Charlie

21/06/2021

MEET CHARLIE An absolutely gorgeous 13 month old Kelpie x Whippet who just loves hanging out with people. He is full of energy and enjoys running, jumping, chewing and playing fetch. He also loves to snuggle up on the couch or bed for some cuddles whenever the opportunity is available. He is still learning some basic skills and manners that may have been missing from his early upbringing but as a very intelligent dog he is picking these up extremely quickly. With continued, consistent training he will be a very well-behaved, friendly companion. He already understands several basic commands and has a natural inclination to learn and always wants to please his people. He walks very well on a halti harness but could do with some more training to not pull when on a standard collar. He gets along with most dogs but can growl if he feels threatened. He can get a bit excited by cats but gives them a wide berth once he’s been put in his place! He is VERY athletic! His new home will need to have secure, high fences as he can easily scale a 5 foot fence if he feels so inclined. He also …

Lewie

12/06/2021

MEET LEWIE Hi all, I am Lewie. I am 5 years old male de-sexed, fully vaccinated dog who loves to be with people but also on my own. I get scared around other dogs as I haven’t got used to being with others yet. I am food motivated and will do almost anything for food. I love the lounge or even under the blankets in your bed. I like the heater on these cold winter nights. I will need a family of the older set with older kids or older adults, as I need some training. I know the word ‘No’, but like most males, I sometimes turn off and do my own thing at the moment I am with my sister and we set each other off. If I start barking the she does too and we build each other up. I get a little stressed around other dogs but I am getting better and with training i will be a great family member for a long time to come. So please, please love me as I know I will love you. So apply below and you may be able to take me home to be another member of …

Lilly

12/06/2021

MEET LILLY Hi Guys my name is Lilly I am 5 yrs old and a real softy. All I want is to be with you and to have you scratch me behind my ear or just to lay with you on the lounge or even sit on your lap to give me a hug. Yes I don’t mind staying outside when your busy. I will not eat your shoes. I love roast chicken (warm). I haven’t dug up the garden either i just want to be with you. Please don’t have a cat, pocket pets or another dog as I don’t think I really like them and I get scared of other dogs. I have had basic training but would benefit from more as I don’t know how to shake hands. I don’t really like the garden hose, but beware I love to snuggle up under the blankets in your bed but I will just sleep on the lounge or my bed. All in all I just love being fussed over and I will show it back to you. To be the best dog I can be, I would prefer no children under 14 years of age, good 6ft fencing …

Keegan

11/06/2021

MEET KEEGAN Little Keegan is looking for his forever home! He is 12 weeks old and the best breed of dog… a small Cooper Pedy Special! Keegan is an absolute firecracker and has a huge personality. He has two modes… on and off. On mode involves serious play time with his fur siblings, mixed with the cutest zoomies you’ve ever seen. Off mode involves the sweetest cuddles on the couch, naps on your chest or resting at your feet while you cook dinner. He will need ongoing training (as does any pup) as he is teething and can be a bit nippy when he’s trying to play. He’s made great progress with this though and will continue to do so with more training. He is toilet trained to go on puppy pads, but also goes outside to use the toilet too. He is a perfect gentleman inside the house as long as he is entertained. Keegan will be suited to a family with another playful dog to keep him company when his humans aren’t home and to run around like crazy with him. We believe Keegan would be fine as an only dog, but he would need his humans around …

She is a very excitable, playful & cheeky girl but loves a cuddle. Ami is a smart girl that is eager to learn and make you proud. Loves treats. She’d do very well in on going training to help her puppy ways. Ami is good with kids, patient dogs, okay with cats but thinks it’s great to chase them.

Craig

09/06/2021

MEET CRAIG He’s a unique boy.. mostly cattle dog with a little Shar Pei! His adorable little snores and large paws indicate he’ll be a medium to large sized dog – with a heart to match. He has a lot of energy and needs a home where he can get regular exercise and play a lot. Craig wants to be friends with everybody.. dogs, cats and people. He gets very excited by new friends or family he hasn’t seen in a few hours, so he’s probably best suited to a house with older kids who know how to handle a playful jumper (who tries to give many kisses). He’s grown up with cats that can stand their ground (he’s taken a few claws to the face and is starting to learn distance), but he can chase when it seems like a game. Craig would do well in a home with other dogs that can tolerate the occasional wrestle and tussle; and would thrive in a home where he can be the focus of attention. He is very cuddly and will snuggle right up to you (if you’ll let him on the couch). He’ll also happily sit in the garden and …

Kiki

Annie

24/05/2021

MEET ANNIE Annie is the most gorgeous female 6 month old Kelpie Cross. She is still a pup and definitely needs some more training with someone with the patience to teach her. She will grow to medium size as she’s still growing. She gets on well with other friendly dogs, in the home and at the park, she is currently homed with a Great Dane that she is getting used to. She would also be happy to be an only dog that laps up all those cuddles and attention though. Although she is currently housed with cats she does like to chase them if they run, but she loves people and older children that know how to behave around animals. Annie loves her humans, she can be a bit timid on first meet especially with men but once she’s settled in she just wants pats and to be with you all the time. She loves playing with her toys, (and needs toys to keep her occupied) and snuggled up on her blanket in what ever room you are.
