​Rehoming service

Prior to rehoming, dogs and cats are desexed, lifetime registered, vaccinated and microchipped. They also leave the shelter with a collar and tag. The shelter has a wide range of dogs and cats for sale and all are temperament tested.

The shelter operates under a 'low euthanise' practice. Every attempt is made to rehome all animals suitable for adoption. Euthanising is a last resort and only if the dog or cat is assessed to be a danger to the community or has an illness that adversely affects its quality of life.
