About Timothy
Hello, my name is Timothy.
I’m a 14 week old puppy from Yuendumu. I came into the care of the dog lady of Yuendumu a while ago.

We don’t know who my parents were, therefore we can’t know my exact final size.
We think I’ll be a small
Medium dog or a larger small dog.
I’m not eating a lot and I’m not growing like topsy!
But it is just a guess.
Also we don’t know what breeds are in me.
So you’ll be able to play the “guess what breed my campdog is?” for the rest of my life…
I’ve been desexed, vaccinated, microchipped and parasite treated so I’m now ready to go to my forever home. I have had a course of precautionary antibiotics because I come from the N.T. where they have e canis.
I’m
Learning a lot at my new foster carers house. I’m going on walks in the green grassy park, which is quite different to the red sand of where I come from.
I’m meeting new dogs and playing down the creek.
I do like to have fun and I especially like cuddles on the couch after an adventure.
I am learning to be alone and I’ve been sleeping downstairs to get used to being on my own.
We do have a two week trial period so if it doesn’t work out then you just return me (within the trial period) and get your adoption fee back.
We offer to take dogs back for the rest of their lives but after the trial period we don’t give a refund.
I’m being fostered in Coburg If you’d like to meet me or my new puppy friends.
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.
From what date do you want to adopt?
We cannot hold dogs as space in foster care is needed for other dogs.
Thank you
