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.

Fifi | Silky Terrier Cross | est 12yrs | Female | Sydney NSW |

PLEASE ADOPT ME!
Cheeky Fifi, she's such a bossy and loyal little old lady. An absolute delight, she will follow you everywhere with that waggy tail and big dark eyes. Fifi prefers to be a solo dog. She doesn't need anyone else, just her chosen human. She'd probably be alright with a chilled out senior male dog. Otherwise, if you're just seeking a doting companion, she's your girl. Fifi had a hard life before rescue. Left with uncomfortable dry-eye, undesexed and with spreading mammary tumours (which we had removed). She is also very arthritic - now treated with monthly Beransa shots and daily 4Cyte Forte gel in her food. Both help immensely. She is also using prescription Optimmune and chemist lubricant for her eyes. * Not suited to cats or pocket pets. * No pools or dams please. * Fully secured yard required. * Only children over 10 please. * Not suited to apartments. * Best as an only dog. |

Betty | Terrier cross | 12 months | Female | Mid North Coast NSW |
Betty is microchipped, vaccinated, wormed, flea/tick treated, desexed, heartworm negative and lifetime registered. Her adoption fee is $1500 including a 3 week trial, and comes with supplies, food and extras like collar, lead, harness etc. Lifetime return policy and 24/7 access to her carer via phone.
Betty is 12mths old and was born in care, her Mumma is Munchkin who ended up pregnant and in the the pound.
Munchkin had three healthy pups, Betty being first born and nicknamed 'The Golden Child' for obvious reasons, siblings Poppy (was 2nd born and white on colour with non shedding hair) Bruce (was 3rd born and black in colour with a non shedding coat)
Betty has been living in a quiet country town where not too much happens, the home she lives in is quiet with no children. So any new home will need to understand Betty will be nervous and it will be the first time she will have experienced new owners, a new environment and new experience will need to be slowing and steady. Betty is still very much in her puppy phase and that will most likely be until the age of 3yrs. So you must want a pup and go through the stages of growing pains of having a young dog. Toys are a must, as with all pups, this is a favourite past time, incl mini tennis balls to throw around.
Betty would love having another dog to play with as long as they are a similar size and weight. Betty has the longest legs and the thinnest body, almost like an Italian Greyhound. She is speedy but a lightweight.
Betty can be a bossy diva with other dogs, so a firm but friendly dog of the same size would be great to keep Betty company.
Betty would do well with someone willing to take her to some formal doggy classes so she can socialise and become the best doggy canine citizen possible.
Betty is smart, strong willed at times, selective hearing if she gets distracted, not trust worthy on recall, she knows basic commands and loves treats.
Betty has been raised on the best of food and has been given everything she needs. We would be hoping her adopter will be willing to take pet insurance out to save guard Betty should any expensive vet care be required, insurance can help cover that expense and afford her any care needed for her whole life.
.
Betty needs a home where her adopters will put the time and energy in to training Betty, showing her the outside world and all it has to offer at Betty's pace depending on how she is coping. Betty's owners will be rewarded with a happy, cheeky girl who loves her humans, and wants to spend her whole life (general life expectancy would be 12+yrs, so a long term commitment by her adopters will be needed).
Betty is hit and miss on the house training, in a new environment could have more than a few accidents, setting up a regular toileting routine will help get Betty pretty good on the house training quickly.
Betty is still in the chewing phase and so we need an owner who will still love her if she chews through a cord to the TV or find your favourite pair of shoes and thinks they are a chew toy. While we don't want her to do this, as with any pup, if the opportunity arises, patience becomes a virtue for her prospective owner.
Betty needs a home with a backyard that has so way to escape, no verandah's with gaps she could squeeze through.
Betty is not cat or pocket pet friendly
No children as Betty is not used to them and it may be considered if the children are 12+yrs and dog savvy.
No pools or dams (Betty is so slight normal pool fencing would not be enough to keep Betty out)
No apartments or units, Betty needs a safe area where she can burn off her energy and play at home outdoors.
Betty is crate trained even if it isn't her favourite place, she enjoys a lambs ear chew and an undisturbed nap when she has tired herself out running, learning and playing.
Betty will come with a harness that fits her perfectly, some toys her carer knows she loves, some treats and toys, a blanket and a few other items her carer wants to send her to her new forever home with.
Please consider Betty as a long term commitment and applicants need to give as much information as possible to help Betty's carer evaluate the home being offered to Betty

Her adoption fee is $800 including a 3 week trial, and comes with supplies, food and extras like collar, lead, harness etc. Lifetime return policy and 24/7 access to his carer via phone.
Chewie is a boy who has a zest for life, he may be 8yrs old but everything is exciting to Chewie as if it the first time he has ever experienced anything.
Food gets an excited tap dance
A walk and he is chomping at the bit to go
A car ride is fascinating
A friendly dog is met and he wants to play zoomies
A bird in the yard needs to be barked at.
Chewie's enthusiasm is second to none.
Things to know about Chewie
- he wants to be included in everything you do and will be your shadow
- Chewie has separation anxiety is is extremely vocal the whole time he is left alone
- Chewie may love walks but he has short stumpy legs and a barrel body so he isn't designed for long walks and tires soon enough.
- Chewie is house trained for the most part, when changing homes he new owners will need a regular pattern in taking Chewie outside until he gets used to his new environment
- Chewie is playful and loves to be chased and to play zoomies with other non dominant dogs. Chewie will need to meet any other dogs in an adopters home to ensure they are a personality match as Chewie is exuberant.
- Chewie loves nothing more than food and needs a non gulp bowl to help slow down him scoffing his food.
- Chewie is crate trained as needed
- Chewie would love to sleep on your bed or a bed in your room, he really wants to be with his humans
- Someone will need to be home more often than not and if left alone, being aware he will vocalise his displeasure of being left a home alone no matter if he has another dog for company or not.
- Chewie is full of life and is looking out for a home that can understand his vocal separation anxiety, have a yard for him to burn off his energy safely, a human that wants a shadow and a best friend who thinks everything is wonderful.

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.
