Megan & Romeo

Romeo came into our lives at the end of January after things hadn’t quite worked out in a previous home. We were told he just needed a chance, and a bit of time, and those words couldn’t have been more true.

When he first arrived, Romeo was nervous and standoffish. For the first few weeks, he kept mostly to himself, taking his time to observe and adjust. But with each passing day, we began to see glimmers of the gentle, goofy soul hiding underneath.

As the weeks turned into months, Romeo began to relax, and his gorgeous personality slowly unfurled. Exactly three months after he arrived, Romeo made a very important decision: he claimed the couch as his own… and hasn’t looked back since! These days, Romeo is thriving. He loves his daily “walkies” and takes his sniffari duties very seriously (though he’s still working on walking in a straight line… swerving is kind of his thing). He’s an early riser and insists on morning cuddles to start the day off right.

Routine is everything to Romeo, especially when it comes to dinnertime! He has a special love for anything plush, particularly his beloved Bruce the Shark. He's also developed a hilarious habit of hoarding random household items and has a soft spot for shredding Woolies paper bags (one is never enough). And if you can’t find your uggs, chances are Romeo’s off somewhere giving them a thorough lick! Romeo has the sweetest, most gentle nature. He’s kind, sensitive, and endlessly endearing.

The early growing pains were real, but watching him come out of his shell has been one of the most rewarding experiences of our lives. We’re so lucky to have him.

Love Megan

Lee

2 years old

How handsome is this young chap! Mr Lee here is a stunning, sleek, shiny boy that is just as sweet as he is handsome. Lee is still a young one getting to know the ropes so he can be a bit silly and on the go but he does sometimes step back and take it all in. He can be a little shy in new situations but soon forgets what he was worried about and is back to his usual playful self. We think Lee may suit living with children 10+ and maybe another medium or larger companion. He has requested a backyard though please as he wants to show you his epic zoomies and play till its nap time!

Chonk ARP

2 years old

Don’t be fooled by his name, he isn’t a “Chonky Boy” but we think the name still suits him. Mr Chonk does however love a little treat or two so this should make training a breeze, as long as he doesn’t give you those puppy dog eyes for too many! Chonk is a confident and enthusiastic boy and we think that he may suit homes with children 10 and over and possibly another dog of any size.
