AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION🏠🐾

Scooter is a little dog, only the size of a jack russel with a corgi like body and a sharpei shaped head. He is truely the most unique looking boy we have yet to discovered. We just look at him and fall in love with his quirky disposition.

Scooter’s middle name if affection and he gives it for free. He will cuddle for hours if he has the opportunity.

He loves a play and do zoomies when he is excited and is still figuring out how fetch works (the puppy inside wants to be chased) but he also can't catch anything… which is kind of hilarious😆

He is dog friendly but can get overly excited on walks. Scooter also gets on well with kids and all adults and has learnt so many tricks and commands while in care.

Please message us for an adoption application and to meet this unique boy.

Located in Craigieburn.

Alice is the sweetest girl. With a little squishy snout she’s sure to leave you wanting to offer her so many smooches!

She is not a very big girl but she sure does have a big heart 🩷

Alice is looking for a FOSTER carer but we are also open for a foster-to-adopt as Alice if also available for ADOPTION.

She is a lover for snuggles and belly scratches and although she does enjoy sharing her home with a male doggy compaction she would be content as an only dog too.

Alice is toilet trained, desexed, vaccinated and microchipped.

Located in Vermont South.

Jack

Jack Russel
Desexed vaccinated and microchipped

Jack here is looking for his forever family! His foster family have owned dogs for many years and found he is by far the smartest of any dog they’ve cared for. He is so quick to learn and can already sit, fetch and toilet on command. Jack is equal parts confident and sassy, loving and snuggly. He loves nothing more than cuddling right up into the crook of your neck and falling fast asleep as you walk around doing chores. Due to his affectionate nature he is not content with just sitting on your lap… he likes to instead bury his head right inside your jumper for a real snuggle whenever you’re sitting on the couch.

Like most puppies, he loves to chew so needs a variety of toys and chewable snacks to keep busy throughout the day otherwise he’s quick to go looking for somebody’s shoe.

Jack’s foster family have a King Charles Cavalier and being both males, Jack hasn’t taken too kindly to having to share the attention, beds or toys with another dog. It is important to also note he is not keen on the neighbour’s cat. He would therefore be best suited to being in a single pet home.

Jack is nosey and curious and for that reason is best suited to being an indoor dog where he can be a real member of the family. He does play independently throughout the day and will happily find a spot in the sun to chew on a stick and relax.

Jack’s puppy terrier teeth are very sharp and he’s quite ‘bitey’ particularly when playing with children, for that reason he would only be suited to families with children 10 years and older who can guide him to play more gently over time.

Jack is extremely confident. He knows how to ask for food when he’s hungry (even if that’s at 6.00am in the morning), ‘talks’ back when he’s being told off and generally unfazed by everything happening in the house.

He walks wonderfully well on a lead – doesn’t pull at all - and is very curious when encountering other people and other dogs. He’s very friendly to say hello and so excited when people stop to give him a pat.

Jack taught himself how to use the doggy door and goes outside himself to toilet when his foster family are home. When he’s left home by himself, or at night time, he’s less adventurous and will use inside puppy pads instead. He toilets on command so remembering to take him outside every few hours reduces any accidents to the very odd occasion only.

He’s currently spoilt rotten and sleeping with the foster family’s 12 year old son. He’s a sound sleeper and falls asleep snuggled as close as he can possibly be, wakes only to toilet once during each night, and is an early riser, currently waking at 5.30am and very soon after asking for his breakfast.

Jack became very car sick on the short trip to the vets recently but may get used to car rides with time.

Jack is energetic, full of love, curious, confident, silly, and snuggly. He is an absolute shadow with the people that he loves so would be suited to someone wanting a true life companion.

Skinny and in need of TLC- Betty needs a foster carer to show her love that she’s never known🥲

She has come from a high risk pound and narrowly escaped death. She is so lucky to have been given a life line but now we need to find her a foster carer to prepare her for adoption.

Betty is incredibly sweet, well adjusted and just a baby at roughly 6mths old. She is also dog friendly but is very content as an only dog if someone is around🧡

Currently located in Clifton springs VIC but transport can be arranged.

Message us directly if you are interested in offering this baby the start she deserves. Fostering literally saves lives!

Update: to everyone who has offered to help, we have found her a wonderful foster carer and are grateful for all the messages. There are so many others in need of a foster home, they may not be a purebred like Harriet but certainly deserve the same love. Please consider fostering other kill listed dogs through us by sending us a message offering to help.

Harriet ❤️‍🩹🥺 Are you able to foster?

At only 9 months old Harriet needs some tender loving care and repair. She is an Australia cobberdog and has been surrendered. We have had a last minute warning of her arrival tomorrow morning and need to find her a carer who can collect her off transport tomorrow at 10am in Lilydale.

