I am quiet and calm in my kennel, but once I get into a yard to see my friends it is all go!
I am also food motivated so training me is not too difficult!

Name:  Gypsy

Breed:  Mastiff X
Born: 22nd March 2016
Sex:  Female
Adoption Fee:  $300.00
BIN: 0000292198263

About:    Our dear Gypsy. All the staff have a real soft spot for her but she is seeking a very special person.
Our lovely girl has the abilities of a circus trapeze artist and will need a fully enclosed area to stay in while people aren’t home. Ideally she will need someone who is home a lot or able to take her with them. We think she would enjoy being a tradie dog! 
She will need a fair bit of training and can be a bit stubborn! But oh she is worth it all,
Gyspy loves to play and loves to snuggle up even more!
If you think you can give Gypsy what she needs please come down and have a chat with our lovely staff.
