About Nyx Maddison

https://www.victoriandogrescue.org.au/about-vicdrg/adoption-and-foster-application-forms.html/
Nyx is the sweetest, most loving, playful and loyal dog. She sleeps most of the day and wiggles her whole body and trots around in a circle when she’s excited to see you. She is a quiet dog who is very in tune with your emotions and picks up on your mood and how you are feeling. She loves belly rubs, butt scratches, chilling on the couch and sunshine. She will follow the sun wherever it shines through the window in the house.
Nyx is a smart cookie who learns incredibly quickly. She is house trained and uses the doggy door. Nyx understands the commands to sit, drop, stay, on your mat and she will shake your hand. Nyx does need extra training when walking on lead. She loves being out and about and gets excited when there are any distractions – dogs, birds, cats or people and will pull hard on the leash. If you are walking in a quiet area though, she is a delight to walk. Nyx also loves the taste of shoes so you will need to keep them out of her reach.
Nyx’s home will be cat free as she is too tempted to chase them. A good sized backyard is ideal as well as fence she can’t dig under. Nyx will want a home where she can spend most of the time in the company of her person/people as she does experience some separation anxiety.
Nyx is the most loving soul. All she wants is to share her world with you!

All our dogs are desexed, C5 vaccinated with intranasal, microchipped, wormed, and flea treated. All necessary vetwork such as dentals, surgery, eye treatment are also carried out. We are no longer heartworm testing as we have not had one positive test since we began in 2006. If a dog comes to us on heartworm treatment this is continued.

Adoption details
We are a community fostercare network, not a shelter, and our dogs and cats are cared for in private homes. Note that we are very careful where we rehome our dogs and cats and we have an intensive process. If you want a quick turnaround we are not the group for you. If you seem like a good match for the dog of your choice we will organise a telephone chat, a meet and greet and a property check. We offer free assistance for six weeks for any issues, a lifetime takeback policy with full refund of the adoption fee, and will always be available to offer advice.
We care for our dogs and cats and we want you to as well. We know that genuine applicants have no trouble with this process and understand that if we refuse you a dog or cat, it is because you are not the best match for that pet.
Our commitment to the dogs and cats in our care is total and we treat each one as if we are passing on a family pet. This may not suit you so we point out that there are equally great dogs and cats available in pounds, shelters and with other rescue groups.

Please note that we do not take/make telephone calls prior to receiving an application.
Commonly asked questions and their answers are provided when you email us. Unfortunately we usually will not have time to reply to enquiries in more detail and will give priority to completed applications over enquiries. Priority will also be given to typed applications which are easier for us to read and to copy relevant parts.
We look forward to receiving your application.
