About Indy
Indy is an adorable and spritely 5-year-old Jug x Chihuahua. She is full of life and loves to snuggle in your arms or get a good back scratch in between playtime. Her sweet nature and soulful eyes draw everyone to her, and she knows how to work it! Her best buddy is Diesel, and she is never far from his side - seeing them snuggle together is about as cute as it gets. Her foster parents tell us she entertains herself and them, overseeing all backyard bird activity.
Indy (and Diesel's) ideal forever home:
Indy's ideal forever home will be with her much-loved brother, Diesel. They are very attached to each other and are available for adoption as a package deal. We do not wish to separate them, as they are happiest when they are together and are visibly depressed when separated. They have both really thrived since being in foster care together (they were originally part of a foursome) and having some quiet time, as well as some boundaries and structure in place. They will make good use of a grassy yard, where they can spend time playing and chasing each other. As much as these two love each other, they also need lots of human love, attention, and company - we worry that they have missed out on this in their previous home. They both seem to get on well with other doggies, so we don't anticipate any socialisation issues. They have not been tested around other animals or children, but both have very sweet natures.
Indy (and Diesel's) story:
Diesel and Indy, along with two other doggies, were left behind at a rental property for over a week after their previous owner was evicted. After being contacted by concerned staff at the real estate agent, we worked with local council rangers and the real estate to bring these doggies to safety. We understand that they have all spent much of their life in the backyard without much supervision, resulting in Diesel being hit by cars at least twice and none of the doggies having had the opportunity to learn much about the outside world.
Diesel and Indy are toilet trained and have both learnt to use a doggy door in their foster home, so are used to going in and out of the house as they like. They are both great on lead and love going for walks together, where they can sniff to their hearts content and learn more about the big wide world. They can't wait to meet their new family!
Diesel and Indy's combined adoption fee is $700. If you have space in your heart and home for these two precious critters, then please get in touch today and let us know! They will not disappoint; we can assure you of that!
Medical notes
Indy came into season only days after arriving in our care - we dread to think what might have happened had she still been in her previous situation. She has now been desexed, vaccinated and is up to date with all flea, tick and worming prevention. Indy has been given a clean bill of health, following her veterinary examination.
