About Little ~ 4mo Border Collie x ~ On Trial 15/10/16
Hi, my name is Little and I’m a female border collie x, just over 4 months old. I am very smart, active and independent.
I have been named Little because when I first came into care I was rather little, but I have fattened up now and have really grown into my personality. I love to play with other dogs (and show how fast and agile I am) and meet your visitors - I am polite and won’t jump up or push through doors. I have learnt to sit, stay, lie down and come when called (well most of the time) and am toilet trained.
I’m happy to play outside with my toys while you are out and I don’t bark or get anxious when you leave. I am happy to sleep inside or outside and would love another dog in the family. Being a working dog, I will need ongoing mental stimulation and exercise with my new family.
I do like being around people and knowing that you are close, but I am a bit timid when you grab at me and am still getting use to being on a lead. I will need a bit more training and encouragement to feel happy being handled. I am looking forward to going to my new family who can give me lots of care and training and in return I will be a very loyal and much loved companion.
For more information or to meet Little, please contact her foster carer Lee on 0477 056 801 or email lsee@live.com.au. Little is located in Newcastle, NSW and is available for adoption interstate.
Little's adoption fee is $500 and she 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.
