About Zac and Charlize
Zac and Charlize are a bonded pair of pure bred Lhasa Apsos /. They are 3 years old and spent most of their lives in a puppy farm in very sad conditions being used to breed and make a living for the owner They were rescued last April by Paterson Valley Dog Rescue and have been in a loving environment since then.
Charlize was found to be pregnant and so her last litter was born here in warm and safe conditions . She was allowed to raise her puppies for as she long as she wanted rather than have them ripped away from her at a few weeks old to be sold to a pet store.
Charlize weaned them herself at 7 weeks and now has recovered from her mothering duties and has had her vet work done which included a dental , and desex
Zac had all his vet work done in April and was originally rehomed but he found living in a new environment unsettling so he returned to wait for Charlize so they can be rehomed and stay together forever
Lhasa Apsos are non shedding sturdy little dogs that love to laze around in the warm sun and keep watch over your home
They are not particularly active energetic dogs , and dont need a lot of exercise. A good size garden for a play and sniff around and maybe a short stroll is all they need .
Zac in particular is a little wary of being on a lead and loud noises and a busy household with a lot of people coming and going wouldnt work for them. Charlize is suspicious of tall men to start with but will accept them if she knows theya re not going to take her babies away.
Both of them are fine with women and children and all other dogs
They have non shedding coats which require clipping very regularly as it grows quite thick and long . They are both very well behaved at the groomers
They are not suitable for apartments as they need a garden to have access to as neither of them are totally comfortable on leads.
The home for Zac and Charlize will be a quiet one where they can adjust slowly to another change. Both of them have settled well into foster care and as they both take a little while to get used to new people, especially men, the new family needs to be understanding
Zac and Charlize live inside , sleep inside, use a doggy door and are no trouble at all . They are a sweet , loveable pair who have survived the horrors of a puppy farm and are now looking for their perfect forever home , however long it takes.
They are in foster care in Hinton near Maitland and are desexed, vaccinated and life time registered

Adoption details
We require an initial application over the phone or in writing and then if a dog seems a match we can arrange a meet and greet at a local park or the foster carers home. If the meet is successful we then arrange a yard check and if that is satisfactory we require full payment on picking up the dog.
We then give a 2 week trial and if in that time it is not working we will refund all but $50 for admin costs. We also require that the adopter returns our dogs back to us at any time in its lifetime (without a refund) for us to rehome.
This pet has been adopted and found love with its new family.
