About Twix
All About Me and My Unique Personality:
Twix is an absolutely delightful goofy puppy!
She is gorgeous inside and out.
She is a typical Kelpie. Very intelligent with seemingly endless energy to play! Her perfect home would be just as active as she is, with lots of stimulation to keep her occupied and fit.
Twix can be quite timid at first, but warms up to new people very quickly. Especially if you have cuddles or treats on offer!
Once settled and comfortable she is very happy, playful and affectionate. She loves to be with her people and has been my little shadow since joining our little family.
She has endless love to offer a lucky new family who will also enjoy the bonus of the cutest little puppy snores when sleeping on top of you on the lounge.
She is very into snuggles and is really enjoying season 3 of Stranger Things.
My Ideal Home:
A high energy, active home with at least 1 other young energetic pup to play with.
A home looking for a puppy, with most of the hard work done! This sweet girl is house trained, sleeps the night, walks on a lead and has lovely manners at dinner time!
She is just a pup so still has some training to go. She is very smart and picks her training up quickly. She will respond well to ongoing training and encouragement.
Twix struggled in a shelter environment as lots of pups do. She was quite timid and standoffish with new people. She is far more relaxed and comfortable in a home environment and in the presence of another pup.
The behaviourist working with her prior to foster care recommended a quiet home (preferably no young kids) with other high energy and confident dogs.
What is Known About My Background:
Twix was surrendered to the RSPCA in July.
She struggled with anxiety in the shelter environment and was quite timid and nervous of new people. However has been much happier and playful in a relaxed home environment.
How Do I Interact with Kids, Dogs, Cats and Other Pets:
The shelter matched her with 4 different dogs in care that ranged in energy level and play style and she has proven to be very adaptable socially and picks up on cues well.
I haven’t seen her with a cat yet but I suspect she would be more inquisitive than aggressive.
She didn’t show any fear when interacting with my nephew (7) however he was very calm and confident around dogs.
