About Shelby ~ On Trial 12/12/20
Introducing this stunning little lady....
Shelby, a 17 month old mix of cattle/staffy/dingo. A clever and affectionate, medium size girl that takes a little time to warm to newcomers.
Shelby is happiest with another dog for company, preferably one who will play with her and join her yard zoomies. She is a timid girl that takes a little adjusting to her new environment and her people, but once you have gained her trust, the affectionate loving and playful Shelby shines!
She currently resides with 3 large dogs and has enjoyed the company of numerous foster dogs whilst in care. She lives with an older cat who she steers well clear of and some appropriately fenced chickens. Shelby is cautious around children initially until she ascertains they are not a threat.
To be eligible to adopt this amazing girl you would need to have
* A secure yard with 1.8m fences
* Another dog
* Allow her to be an inside/outside dog
* Time to exercise her & ongoing training/socialisation
* An understanding of timid dogs and their needs
* Patience to allow her to bond to you

Shelby's adoption fee is $450 and includes her desexing, vaccinations and microchipping and she's been treated for fleas and worms.. You can see all of our available dogs at www.dogrescuenewcastle.com.au

Adoption details
(1) The first step is to fill in our online Adoption Questionnaire:
https://tinyurl.com/drnadopt
If there is a phone number listed in the dog's profile then you can also phone for more information.
(2) If the questionnaire is approved you can arrange to meet the pet, usually at the foster carer's home or nearby.
(3) If that goes well we will arrange a property check so we can verify that your home and yard are suitable for the pet you've selected. We will ask to see photo ID.
(4) If both sides agree, then you can pay for and adopt your new family member! The two week trial begins on the day of adoption. More details of our Adoption Procedure on our website: https://tinyurl.com/adoptproc
We prefer payment by funds transfer and don't accept cash or personal cheques.
