About Jack
Introducing Jack, a curly-coated retriever cross kelpie, a perfect blend of energy, intelligence, and an abundance of affection. Jack has an athletic build encapsulated in a curly coat, and a loving spirit that gravitates towards everyone he meets.
A little shy when it comes to meeting other dogs, Jack takes his own sweet time to warm up to the canine companions in his life. However, with humans, it's quite the opposite. He’s a sweet and generous pup, offering all his love and trust to the people around him, showing them just how wonderful a friend he can be.
Jack isn't just a companion; he's a true friend, eagerly waiting to become a part of your family at his own pace. He values and thrives on understanding, patience, and most importantly, the freedom to explore relationships on his own terms - taking his time to trust and build a bond that lasts a lifetime.
While he's a gentle soul, Jack has a vivid streak of playfulness. Possessing energy to spare, he adores exercising and demands plenty of physical and mental stimulation. Exploring the neighbourhood on long strolls, or simply rolling in the grass in the backyard are some of his favourite activities. Jack would flourish in a home with an active lifestyle where his need for mental and physical exercise can be met.
So, if you're someone who loves the outdoors, has patience and a desire for a genuinely loyal, loving, and enjoyable canine friend, Jack could be a great addition to your family. Together, you will build a lifelong friendship built on trust, patience and countless adventures.
Adoption details
We are not open to walk ins, appointments by booking only. All households members must be present before we can adopt an animal out.
As our goal is to adopt animals out from the shelter into loving homes as fast as possible, multiple bookings may be made for the same animal.
We are not able to hold any animals for any reason.
As such, there is a possibility that the animal you may have found a forever home before your appointment. If this is the case we will inform you by phone call as soon as possible.
