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 | 10 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 NOW SUBSIDISED TO $450 ~ Rehoming Body Number R251000076
Our unknown breed little girl is just a happy pup. She is 10 months old and around 25kg so pretty much 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.

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 NOW SUBSIDISED TO $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.
She's not a huge fan of long walks, preferring a quick stroll and lots of carefree time in the garden.
Key points

Stanley | Maltese Cross Male | 9yrs | IN REHAB
|
New arrival.
Stanley is an unwell little dog. He'll be in rehab a while. He's already had his dental and very very concerning blood panel results which will be re-run in 4 weeks looking for improvement. UPDATE Going back in for a weigh and more blood testing. We're hoping for an improvement, even just a little bit would be great. UPDATE Yay! Great blood results. But it could be another 6 months before his body gets over his starvation. Mid North Coast foster care. |

Toby & Boy
These lovely lads came in together. So far I'm not sure that they need to be rehomed together. They have the occasional squabble and can't be fed near each other. As they settle in they've become less reliant on each other. Not copying each other as much. And almost independent.
Their temperaments are a little different. Toby is more a velcro dog and has a bit of separation anxiety which we're working on. Boy is softer and quieter.
Both are darings. But not suited with cats and pocket pets.
Both very underweight so decision time doesn't need to happen right now.
p.s. The piece missing from Boy's ear is actually 'fly-bite' (which they had a lot of) not an injury. The missing part will never grow back but hair will cover it eventually.
