnie is in foster carer in Newcastle. Lonnie's adoption fee is $450 and he is desexed, vaccinated, and will be lifetime registered on the completion of his trial.
Adoption details
We require an initial application over the phone or in writing and then if a dog seems a match we can arrange a meet and greet at a local park or the foster carers home. If the meet is successful we then arrange a yard check and if that is satisfactory we require full payment on picking up the dog.
We then give a 2 week trial and if in that time it is not working we will refund all but $50 for admin costs. We also require that the adopter returns our dogs back to us at any time in its lifetime (without a refund) for us to rehome.
This pet has been adopted and found love with its new family.
