About Desi
Meet Des (or Dessie, as he is affectionately known), a beautifully, gentle natured young dog. He is approximately 7-8 months of age and is a medium-sized mixed breed. He is rather "slim" but that's because he is living on a property where he is able to run around most of the day, which he loves doing.
His obedience training has progressed and he is a very well behaved dog, albeit a bit skittish (he is not used to the traffic and town noises). His aim in life is to please everyone around him, he does not have any meanness in him - he just is a "real delightful boy". Des would be perfectly fine around young children, in fact, he would most probably love to spend his day playing with them. He gets along with all other dogs and the animals on the propoerty where he is being fostered - and this even includes the chickens!!
Dessie had a rough start to his life and was found after being dumped as a young pup in bushland and taken to the local pound. He certainly deserves another chance at life - he has come such a long way since he was abandoned.
Dessie is vaccinated, desexed, microchipped and has had the yearly heartworm injection (Proheart SR12) effective for 12 months. He is absolutely ready to go to his new, loving home and will require a well fenced and secure yard (colourbond preferred) with a medium to large backyard for him to run around in. Being a young dog, he loves to run and would therefore suit a young family, remembering that he has a lifespan of approx.13-15 years ahead of him.
Should you be interested in knowing more about this beautiful boy, please phone Wendy on (02) 6584 7027 or email as per Pet Rescue instructions.
Adoption details
The first step is to phone or email Midcoast Dog Rescue Inc. for assessment regarding prospective ownership and pet suitability.
Adoption Application forms must be completed.
A property inspection will be carried out on properties in the Port Macquarie area so we can verify that your home and yard are suitable for the pet you’ve selected. Proof of home ownership will be required. If renting your home, a letter from the owner’s agent confirming that the pet is allowed will be required.
A 2 week trial period commences on the day of adoption. If, for any reason, the dog is returned to Midcoast Dog Rescue within the trial period, the total adoption fee paid will be refunded.
All Midcoast Dog Rescue animals come desexed, microchipped, vaccinated (up to date), vet checked ,wormed, flea and tick treated.
.......................
Midcoast Dog Rescue Inc. is trying to expand its foster carer network so that we can help more dogs in need. This is a very rewarding experience and suits a variety of people. Some people, for whatever reason, are unable to make a permanent commitment to a dog, a commitment which can last for up to 15 years. Others use the fostering experience as an interim measure before committing to permanently owning a dog. If you think you could be interested in becoming a foster carer, either on a long-term or a short-term basis, and would like more information please contact Nigel on 6584 4992 or Wendy on 6584 7027.
