Beau

Beau is a beautiful, gentle and affectionate 2 year old Dachshund cross Koolie (approxiately 12 kilos) who is very sadly having to look for a new home because the older dachshund at home is becoming less tolerant. Although the 2 boys get along like best friends 99% of the time, the older dog has become less accepting of Beau’s energy and playfulness. Beau is an intelligent, kind and inquisitive boy who loves to play fetch, go on car rides and cuddle on the couch. He loves being with people and he is good with children.

About 10 months ago Beau came into his current family not knowing his name, not toilet trained, couldn’t walk on his lead, or know basic commands. His new family have turned his life around and made great progress with him so he is now a much loved, affectionate and well behaved member of the family. He knows his name, is toilet trained, walks on a lead and knows basic commands. Beau has had a lot of training but he did not get socialised as a puppy so he still displays some anxious behaviour around other dogs. He would be best placed in a single dog family, with a big backyard and who are committed to his ongoing training.
