About Tones
Meet Tones
Tones is a almost 6-months-old Mastiff x Ridgeback who is blossoming into a lovely, well-behaved family member. One of her unique features is her heterochromia, a condition where there’s an excess or lack of melanin in one eye, resulting in different coloured eyes. This doesn’t affect her vision in normal daylight hours, but it certainly adds to her uniqueness!
Crate training with Tones has been a journey filled with learning and patience. Initially, she woke up frequently at night, needing reassurance. However, we’ve discovered a comforting solution. By having Tones sleep on a mat in the carer’s room, alongside Molly, our resident dog, she now enjoys peaceful nights, comforted by her foster sister’s presence.
When away from home, Tones stays in her crate and has beautifully adjusted to this routine, demonstrating her intelligence and adaptability.
Given Tones is still a young pup and isn’t fully aware of her size, she would fit best in a family with children aged 8 and older. While she’s still learning to be cat-friendly, often chasing them if unsupervised, she’s showing progress.
Tones is an eager learner and has made significant strides in her training, able to sit on command most of the time, even without treats, and responding well to hand signals. Tones being deaf hasn't stopped her learning and enjoying life.
Every day with Tones is filled with new discoveries and delightful challenges. She will be a fantastic addition to any family, particularly one that appreciates the joys and responsibilities of raising a young dog. Tones flourishes in the company of other dogs, so a home with another canine for play and companionship would be ideal for her.
If you’re interested in adopting Tones, please complete the adoption application at the provided link. She’s eagerly waiting for a loving and permanent home, and your application could be the first step to welcoming this wonderful girl into your life.
Located in Melbourne, Tones is available for interstate adoption with transport costs at the adopter’s expense.

Adoption details
Hear No Evil's Adoption process:
Step 1: Begin by filling out the application form available at this link. https://service.sheltermanager.com/asmservice?account=vl2684&method=online_form_html&formid=48 After submitting your completed application, our team will review it to determine your eligibility to adopt.
Step 2: If your application meets our criteria, a member of our Administration Team will get in touch to talk about your application in more detail.
Step 3: Schedule a meet-and-greet session for the potential adoptive family, including any dogs you currently have, with the dog you're interested in adopting. This will typically happen at the same time as a yard inspection to verify the environment for safety and security concerns. For adoptions across state lines, where an in-person visit may not be feasible, we'll arrange a virtual introduction to the dog and its foster caregiver.
Step 4: After the adoption fee is paid, the dog, along with their belongings, veterinary paperwork, and records, will be turned over to you. The adopting family is responsible for the transportation costs, but Hear No Evil is available to help organize the dog’s travel plans.
Final Step: Following a 14-day adjustment period for the dog in its new home, we will process the transfer of microchip ownership to complete the adoption formally.
Please refer to the additional Terms & Conditions listed on the Adoption Form for more detailed information.
