Meet Luna 🐾

A lovable friendly female 4-year-old de-sexed Staffy cross.

Luna is looking for a forever home with some fur-human friends.

She has a lovely nature, loves pats, swimming and to play fetch. She appears to be a low maintenance dog and is content with a walk a day and some interaction.

She is fairly obedient, sits and comes when called.

She is amazingly good at jumping high fences, which means Luna would need a well contained yard to be kept in.

Luna would rather be the only dog around, she has in the past been with another dog.

Please contact the Council Rangers on 6226 1477 to enquire about Luna.

Meet Delilah, Poppy and Goosie!

These fun filled seniors are patiently awaiting their forever families and they haven't had a single visitor yet 😔. They have plenty of love to give, loads of personality and they're content with life's simple pleasures.

They have come leaps and bounds since their arrival at the shelter 3 weeks ago.

As much as we would love to see them stay together, we understand that finding someone to take all 3 would be highly unlikely. We are confident the girls will adapt quickly to a new owner/family that has some time to spare to help them settle in.

If you think you can offer Delilah, Poppy or Goosie a loving home to spend their golden years, please contact Council Rangers on 6226 1477.

🐾Seeking Loving Homes for Three Golden Oldies 🐾

Meet Delilah (9) (pictured back, left), Poppy (11) (front), and Goosie (12) (back, right) -Three wonderful senior dogs in search of their forever homes.

These delightful girls are a unique mixture of mastiff cross and cattle dog, each bringing their own charm and personality.

The loving trio find themselves in need of new families due to a change in their owner's circumstances. Now, they're hoping to spend their golden years in a warm and caring home.

Delilah at 9-years-old looks great for her age and is the most energetic of the three. She is very shy initially but once she warms to you, she will be your shadow and playful companion.

Poppy, at 11-years-old, is a wise and gentle companion. She wants to be everyone’s friend and is happy with life at a slower pace. With some arthritis and extra kilos, she would thrive with a loving companion to share gentle walks and improve her fitness.

Goosie, the elder statesman at 12-years-old, has a lifetime of wisdom and unwavering devotion to share. Like Poppy, she’s perfectly content with a tranquil existence and loves pats and companionship.

If you have room in your heart and home for one or more of these beautiful girls, please consider adopting them. Senior dogs have a special kind of love to offer, and they deserve to spend their twilight years in comfort and happiness.

To inquire about adopting Delilah, Poppy, or Goosie, please contact Council Rangers on 6226 1477.

Let's give these golden oldies the loving homes they truly deserve to see out the days 🥰
