Please note that I live with my husband (we are in out mid 30's) our baby daughter (born December 2016) and have a fur child of our own called Tui. Tui was dumped in a beer box with his litter mates at 3 days old in Mackay. We got his DNA tested and the results say he is mainly Australian Cattle Dog X Sloughi (Arabian Greyhound), with a little Stumpy Tail Cattle Dog, Australian Koolie, Labrador and Whippet. Tui was born in May 2014, weighs 19kg, loves play dates- always happy but sometimes timid in new situations, give him a ball and he is your best friend! When you arrive at our house he will bark his head off because he will want you to play ball with him. If another dog joins him he is happy to share the ball.- more a follower than a leader, mostly submissive. A meet and greet is essential to make sure we are all happy that they get along. He is a very mild mannered boy, a lot of people think he is a girl because he is so gentle. He tends to match the energy level of his fur visitor - sometimes he runs around like a lunatic with the other dog, sometimes he just potters around the house and sleeps. TREATS -In summer he gets homemade doggy ice blocks to eat, your dog will be offered one too! A clam shell pool is always available when they feel like a swim. OVERNIGHT SLEEPING ARRANGEMENTS -The dogs will sleep in our laundry so that they are safe and secure and don't chase our native wildlife. I have had some dogs that need to sleep in our bedroom as they need to be close to humans. Please see photo album titled 'Accommodation for dogs' for photos. INDOOR/OUTDOOR ACCESS -When the humans are home they will have access to the house (weather dependant) and the yard (three sections - front, middle and back). When the humans are not home you can choose to either have your dog outside with Tui or inside (in the laundry) with the fan on (in summer). I rarely go out of the house if i have fur visitors, but if i do it may be for a few hours. In the laundry I have a security camera set up that i can access via an app on my phone. This allows me to check on them to see how they are going. The camera also allows me to hear what is going on, as well allow me to speak to them to reassure them if they are barking. Outside they will have protection from the elements in the entertainment area or under the house where there are a number of bed options. We have three high fences and the front fence is lower (1.2m). Tui was a digger when he first arrived, so we have placed wooden sleepers, where necessary, along the perimeter of the fence. You must provide your little one's bed, toys (to make them feel a little at home) and food (so they don't get so upset tummy). PET SITTING IN PETSITTER’S HOME (dogs only).
