Readvertised: I’m still looking for a loving home.
Kyra is a 2 year old desexed, vaccinated, wormed and microchipped 28kg female Labrador x Beagle who’s looking for a loving home.
She’s a very affectionate, cheeky and active girl who loves being a part of the family all snuggled up indoors, as well as going out on her daily walks. She’d love an experienced, all-adult home or one with dog-savvy teenagers.
Kyra’s quite a dominant girl so may suit a home with a friendly, medium to large sized, desexed male dog for company. Otherwise a home as the sole pet of the family would suit.
Kyra enjoys an indoor/ outdoor lifestyle, sleeping indoors. A home with a dog door would be great as she’s used to using them. Otherwise, someone home during the day would be ideal.
Kyra’s adoption fee is $550

Lino is a 2 year old desexed, vaccinated, wormed and microchipped 23kg male Red Heeler Cattle Dog, who’s looking for a loving home.
He’s a very affectionate, loyal and active boy who’d love to be a treasured member of the family, receiving lots of love and affection, plus his daily walks. He’d suit an experienced, calm but active family in an all-adult home or one with dog-savvy teenagers.
Lino’s on anti-anxiety medication and needs further socialisation as, despite starting off life as a well socialised boy, he was bitten by another dog and is now reactive towards dogs he doesn’t know, especially those that rush at him. He’s also cautious around strangers who may approach him outside of the home, although he’s fine with visitors to the home.
He may be fine with a compatible desexed dog who has been properly introduced to Lino. Otherwise a pet-free home with someone who’s around during the day (ie: working from home or newly retired but active) would be great as he loves company. Lino chases cats.
He enjoys an indoor/ outdoor lifestyle, sleeping indoors. He’s also crate trained.
Lino’s adoption fee is $450

Gr**go is an 11 year old desexed, vaccinated, wormed and microchipped 3.5kg male Chihuahua, who’s looking for a loving home.
He’s an affectionate little man who would thrive in a calm, loving home. An experienced all-adult home or one with gentle, dog savvy older teenagers would suit.
Gr**go has lived with another dog his entire life, so a home with another dog for company would be ideal. He can be a bit snappy with unknown dogs that rush at him, but is fine once he trusts them. He's not been tested with cats.
He loves his daily walks and enjoys an indoor/ outdoor lifestyle, sleeping indoors. A dog door would be ideal, so he can get in and out as he pleases and can stay out of the sun when it’s too much, given his pale colouring.
Gr**go’s adoption fee is $500

Charlie is a 7 old desexed, vaccinated, wormed and microchipped 9kg male Maltese x Jack Russell Terrier, who’s looking for a loving home.
He’s such a little character- very smoochy and loving. He even talks. Charlie’s also a bit of an action man who loves his daily walks, runs and even going for a swim. After that he usually enjoys a sleep. He’d suit a devoted, experienced and active family, in an all-adult home or one with dog-savvy teenagers.
Despite having lived with a Labrador, Charlie would suit a calm, confident and experienced owner who can teach him to relax around other dogs. A home with another submissive dog should be fine (there’s always a meet and greet, plus a trial period with all of our dogs). Otherwise someone home during the day, either working from home or retired but active, would also suit. He’s not good with cats.
Charlie has had his teeth cleaned, enjoys being groomed and is also fine on road trips.
He enjoys an indoor/ outdoor lifestyle, sleeping indoors. A home with a dog door would be great.
Charlie’s adoption fee is $600

Simba is a 10 month old desexed, vaccinated, wormed and microchipped 23kg male Tricolour Beagle x Harrier, who’s looking for a loving home. Please note, he’s bigger than your average beagle due to his Harrier side.
He’s a very affectionate, cheeky, playful, cuddly and active boy who’d suit an active and experienced family, in an all-adult home or one with older, dog-savvy children. He’d love to be a cherished member of the family and included in their daily lives.
Simba looks forward to his daily walks, as well as time at the local dog park. Given his breed(s) and their habit of following their nose, his recall isn’t great… unless there’s treats involved. Then his recall suddenly improves 😊
He loves other dogs and would definitely enjoy a home with another friendly and active, medium to large sized dog for company. He’s not been tested with cats.
Simba’s been to puppy school and is well trained. He enjoys an indoor/ outdoor lifestyle, sleeping indoors.
Simba’s adoption fee is $650

