About Oliver ~ 9wo Cattle X Mastiff (on trial 22/05/16)
Oliver is a beautiful little Cattledog X Mastiff puppy. He is 9 weeks old (Born February 2016). Oliver gets on great with dogs of all sizes and is very gentle with children.
Oliver came into care with his 4 siblings, he is the most gentle boy and has the softest fur. Oliver spends his days playing “rough and tumble” with his siblings and foster siblings. His favourite game is fetch the stick. Being a typical puppy Oliver will require ongoing training and to have another dog as a role model would be great. Oliver comes when he is called (most of the time) and his house training is coming along well. We strongly recommend puppy pre-school to assist with training and socialisation.
Oliver will be a medium to large dog and will require a good size yard with secure fencing and plenty of exercise. He will need to be part of the family and have access to inside and outside - he currently sleeps inside and sleeps all night in his snuggly bed.
Oliver is only a baby and requires a nutritious and balanced diet several times a day therefore he will need a home where there is someone home most of the time. His diet consists of a combination of good quality dry food, puppy milk and a combination of puppy wet food and chicken, rice and vegies. Being a puppy, he should not be left alone for extended periods as he may get into mischief.
For more information or to meet Oliver please contact his foster carer Victoria by emailing vdavies93@gmail.com. Oliver is in foster care in the Kurri Kurri area, NSW (west of Newcastle).
As Oliver is not yet desexed, he is only available for adoption to Newcastle, Lake Macquarie, Central Coast and Port Stephens because he'll need to be returned to one of our vets for desexing when he's 5 or 6 months old.
Oliver’s adoption fee is $500 which includes vaccination, worm and flea treatment and microchipping and lifetime registration. You can see all our available dogs at www.dogrescuenewcastle.com.au
Medical notes

He will need to be returned to one of our vets for desexing when he's 5 or 6 months old.
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.
