NOTE: You are unable to meet Finlay until/unless you have been notified that you are a successful applicant. An adoption cannot be approved unless you are able to come to the shelter to meet Finlay in person and bring any dogs you currently have with you
What I need in my new home:
• Puppy preschool, Puppy primary school, continued training and socialization.
• TRAINING TRAINING TRAINING. It's ESSENTIAL I receive training in all aspects of my life so I can be the best dog I can be when I'm older.
• SOCIALISATION is as important as training a puppy. Taking me to lots of different places, meeting lots of people (children, men, woman et) and meeting lots of dogs and other animals will ensure I grow into a social and well adjusted dog.
• I am a very shy & timid puppy - I really want your love but can be skittish and will run and hide if I feel threatened. I will require a quiet and gentle family who will give me all the time, love, TLC and socialisation so that I learn that the world is not such a scary place.
• Another dog for company that has an outgoing nature would be ideal for me to help me come out of my shell
• Daily walks, trips to the park or beach, playtime in the backyard
• Further training with basic doggie manners
• Rides in the car
• An active family as I will have lots of energy when grown up
• To be allowed inside with my family
• Secure Fencing (6ft Colorbond or equivalent)
• Lots of toys and mental stimulation
• A diet of good quality dry food to help keep my teeth clean
• Lots of love and attention
Things that I don't want in my new home:
• To be left alone in the backyard without any interaction
• Not to be allowed inside with my family
• Never to go on a walk or rides in the car
• Small children due to being mouthy & bouncy
My best features:
• Super sweet but shy nature
• Happy to hang out with other dogs but I may be a bit scared at first
• Quiet natured
Where I need to improve / Training required
• I am a very nervous & shy puppy - as mentioned above a gentle family with a gentle approach and lots of time, TLC, love & socialisation is needed so that I learn the world is not such a scary place.
• I require basic training, socialization, on lead training, puppy preschool and puppy primary school so that I grow up to be a well adjusted doggo - this is even more important as usual due to my fearful nature
• Being a teething puppy I will require lots of toys to chew and amuse myself with to help keep me occupied and mischief free.
