Pets For Adoption

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. 
SSR sometimes allows interstate adoption if the successful applicant is willing to travel for a meet & greet, also if the dog is OK for a long drive. With this compromise we have had doggies go to Qld, Vic, SA, WA and ACT. 
Please note: Only very rarely do we have a dog who can be transported unaccompanied to their new home, you'll need to keep this in mind when applying. 
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.

Nancy
Meet Nancy! 

She's fun and loving and cuddly. She will be perfect for an empty nest, or maybe a match for a home with a lonely little dog who has nobody to play with. 

Her age of 8+ is an estimate only, we feel it's pretty accurate, but she acts like a dog much younger. Toys are her favourite, especially squeaky ones. 

She sleeps quietly in the bedroom at night and during the day she sits on the lounge. In between naps, she squeaks and plays with her toys. Often there's quite a collection there by bedtime.

​Occasionally her carer catches her - tummy in the air, wagging her tail and with a toy in her mouth. 

​​Nancy, strolled into her foster home without blinking an eye. She's confident and a bit of a stickybeak. Loves a walk too. 

If you are considering Nancy and feel you are a match, please fill in our adoption form. 


* Not suited to cats or pocket pets.
* No pools or dams please.
* Fully secured yard required.
​* Only children over 10 please.

Mavis needs a 'Tiny Town'! And do you have an itty bitty friend for her?

For such a small girl, she's got a lot of sass. 
We're sure that's how she survived the streets of Sydney as a stray. 

At first, we were careful when handling her, she was scared and a bit nippy especially with men. 

Nowadays she's much calmer around humans. She knows nobody is going to hurt her. 
After some decompression time, she was off to the vet for blood panels, heartworm test, desexing, dental and a full health check. She was such a good girl on the day.

She loves being picked up and carried around. Doesn't squiggle, just completely relaxes.   

Mavis can certainly move fast when she wants to. And does her beautiful Pomeranian twirls when she's happy. 

During her dental, Mavis lost 12 teeth, adding to her already missing ones, she now has just 8 left! 

​Mavis is not suited to third party transport.

SSR Forever Care Program

A special program for special needs dogs.
​Safe under our wing, these dogs get all they need and so much love from their Forever Carers. 
​
SSR has always had this safety net for dogs entering our care. Most of our rescue dogs have never seen a vet or it has been a long time in between visits. We take them on 'blind' to their health and their needs. As we say 'this is rescue' and we take it as it comes. 

The program protects the most vulnerable and delicate dogs that would otherwise have no where to go. We have been known to take a behaviourally challenged dog on from time to time too. 

We are always in need of sponsorship for our dogs.
​There is no minimum monthly donation that you need to donate. Just a regular monthly donation.
This helps cover some of the costs involved in keeping our Forever Program viable.
