Kestra

is a lively little girl who is always keen for a game She tries very hard to keep up with her brother and just loves to explore.

Naomi

has a shyer soft nature which makes her the perfect pup for cuddles. Loves to sit in your lap and have a snooze or give you kisses.

Minty is a such a sweet tiny little Dainty girl. She's very happy, affectionate and quite the character she loves to tuck her nose under her paw and is allways happily trotting nearby or cuddled up to her older foster brother. Minty loves to be on your lap and is very social towards other dogs. She is gentle and great with children. We believe she will remain a small dog and not get a great deal bigger as she has very fine bone structure.

Nilla is a beautiful, soft natured, girl who is very affecionate, friendly and is very people orientated. She loves nothing more than to be with her human family getting all the attention. Nilla is very playful and she would love some children to play with at her new home or even another doggie friend to play with. She is learning how to fetch a ball (well she chases it anyway doesnt bring is back as yet). Nilla lives with 9 other dogs 5 of whom are chihuahuas she is great with them and you can often find them curled up asleep together in the kennel, she is very well socialised with big and small dogs. She also lives with 3 cats who are very dog friendly and rub up against her all the time and she is also good with them but she could only go to a cat friendly home if her new feline friends aren't scared of dogs and dont run away from her if they do she will chase them. Nilla requires little excerise she gets a 10 minute walk a day and thats enough for her and she would require even less if she had some children to play with her and keep her busy. She sleeps most of the day doesn't fret or bark if left by herself during the day so she would make a great only dog too. Nilla walks great on the lead and never pulls. If Nilla sounds like your new family member please give us a call she would love to meet you.

Livi is a really wonderful companion. She loves to follow you around the house and hates someone going into a room and shutting the door behind them and leaving her out. She has a beautiful grey coat that is very hard to photograph as the silver in it is picked up when the camera flashes. Livi is a very regal cat who loves to sit beside you on the lounge and she will cross her front paws which is really cute. Livi would make a wonderful addition to a family that is after a mature cat as she is about 10 years old. She doesn't seem to have any bad vices at all that I have observed.

Livi came to us at 10 years old after her owner passed away. She required extensive dental work before she was ready for rehoming including extraction of several teeth. This additional vet work has come to $320.40 and we are seeking sponsorship to help us cover some of these additional expenses.

If you can help sponsor some of the additional vet costs please call Megan on 9627 2767 or email dchanimaladoptions@iprimus.com.au. Thank you to Melissa, Maureen, Kristen and Jan for their donations towards Olivia. Her vet bills have now been fully covered.

Jack is a very smoochy boy who head buts you for a rub around the neck. He took a couple of weeks to settle in when he came here, but once he was comfortable with his new surroundings, he has showed us just what a lovely personality he has. Jack is good with other cats and kittens and is extremely good with large dogs. He is very attached to his friend Reubin the Irish Setter who has come into foster care with him. He loves to sit beside you on the lounge and also likes to sit on the back of the lounge just above your head. He is quite a passive boy who will wait his turn for food, rather than push his way into the food bowl and upset another cat. Jack is only 1 year old and would make a wonderful companion for someone who would give him the chance to settle in.

Porter is a very handsome smart boy who know how to fetch and catch a ball, loves playing with water from the hose and walks very well on a lead. He is very friendly when meeting new dogs and loves his pats and hugs. sadly he was bitten on the tail by another dog at the pound and as a result half his tail has been amputated. Porter would make a fantastic family dog as he is very gentle with children and only wants to be loved.

Unfortunately during his stay at the pound Porter was bitten on the tail by another dog. As a result he lost the tip of his tail however further investigation by the vets have determined that his tail has been broken further down and there is nerve damage and exposed bone. Sadly this means half of Porter's tail will need to be amputated. Luckily he should make a full recovery and this won't cause him any ongoing problems.

If you can help sponsor some of the additional vet costs for Porter's surgery, which have come to $350, please call Judy on 9674 4824 or email dchanimaladoptions@iprimus.com.au or click below. Thank you to Lesley, Denise and Celia for your generous donations towards Porters surgery. His vet fees have now been fully covered.

Barney was abandoned as a young dog left to wander the streets all alone. The resident store owner felt sorry for him so would leave food out for him. However Barney belonged to no-one. Barney had to find different places to sleep at night to stay dry and warm.

Anne a DCH Animal Adoption foster career noticed that Barney always seemed to hang around this store and when she equired with the owner of the store he informed her that Barney had been abandoned some years ago and had continued to hang around the local Streets. Barney then came into DCH Animal Adoptions care. For the first few days Barney was very sad and depressed as he was unsure of what was going on and he did not understand English very well. However after a few days he began to trust and he started to relax settling in and making himself at home. Now after being in care for about a month Barney has completely changed and is a very happy confident dog who loves human company but equally enjoys playing and hanging out with his new found canine friends. He is very gentle with children and when anyone gives him attention he laps it up. Barney doesnt really like his feline friends as he feels that they are put on earth to chase (not harm) but chase.

Generally Barney is now a well adjusted happy dog who has learnt after all this time to be a dog and hang out in a back yard where he gets plenty of Love, food, shelter and companionship without having to try to hard.

Barney was a street dog for many years. Without a warm home to call his own or someone to take him to the vet when he was ill, he was in a fairly poor state when he came into care. We took him straight to the vets and he was diagnosed with severe arthritis in his left stifle and thoracic spinal pain. Barney was put on medication (rimadyl) anti inflammatory to see how he would respond.

Within a week of being on medication he started improving and acting like a two year old dog running and wrestling with his canine friends. At this stage he was then taken back to the vets for xrays, dessexing and a hernia repair. Barney is doing so well that we have reduced his medication dose and have since been able to take him completely off the medication and he has not looked back. He will probably need medication in the future but is currently comfortable without it.

Barney's medications and vet bills have come to $488 and we are seeking sponsorship to help us cover these additional costs.

If you can help please call Megan on 9627 2767 or email dchanimaladoptions@iprimus.com.au or click below Thank you to Kathy, Kimberley and Riikka for your generous support. Barney's vet fees have now been fully sponsored.

Rossi is a very handsome boy with stunning blue eyes. He is a sweet laid back affectionate quiet boy. He loves a cuddle and is slowly settling in to a new environment. He is still getting used to dogs and other cats so at this stage would love to be an only cat. He is toilet trained for an indoor only home. Rossi would only need a quick brush once a week to keep his fur looking nice.

Buffy is a very sweet natured little girl. She is very loving and cuddly and always purring. She gets along fine with other cats and dogs and is good with Children. She is kitty litter trained for an indoor only home. She was sadly surrendered to the pound as her owners did not have time for a cat. She was a little shaken up and confused about the whole ordeal but is now happy again getting love and attention and putting on some needed weight.