Harriet is a typical pup and is very excitable around others but she is crate trained and truely a joy we have been told. If you can offer her a foster home and take her to her vet appointments in Lower plenty, we would love to hear from you!

FOSTER CARER NEEDED!

This little terrified boy has been waiting at the pound for weeks and no one has come forward 😞 his tear tells a story of one that was not kind.

We have agreed to take him on but we need a foster carer for him to go too. Somewhere quiet where he has the opportunity to unwind all of his trauma and trust humans again.

The pound workers have said he has already improved so much so really all he needs is time🧡

He will be arriving to Lilydale on Saturday 20th and needs loving hands to fall into. Please message us if that could be you

💔🆘🚨‼️SCOOTER NEEDS YOUR HELP‼️🚨🆘💔
Please donate to get him into rescue and to have the surgery he needs!

It is cold, it is wet and it is winter and being in a rural outback pound is not the place to be for any dog and definitely not for Scooter.

This short stocky boy is facing euthanasia AND has a medical condition known as cherry eye. He needs saving and he needs surgical correction of his eye.

We definitely cannot achieve his rescue without the help of the communicate. This is where you can help🫵🏼

By donating we can bring him into Victoria and have him seen by our vets where he can undergo the repair of his cherry eye (eyelid prolapse), be desexed, vaccinated, microchipped and eventually adopted into a home he deserves.

Truth is we cannot take him without raising the funds to do so😢

Gorgeous boy Pullman was very brave today for his CT at the specialist centre. He is back home now and resting after his anaesthetic.

Big thanks to everyone who has contributed towards his fundraiser. The visit today totalled $1,418.88 and every dollar towards that helps hugely🧡

Poor Pullman has been diagnosed with elbow dysplasia in both of his front legs. What this means, we are not yet sure but next week we will have a meeting with the surgical team to discuss the most appropriate options available to him.

Until then, THANKYOU and any further contributions would be amazing xx

Pullman is waiting patiently at the specialist centre for his CT scan today. We are nervous about the results but know it is completely necessary to find out what is causing the pain Pullman is experiencing🙏🏼

We are still a fair bit away from our fundraiser goal and would really like to reach it before this afternoon. Emergency and specialist appointments like this really set us back and hinder our ability to help the next lot of dogs that need us.

Every little bit adds up and brings us closer to covering his procedure today 💰

HELP US AFFORD PULLMAN’S CT SCAN🩺🧡

Pullman is a special and smiley pup who was rescued from a rural pound as he was unwanted, homeless and facing euthanasia.

Following his arrival into care we noticed he had an option limp. He received veterinary treatment, imaging and pain medication but the issue remains unknown. We were referred to a specialist centre and they suspect he may have shoulder and/or hip dysplasia and the only way to confirm this diagnosis and get him the treatment he needs would be to perform a CT scan.

Ok Friday he will have this imaging procedure performed which will come at an estimated cost of $1533.83 which needs to be paid on the day of the procedure.

It is important and cannot wait. Any and all contributions will help Pullman and our rescue.

9 lives saved over the weekend! Each narrowly avoiding their death sentence because of the kindness of the community opening their home up to these dogs in need.

Truely, we are in awe of our foster carers who have given an opportunity to these deserving individuals💘
We can always rely on you and that is just incredible!

In saying this, donations are still desperately needed to keep us afloat and make up able to help the next lot that need us. Although we hate to sound like a broken record it is unfortunately a huge aspect of bringing these animals into care and does make or break our capacity to help.

Urgent call out! Please read as we are very worried for Bentley.

Yesterday we posted this photo of Bentley, who was seeking urgent foster placement. We had an offer that stood out and the foster applications seems like he would fit in well. Having two other dogs to play with and property to explore… we were happy and Bentley was transferred last night.

After checking in with them later last night the foster carer was smitten with Bentley. Another check in this morning and other than some toileting mistakes, they were comfortable with caring for Bentley. That was until we received this message-
“I can't keep this dog. You need to take him today otherwise I'll take him to the pound”

We are absolutely shocked! Poor Bentley was rescued from being on a pound kill list and never deserves to end up there again. Especially after being somewhere who he should be safe. Now we are very urgently seeking an alternative arranging for Bentley. We understand he has a lot of energy and is going to take time to settle after all these movements but he deserves better 😢

Currently located Warburton VIC

All sorted now thankyou wonderful people!!!

Super super urgent!! 🆘

Bentley’s foster carer has faced an emergency and Bentley needs to be moved TODAY! It’s really last minute and he has no where to go.

He is a beautiful boy, loves other dogs and with has lots of energy!

At the very least we need a temporary carer just to give us more time to arrange a foster carer going forward.

PLEASE if you are able to help us place Bentley somewhere from today, reach out🙏🏼 He is currently located in The Basin VIC.
