Jasper

23/05/2022

MEET JASPER (B0454) I’m Jasper and I’m an almost 3 year old Male English staff, Tiger Brindle and boy do I have a story to tell. I’m recovering from major surgery, I stupidly ate a sock and it caused a huge blockage and needed to be removed. That was 2 weeks ago and I’ve recovered enough to find my forever home. I’m a super loving boy and love to be around you. I do still need ongoing training as I get so excited to see you that I sometimes forget my manners. I would be great with older children I need to be an only dog as I really do not want to share your attention or my toys. I’ve been around cats and just ignore them but they need to be very confident. I’m crate trained and will happily spend time in there while you pop out as long as I have my treats or toys, people call them enrichment stuff. I’m also house trained and really enjoy the indoor life so much so I hate cold weather and need a warm jacket when ever outdoors. I also love to talk and will back chat you if your not …

Meet Dixie (B0300) Hi there, I am Dixie. I am about 3 years old, playful, affectionate and loving. I like to be your shadow and follow you everywhere. I enjoy a game of fetch and can sit for treats. I currently live with 2 resident dogs and lots of cats but I would need a slow introduction to any animal as I like to chase, so prefer a home with no pocket pets.

The meet and greet plus our online application through Savour Life forms part of the adoption process. I am desexed, vaccinated, microchipped as well as flea and worm treated.

Lola

06/05/2022

MEET LOLA B0377 Lola is a 7 month old mixed breed female. We think Lola will be a medium to large dog. She is currently about 18kg. Lola is a very sweet, well natured and easy going girl. Things Lola likes: She is always up for walks and love a good pat. She is a smart girl and enjoys challenges of puzzle toys and playing chase with her foster-dog-brothers. She spends most of her time sleeping. Things you should know about Lola: unfortunately Lola doesn’t like being left alone, although she is learning to be okay with it. When she first came to Paws and Claws care she needed a human to be home at all times. Now however she can be left alone with her foster-dog-brothers for 2-3 hours. With more guidance we anticipate she will continue to improve and be okay with being left longer periods of time. She has done a day school with Canine Connect trainers to help build her confidence. Lola loves all humans including some gentle children she has met. Lola has met a cat and is not so sure about them. Lola has been desexed, microchipped, vaccinated, flea, and worm treated, and is …

Watts

MEET WATTS at PetStock Modbury on Saturday 30th April (B0356) Watts is a 10 week old mixed breed who will likely be a small – medium sized dog. Watts’ main breeds are blue heeler, kelpie, and jack russel. Watts is a special little pup, who is several inches shorter than his siblings.

Watts is great inside, and settles quickly at night. Like all puppies, he will need ongoing training and socialisation to ensure that he’s the best dog he can be Watts has been Desexed, microchipped, vaccinated, flea and worm treated.

Cindy

16/04/2022

EET CINDY (B0229) Hello, this beautiful girl is Cindy.She is a staffy X who is 1.5 yr old. Cindy is good with kids, other dogs and cats. She is very friendly and wants to say Hi to everyone. She loves to fetch a ball and go for walks or runs, but does not need a large amount of exercise. She is happily chilled out after 20-30min playing. She is fully toilet trained, can patiently sit and wait for her meal. She gently takes a treat from your hand without snapping. She is not a fussy eater at all and eats everything she is given. When left alone though she can be tempted to steal any food from kitchen bench tops if left available for her. She craves close human companionship, so is not one to wander or run off from her trusted owner. Cindy is a very smart intelligent girl, however she can be reactive to a leash and can sometimes pull on a lead, so some further training would not go astray. She is a good watch dog and only barks when there is something happening. Cindy is very affectionate, loves a cuddle and companionship, but gets very anxious …

Simba

13/04/2022

MEET SIMBA! Hi, my name is Simba! I’m a beautiful Staffy x Ridgeback who has plenty of love to give. I am currently living outdoors with my foster brother and sister who I love to play with all the time! When I’m not playing with them I like to chase the birds that fly over the house! I am quite well behaved and know how to sit and wait patiently for food. I am very strong on the lead but my current carer uses a non pull lead so that is best for me to reduce how much I pull. I know how to sit at corners when told to “sit” and when to walk across the road when told to “walk”. I love to play fetch but mainly run around once I have fetched because I don’t like to share my ball. I am very active and suited to a home with another dog friend to play with or someone who can spend loads of time with me and take me for regular walks. Simba has been desexed, microchipped, vaccinated, flea, and worm treated, and is currently located in a foster home in Richmond. His adoption fee is $500 …
