Foster Puppy
Looking for a puppy in Sydney?
This adorable 4 month old puppy is currently in foster care with Fetching Dogs ❤️
As a previous Dane person myself, this puppy looks very Daney and I’d be pretty confident in saying he’s likely a Dane x.
He's not on their website yet, but you reach out here:

Have you ever been stared awake by your dog who wants to let you know that you’ve slept through their dinner time…..gah, I forgot to get food out, off to the shops for the 15 year old man who gets treated like he’s a king because he’s old.
Has your dog ever consistently selected a plant to eat? Ginger does and she’s done it for years when this plant is in season. We let her consume it where we know it wouldn’t have been sprayed and after looking it up to make sure it wasn’t toxic. Would love to know what it does for her.
Your dog is probably fat because you’re feeding it too much
Miss Lilac at 8 weeks is out with her Dad learning the ropes.
The babies have done their foundations of leash walking in the yard and then the driveway. Dad gives them confidence in the big new world.
YES! We take out babies out in the world from 8 weeks! Risk vs Reward and not taking them to dumb places like dog parks.
The babies are wearing custom biothane collars from Wildhunde
Chilling out
The babies are 7 weeks old on Sunday! How did that happen?! Meet Mr Teal, he’s a dude.

What's on their heads? This is paper tape that supports their ears to stand erect whilst they're going through their rapid growth phase where ears can do all kinds of weird things. The tape sticks to itself vs skin, under the paper tape is a soft tape, taping is not painful - the ears have not been cropped.
Recycling is the cheapest of toys

Ears are NOT cropped, they are simply taped to support their position during rapid growth, this is done with paper tape.
Temperament matters 🥰
Belmont is the dad of our current litter and as you can see he’s lovely with his babies.
He’s being introduced to more than 1 puppy at a time, 2 is a nice number to control and keep an eye on especially when one’s pen*s has been mistaken for a boobie today.
Our rules for puppy interactions is keep arousal on the lower side and my preference is for the adult to lay down.
Bones and puppies
People often ask what age they can start their puppies on bones…our puppies are 4.5 weeks old, some breeders start them earlier.
Once they have their teeth and they are digesting solids well, bones are just part of the process of consuming a species appropriate diet.
Safe consumption of bones comes with a little education and common sense ie don’t give small bones to greedy dogs who can swallow them - go big
💖 Our Xolo babies are 4 weeks old, adorable, yes?
Scentwork is a pretty cool sport, it can take dogs like Ginger who are genetically weak in nerve and help bolster their confidence and elevate their levels of optimism.
Ginger was a dog that when she couldn't find the scent she would just give up or even start to shut down, she's now coming at it with a lot of enthusiasm and is able to work longer.
It's absolutely a sport I recommend for all dogs but it really can be life-changing for dogs with anxiety and similar challenges.
In this video, you see Ginger searching for the odour of Birch.
We train with The Dog Nose It.
Have you seen Antinol new easy squeeze caps?
𝗛𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘀𝗲𝗲𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗻𝗲𝘄 𝗲𝗮𝘀𝘆 𝘀𝗾𝘂𝗲𝗲𝘇𝗲 𝗔𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗼𝗹 𝗰𝗮𝗽𝘀𝘂𝗹𝗲𝘀?
The new caps are perfect for dogs and cats who find and refuse the hard caps in their meals. The new soft caps are so much easier to get open and I don’t have to worry about cutting my fingers off with the scissors 😂🤪
