Meet Stu! Available for pre adoption. Say hello to sweet Stu, a gorgeous little boy who may take a moment to work out what is happening, but once he has had a chance to observe the situation, he is more than happy to get involved! Stu is a very affectionate puppy who loves people and is quickly discovering just how much fun the world can be. He has a lovely, gentle nature and enjoys getting stuck into his puppy adventures once he knows what is going on. His slightly more thoughtful approach means he often likes to watch his surroundings first before deciding, "Yep, I'm in!" We think Stu could benefit from having a confident, well-mannered older dog around to show him the ropes and help him learn some good doggy behaviours. He may also be able to live with a dog-savvy cat, provided introductions are handled carefully and everyone is given time to adjust. Being such a young pup, Stu will need someone home with him for most of the day while he settles into his new home, learns his routines and continues developing those all-important puppy skills. Puppy school and ongoing positive reinforcement training would be a great opportunity for him to build confidence, learn some manners and make sure he grows into a happy and well-rounded adult dog. Stu is looking for a family who will give him the time, patience and guidance he needs, while also making sure there are plenty of adventures, cuddles and fun along the way. If you're after a sweet little companion who just needs a moment to check things out before joining the party, Stu might be your boy!
