Meg: Female Staffordshire Bull Terrier X looking for her furever home
Update – October 22, 2011: Meg has found a loving family who have adopted her as part of their family pack!
Meet Meg – she has been waiting at the NSW RSPCA since November 2010 for an opportunity to go to her furever home and she is really ready to have a life with a loving family.
Meg arrived at the NSW RSPCA with an injury resulting from being hit by a car and had to have her front leg amputated. Don’t let this sad start to her life fool you; Meg is a very happy and playful girl who doesn’t even seem to notice that she’s missing a leg – she goes on with her life doing everything any other dog would do without any difficulties.
After the surgery, Meg spent some time in foster care to recover and that meant having to share a house with 3 cats and a large breed dog and she loved it! Meg definitely works to allow other cats and dogs be her friend but she will need to meet any dogs that she will be living with prior to adoption.
Meg is a very active girl and needs to be taken for walks to help use up all of her energy – ultimately, she would love to have a family who will include her in lots of activities. She understands basic commands such as “sit” and “stay” but will need ongoing training to help further improve her manners and build her trick repertoire!
Don’t worry, Meg also loves nothing more than cuddling up with people after a long day and is very affectionate and cuddly. Meg loves to play with kids of all ages but she can sometimes get a bit too excited and bouncy with happiness, so it’s important that you bring your children along prior to adoption to meet her. She would love to go home to a loving family with kind, playful kids who can keep up with her energy levels.
Meg requires a fully fenced yard with a minimum height of 6ft that does not have any gaps, holes or weak points where a dog might be able to squeeze through. She is suitable for an ‘orange profile‘ family.
Adopt cost includes: Desexing, microchip, vaccinations, flea and worm control, vet check, 30 day pet insurance and a grrrreat companion.
If you would like to know more about Meg, you can phone her previous foster carer Dani, who can be contacted on 02 9770 7555. When you call, please select option ’6′, followed by option ’1′ to be put through to her in the vet clinic
