On Hold
This is Stumpy! Stumpy is a senior with a heart of gold. After spending some time in the shelter, he's ready to embrace a brighter future in a loving home. Stumpy can be unsure of new people but will blossom with patience and care, and with new owners who are experienced with dogs. He does enjoy his daily walks, and absolutely adores food!
Stumpy is best suited to a quiet, adult-only household, and would thrive as the sole pet in his new home. He would appreciate a large, secure yard and would not be suited to apartment living as he can be a very loud boy!
If you're prepared to offer Stumpy the gentle guidance and affection he deserves, head to RSPCA Burwood East meet this wonderful soul!
You no longer need to submit an online application to adopt a dog, puppy, cat, kitten or small animal.
