About Nugget
Hello! My name is Nugget.
The staff and volunteers at Blue Cross have fallen in love with me, can you blame them? I am definitely a very handsome young man. I mean, just look at my eyes, don't they shine like diamonds in the sky?
I have such a friendly and gentle personality, and I love spending time with my hoomans giving them lots of kisses and cuddles. I love nothing more than snuggling up to my hoomans whilst they are having lunch on the couch, and maybe even getting a bite of their sandwich from time-to-time! My new home must allow indoor access and the ability for me to be close to the people I love.
The staff think I had a pretty sad life prior to arriving at the shelter and, as a result, I am a very anxious boy. I don't like being left alone and really need my new home to run smoothly with a stable and predictable routine. I am looking for a home where someone will be home with me most of the time, and preferably with an experienced dog owner who has had anxious dogs in the past. Daily exercise is a must for me, as is continuing my socialising skills with other dogs. I have met a few dogs during my stay at Blue Cross and have had positive experiences, however I will still need an owner who is willing to continue this.
I will also love to continue my positive reinforcement training. I am a very smart boy, and super eager to learn new things! Due to being nervous, positive reinforcement is the only training method that is suited to me. Mental stimulation and enrichment are very important for a dog like me too! The staff at Blue Cross are always happy to discuss enrichment ideas with interested families.
I am not suitable to go home with young children, so will need a mature home with children over the age of 16 years.
Can you give me my fur-ever home? Please contact Blue Cross Animals Society of Victoria to make an appointment to visit me. Cannot wait to see you! Woof!
