About Zali ~ 4yr Old Mastiff X Boxer
Hi, I am Zali, a 4yo Mastiff x Boxer who is on the hunt for a new family. I am a big lovable girl who loves to walk and run with my foster family, going to the beach or river for a swim and being outdoors.
I only jump up when I meet new people because it’s so exciting, but my foster mum has been teaching me that this is not always a good idea and I am getting better. I don’t dig or try to escape, because I just love being at home. I love running around the backyard playing with my toys and it’s even better when someone joins in.
I have a 2yo human foster brother and I am great with him. I am very gentle around him and don’t knock him over because, I love getting cuddles from him and when he plays with me. I am happy to travel in the car, as it usually means we are off on an adventure and this excites me. When it comes to walking or being out and about, I get quite excited and will pull on my lead quite strongly, but even my own energy wears me out, so I settle down quickly. My foster mum is teaching me to stay balanced.
I sleep in an outdoor area with my furry foster sisters and brother and I tend to hog the beds. I will let you in on a secret though – I won’t say NO if you let me sleep inside though. When I do spend time inside, I just chill and become a bit of a lounge AND bed hog. I am pretty good at letting you know if I need to go to the toilet when I’m inside, but I can be a bit stubborn if I’m not ready to go outside.
I am not really fussed on what’s happening outside my yard, so I won’t bark unless someone that I don’t know comes to my yard. I am not aggressive and am great at waiting for my food – sitting at (on) your feet until I’m told.
I still need some training and would love to have a family who will take me out daily for walks or runs and on fun adventures when there is more time. I just love hanging with my peeps, but also know that there are times where I might have to be home alone and that’s ok. If I have been for a walk and have my toys, I will happily wait for you to come home.
If you think you might be the family/person for me and that I might be the friend for you, please fill out an application form and send it to Dog Rescue Newcastle. You can submit the application here https://tinyurl.com/drnadopt.
I am located within the Newcastle Area NSW and my adoption fee is $300 which includes microchipping, vaccinations and desexing. I am up to date with all flea, tick and worming treatments.
I am currently on the search for an amazing foster carer or new family to call my own. Im a good doggo and would love to come and chill with you even if its while you help me find my pawfect family. If you have any further questions or enquiries, that arent covered in my listing, you can contact Olivia horvat13@gmail.com
Adoption details
(1) The first step is to fill in our online Adoption Questionnaire:

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
