About Winnie
** Introducing Winnie!! **
Winnie is a 5 month old Dachshund x (we suspect the cross is Pygmy Water Buffalo but this hasn’t been confirmed!). She is about as tiny as pups get here at HNE and weighs around 6kgs. In addition to being deaf, she is also visually impaired.
Winnie has all of her basics down pat and can sit, drop, stay and come following both touch and sign commands.
This stunning little lady is full of personality! She loves people and dogs alike and would do best in a home with a patient dog larger than she is who doesn't mind some rough-housing, or a larger calm dog. Although Winnie adores children, she is best suited to a family with children aged 5 and up. Winnie isn’t suited to a home with cats, pocket pets or poultry.
Winnie is quite an energetic girl but is easily entertained with just a short walk each day and play-time at home. She requires an adopter who is willing to continue her training. She is a very quick learner and will do anything for cheese (who knew Pygmy Water Buffaloes liked cheese?!?).
Winnie does like to think of herself as a graceful, elegant Pygmy Water Buffalo and likes to practice water aerobics when given the opportunity. She also likes to dress up when she goes out by wearing her ears inside out (presumably to make her ears more 'horn like' to more closely resemble her Pygmy Water Buffalo ancestors). She loves to keep an eye on her people, throw her toys around and snuggle with her canine foster siblings.
Miss Winnie is a sweet, happy little girl who would love to find a forever home of her own (no previous Pygmy Water Buffalo experience needed!). She is microchipped, vaccinated, desexed and parasite treated.
Winnie is currently located in Canberra, ACT.
*Interstate adoption is available, with transport costs payable by the adopter.*
Medical notes
Winnie is deaf and visually impaired.
Adoption details
Hear No Evil's Adoption process:
1st Step * You contact us to obtain an adoption application, and discuss the dog of interest.
Once the application is completed and returned it will be assessed for suitability.
2nd Step * A Meet and Greet with the dog and all members of the adopting family and and current dogs is arranged where possible.
This usually coincides with a Yard check to ensure the safety and security of the property on which the dog will be kept. - We understand that this is not always possible in interstate adoptions and this will be discussed on your initial contact.
3rd Step *Payment of the Adoption fee in full. The dog is then handed over with any belongings, and all relevant paperwork and records.
Transport arrangements are the financial responsibility of the Adopting party. Hear No Evil are happy to assist with departure preparations and ensuring the dog makes its transport connection.
Final step * Once the 14 day 'settling in' period has ended, the change of ownership microchip details are submitted, and the adoption is officially finalised.
