Hi! I’m Bandit and I’m looking for a new family to call my own.

APPLICATION PROCESS APPLIES FOR Bandit
PLEASE COMPLETE THE BELOW APPLICATION FORM
https://forms.gle/FPXhkeeQp5LXxfcJA

NOTE: You are unable to meet Bandit until/unless you have been notified that you are a successful applicant. An adoption cannot be approved unless you are able to come to the shelter to meet Bandit in person and bring any dogs you currently have with you.

What I need in my new home:
• To be allowed inside with my family
• Secure Fencing (6ft Colorbond or equivalent)
• Lots of toys and mental stimulation
• Lots of love and attention
• A quiet & mature family/household - this is what I am used too
• Short regular walks, trips to the park or beach, playtime in the backyard
• I can be shy at first so I need a family who’ll allow me to grow in confidence in my own time
• A family that will love and care for me during my twilight years
• I need to be the only dog at home, this is what i am use to and i dont have much tolerance for other dogs. I am ok be around other dogs when out & about on a walk, at the beach etc. however I am not interested in interacting with them.

Things that I don’t want in my new home:
• To be left alone in the backyard without any interaction
• Not to be allowed inside with my family
• Never to go on a walk or rides in the car
• No young children as I can be a bit shy in new situations and with new people and little ones may accidently scare me. Older children who will be involved with my training should be ok.
• No other dogs - I don't mind passing them and saying hi when out and about but I do not have much tolerance for them
• Cats, rabbits, guinea pigs & livestock

My best features:
• Wiggle butt
• Gentle & placid
• I am a generally well-mannered dog
• I love attention and having snuggles with my humans
• I know my basic doggie commands
• I walk well on lead
• I appear housetrained
• Love to snooze on the couch

Where I need to improve / Training required
• I walk well on lead, unless I want to go in another direction, then I tend to pull harder
• I am social with other friendly dogs however I will react if they are too full on or reactive to me, further socialisation is recommended.
