Personality:
Cortex is an absolute stunner and a true four legged supermodel who is sure to turn heads wherever she goes. Behind those gorgeous looks is a very sweet, laid back and wonderfully smoochie pooch who is currently enjoying all the big cuddles she can get. Toys? Not really her thing. Human affection? Absolutely. Give this girl a cuddle and she is one very happy lady. We are still getting to know Cortex and, while she is showing us her calm and chilled side so far, we know her breed well and suspect there is a little more energy and excitement waiting to pop out as she settles in and her personality starts to shine.
Tamariki – 5+ while we get to know her better.
Cats – No cats.
Kūri – Friendly and social girl.
Stock/poultry – Untested.
Size – Currently 22.3kgs and is fully grown.
Ideal home:
Cortex would love a home with previous dog experience and, ideally, some knowledge and understanding of her breed. Her new whānau should be committed to ongoing training and positive socialisation, helping her build confidence, learn good manners and experience the world at her own pace. She will need a family who understands that there may be more to this beautiful girl than meets the eye and is ready to give her the structure, guidance, enrichment and plenty of aroha she needs to flourish.
Gorgeous looks, a giant cuddle quota and a personality still waiting to unfold… could Cortex be your next heart dog?
