BEAU
Staffy X-Male-dob-Feb 2010
Large Size

Beau is very protective of his kennel when greeted by strangers, but take the time to meet him out of his kennel and he a very good nature and loveable dog.Whoever takes Beau home should know he will be very protective of his new family inside there home and yard and should be introduced to strangers on leash outside the house and it is best if you let him sniff people before they try to pat him. Our trainer has socialized Beau in town, he has walked through the children’s playground and has been over to the skate park and walked among both small children and teenagers while on leash and behaved perfectly.
If introduced properly Beau is ok with other dogs. However he would benefit from some basic obedience training, and of course never leave children unattended with any dog.

DOC English white pointer x -Male  DOB  June 2009
Large Size

Doc already has some manners and will sit for his meals and treats. Doc enjoys wearing pajamas on a cold night and a raincoat out on walks in the rain. Doc also loves his squeaky toys and is often heard playing with them, he also enjoys playing fetch but will give you the run around when it comes to returning the ball.
Our dog trainer is currently working with Doc to set him up as a well behaved boy for a new home.
Below, a special write up for guidance:
Ask Doc to sit before being invited into car the same as getting out of the car. Take Doc for a long walk on leash at heel before entering the house then have Doc sit at the front door and when he’s calm, invite him in while still on the leash. Limiting his access in the house initially will help avoid territorial marking. When feeding Doc, make him sit and wait for his meals, dogs should always be fed after people. Make Doc work for all of his treats. All we are doing here is establishing good leadership skills, the more rules, boundaries and limitations we give a dominant dog the more balanced it will become. All people living in the house must stick to the program and have to be fair and consistent at all times. Of course, when Doc’s mind is calm we reward this with attention and treats and this will help to build trust and most importantly to help the people of the household remain the pack leaders. It is recommended to walk Doc every morning to create the bond that keeps the new owner as the boss.

BAZ Staffy X –Male – DOB – Jan 2010
Medium Size – 25kgs

Baz is a big smoocher. Though he may not blend well with other dogs (in particular, other males), Baz loves the company of any person willing to give him the time. For this reason, Baz doesn't appreciate being left alone for long periods of time and he can get vocal about it. He would really benefit from being in a home where he could be allowed inside the house and feeling apart of the family. Baz is definitely a water dog, he splashes around in his clam shell swimming pool in summer and would love to go to a home where he would be taken to the beach. Careful of the kind of toys you give Baz, cheap plastic toys with a squeaker won't last long so invest in some heavier duty toys that he can enjoy without you having to pick up the pieces later. Baz is also very clever, having taught himself how to open doors, so anyone interested in taking him home must be willing to continue training and make use of his smarts.
If you like the sound of a dog with a ton of character, then pop down to the kennels and meet Baz.
