About Cruise ~ BC x Kelpie x Staffy (on trial 25/11/18)
Cruise is a 9 week old, male, Border Collie x Kelpie x Staffy puppy. He is a placid and loving boy who is looking forward to finding his forever home.
Cruise is one of a litter of five - 2 Boys and 3 girls. They love to play and get along very well with each their. He loves his human companions and meeting new friends. All he needs is a warm home and a family to make his life complete.
Cruise is showing great potential and, being a pup, he will be easy to train. This mix of breed show great loyalty and love to please their owners. 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.
Like every pup, Cruise will thrive with early socialisation and exposure to many different people, sights, sounds and experiences. This will help to ensure he grows to be a well rounded guy. He will be wonderful family dog.
He still has so much to learn about the world and life and will benefit from regular contact with another dog. It would be a big plus if you have a friendly adult dog as a teacher, companion and playmate for Cruise. 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.
Cruise needs to be welcome inside when people are home. Cruise currently sleeps outside in a sheltered area with his siblings. He is ok to sleep outside so long as he has adequate shelter and is not alone. He is not a jumper, but you will need good fencing with no small gaps.
Cruise's siblings: Kia, Milly, Olly and Diesel are also available for adoption.
As Cruise 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 Cruise, please email his foster mum Renee at renee_gordon@yahoo.com.au. Cruise is in care in Wyee, NSW (south of Newcastle).
Cruise's adoption fee is $550. This includes his desexing, 1st and 2nd vaccination, microchipping and he is up to date with his flea and worm treatment. You can see all of our available dogs at www.dogrescuenewcastle.com.au
