Hi, I am Inneka, a young pup that is bound to win your hearts. I am a confident, happy and interactive pup who LOVES a smooch from humans and dogs alike. I am VERY cheeky, a bit too cheeky sometimes, and love to chew, chew, chew on anything my sharp wee teeth can find. I am trying very hard to learn what is a toy and what is off limits, but I am still only a baby so will need my new family to be patient with me until I work things out.

I love to play both indoors and outdoors and don’t mind being left alone for a couple of hours if my people need to be out but would really prefer my new family to have me with them as much as they can. I am learning to walk on a harness and have lovely manners at the cafes and sports events that I have been to. As I am not fully vaccinated yet, I have gone out in a puppy pram, but I love to see all the new things around me. I am a very sensible pup for my age really, until I see food, which I am COMPLETELY obsessed with and will become an absolute pest around if not firmly controlled and taught what food I am allowed to eat and what food is for people.

I absolutely adore children but do get super excited when I am around them. Sometimes I give kisses with my teeth, and because of this, I cannot go to a family with children under 10 years old just in case I accidentally hurt them. I need to have a confident dog friend to live with, or well-behaved dog friends to play with on a regular basis, to help teach me how to behave and to put me back in my place when I become too cheeky. This dog would need to be very tolerant though as I am relentless when I play and don’t stop until I fall asleep. I am very confident around cats as well but may chase them in fun if they run away, so cats that stand their ground would be completely fine for me to live with.

I currently sleep in a crate, and generally sleep all night until my tummy say it is time for breakfast or I need a midnight wee and munch of possum poo. I am trying hard with my toilet training but have occasional accidents when my people miss me asking to go outside.

As a cheeky young pup, I have the potential to learn inappropriate behaviours if I am not properly guided as I grow up. My new family needs to make a firm commitment to taking me to obedience school and following through with training for me to grow up to be the best that I can be. I already sit when I am waiting for my food and am learning to sit and calm down when I get over-excited. I respond well to a water squirt when I am too excited to listen and thrive on positive praise when I am focused and paying attention.

Do you think I am the pup your family has been waiting for? Be quick because I’m going to be snapped up fast. Apply now!!
