About Stuart
Hi, my name is Stuart.
I am about 1 year old and on the larger size of medium or smaller large.
I’ve lost my front leg but it doesn’t seem to phase me and I’ve got heaps of character and a real zest for life.
I love playing and get a bit bored if things aren’t fun enough.
I’m very keen to learn things and I’m pretty good at adapting to change.
I love pats and snuggles.
I love playing with my friend Blackie and meeting other dogs.
I might need a more experienced home as I have a lot to learn about my new environment.
I can get a bit boisterous and just need some reassurance and a calm hand.
I’d love to learn everything and with a bit of patience and consistency, this is totally achievable.
I love food so this should make training pretty easy.
I don't know how I will react to cats or other pets.
I came into the care of the famous "dog lady of Yuendumu" in the NT. I was living at the www.warlu.com art centre mixing with lots of people of all ages and other dogs.
I flew from Alice Springs to Melbourne and I’m in foster care in Coburg north
I am desexed, vaccinated, and parasite treated.
Adoption details
WHEN APPLYING PLEASE PROVIDE ANSWERS TO ALL OF THE QUESTIONS BELOW.
1. Have you had a dog before is so, when, size, and age? (not if you have looked after someone else's dog)
2. Who makes up your home, how old are they, what is their relationship to the applicant, and are they all ready to come to a meet and greet if this is offered?
3 Most dogs, puppies, and young cannot be left alone for long hrs e.g more than 4hrs at a time. How will you deal with this issue?
4 If you want a puppy how will you deal with the work involved i.e. toilet training, chewing, mouthing - those sharp teeth - jumping up, going to puppy classes?
5. How will you cope with all these issues if you have children (how old are your children?)?
6. A dog is not just for the children so why do the parents want the puppy and how will you provide the constant supervision and boundaries needed?
7 Have you considered that a dog or a puppy cannot immediately be taken to a dog park or cafe and need to slowly understand all the new sights, sounds, people, dogs, etc of their new environment?
8 If necessary how will you seek additional one on one training for you and your dog?
9 Where will the dog sleep at night?
10 How will you provide for any veterinary costs?
11. How will you cope with behavior issues should they arise?
12 If you rent have you obtained written approval for a dog?
13 If you own an apartment have you obtained written approval from the body corporate?
14 We cannot provide any more information about the eventual size or breed of the dog. Have you considered this?
15 If you are offered a meet and greet and it is felt by all that the dog or pup is a good fit for your family, we expect you to be ready to take the dog home/adopt at the time. So are you ready now?
We cannot hold dogs as space in foster care is needed for other dogs.
Thank you
