SPCA Pet of the Day: Meet Dimple

Nicholas Boyack Reporter from Community News

Meet Dimple.

"Hi my name is Dimple and I have been in foster care while the canine team got to know me. I have come from a very difficult background, so I am looking for a very special home, without children, other dogs or small animals. I can be very wary of people and take time to bond with them, but once bonded I can be very smoochy. I can be very reactive while on a walk so will need a home that has experience with reactive dogs and will teach me through positive reinforcement that not everything is scary.
My foster mum has done a lot of work in socialising me with other dogs but I still have a long way to go. I am not keen on visiting dog parks or similar environments. I can be very affectionate, fun and quite the character once I'm comfortable in my space. I am toilet trained, and I do come with a medical waiver that my new home would be made aware of. If you are keen for a dog who you can put in the extra work with training then contact the canine team to learn more about me and set up a meeting if you seem like a good match!"

Hi Neighbourly folk, this week something a bit different from Louise Thomas, who as well as taking a good picture can tell a good yarn.

"Continuing with the Christmas theme, this seems like a face only a mother could love. Like somehow evolution decided to put the turkey's guts on the outside of his neck, and what even is that dangly appendix bit between his eyes? Wiki says the longer your snood the more likely you are to successfully mate. No wonder he looks grumpy with all that going on on his face (although that could also be the time of year - December and American accents are known to cause extreme stress to his species). Male turkey (Meleagris gallopavo) in full sail. Staglands."
