About Aqua ~ kelpie x puppy, female (On Trial 6/3/16)
Aqua is an 8 week old, FEMALE, Kelpie x puppy. She is a healthy girl and has been very well socialised with people and dogs and loves everyone she meets. I don't have a cat but I'm sure she'd be fine. A typical puppy, Aqua enjoys playing in the yard with our other dogs and tossing around all sorts of toys. She is a very loving girl who enjoys relaxing with people.
We recommend puppy training classes for all puppies. Aqua will need a daily walk, toys, and interaction with people. Puppies are a big commitment for approximately 15 years.
Aqua needs to be allowed inside when people are home, and to sleep inside. She will be great family dog and is suitable for children 7 years and older. She will grow up to be a medium sized dog. You will need good fencing with no small gaps. She cannot go to rural fencing (eg: mesh or wire). Gates need to have locks on them to discourage dog thieves (sad but true).
It would be a big plus if you have a friendly adult dog as a teacher, companion and playmate for Aqua. If you don't have another dog to keep her company, then there needs to be someone in the household that doesn't work full time.
There are 3 puppies in this litter, Aqua(female), Teal(female) and Fin(male). You can meet them all and choose your favourite.
As Aqua is not yet desexed, she is only available for adoption to Newcastle, Lower Hunter, Lake Macquarie, Central Coast and Port Stephens because she'll need to be returned to our vet for desexing when she's 4 or 5 months old.
For more information or to meet Aqua, please contact her foster mum Robyn on 02 4953 7115 and please leave a detailed message if not answered straight away. Aqua is located in Glendale, NSW (Lake Macquarie, near Newcastle).
Aqua's adoption fee is $500 and includes her 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.
