About Melba
Please note, all adoption enquiries are required to complete a full adoption application and sending enquiries will redirect you to the application www.ppar.com.au/adoption-application/
Please complete the application rather than send enquiries.
ONLY APPLICATIONS WITH AN EXISTING CONFIDENT DOG WILL BE CONSIDERED.
Melba is a very timid girl who came into care very much into hiding under everything and very scared of the world. But with love and patience, she is coming out of her shell and really loving the world around her.
Melba is fine with all other dogs - she's always looking for their approval. Give her time and she will warm up to everyone. She must have a friendly dog in her forever home who will help show her that the humans and the world are really ok. She is not a fan of cats.
Melba hasn't met any children in foster care, however we believe she will be fine with older children (12+) who aren't likely to scare her with their noise and actions.
She is a Border Collie so her mind is ticking over, but at the moment she is happy with lots of hugs as she is scared of new places. The lead and going out for walks are a part of this, but she is coming along in leaps and bounds.
Melba can jump really well, being only 12kg at the moment, and even though she will not go anywhere unfamiliar she will need at least a 5ft fence. She has a medium energy level and is toilet trained.
She will flourish as an inside / outside pup, and as long as she gets lots of love she will return it 100 times over.
