Personality:
Wobbegong is a gentle, sweet natured boy with a curious heart and a soft soul. While he can be a little shy and unsure in new environments, he finds comfort in kind words, reassurance, and plenty of affection. This relaxed little lad is just as happy snoozing in a sunny spot while his family goes about their day as he is enjoying quiet time by your side. With patience and encouragement, his confidence continues to grow as he discovers the world around him.
Tamariki – 10+ while he builds confidence.
Cats – No cats.
Kūri – Friendly. Needs ongoing socialisation.
Stock/poultry – No stock/poultry.
Size – Currently 5.9kgs. Likely to mature large in size.
Ideal home:
Wobbegong would fit well into most households, and a calm, well balanced older dog could be a wonderful role model for him. Ongoing training, positive socialisation, and fun enrichment will help him build confidence and embrace all that life has to offer. Watching this lovely boy come out of his shell and grow into a confident companion will be an incredibly rewarding journey.
Give Wobbegong a little patience and a lot of love, and he will give you his whole heart.
