Adopt a dog
Our "pound pooch" dogs are looking for homes!
Adopting a dog from the pound is a great way to help an animal in need. Our pound adoptions also have an excellent success-rate because each animal is fully assessed and given some training before it is advertised, to make sure it is suitable for residential homes.
Your checklist:
- Do you want to adopt?
- Are you in a position to give the dog the care and attention it needs?
- Do you have space for the dog to exercise?
How to enquire
Please contact the Animal Management Centre directly to discuss adoptions.
