A spry little guy with love to share

Coriolanus Snow (or Snowy for short) has recently joined the Vic Dog Rescue crew and he is fast becoming a team favourite. Happy and friendly, Snowy is cruising at his foster home, loving his two and four-legged pack members in equal measure, and demonstrating his smarts as he quickly conquered the dog door and a ramp onto the family couch. After a short time with them, Snowy has shown his carers how much he loves a snuggle and the company of his people and his fur siblings. He has also shown himself to be chatty (but not barky), entertaining people with his variety of sounds. Snowy has been sleeping well through the night on a couch in the living room, and has been pretty reliable with his toileting but will need some patience while he is learning the routines in his new home.

Snowy seems to be fit and well for his age;  we’ll know more after his vet check-up. He does not seem to have had much training to date but he is alert and keen on engaging with his people, which makes him a good candidate for learning new things (and having fun doing it). This guy is a youthful elder and enthusiastic about his daily exercise and explorations.

Given his sociable nature, we think Snowy will do best in a home where there is a bit going on and people and/or doggy pals around more often than not. Snowy is new into our care and we will update his profile as we get to know him better. In the meantime, if you’re interested in welcoming Snowy to your pack, please submit an adoption application.

All our dogs are desexed, C5 vaccinated with intranasal, microchipped, wormed and flea treated. All necessary vet work such as dentals, surgery, eye treatment is also carried out. We are no longer heartworm testing as we have not had one positive test since we began in 2006. If a dog comes to us on heartworm treatment this is continued.
