About Shelby ~ Kelpie x Husky (on trial 16/7/17)
Meet Shelby, a very happy 6 month Kelpie x Husky girl.
Shelby is a beautiful and playful young dog who would love to be a part of your family. She loves her toys, especially the all time favourite - the squeaky bone. Shelby likes playing with other dogs, including her sister Winter. She also loves playing with her human brother who is only 5. Shelby is fine with cats as she used to live with them.
Shelby has already learnt “sit”, “outside” and is learning “shake” and “fetch”. She will learn so much more with some ongoing training. Shelby's foster parents are working on her toilet training as she is still young, but she has had only few accidents so far.
Shelby can dig if she is bored but her parents leave plenty of toys in the backyard and it keeps her occupied. Shelby does not bark much and doesn't fret when left alone (but her sister keeps her company). She loves running outside, rubbing against your leg for snuggles and playing with her toys.
Shelby is always happy to see you come home, loves pats, is very obedient and a quick learner. She would love a nice sized back yard, someone to give her pats and cuddles, someone to take her on walks and give her love.
If you are looking for a companion to love and add an extra bit of fun and laughter to your life Shelby is the girl for you.
For more information or to meet Shelby, please contact her foster carer Danni on 0402 514 774
(text only – Danni will call after work hours) or email danniell.leishman@gmail.com. Shelby is in foster care in Heddon Greta, NSW and is available for adoption interstate.
Shelby's adoption fee is $450 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. Word format: http://www.dogrescuenewcastle.com.au/adopt/adoptionquestionnaire.docx or PDF: http://www.dogrescuenewcastle.com.au/adopt/adoptionquestionnaire.pdf
(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.
