Meatball - 2 Month Old Staffy X (Trial)

This beautiful girl in care with her other 7 siblings and their mum who was surrendered to the pound pregnant.

She is a spunky little pup who loves to play with everyone!
We are guessing that she is a Staffy mix, so she will need to be properly trained from a young age. With consistent training she will make the most loyal and caring family pet.

She will reach a medium size with a solid build. It’s important to handle her with confidence and start teaching her how to walk on a leash from a young age to prevent her from pulling and becoming challenging to manage.

She currently lives in a friendly environment that welcomes her indoors and gives her yard space to run around, so this will need to continue in her new forever home. She shares her space with a variety of dogs of different sizes and ages (and even some chickens!), making her an excellent fit for a household where she can have a fur-sibling. Alternatively, she may also thrive in a home where someone is frequently present, as long as they actively socialise her regularly.

Puppies need ongoing training with their toileting, walking, jumping and overall manners - so please only apply if you are willing to put in the time to help this girl become the best version of herself.

This organisation's adoption policy is moderate. What does this mean?
(1) The first step is to fill in our online Adoption Questionnaire: https://tinyurl.com/drnadopt
(2) If the questionnaire is approved we will arrange a property check so we can verify that your home and yard are suitable for the pet you've applied for.
(3) After that we will arrange for you to meet the pet, usually at the foster carer's home, nearby park or your home.
(4) If both sides agree, then you can pay for and adopt your new family member! The two week trial begins on the day of adoption.
