About Ada- Dingo
Ada is a beautiful adult alpine dingo. She is great with people and very affectionate, belly rubs are her absolute favorite. Ada walks well on lead and is ok in the car. Ada knows how to sit and is very intelligent, food motivated and eager to learn if her new owners would like to continue her training.
Ada is good with adults and kids, she is friendly even around new people/strangers and loves being the center of attention. She is one of the most social, friendly dingoes around humans that we have ever met!
Ada is not good with dogs she does not know and need to be slowly introduced to new dogs. Ada cannot go to dog parks or be let off lead around new/strange dogs. Ada would prefer not to live with other female dogs or dingoes. She prefers people to other canines and would need slow careful introductions if she was to live with another dog, she could live with a desexed male but can be quite selective with her choice of friends.
Ada has some experience living indoors and has been toilet trained in the past (but might need a refresher as she has been living outdoors the past few years).
Being a dingo Ada is not suitable to be let off-leash in unfenced areas as he will not come back. Dingoes should be kept on leash outside your yard. Like all dingoes, Ada has a high prey drive and is not suitable to with cats, pocket pets or birds.
Ada can not live in an apartment.
Fencing requirements:
Ada is a high content dingo
A high content dingo typically has two dingo parents or a large amount of dingo genetics. High content dingoes are often known as “pure dingoes”. High content dingoes have much stricter fencing requirements due to their climbing ability. You will need ONE OR MORE of the follow BEFORE an adoption trial for a high content dingo can begin.
- A 2m colour-bond or paling fence with nothing leaning against or near the fence line
- A 1.8m fence (of any sturdy material) with a 45 degree inward facing over-hang of 60cm to prevent climbing (see here: https://sanctuarysos.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/cat-proof-fence-barrier-to-keep-cats-safe-in-the-garden.jpg ).
- A dog enclosure at least 1.8m high with either a full roof or 45 degree inward facing over-hang of 60cm to prevent climbing. Must be at least 25m square (for instance 5m x 5m or 8m x 3m)
- Mesh, concrete or similar around the base of the fence may also be required
Some manufacturers of pre-made dog enclosures include:

Another option is using construction fencing style panels from Bunnings or weldedmesh sheets and posts.
