Puppy cuddles anybody? Thank you so much Jane Bennet-Earle of www.janeearlephotography.com for volunteering your time to take these stunning photographs.
At just 17 weeks of age, Domino and Jenga are both on the lookout for a forever home where they can grow up and continue their training. They are affectionate and playful little guys who enjoy the company of other dogs and people. They are very good with the resident dogs in their foster home, which makes them ideal companions or playmates for your furry friends. They love to explore and sniff around and are always up for an adventure. Both Domino and Jenga would fit in well with a family that can give them lots of love, affection and attention. If you think that you can provide a loving home for either of them, then they would love to meet you!

𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗗𝗼𝗴 𝗗𝗮𝘆 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟰! 🐾
Today is a day to honour all dogs – no matter the shape, size, age or breed – and encourage adoption for all those who have yet to find a home and a forever family.

We are celebrating man’s best friend and remembering that every dog deserves the best life: a life of joy, love, protection, care and respect. A special day to raise awareness about dog adoption because if you are looking for a life companion, rescues are full of four-legged friends who are waiting for their chance and who will bring happiness to your days.

Please consider Panko, Domino and Jenga, none of which have received a single application yet, despite all being under 6 months old. 😢 More information and application details at:

🐾 Where would we be without Pet Circle? 🐶 Well, we know our dogs would be hungrier and we’d be having to do more fundraising to feed them, and neither our dogs nor our volunteers would be sleeping so well at night. 🙏 So, thank you, thank you, thank you. 🙏 We are always so grateful when 𝗣𝗲𝘁 𝗖𝗶𝗿𝗰𝗹𝗲 comes to our aid just when we need it the most. 🥰 Receiving quality food for our pooches in foster care is so appreciated. You are all amazing. Thank you so much from all the DBBR dogs and puppies. Thanks too to Polly who supervised the collection, and ensured it was delivered where needed! 😘

Two very sweet, socialised, healthy 13 week old pups recently arrived and are looking for their furever homes. Staffy x Border Collie brothers, 𝗗𝗼𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗼 and 𝗝𝗲𝗻𝗴𝗮, are enjoying their time getting snuggles and playing with the other doggies in foster care. They are cheeky and mischievous but full of love and joy, just waiting to bring happiness to your family. There is no love like the love of a rescue dog. 💙

UPDATE: Thank you all for your applications. Archie has now gone on trial. Preference was given to an active household with somebody home more often than not and with a similar dog who got on amazingly well with Archie. If, for any reason, the trial doesn't work out, we will be back in touch with those we shortlisted.

🐾 𝗔𝗿𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗼𝗽𝗲𝗻 𝘁𝗼 𝗮𝗱𝗼𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮 𝘀𝗲𝗻𝗶𝗼𝗿 𝗱𝗼𝗴? 🐾
Meet the irresistible little scruff, Archie. Weighing in at just under 10kg, this small West Highland White Terrier is charming. 🥰 He may be 9 years old, but he seems blissfully unaware of this fact. The way he trots about with proud purpose is so endearing. He is dog social but really loves his people and doesn’t want to be anywhere but by their side. He walks well but is not yet ready to retire from his adventures, so we recommend on leash walks only. When relaxation time arrives his favourite pastime is watching documentaries on TV, but he’s also partial to the occasional period drama too! He cannot be trusted to share a home with a cat.

💙 Do you have time to dedicate to this darling to make his life as complete as he will undoubtedly make yours? Archie is dying to meet you and make you the centre of his little world. In turn, this beautiful soul will provide a wealth of love, entertainment and the type of steadfast loyalty only a dog like Archie has the heart to provide. 💘

More info and pics at https://www.savour-life.com.au/adopt-a-dog/search-now/view/78706. To apply, please carefully follow the application instructions on his listing.

A HUGE thank you 🙏😘👏 to Lyka Pet Food for recently donating some top quality food for the dogs in our care to enjoy. Your support is very much appreciated. This was so well timed and very much needed as we had 2 litters of puppies, together with other adult dogs rescued from regional pounds. We want to extend our heartfelt gratitude to your team for thinking of us. Your kindness and generosity ensured that our dogs not only had full bellies but also got to enjoy some delightful treats. Lyka really is life-changing dog food!

Lyka is a great option for our foster dogs. Not only is it a locally and ethically sourced Aussie product, but Lyka is also packed with human-grade, nutritious, wholefood ingredients. 😋 We find it to be gentle on sensitive tummies and it’s great for puppies and seniors alike! We can also select recipes that cater for various allergies and ailments which is great as we never know what condition our new intakes might be in. Putting nutrition first makes our dogs happy from inside out, so they can live their best life. ❤️ Thank you. 🐾

🐶 Remember, our available dogs can be seen here.

