About Judith
1) Generally
Good with Other Dogs albeit over exuberant
Not Good With Cats
Good with Kids + 6 yrs due size
Toilet Trained
Size 14 kgs
2) Likes, Dislikes, Fears, Endearments and Quirks
Smart, affectionate, playful, inquisitive and eager to please, Judith's puppy like charm endears her to everyone who meets her.
While quick to learn, she can also be stubborn and single minded - typical of the breed.
In the safety of home Judith is confident and happy - loves playing football and snuggles down at the same time every night.
Judith can be wary and cautions when out but sometimes over exuberant. She is learning not to rush into the space of other dogs when at the park - as she doesn't realise not everyone wants to be friends. She can be wary and cautious.
This adorable girl will have long conversations with you and indicates when she needs to go out.
Judith is frightened of water.
Already had successful entropion surgery which has resolved potential irritation to the eyes, typical of the breed.
3) Ideal Owner
Active singles or couples looking for a young, happy and affectionate companion - a commitment to some ongoing training to ensure Judith continues to make progress.
Judith is playful around kids and only tends to get overexcited when adults come home. We always recommend homes where any kids are at least 6yrs and only if gentle and calm around dogs. No dog deserves to be rough housed or exposed to a loud, chaotic environment.
Judith is ok for full time workers (9am-5pm) as long as she is a central focus when people are home. Judith prefers company but can cope alone.
She should be the only permanent dog in the home so she can have all the attention.
Judith will not suit homes where people live in very close proximity to each other with small outside areas e.g. villas, units, apartment complexes, terrace houses, strata complexes etc.
As Judith is people orientated she needs to be part of family activities.
Judith will not suit homes with residents that are:
- very young, frail, elderly,
- renters,
- novice dog owners or
- time poor.
4) Tolerance to Being Alone During the Day
Will alert to something strange but is not currently a nuisance barker.
Judith will suit any of the following:
- someone home more often than not.
- stay at home parent.
- someone that works from home.
- part time workers as long as someone is home more often than not.
- empty nesters.
- active retirees.
- full time workers (9am-5pm) as long as she is a central focus when folks are home.
5) Exercise Requirements
Medium. Judith requires daily good quality exercise and mental stimulation. Judith could be a little 'pocket rocket' at the park.
6) When ON a lead ...
Like most dogs she is ok unless distracted. She is making progress very quickly.
7) When OFF a lead ...
Never been off the lead.
8) Type of Yard Required
- Medium to large interesting and secure.
- May take advantage of an open gate and wander off but does not usually try and escape.
- Ok with shoulder height fencing.

Adoption details
ADOPTION PROCESS (simple and easy)
1. Read the dog's detailed profile thoroughly - for you to self screen
2. The Expression of Interest (EOI) form MUST be completed prior to a meet and greet.
https://www.dogadoption.org.au/expression-of-interest---adoption.html
3. Speak to the carer/owner directly for more detailed info to determine if there are any 'deal breakers' - designed to save time and avoid falsely raising hopes.
4. 'Meet & Greet' - you travel to where the dog is. If you have a current dog it must meet too. We strongly recommend all members of the family attend. Both parties may wish to report their thoughts to each other but MUST update Dog Adoption directly too.
5. The dog MUST not be taken on the day unless PRIOR ARRANGEMENTS have been made e.g. travelling more then 2 hrs round trip. In this case we need a minimum of 2 days notice. The adoption agreement and payment must be made before collection of the dog.
6. Normally, both parties have a think about the meeting, and if they wish to proceed, the adoption is completed after the adoption agreement, payment and screening is finalised.
7. A 2 week cooling off period commences once the dog arrives.

Folks who complete EOIs have a higher priority then general enquiries - due to a lack of resources. Your info is protected under Privacy Legislation.
