🐾 PAWS OUT THE DOORS – SEPTEMBER SPECIAL $90 🐾 Spud – Kelpie X 🥔 ABSOLUTELY NOT A POTATO — PLEASE STOP ASKING 🥔 Hello, Spud here. Now before we go any further, I would just like to clear something up. No, I am not a potato. No, I do not look like one. And quite frankly, I am getting a little tired of the assumptions. I walk, I wag, I zoom — potatoes do none of these things. When you first meet me, I can be a little unsure and timid. I like to take a moment to work out who you are, what you’re about and whether you seem trustworthy. But give me a little time and patience and it really doesn’t take me long to come out of my shell. And once I do? Well…you may wish I came with a volume button. I am a very vocal boy and I absolutely love to chat. I have opinions, updates, observations and apparently a lot to say about absolutely everything. You won’t need a radio with me around. Now, I do need to be upfront about one thing. I can be a bit protective of things I consider mine, which the humans call resource guarding. Because of this, I'm looking for a dog-free home where I can be the only four-legged boss. I think I'd be much happier having my own space, my own things and all the love and attention to myself! Once I’m comfortable though, that softer side of me really starts to shine. I do love people, but I’m also quite an independent fellow. I don’t need to be glued to your side all day long. Sometimes I’m perfectly happy wandering off, doing my own thing and minding my own business. Probably thinking about why anyone ever looked at me and thought “potato.” Honestly. What I’m really hoping for is a home that understands that not every dog walks in full of confidence. Some of us need a little patience before we show you who we really are. And who am I? A sweet, funny, chatty boy with a gentle heart, an independent streak and plenty of personality once I know I’m safe. I don’t need you to rush me. I just need you to give me the chance. And maybe stop calling me a potato. That would be a very good start. 🥔 Spud is one of our September PAWS OUT THE DOORS dogs and his adoption fee is just $90. Spud will be desexed once in carer this is covered by Scruffer Lovers.
