Hi the staff here call me "Polly"

“Polly” is an awesome girl. She is very intelligent, eager to please and keen to learn so with the right amount of praise and encouragement, she will be a breeze to train. She is very fun-filled but at the same time, she is quite happy to just chill out at your feet.
She absolutely adores being around people so will need to go to a home where there is someone at home during the day. She dislikes being left alone for a long time and although she is not destructive, she will try her hardest to get out of where ever she is so that she can get to people.
We have managed this by having her in a crate in one of the offices during the day. She gets lots of walks and will quite happily get back into her crate without even being told. She feels the crate is her safe haven. She is so quiet in there that nine times out of ten you won’t even know she is in there.
She would be great around kids that are of the size to be able to play with her without being knocked over as she is very much a puppy when she plays.
She responds well to commands given by her handler and she is great with other dogs.
She has met a cat since she has been at the SPCA and she showed a fair amount of interest which is to be expected. She wasn’t quite sure what to make of it to begin with, so with an experienced person, she could integrate into a household with a confident cat quite nicely. A cat that will run from her would not be suitable for her as it is a dogs duty to chase something that runs.
She is a very affectionate girl and once she understands the rules and structure of the household she will make a fantastic addition to your clan as long as you are willing to make her part of your family.

Hi the staff here call me "Tenaya

I am a lovely big girl who is full of beans and just loves to have fun. I will need an experienced owner who will be firm but fair with me and who will put boundaries and structure in place and be consistent from the get go.
I am a very smart girl so I would very much like to go to obedience training where we can learn new things together. Once you find what motivates me, I will pick new things up extremely quickly.
I can go to a home with older dog savvy kids, and very confident cats.
I would love a home that will make me part of their family and take me with them on their exciting adventure through life.

Hi there, the staff here call me "Roxy"

I am a very sweet girl who is after an experienced, confident leader who will be firm but fair with me. My new owner will need to put rules and boundaries in place and be consistent from the beginning. I am a very intelligent girl who will pick new things up very quickly. I just love to have fun so if you make training exciting then I will learn even quicker. I would like a home where I will be made part of the family as I just love to be around people. I would be best suited to a active, routine lifestyle where I will get daily physical and mental stimulation to help keep my body and mind ticking over. I would like someone home with me part time initially, and although I cannot go to a home with cats due to my strong desire to chase them, I am suitable with children who are of the size to cope with my bounciness.

Hi my name is "Fleur"

I am a lovely wee girl who is extremely affectionate and loads of fun. I would like an owner that will be my leader, someone who will give me some guidance and structure and teach me right from wrong. I can be a little cheeky at times but it’s all in good fun. I am very intelligent, extremely eager to please and keen to learn and I would love to go to obedience training so that you and I can learn new and exciting things. Please make me part of your family. We could do so much together, running and swimming at the beach, bike riding, chasing sticks (that would be more for me than you) I can go to a home with bigger kids and dogs that will play with me and I can also live with confident dog savvy cats that will stand up to me. I would appreciate someone home with me at least part time, just until I have settled in.

Hi the staff here call me "Karma"

I am a beautiful young girl who has a habit of trying to push my luck a little too far at times. I can be very excitable and I tend to use my mouth to express this, which is something my new owner will need to train out of me very quickly as I will be a very big dog in no time at all. Obedience training is a must for me and although you may feel sorry for me when I whine, please don’t, this is one of my many tactics to distract you from the task at hand. I will require an experienced owner who will put firm but fair rules and boundaries in place, and be consistent from the very beginning. I would like full-time care initially until my training is completed because if left alone for too long I will find ways of occupying myself, using household items that you won’t want me playing with. I am suitable for an active household with teenage children who will help with my training. Unfortunately I am unable to go to a home with case as the urge to chase is too great.

Hi the staff here call me "Jezebell"

I am a very sweet affectionate girl who loves nothing more than to have a cuddle. I am extremely intelligent so I will require an owner who will give me daily physical and mental stimulation to keep my mind ticking over. Obedience training is a must for me.
I have never had any boundaries or structure in my life before coming to the SPCA so I am uncertain what is expected of me. I have never been taught how to behave properly when I am around other dogs so my reactions may appear nasty, but it’s just that I don’t know what’s right and wrong. My new leader will need to be experienced and confident, someone who will continue giving me positive socialisation around other dogs. I am suitable with teenagers who will help with my training and I am best suited to a home without any other animals, just until I have completed my training.

Hi the staff here call me "Lotto"

I am a sweet little man who as you can see by my missing limb has not had the greatest life. I can be a little distant at times and because I have never been taught right from wrong I tend to put my luck sometimes so I would like an experienced owner who will educate me on dog etiquette. I would love to go to obedience training so that we can learn new things together and having someone home with me part-time initially until I have settled in would benefit me a lot. I am very intelligent therefore I will pick things up quickly and as long as my new leader put boundaries in place and is consistent from day one then things should be fairly straight forward.

