Quick Facts
• Tan, short-haired male Dachshund who is approximately 4 years old and weighs 9kg
About Bunji
Bunji is a sweet-natured dachshund with plenty of personality, spunk and love. He has just the right amount of cheeky side-eye and a whole lot of charm. He loves being close to his humans, playing with his doggy friends, and curling up for cuddles at the end of the day. With his affectionate nature and playful spirit, Bunji is a little dog with a very big heart.
Personality Highlights
Bunji is a clever boy who is currently learning to sit and wait for his dinner, and he is picking it up quickly. He enjoys playing with his fur friends, chasing tennis balls, chewing toys, relaxing on the couch, and sleeping in bed with his humans. He has a fun, energetic personality and loves being part of the family.
Current Training Progress
• House Training: Partially house trained and using the yard during the day, but still needs to be taken outside regularly and reminded to toilet. He will need continued support with nighttime routines.
• Lead Skills: Enjoys walks and car rides, but is still working on reducing pulling when he becomes excited.
• Social Skills: Bunji needs slow, calm introductions to new people and dogs. He does best when the environment is not too busy or overstimulating. His recall is still a work in progress, although he does eventually come when called. Bunji is not suited to a home with cats or other small animals.
Daily Care
• Diet: Thrives on Black Hawk food
• Exercise: Enjoys active playtime, walks, and regular outdoor time
• Sleep: Settles well through the night when sleeping with his family
• Behaviour: Bunji can sometimes be protective around food or toys, so his new family will need to continue working on calm routines, including sit-and-wait training around meals. He plays well with other dogs but can become overwhelmed when too many dogs are trying to play at once.
Bunji would flourish in a home that offers:
• Patient owners committed to continuing his training and socialisation
• A calm, structured environment
• Canine companionship, as he enjoys the company of both small and larger dogs
• A home without cats or small animals
• A secure yard for exercise and bathroom breaks
• Understanding that he needs time and calm introductions when meeting new people or dogs
• Continued guidance around food, toys, and household routines
Health Status
• Desexed
• Microchipped
• Fully vaccinated
• Flea and tick treated
• Wormed
• Veterinary checked
