Pets For Adoption & Doggies In Rehab
Hi there!
Meet our doggies here, and hopefully find your new bestie.
Everyone is desexed, chipped, vaccinated, heartworm + intestinal worm + flea treated. And every dog leaves with a little starter pack of a lead, collar, tags, harness, current diet & goodies.
We've also done all the extras (like dentals and blood panels for example). And everyone eats premium diets in care. Adoption fees are reduced for senior dogs despite their higher vetwork costs and longer time in rehab.
And please note: We don't freight dogs to new homes. SSR used to have a 'NSW only' policy but now allows interstate adoption if the successful applicant is willing to travel for a meet & greet. With this compromise we have had doggies go to Qld, Vic, SA, WA and ACT.
We have a lifetime backup policy and your adopted dog may be returned to us at any stage. Sometimes life throws you a curveball and we're always here to help. You may also call your carer 24/7 for any emergencies or questions.
Please allow time for a response to your application.
The Adoption Team is staffed by volunteers who work in their valuable free time between life's commitments.

Dixie Cup | Mixed Breed | 9 months | Available For Adoption
Located on the Mid North Coast. Baby Dixie is microchipped, fully vaccinated (all 3 shots), wormed, heartworm & flea prevention, desexed, hernia repaired, basic training, socialisation and a lifetime support safety net. + free consult with our vet. Adoption fee $550 ~ Rehoming Body Number R251000076
Our unknown breed little girl is just a happy pup. She is 9 months old and around 25kg so almost fully grown.
Dixie is as smart as she is stubborn and in true puppy style she will get away with what you let her. If not, she does sad face very well and you have to try not to laugh while she makes you feel like relenting.
We are looking for Dixie's forever humans that will want her for her entire life, not just the puppy phase. Owners that will give her, her crucial socialisation period now so she has the best chance at being a happy social girl when she matures.
We would ask any successful applicants to sign up to puppy classes prior to getting Dixie so we know the commitment is there and the research has been done.
Dixie needs a good sized backyard to play and burn off some energy. Dixie would be suited to a home that will be patient as she goes through the puppy stage and growing phases. If she eats your favourite shoes or something else she isn't supposed to we want her future owners to love her while redirecting her to non out of bounds chew toys.
Another dog is a must, preferrably a male dog of the same size who is happy and patient and can help show Dixie how to play and grow and have a best doggy friend. Dixie will need training and lots of it. Dixie is smart as a whip and needs lots of input so she learns all she needs to know. Dixie is used to being inside.
Are you looking for the dog of a lifetime? If so please get touch and we can take it from there.

Marley | Maltese cross Poodle | 8yrs | Mid North Coast | NSW Only Please
desexed ~ dental ~ vaccinated ~ microchipped ~ heartworm tested ~ wormed ~ flea treated ~ lifetime support ~ free consult with our vet ~ Adoption Fee $595 ~ Rehoming Body Number R251000076
Marley is the most beautiful girl who is super smart with a hint of a stubborn streak.
Marley can be a bit shy until she gets to know you but after that she is your best friend. Marley would suit being an only dog and not having to share her human's attention with any other canine.
One big stipulation, Marley cannot be around children, not even teenagers or being approached on walks by them. Marley is just not able to cope with children of any age (this will be discussed further with any successful applicant.)
Marley loves quiet on leash walks without the noise and bustle of the fast paced life. Marley has zero recall.
Marley loves a little game with toys or her human and will run around the backyard and will follow you the house being your shadow.
Marley is dominant with other dogs. Marley needs someone that will give her firm boundaries as well as consistency, time and attention.
Marley's ideal human would be home more often than not, she has some separation anxiety and would not suit a full-time worker.
Marley is housetrained and lets you know when she needs to go outside. Not good with cats, birds or other pocket pets. Marley is not for adoption outside NSW

Lulu | Senior Silky Terrier | 12yrs | Sydney Only Please
desexed ~ dental ~ vaccinated ~ microchipped ~ heartworm tested ~ wormed ~ flea treated ~ lifetime support ~ free consult with our vet ~ Adoption Fee $350 ~ Rehoming Body Number R251000076
Darling Lulu is ready for her new home and wants to meet you very soon. She's almost 13 now.
She is a divine older lady, soft and sweet. You never hear a peep out of her and she is no trouble with other dogs. Hasn't looked at my cats either. Her 'happy place' is on the lounge, snuggled up either with her blanket or with her foster buddies. She sleeps quietly on the bed at night and we'd love if someone would be able to give her all her favourite things; good food, warm cuddles and a garden to explore.
Adoption conditions: Lulu must absolutely have the company of a human and another elderly dog. She is easily stressed and does not do well on her own nor does she want to go out for adventures. This makes her unsuitable for units and parks. She needs a garden.
She needs a calm environment. When stressed (eg separated from her friends) she exhibits circling like she would have in the cage she used to live in, in her past life. A soothing voice and gentle pat will calm her.
No children or busy households please. SYDNEY ONLY PLEASE - Lulu has had a failed adoption trial far from home and her carer has requested Sydney only this time. An advantage for adopters would be experience with traumatised/puppy farm dogs.
Preference is being given to:
Retired people with another senior dog, closest to Sydney.

Pepe | Chihuahua X | Male | 1yr+ | Sydney | Available For Adoption
Desexed ~ vaccinated ~ microchipped ~ heartworm tested ~ wormed ~ flea treated ~ lifetime support ~ Adoption fee - $595 + free consult with our vet ~ Rehoming Body Number R251000076
Pepe loves life. He loves people and he loves a game.
Why is he still waiting? Well maybe it's because he is a very bouncy young man (just over a yr old) and because he'd prefer to be an only dog so he can have a massive toy collection all to himself.
He's not bad with other dogs, and plays long silly games with his foster buddies. It's just that sharing is not his strong point so we need a home where he can be King of his domain.
Take him for daily walks and he'll make friends and burn off a lot of energy. 💕
It may sound like he's a constant whirlwind, but he is the most cuddly and sweet doggy. Squishing himself into the smallest spots just to be near you for a snooze.
Pepe is crate trained and house trained. And about as big as a mini foxy. Please no cats or pocket pets. And please, kids over 10 only. (He is too rough for littlies and I can imagine him stealing all their things too!)

In answer to a few questions:
Pepe isn't suited to apartment living.
He is best with a yard to run in and lots of things to keep him occupied. Bored dogs become quite noisy and sometimes get into trouble by being destructive.
He is not a toy size Chihuahua, and is around 4kg.

Star | Silky (with a touch of something else) | 11yrs| Mid North Coast
desexed ~ dental ~ vaccinated ~ microchipped ~ heartworm tested ~ wormed ~ flea treated ~ lifetime support ~ free consult with our vet ~ Adoption Fee $350 ~ Rehoming Body Number R251000076
Well what can we say about this cheeky little bouncing bean. Nowhere near her her 11yrs.
Simply delightful and a real bright spark to have around. She can make your day just watching her toss and wrestle a toy. A toy collection in her new home is a must. She'll play with literally anything.
Star is best as a single velcro dog, even though she tolerates her foster buddies, it's all about human attention for her. Being strong willed and determined she will shove others out of the way to get to you. Ideally her new owner is home a lot, she's a bit lost without a person around.
Star is what we'd call 'mostly Silky'. There's a touch of something else but almost impossible to guess what exactly.
Please no cats, chooks or pocket pets. And kids over 10yrs please.
