Dogs & Puppies
We have dogs and puppies big and small, all breeds and personalities. Your new dog will require lots of company, exercise, time and training to ensure a long and happy life. Please choose well to ensure the right dog for you, and that you are right for the dog, as it will always need to be part of your family’s demographics. We reserve the right to sell any animal in the refuge to you, and terms and conditions of sale are in place to ensure the long term welfare of the animals.
Some of our terms and conditions mean you will need to bring ID, written approval from your landlord if renting, rates notice, and compatibility tests with other animals and family will be required. We may also want to do a property inspection prior to approving you to adopt. Make sure you know your local council regulations on dog ownership. We refer you to Local Law No 2 (Animal Management) 2011 in particular to fencing. "Dog owners are responsible for preventing their dogs from roaming and causing a nuisance. Suitable fenced enclosures are required to contain dogs on properties. The enclosure must be suitably constructed to prevent the animal from escaping".
http://www.sunshinecoast.qld.gov.au/sitePage.cfm?code=keeping-dogs
We may also need to do a check on your fences, vet references, and an interview process may be required for some of our animals.
Prices begin at around $200 which includes vaccination, micro-chipping, worming and de-sexing for grown-up dogs. Another $200 is required for a puppy which will be refunded when you bring the puppy back for de-sexing. Ownership will not legally transfer to you until the puppy is returned for de-sexing.
All the dogs and puppies you see below are currently staying with us at the Refuge. Please note that although our website is updated as soon as we adopt, there is a chance that the animal you may be interested in may have been adopted by the time you visit them on site. We cannot hold animals for you, so the sooner you visit us, the sooner you will have a wonderful friend to take home with you.
