DSH - male
This little cutie is all white except for a little grey stripe on the top of the boys head. Mickey is super affectionate, easy to handle and a delightful, confident young man. He's very inquisitive and playful and will do fine in a busy household with kids and dogs. Mickey needs to be inside mostly due to his colouring however he does like to duck outside for a quick nibble of grass, so he'd be best suited to a house rather than a unit/apartment.
Mickey was adopted on 19 November 2009 after 11 months in foster care
Tri coloured Collie Rough - male
Tamm came into care underweight and with a history of not being a good eater at all, certainly did not chew bones. A few days in care and Tamm 's face on one side blow up like a balloon and thinking maybe a bee sting he went straight to the vets where it was revealed that he had a terribly infected tooth and several major ulcers on the inside of his mouth. This long term infection started where the thumb is on the picture and had travelled all the way under the skin and was coming out where the 3 sores are near his nose. Tamm had to have emergency surgery to remove the pockets of ulcerated infection and also his back tooth. He is recovering well, definately got an appetite now and is making up for lost time in that regard, eats anything now, a massive bowl full very night including chicken necks.
If you can help sponsor some of Tamms additional vet costs please call Megan on 9627 2767 or email dchanimaladoptions@iprimus.com.au or click below Thanks to Paul and Julia for their generous donations towards Tamms vet fees. These have now been fully covered.

Rotti x Staffy - male
Simba has a lovely nature and at times can be quite shy. He loves being around people and loves cuddles and he understands when its time for a quite moment either reading or watching tv. He gets along very well with other dogs and enjoys playing with toys and riding in the car. He is not too great on a leash, but he is getting better by the day and with regular exercise will be a good dog to walk. He is very responsive to obedience and within 2 days had learnt how to sit when asked, even without a treat in hand. Simba would do great in a home with or without other pets.

Needs owner/s who are willing to let her be an inside dog (she is well behaved indoors) and let her be part of the family. Molly is smart and learnt the rules very quickly.

Maltese - female
Daisy is a very sweet lovable girl. She's relatively tiny only weighing approx 3-3.5 kilos, making her very easy to pick up and cuddle. She can be a little shy to start with, but before long she's following you around, trying to see what your doing, or rolling over for tummy rubs. She's fine with other small dogs but we don't think she is dependant on another canine for her happiness, so a home with another small dog or without is fine. She loves humans and can get quite excited when you get home dancing round in circles. She's not a fussy eater and is a very placid sweet girl.
Daisy was adopted on 12 November 2009 after 1 month in foster care
Labrador - male
Teddie is a beautiful, placid and gentle boy. Having been neglected for the past year, he has piled on the weight and his coat was very dry and dull. Since he came into care, he is slowly losing the weight and his coat is glorious and shining. With a vast improvement in the quality of his food, and soft bedding, lots of TLC and trips to the dog park, Teddie has really come out of his shell. He is very friendly, loves adults and kids and follows his foster carer around continually. He shows complete disinterest in anything feline. He walks very well on lead, is perfectly housetrained and typically Labrador, loves his water. After a long walk he will come home and usually place his paws one at a time in his water bowl. He is non-destructive, having not ripped anything apart, he usually has a toy or a ball in his mouth when he greets you at the door. The only concern I have for him is that he is quite anxious when he is first left alone, regardless of how many canine companions he has with him, how many toys are left with him or how long a walk he goes on in the morning, but this is becoming under control, the new owner will need some patience in this area. This boy will only go to a home who can truly appreciate this most precious young fella.

Fawn Pug - male
Do you love curly tails that wag non stop and squashed faces that sneeze lovingly onto you? Do you appreciate snorting, snuffling and lots of kisses? Have you had experience with short snouted breeds that require special attention? Are you up for the challenge of toilet training a stubborn pug? Then Milo may be the little man for you! He is a loving, bossy little man that gets on well with other dogs when he remembers his manners and who absolutely LOVES people. He will happily follow you around the house asking for pats and then sneakily run off to pee on your cupboards. If you are willing to spend time teaching Milo how to live indoors, be toilet trained and have him as part of your family, please contact us to have a chat! Milo is a healthy, fawn coloured little man. Previous pug owners please apply!
Milo was adopted on 12 November 2009 after 2 months in foster care
Stumpy Tail Cattle Dog (x?) - female
Zara is typical of the breed - being alert and active, she needs regular exercise and stimulation. Luckily, she LOVES a game of FETCH so wearing her out is easy. Zara is quite rank driven so she is good with other dogs as long as the hierarchy is clear. For this reason we would also recommend an experienced owner who can display clear leadership. Zara has had basic obedience training (SIT, COME, HEEL, STAY) and is keen to please. She is fine with older children (say 10+) but a little too excitable for the littlies. Zara has good manners with food.
