About Sheila
Hi! I'm Sheila and I'm looking for a new family to call my own.
APPLICATION PROCESS APPLIES FOR SHEILA
PLEASE COMPLETE THE BELOW APPLICATION FORM
https://forms.gle/9Eme57zMxZcyPkqW9
What I need in my new home:
Daily walks, trips to the park or beach, playtime in the backyard
Further training with basic doggie manners
To be allowed inside with my family
I LOVE LOVE LOVE people, so I'm just as happy being an only dog getting all of your love and attention for myself
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
I have lots of energy so an active family is a must
I am a clever, young, and active doggo - I would be great for dog training, trick training, agility etc.
Doggy daycare and group socialisation classes would be highly beneficial for me.
I have never interacted with another dog before coming into the shelter so I can be unsure of how to behave around and with them! I will require a lot of positive socialisations with other dogs so that my behaviour improves and not deteriorates towards them.
Being a young puppy, I will adapt & learn easily, how I mature will only reflect you & my upbringing
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
NO CATS, NO POCKET PETS AND NO POULTRY - I find them way too exciting and will bark at and chase them
No other dogs to start with - I don't mind passing them and saying hi when out and about but I do not know how to act around them.
My best features:
Very playful
Wiggle butt
Highly food motivated
I love attention and having snuggles with my humans
Social butterfly
I am clever and eager to learn so would love a family who will teach me some cool tricks.
I LOVE toys, playing fetch and a game of tug-o-war
I love attention, hugs, kisses & head scratches
I walk well on lead for a young doggo but having daily walks should help me improve my lead skills
Exuberant & full of beans
Housetrained and used to being allowed inside
I love toys especially squeaky toys.
Where I need to improve / Training required
I will require full basic training as I've had no training experience yet
I love my food & toys so using them as a positive reward should make my training easier.
I need further training on my recall as I can ignore you if you're trying to call me back to you
I do walk quite well on the lead once settled, however I can pull if something interests me and can be quite skittish if startled so walking in a harness is recommended
The application process can take up to 2 weeks so please allow this much time for us to get in contact with you regarding whether you have been successful or not.
