The rescue was really busy but everyone was looking at the puppies, no-one in the older dog section so I'm hoping no-one else will apply for him.
We fell in love with a 2-3 year old lab cross. He's only been there a week so still needs to be neutered and temp tested. I went and said hello to him first then took the dc in one at a time. Dog (he doesn't have a name yet) was lovely, very friendly, a bit boisterous, clearly very food orientated going by how many treats were coming out of the handlers pocket, he was great with the kids from the little interaction we had with him. He seemed to take a liking to 4 1/2 ds2, sitting next to him (practically on his feet), kept looking up at him and nuzzling into his hand.
I'm pretty sure we can give him a lovely home. We have a fully fenced secure garden, I'm a SAHM, the boys are 6 & 4 and home schooled and we spend a lot of time on the beach or in parks/reserves, on bush walks. We don't really go anywhere often that a dog couldn't come with.
I've been watching kikopup videos on YouTube and looking at crate training.
Is there anything else you could advise? I'm very much hoping we'll be accepted for him so I want to be prepared but even if we turned down we'll keep looking for the right dog so want to be prepared anyway.
Keepin my fingers crossed now.
