Bolt ~ male Kelpie x Cattle (On Trial 14/12/16)

Bolt is an 8 week old, male, kelpie x cattle puppy. He is a very people-oriented dog and would like to be adopted by a family who will love him and spend lots of time with him.

Bolt is a very healthy little puppy who has been raised in a home environment. He has been very well socialised with other puppies and adult dogs (small and large) and gets along well with them all. He's met lots of people and is friendly and affectionate with them.

Bolt will grow up to be a medium-sized dog. We always recommend puppy-training classes to give your new family member the best start in life. All dogs and puppies need plenty of affection, exercise, and training.

It would be a big plus if you have a friendly adult dog as a teacher, companion and playmate for Bolt. If you don't have another dog to keep him company, then there needs to be someone in the household that doesn't work full time.

Bolt needs to be welcome inside when people are home, and to sleep inside at least until fully grown. He will be wonderful family dog and is suitable for children 8 years and older. You need good fencing with no small gaps. He can't go to rural fencing (eg: mesh or wire).

Bolt's sisters – Peppa, Eadie, Penny, Willo and Zahlee are also available for adoption.

As Bolt 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 our vet for desexing when he's approximately 5 months old.

For more information or to meet Bolt, please phone his foster mum Robyn on 02 4953 7115. Please leave a detailed message and she'll ring you back. Bolt is in Glendale, NSW (Lake Macquarie, near Newcastle).

Bolt's adoption fee is $500 and includes his desexing, vaccinations and microchipping and he's been treated for fleas and worms. You can see all our available dogs at www.dogrescuenewcastle.com.au