# Update: Leo has a great new home!
Leo is a 5 year old desexed, vaccinated, wormed and microchipped tiny 2.5kg male Russian Toy Terrier (Longcoat), who’s looking for a loving home.
He’s a very loving, friendly, cheeky and playful little boy who’s also more than happy to have a nap on your lap. (Russian Toy Terriers were bred to be lap dogs for the aristocracy). He also enjoys his daily walks, albeit relatively short ones given his little legs.
As his breed is one of the smallest in the world, Leo needs a calm and loving all-adult home or one with gentle, dog-savvy teenagers. He’s lived with another dog and would enjoy a home with another similarly friendly, small, gentle but perky dog for company. He’s also lived with a cat.
Little Leo’s protective of the home, so will let you know when a stranger approaches. He enjoys an indoor/ outdoor lifestyle, sleeping indoors. He knows how to use a dog door too, so is used to having indoor/outdoor access during the day as well. A suitable dog door or someone who’s home during the day would be ideal. Having secure fencing, with no escape routes for a tiny dog or large gaps under pool fencing, would also be essential.
Leo’s adoption fee is $1500

Abi is a 10 year old desexed, vaccinated, wormed and microchipped 24kg female Chocolate Labrador, who’s looking for a loving home.
She’s a great girl with a sweet, loving and gentle temperament. She would love an all-adult home or one with gentle, dog savvy, older children.
Abi loves other dogs and would greatly enjoy a home with another gentle dog for company. Otherwise a home with someone home during the day would be great, either working from home or retired but still active (she loves her daily walks and time at the off-leash park). Abi’s also fine with cats.
Health-wise she’s doing really well, with just a benign fatty lump near her ribs which has been checked by the vet. It doesn’t affect her in any way.
She enjoys an indoor/ outdoor lifestyle, sleeping indoors and requires regular brushing.

She’s a playful, active, friendly, loving and loyal girl who would thrive as a treasured member of an active family, in an all-adult home or one with older, dog-savvy teenagers. She loves her daily walks and would love someone who’s also working from home, as she loves company. It’s not a deal breaker, just a bonus.
Athena’s well trained and loves to please. A home with another playful dog for company would be ideal, as Athena loves other dogs. She’s also lived with cats.
She enjoys an indoor/ outdoor lifestyle, sleeping indoors.

Smokey is a 13 month old desexed, vaccinated, wormed and microchipped 18kg male Staffy x Koolie, who’s looking for a loving home.
He’s a very affectionate and playful pup who’s full of energy and would suit an active family, happy to exercise him daily. Despite his energy levels, he’s lived with an elderly pug and a cat, but we know he’d better suit a family with another active dog for company.
Smokey would love to be a cherished member of the family, in an all-adult home or one with dog-savvy, older children. Someone who’s home during the day would be great too, though it’s not a deal breaker, just as long as there’s another dog for him to play with.
He enjoys an indoor/ outdoor lifestyle, sleeping indoors.

Doja has lived with a cat and is fine with other dogs, although she could do with some more socialisation. All she wants to do is play, but she can be a bit overwhelming to some dogs. A home with another friendly, active, medium to large dog for company, would do her a world of good.
She enjoys an indoor/ outdoor lifestyle, sleeping indoors.

# Update: incredibly, I’m still looking for a loving home!
Vinnie is a 2 year old desexed, vaccinated, wormed and microchipped 35kg male Blue American Staffy, who’s looking for a loving home.
He’s a very affectionate, cuddly and sweet natured boy who’d love to be a treasured member of the family. He’s great with people but due to bullying from the family’s other staffy, he’s now wary of other dogs (unless properly introduced). He’s lived with a Maltese and cat though with no issues.
Vinnie would suit an all-adult home or one with dog savvy teenagers. He’s an active boy who would suit an active family, happy to walk him daily. He’s also got great recall (he responds to a whistle.) A grassed garden for him to run around in, would also be great.
He enjoys an indoor/ outdoor lifestyle, sleeping indoors.
Vinnie’s adoption fee is $400

Mielie loves her daily walks or runs at the park or beach, as well as playing fetch. She’s not good with cats but would suit a home with another perky, active dog to play with.
She enjoys an indoor/ outdoor lifestyle, sleeping indoors. A home with a dog door would be lovely, so she can come and go as she pleases.

Happy Adoption Tale!
Cibby the Jack Russell Terrier has found a great new home with Angela, Lawrence and Remi, their Jack Russell Terrier. We received this from Angela.
‘Cibby is an absolute delight. As soon as we saw her profile on Facebook, we knew she was the perfect playmate/sister for our little Remi.
Remi (who’s 3 months older) and Cibby get on like a house on fire. It only took Cibby about an hour to get the gist of the doggie door. Now they are in and out like little whirlwinds, all day long. They are so good at sharing their toys and snuggle up together at night after a busy day playing. We are thrilled to welcome Cibby into our family. 🐶😍’
Thanks Angela. It’s lovely seeing Remi and Cibby so strongly bonded after such a short time! We couldn’t have found her a better home 😊
