Poppy

Hello, I am Ori. I am looking for my furever home. I would love a family of my own who will allow me to be inside, treat me as a member of my family and include me in family adventures. I will need the usual things to help me grow to be the best dog ever eg a comfy bed, toys, delicious food and treats, daily mental and physical exercise and loads of love and attention. Continuing my training would be an added bonus for me too.

If you think I might be the perfect match for your family please apply to adopt me today - www.rspcaqld.org.au/expression-of-interest-to-adopt

Adoption Price: $499

A few things to consider before welcoming a puppy into your life:

Puppies are trying to figure out how the human world works & they need guidance with this. Slow, positive introductions to new experiences can help build confident, resilient pups. It is very important to reward the behaviours that you like as these behaviours will then get repeated by the puppy as they seek out reinforcement. Praise, food, toys & play are great positive reinforcers.

Puppies CHEW... ALOT!! Be mindful of providing lots of suitable things the chew on & manage your environment so that they cannot chew on things they are not supposed to. Puppy pens & crates are invaluable when it comes to controlling what puppies can have access to. They also give puppies a safe space to eat, rest & play.

Puppies need months of guidance for toilet training - it won't happen in 1 day. Repetition & consistency are key when it comes to raising happy, healthy pups with nice manners. Never punish your puppy for going in the wrong place -reward them for going in the right place.

Puppies are busy, curious, energetic, love to chew on things & require a lot of time & effort put into helping them thrive in a human world. Children must be taught the correct way to behave around puppies & be reminded that they are not toys. Interactions between young kids & puppies should always be supervised.

Quality sleep is vital for puppies & they also require a high-quality diet for optimum development.

The puppies' adoption fee is $499 each which includes their desexing, health check, microchip, & up-to-date vaccinations as well as flea & worm treatments.
