About Toby ~ 10 month old Kelpie Boy (On Trial 13/5/16)
Toby is a lovely 10 month old kelpie boy. He has a very attractive grey and white coat, and is very playful and affectionate.
Being a kelpie, Toby has a lot of energy and he will need a good sized yard, as well as daily opportunities to burn off his energy. He loves walks, going for runs, and chasing a ball. He is looking for a family who will share his active lifestyle and provide him with lots of toys and activities to keep him entertained during the day.
He loves playing with the other dogs he is currently living with, so a home with existing dogs is important. Toby also requires secure fencing.
Toby loves children. He has lived his whole life with young children and has always been friendly with them. We haven’t seen Toby interact with cats and other pets, so if you have existing pets he may need to meet them first to make sure they get along.
Toby currently spends most of his day outside and evenings/overnight indoors. He is very well behaved outside and rarely barks.
As Toby is still young and hasn’t had much training, it is essential that he find a family who are willing to invest time in obedience training and housetraining.
For more information or to meet Toby, please contact his foster carer Elizabeth on 0403 796 405 or email e_hammell@hotmail.com. Toby is in foster care in Medowie, NSW (nouth of Newcastle) and is available for adoption interstate.
Toby's adoption fee is $400 and he is desexed, vaccinated, treated for fleas and worms, microchipped, and lifetime registered. 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.