Hi my name is Lola.

I am a very happy, bouncy girl who just loves to have fun. As I am deaf I will require an experienced owner (preferable with deaf dog experience) as my training requirements are different to the rest of my doggy friends. I already know the commands sit and down through hand signals.
I get on great with other dogs, but due to my deafness I am best not re-homed with cats or rabbits. I will be fine with older dog savvy children. I’m always up for a good old play or just happy chilling with people. I will require daily mental and physical stimulation due to my active nature.

Hi there, the staff here call me "Snoopy"

I’m a happy go lucky young man, who loves nothing other then a good play with my soft toys. I’m after an experienced owner who is going to set me firm rules and boundaries. I will require high secure fencing as it’s in my nature to explore.
I will need daily mental and physical stimulation, to help focus my mind and burn off some energy. I will be fine with confident cats, if we have a proper intro and I will be fine with dog savvy children. I’m not suited as an outside only dog, as I’m a social butterfly who loves being part of the family.

Hi the staff here call me "Jasper"

I am a neat little guy, who is always up for a laugh. I am after an owner with a sense of humour but one who will also provide me with firm rules and boundaries, so I know what is expected of me. I will also benefit from obedience training.
I will require high secure fencing as “explorer” is my middle name.
I will need an experienced owner who will take me to obedience training and show me how to be a real dog.
I can be a little bit shy at times so my new owner will need to be patient and give me a boost of confidence.
I will require positive socialisation and someone home with me at least part time until I have settled. I can live with older calm dog savvy kids and cats and I am suitable with dogs of similar size.

Hi there, the staff here call me "Belle"

I am a very sweet wee girl who loves nothing more than having lots of cuddles. I absolutely adore being around people so I would like a home where there is someone to keep me company for most part of the day, at least until I have settled in. I would like my new forever home to have structure and routine, where there is someone who is patient and kind to me, someone who will put firm rules and boundaries in place and be consistent from day one.
I am extremely bright and although I will pick new things up quickly, I would love to go to obedience training where you and I can learn new and exciting things together. I am suitable with other dogs and older dog savvy kids who will play with me. And I am able to live with a confident cat.

Hi my name is "Bomber"

I am a very sweet boy who is quite chilled out when I want to be. I would benefit from an active owner who will make me part of their lifestyle and who will include me in family activities. I am not suited as an outside only dog.
My new owner will need to be firm but fair with me and I would like boundaries and rules put in place so I understand what is expected of me from the start.

I think we would both benefit from obedience training so that you and I can learn new and exciting this together. I will do fine with dog savvy children and confidence cats (as long as we meet properly). I will make a very fun and happy addiction to my new family.

I am very smart so I think obedience training would be good to help both of us learn lots of new things together.
I would like to be made part of your family so I would probably not be suitable as an outside only dog.
I can go to a home will other dogs and older dog savvy kids, and although I have not been around cats, I would probably be ok with a confident cat that will stand up to me.

I will need high secure fencing as I just love to explore. I will do fine in a home with dogs similar to my size but I don’t care too much for the big shaggy ones. I can live with confident cats and children 10 and up. I will benefit from obedience training. Due to boundless energy levels I will require daily mental and physical stimulation. I f my new owner supplies me with these things, in return I will give them endless amounts of love and fun.

Hi my name is Rosie.

I am an extremely affectionate young girl who would like a patient owner who will do right by me. I can be a little bit boisterous at times but I am still young so I just need to learn what is and is not acceptable. I would like to go to obedience training to help me to learn lots of different things and I would also like an owner who is home part time to begin with. I love being around people so I wouldn’t cope very well being left alone in the back yard. Please make me part of your family. I will require daily physical and mental stimulation and regular grooming is a must.
I am suitable with other dog and older dog savvy children who can cope with my activity level. I am also ok with very confident cats if I am introduced correctly.

Hi the staff here call me "Moe"

I am a very nice little man who has had very little training or socialisation prior to SPCA so I am very lost and confused right now. I would like an experienced owner who has the patience and knowledge to steer me in the right direction and show me that this world is not so bad after all. I will need someone home with me at least part-time until I have adjusted to your routine and I have settled a bit. I will not be suitable in a busy household as I will not cope well therefore a calm structured household is a must.
Once you have built up my confidence I can be a little bit cheeky so my new owner will need to put firm rules and boundaries in place and be consistent from day one. If you think you need to carry me around and pamper me then think again, this will only reinforce my undesirable behaviour. Please treat me like a dog.

I am a very smart girl and I would very much like to go to obedience training with you so that we can learn new and exciting things together. I can live with older calm kids who as younger ones would frighten me and I am suitable with other dogs and confident cats.

I will do fine in a home with dog savvy children, other dogs and confident cats. I am best suited to a family with an active lifestyle, as I am a real go getter and can get bored quite easily.