🐕 𝗨𝗣𝗗𝗔𝗧𝗘! For our followers who have been wondering how Matilda, the Pilbara pup with the broken leg, is doing, this update is for you, but we also want to thank all of you who donated and made any of this possible.

📣 Firstly, the big news is that Matilda is now called Ruby and has been adopted by her foster family. 💟 They just couldn’t imagine giving her up and she is getting on great with Buddy, the resident dog who they also rescued from 𝘿𝙤𝙜𝙨 𝘽𝙚𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙙 𝘽𝙖𝙧𝙨 𝙍𝙚𝙨𝙘𝙪𝙚 3 years ago.

Now, news on the leg… 🦵 unfortunately, the initial setting of the bones was not as successful as we had hoped it would be, so Ruby had to return to 𝙍𝙞𝙫𝙚𝙧𝙜𝙪𝙢 𝙍𝙚𝙛𝙚𝙧𝙧𝙖𝙡 𝙎𝙚𝙧𝙫𝙞𝙘𝙚𝙨 for a more invasive surgery to have 6 pins inserted and a cage to support them. The good news is that their team are now very happy with Ruby's progress and have even given the OK for some cone free play time, which she was thrilled about, so we thought it a perfect chance to give you an update.

👨‍⚕️ There will be more for Ruby to endure when the pins are removed, but she has been the best patient and taken it all in her stride.

Thank you all for caring. ❤️ 🐾

❤️ 𝗧𝗛𝗔𝗡𝗞 𝗬𝗢𝗨! ❤️ Occasionally an angel comes along and answers some of our prayers. Helen was one of these angels. 😇 She arrived with food, treats, puppy pens, p*e pads, toys, beds, blankets, worming treatments, bowls, leads, collars, shampoo, and more!!! 🎁 All of this, and yet Helen wasn’t asking for anything in return, or even for any recognition, but we couldn’t let this go without a public thank you.
🙏 We can’t tell you how thankful we are as it arrived just when we were inundated with multiple puppy litters and scraping to find sufficient supplies. Please know that we truly appreciate your generosity and cannot thank you enough for how much this is saving us and helping us care for all our rescues. Helen, may you always stay blessed and happy in all that you do. 🐾💗

All jokes aside, we promise you he is the cutest thing. Poor Banjo is the last of his litter - we thought we had a great home lined up for him, but they changed their minds before he even got to meet them. 😢 Banjo desperately wants to meet his forever family, he just knows there is someone out there wanting a medium sized dog with lots of love to give.

His current foster carer says “Banjo is a quick learner, loves to please and follow his humans around the house. He sits and shakes paws at mealtimes - such a clever boy. He has mastered the use of the doggy door for his toilet breaks which, at 10 weeks old, is awesome; and he sleeps through the night with no accidents.

Banjo is a playful and inquisitive pup with so much love to give. He enjoys playing and wrestling with his foster sibling and mixes well with dogs and our in-house birds.
Banjo would fit well into a loving home with or without dogs.”

Poor Matilda!

Dear DBBR supporters, it’s been a long time since we asked for any financial help, but we need to now! Matilda, one of the 6 Pilbara puppies we had agreed to help, has exited her pen awkwardly and was obviously in pain. Thankfully, her foster carer was able to have her seen by the 𝗧𝗼𝗺 𝗣𝗿𝗶𝗰𝗲 𝗩𝗲𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗿𝘆 𝗖𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗶𝗰 within the day (a feat in itself as anybody who has ever tried to book an appointment with these remote vets would know!) who confirmed that her tibia and fibula were fractured and that she would need specialist attention in Perth. See X-ray in comments. Thankfully the team at 𝗦𝗔𝗙𝗘 𝗞𝗮𝗿𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗵𝗮 helped with organising a flight and she flew in from Paraburdoo yesterday. We took her directly to 𝗥𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗴𝘂𝗺 𝗥𝗲𝗳𝗲𝗿𝗿𝗮𝗹 𝗦𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗶𝗰𝗲𝘀 who had a surgeon and nurse return to the clinic especially for us after hours. After assessing her they decided not to wait but instead to work on her leg straight away. A broken leg on a pup this young is both good and bad. The good side is that their bones heal quickly, and she should not have any lasting issues from it. The bad side is, because of the rapidly growing bones, the normal procedures with pins, plates and casts can’t be used which means she must be carefully monitored and kept rested for a few weeks. We are thankful that Matilda’s prognosis is very good, but this emergency has been a costly exercise and used funds that we, frankly, just don’t have. We would love to raise $1,000 to go towards Matilda’s vetwork, flight and physio if deemed necessary once her leg heals. We would also like to say a heartfelt thank you to all the people who assisted with this emergency, and made Matilda a priority. We will update you all on her progress and with more puppy pics when her siblings join her in Perth next week. 𝘈𝘴 𝘢 𝘳𝘦𝘨𝘪
