How much is that doggy in the window? Only $150 if you can offer it a good home.
UQ's School of Veterinary Science recently completed an ear flushing trial on five rescued dogs, and is now keen to find new homes for its canine study partners.
Dogs up for adoption include Delilah, a purebred German shorthaired pointer; Buffy, a female staffy; Rusty, a male German shepherd cross; Basil, a male kelpie cross; and Cookie, a female cattle dog cross.
Animal welfare technician, Nicole Richards, said the dogs had been great to work with and deserved a comfortable place to live.
“The dogs were rescued from the pound and have been staying at UQ for the five-month study duration,” Ms Richards said.
“Throughout their stay they have received daily exercise, socialisation, enrichment and training by an animal welfare technician.
“Our dogs are all beautiful, healthy with very bright personalities; they need to go to loving homes with new owners who are going to give them as much love as they will give you.”
The dogs, which are all aged between one and two years, de-sexed, vaccinated, wormed and micro chipped, and have received basic training, are available for an adoption fee of $150.
Anyone interested in offering one of the dogs a new home should contact the vet clinic on 3365 2110.
