Meanwhile please keep us notified of all your club and

All the best from Cathie’s Column.

Dog of the Week

Precious Panda

Panda is a four year old Staffy cross. She is
an exceptionally friendly, sweet dog.

Her tails never stops wagging. She is child
friendly for children over ten.

She does jump up but in a friendly manner.
Our trainer says: “Copes with kids rough and
tumble play”.

She can be a bit reactive to other dogs on
lead and is not suitable around cats. She has a
short coat and weighs around 22kgs.

She needs a home with a garden and would
suit a part time worker. Panda is desexed,
C5 vaccinated, heart worm free and micro-
chipped. Her adoption fee is $400.

For further details contact DoggieRescue on
